Hey guys, just wanted to say thanks for all the help getting me started in DiY. Here's my contribution
submitted over 10 years ago by igivenofux

I have created what my first recipe that I think is kickass. It is a banana cream pie flavor. I wanted to make this because one, there aren't any good banana flavors that I like and two, I don't see them very often. Here it is:

All TFA

4% Bavarian Cream

2% Sweet Cream

1.5 % Malted Milk

2% Graham Cracker Clear

3% Ripe Banana

It has been steeping for three days. So far it tastes delicious. I may have nailed it on my first attempt. Feedback is welcome

3% ripe banana.. Holy shit. Props to you for that!! I use .5%-1% max in most of my stuff and the banana is usually pretty strong.

Have you ever tried Mt Bakers Banana Cream pie?

First time using the flavor. I learned real quick in another mix that it is overpowering, but I like it in the bcp. I don't like dessert type flavors much because the custard/crust flavor is usually too dominant for my taste.

I'd definitely order it if you ever do orders from there. PRetty spot on banana cream pie flavor if i've ever had one. Heavy banana cream on the inhale and and a mixture with a little graham crust on the exhale.

I'll have to try this this recipe though.. I love myself some BCP. Have you tried it with lower banana ripe? I can see the creams/milk neutralizing it a bit, might try it at 1.5% and if not just up it.

I haven't. This is the first round and it seems to be quite good. Gonna see if I can be patient enough to let it steep a whole week.
