TFA Bavarian Cream DX
submitted about 9 years ago by Lambroghini

Prologue:

Hi guys! I'm going to be posting these in the future from a new account I made just for vape stuff, /u/ClaptonBurns, but until the the account is two days old my posts here are apparently auto-removed. So unless they free that account before then, I'll post these from here for now. I've got about 40 more of these that I plan to share with you all to start with, so without further ado, here is the first flavor review I'll be posting here:

Testing

Steep Time: 10 days; Percent Used: 5%; PG/VG 50/50; Nicotine: 0%

Setup

RDA: Twisted Messes Squared

Coil: Groove Fused Framed Corrugated Staple

(2x28SS316/36KA1::4x0.4N80::2xCorrugated0.4N80::1x40N80)

(5.5Wrap::DualCoils::0.12ohm)

Power: 65 Watts; Wicking: None (Wickless)

Mouthfeel

Semi-smooth. Moderate-light density. Slight cream texture. Very subtle chalkiness.

Throat Hit 1/10

Flavor Properties

Artificial Vanilla flavor with just a bit of cream. A little bit of vanilla spice note on exhale. Moderate flavor at this percentage/age time on the lower edge of the spectrum. Not eggy.

Relatable Flavors

Artificial vanilla pudding.

Off Flavors

Artificial vanilla taste, somewhat chemical. Might improve with longer aging.

Position In The Recipe

This flavor could work in the usual way a bavarian style cream would for a base, but would need a lot of help to boost it up. It’s diketone free but it lacks the same punch of some other creams/vanillas that would probably work better here.

Pairings

Vanillas, creams, fruit, chocolate, coffee, nuts etc. Could go with anything that you would normally pair with a vanilla pudding/american custard but there is probably a better choice than the DX version of this flavor.

Notes

Some have reported using this more as a texturizer, though I would probably go with something else for that purpose. If you are trying to avoid diketones, this could be a useful flavor, but it’s pretty weak as far as vanilla and cream flavors go. If you are trying to sub for the original TFA Bav. Cream you might be let down with this flavor. Not very strong but wouldn't go much higher than 5% due to the off flavor/chemical taste.

Thanks for the review. I bought a few DX flavours not really knowing what they were. How much difference is there taste wise between the DX and non DX concentrates.

Depends on the concentrate I would suppose. I haven't done single flavor testing on OG TFA Bav Cream but this one's not quite as good in the same recipe imo. Got this because BVC was out of stock when I ordered.

I fortunately didn't get that here. But anything with honey flavoring in it makes me gag. I just took a whiff of the bottle and I can see it getting bad at higher percentages. Nothing was worse than my very first order though. I ordered a bottle of TFA cheesecake on mistake (I mixed up which one not to order), and it leaked in transit. All my flavors were covered in vom stench. Fortunately only a couple were affected as the others were in separate baggies. I've been saving it in a deep dark drawer from some future prankage.

Haha yep. Huge mistake. I could smell it on the mailman before he rang the bell.

I actually like 1-2% cheesecake on top of 6-7% cheesecake graham crust makes it actually taste like a cheese cake. Otherwise there isn't enough cheese flavor.

my notes on this just say: gross, may need a longer steep but I doubt it. I used 6%.

Can't recall exactly how it tasted though.
