Weekly 'Suggest a Recipe for my Flavors' Thread - Week of April 21, 2017
submitted over 8 years ago by AutoModerator

Got a bunch of flavors but not sure how to make them work together? Post your list here, and our team of semi-professional mixologists will make suggestions for you! If you are impatient and want to do this on your own, here are a couple of good links:

  • /u/daath has a nice website that has this functionality, but you will need to register to make it work. It is not very intuitive but if you work with it you can input your flavors and get a list of recipes that you can make. IMO this is the better site if you have the patience to make it work for you. Edit2: to get this to work, first set up an account. Then add your flavors to the stash (under my page / my flavor stash). hit save. Then go back to the front page and click the link next to the search field, "Search by flavor stash". You can select a couple of your flavors and recipes that have those will pop up.
  • This site has a nice big search button with just what you're looking for.

Happy Mixing!

Hey guys, FA Soho at 10-15% is my ADV and I love it very much. My friend gave me some random flavors he had and I was wondering what recipes I could make with them? And anything that you think would mix well with FA Soho would be cool to try out. I also love cold vapes with koolada/polar blast.

FA Soho

TFA cheesecake graham crust

TFA hazelnut

TFA hazelnut praline

TFA irish cream

TFA fudge brownie

TFA gingerbread

TFA rice crunches

TFA frosted donut

TFA tiramisu

TFA berry crunch

TFA apple granny smith

TFA gummy candy

TFA black cherry

FA honey

TFA honey

TFA watermelon

TFA apple candy

TFA plum

TFA cubano

TFA musk

TFA holiday spice

TFA black sesame seed

TFA koolada

LA mint chocolate chip

FA nut mix

FA polar blast

FA MTS vape wizard

It looks like your friend gave you flavours he did not enjoy or did not know how to mix well.

You could try:

FA Soho 8%

FA Hut Mix 0.5%

FA Honey 0.2%

It'll be a nutty (walnut, hazelnut and almond) and sweet (honey) tobacco. Play around with the percentages as my suggestion is just a starting point.

You could even add a smidgen of TFA Black Cherry 0.5-1.5% to get a subtle cherry note.

Sweet! This sounds really cool too, can't wait to try mixing this and see what it's like. My friend certainly did that later, he ordered a bunch of flavors without knowing how to mix them haha. Thanks again

Watermelon Gummies: TFA Gummy Candy 1.5%, TFA Koolada 0.25%, TFA Watermelon 6%.

Could even add TFA Apple Candy to bolster the candy note

by ID10-Tover 8 years agoWinner of the 2nd DIYorDIE World Mixing Championship

Definitely. /u/fackyuu add 1% TFA Apple Candy to that, so 6% Watermelon, 1.5% Gummy Candy, 1% Apple Candy, and 0.25% Koolada.

Maybe. It kinda depends. What kind of equipment are you using? I just remembered that with Gummy Candy it makes a big difference how much heat and power you're throwing at it. MTL vapers can go much higher than the 1.5% suggested and have to in order to get the same effect, but if you've got some kind of super-sub ohm build too much is going to taste like burning plastic. In the middle 1.5% is going to be just right to get some gummy texture without it being gross.

Got some new stuff recently, looking to get a hint for percentages with these:

TFA key lime
INW lime
INW biscuit
FW yellow cake
TFA bavarian cream
TFA vanilla bean ice cream
CAP vanilla cupcake
FA merangay
TFA dairy milk

I'm guessing I can make lime cake, lime cookie or lime milk. Point is I fucking love lime

5 points
 
by PerennialPhilosopherover 8 years ago

TFA key lime 2%

INW lime 0.5%

TFA Bavarian cream 2%

TFA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream 2%

FA merengue 1%

This should be tasty, but I've never used these lime flavors so percentages may need some adjustments, I based them on flavor reviews. I would start here.

