FW Fruity Flakes

submitted over 8 years ago by mlNikon

Setup: Narda Clone, Single coil 26g Kanthal @.7 ohms. 25W Power, Half wicked with Native Wicks Platinum Blend

Testing: FW Fruity Flakes @ 5%. 70/30 VG/PG, steeped 9 days.

Flavor Description: Sweet, grainy pledge. I get some orange notes in this flavor as well but the chemical lemon is just too overpowering to be sure

Off-flavors: Lemon scented furniture polish

Throat Hit: It is a little stingy on the throat but you could have guessed that by the lemon and the dryness from the cereal note.

Uses & Pairings: I would put this in one of those fragrance warmers in the kitchen!

Notes: I suppose some people may like this. It does have some sweet graininess to it but imo fw fruit rings is so much better. Perhaps I used it at too high of a percentage.

People seem to enjoy it? I keep meaning to pick it up in order to try /u/runtdastardly's acclaimed Bedrocket, even though it is on the fructose list and I shouldn't.

To me it is straight up Fruity Pebbles. Only a little offensive off taste (at least in the context of all the fruity cereals). Certainly not ground-breaking, but it is near the top of my list. 2% goes a long way. Needs a little help with the "grainy" aspect. I will share my simple recipe soon.

When I was still buying juice, a local B&M had their house line. One was called "wake and vape". I kept it in my rotation for a while. One of the first juices that I tried to clone. I gave up. Fast forward a year. Then after picking up FF, I realized that was it, prob standalone, most certainly with sweetener.

Runt's Bedrocket is awesome. I love FW Fruity Flakes though. I think I'll be dropping a recipe with it for the March thread. Fructose be damned, it's spot on Fruity Pebbles! ;)

Edit: add a touch of a berry flavor and this one really rounds out.

I could be using it way too high here of course.

Bedrocket has it at 4%, sounds like you just found a flavor that doesn't float your goat.

Mix up that bedrocket. That recipe made it to my 240ml club.

I need to move that up higher on my list of things to try, apparently.

I think this might be the flavor used in Kilo Cereal milk, but at a very low percentage and not the only fruit cereal flavor.

Probably somewhere around .5-1%

I like this stuff but I can't taste lemon like so many others can. It's just not super apparent to me unless i'm vaping something explicitly lemon flavored. it does taste like something is too strong in it, though. couldn't put my finger on it.

This flavor was my savior in creating a great Fruity Pebbles recipe. I had tried TFA Fruit Circles and FW Fruit Rings to try and get a Pebbles flavor out of them but kept getting the overbearing lemon pledge taste.

With this flavor, the lemon is there, but it's not as prominent and the lemon tones down and steeps out nicely to create a very balanced and much better tasting Fruity Pebbles flavor.

TL;DR:

If you're looking for a Pebbles flavor, this one is it.
