FA raspberry to raspberry sweet

submitted almost 9 years ago by xbungalow

I'm struggling to blend these two together. Who's used these and has come up with a good ratio for the two? I'm really struggling create a good raspberry flavor in general actually. I've been trying FA raspberry at 2-4% and raspberry sweet at 1-3%. Mixing a little TPA strawberry to brighten the raspberry and still can't get it where I want it.

TFA Raspberry Sweet is fairly weak, try a 2:1 ratio. INW Raspberry matches it perfectly, FA Raspberry is pretty good too. CAP Raspberry is terrible, never tried TFA plain raspberry.

I do have FW raspberry but I don't think it's worth playing with.

Keep seeing inw raspberry getting a good word, I'll have to grab that one

I love INW Raspberry. It has a floral note right away but that dies away with the steep. I use it at around 1% on average but people use it lower than that. Use FA Fuji to give it some character at around 0.5%

Does the Fuji make it apple-y tho? Or just adds dimension? I'm looking to create a realistic fresh picked strawberry.

INW Raspberry is lovely. My favorite of the ones I've tried. (can't stand TFA Sweet Raspberry. FA is good)

TFA raspberry is not that bad, has a slight artificial taste to it, but goes well with some creams. Has a nice slightly thick sweetness to it. I think menage a trois from ruthless uses TFA raspberry

Yup. This. 2:1 is a decent ratio to start with.

Recently got a fairly good raspberry mix.

INW Raspberry (Malina) : 1%

TFA Sweet Raspberry : 5%

FA Forest Mix : 1%

Add a few drops of sweetener according to your tastes.

Malina?.. It's a russian word, I thought INW is a japanese company.

I've tried the following raspberries:

-Raspberry (FLV);

-Raspberry (INW);

-Raspberry (SC - VZ) [Super Concentrated - vapor zone];

-Raspberry (sweet) (TPA);

-Raspberry (VG) (RF);

-Raspberry v2 (CAP);

-Razzleberry (FW);

-Blue raspberry slush (OSDIY); and

-Berryl (Raspberry) (FA).

The ones I find myself using consistently are FA's, FLV's and INW's. I know people rant and rave about using less than 1% overall with INW raspberry, but I'm using 1.5-2% more often than not, depending on goal.

FLV's raspberry is perhaps the best smelling out of the bottle (that and FW's razzleberry), and in my opinion is the most 'natural' raspberry flavour I own.

I want to tell you what my raspberry base is, but to be quite honest I usually just wing it for each new recipe (rasp cheesecake, rasp lime, rasp peach, rasp vanilla... lol this list is exhausting!) and tweak the overall mixture each time. I am going to go home and mix a straight raspberry flavour, and this is what I'm going to mix:

-Raspberry (INW) - 1.75%

-Berryl (Raspberry) (FA) - 2.5%

-Raspberry (FLV) - 3%

-Harvest berry (CAP) - 1.5%

-Lime Tahiti (FA) - .2% (looking for about a drop/10ml here).

Total flavour%: 8.95

I will let you know how this whips up!

Edit: I am just getting my hands on both the OSDIY and the SC-VZ raspberry flavours, so more work is necessary there.

Edit2: This smells incredible! Reminiscent of a flavour I used to buy when I started vaping (eVo I think?). I always made a V2 with the blue raspberry slush at 1.5% (added to overall mixture).

INW Raspberry is super realistic but also insanely strong.

Throw 0.2 into that mix and see how it works.

These three are the best raspberry flavors imo.