You're missing some things for all of the Key Lime Pie recipes that I'm aware of but with a few substitutions I think you could make a pretty tasty one. Try 3.5% Key Lime, 2% Bavarian Cream, 2% VBIC, 1.25% Biscuit, 1% Meringue. This would be much easier/better if you had some TFA Cheesecake Graham Crust.

For a very simple lime vanilla cream, try 1% INW Lime + 4% VBIC.

That lime cake idea might be good, try 3% FW Yellow Cake, 2% Vanilla Cupcake, 0.5% Biscuit, 2% VBIC, 1.5% Meringue, 3.5% Key Lime.

Or the Lime Cookie: 0.75% INW Lime, 1% Biscuit, 1% Yellow Cake, 1% Meringue.

Well, why didn't you say so?! Is it TFA Graham Cracker Clear, CAP Graham Cracker, or TFA Graham Cracker (not clear)?

What have you tried so far?

I've tried a strawberry cream but I'm not getting the ratios right. Also a key lime pie, but that didn't round out right as well.

How long to steep?

Two weeks is ideal

2 points
 
by ID10-Tover 8 years agoWinner of the 2nd DIYorDIE World Mixing Championship

As /u/PerennialPhilosopher pointed out, 2 weeks is ideal, but it's not bad as a shake and vape. Go ahead and try some, then put the rest away and observe how it changes.

Also try Fizzmustard's famous Nana Cream Clone.

Looks like you're already planning on making /u/exclusivegirl's Green Tea Kit Kat? Hope you enjoy it!

Nice and simple, even I can't mess that up. God bless you!

by PerennialPhilosopherover 8 years ago

If you like it feel free to add small amounts of other cream flavors until you find some good combos! I'd start with the cap VBIC at 2% and drop the VC to 3% or swap those two. Now you've got three versions

I am asumming that the flavorings are The Flavour Apprentice. Usually it's shortened by TFA or TPA, FA stands for Flavorart. Not trying to be rude or anything just want to help out it would be a shame if someone suggested a recipe with the wrong flavorings in mind.

Now for the suggestion. Try a base with

  • 1.5% Bavarian Cream
  • 2% Whipped Cream

Then add your fruit. Maybe 5% Juicy Peach or 5% Blueberry.

Ya you are right my bad somewhat new to mixing, will edit that. That mix doesn't sound too bad with the blueberry might give that a go thanks

2 points
 
by ID10-Tover 8 years agoWinner of the 2nd DIYorDIE World Mixing Championship

Steep whatever you make with Oldguynothumbs's suggestion for 10 to 14 days. Do that with everything with TFA Whipped Cream in it. It's an OK shake and vapeable ingredient, not nasty or anything like that at a lower %, but if you give it a long steep it's like MAGIC how great it is. Don't believe me? Try it fresh first, take some notes, then come back and try it again after a steep for comparison.

i'm wondering about a potential combo of a few flavors, and if anyone has had any experience with them. mainly fa fuji, tfa honey suckle and cap's vanilla whipped cream? i did several searches here, on ATF and ELR and aside from a handful of placid tributes there aren't many recorded fuji/honeysuckle combo recipes out there. i'm curious if it would work out, about percentages, and if anyone else has experimented with this. i'd think a 1% or lower on the honeysuckle to keep the floral aspect at bay, and let fuji be the star, but idk?

1 points
 
by ID10-Tover 8 years agoWinner of the 2nd DIYorDIE World Mixing Championship

Fuji 3%, Honeysuckle 2%, Fuji would be the star. Vanilla Whipped Cream 1% added to that should give you some flavor blending and mouthfeel benefits as well as helping to tone down the honeysuckle a bit, but without too much vanilla cream flavor.

2 points
 
by bhamcatmaybeover 8 years ago

awesome, thanks- i'm gonna give it a try. ever since longing i've been on that honeysuckle train. also recently tried fuji in both kocanada's green cream and NCM's apple bacco and i'm fucken feelin' it. i don't mind if the combo comes out crappy, i just need to try it regardless.
