What to add for moisture and smoothness

submitted almost 11 years ago by venemousMixologist

Trying to replicate a mouth feel that I've found in a couple commercial liquids (Vapor Hut VanHazin and Sin-a-Bon specifically). They are very moist feeling and really, really smooth.

I think I remember reading a small amount of saline solution for the moisture, but the smoothness eludes me.

Where do you buy smooth from? Is it better than mts?

It's a clone. Triacetin-based. TFA.

I've seen smooth sold on bull city vapor's site. I ordered the other day and it was sold out, though.

I had to double-check what subreddit this was posted in. Could take on a very different meaning if it were elsewhere ...

Certain flavoring like marshmallow will add a moistness to juice

I'm pretty new to DIYing it and every other post I see for advice also consists of throwing marshmallow into it. Gunna have to bulk up on that shit.

Does Capella do the job or is it strictly TFA?

Which marshmallow is best

Not sure, have some TFA laying around but still haven't experimented with it yet. This is a pretty old post, should ask on a more recent post to get someone who would know the difference to see.

Ethyl Maltol ("cotton candy flavor") has a smoothing/moistening effect at low % (around 1%) as well as adding a slight sweetness....but can mute flavors at higher %s
