Weekly 'Suggest a Recipe for my Flavors' Thread - Week of May 12, 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!

FA and TFA are different brands, did you mean TFA?

by dom1ngaover 8 years ago

The problem is that some companies label TFA/TPA flavour concentrates as "FA" meaning "Flavor Apprentice" :\ I strongly don't like it as it can confuse beginners

I have one bottle labeled that way and it confused me. And I knew it was TFA.

Do you like rich, sweet custards? Try 6% CAP Vanilla Custard, 3% TFA Vanilla Swirl, 1% TFA Brown Sugar. Steep for 4 weeks.

For something you don't have to wait quite as long to enjoy, try 6% Strawberry Ripe, 3% Sweet Tangerine, 3% Vanilla Swirl, 2% CAP Vanilla Custard. Steep for 2 weeks.

Both sound awesome. I'll try making them both tomorrow thank you!

Hey dude,

thanks again for the suggestion, just thought I'd post feedback in case you were interested, although I'm not the best at providing flavor notes. Obviously the rich sweet hasn't finished steeping yet but the strawberry/tangerine recipe...

It tasted very much like a very light milkshake, the strawberry and tangerine didn't come through very strongly unfortunately, but it was still a very pleasant, sweet creamy texture and taste to it with a very minimal throat hit.

Looking forward to trying the rich cream one next weekend.

Thanks for the feedback! Vanilla Swirl stomps on fruit as it steeps. If you don't have more flavors now, try that one again but leave out the custard completely, and only give it three days instead of two weeks

I am looking for some fruity/drink recipes. I know my fruits are limited at the moment though. I also want to put my Koolada to use. I've tried the nana cream clone. Also can you suggest me your favorite strawberry milk that I can make? Not a strawberries and cream though. I like the milk ones a bit better. I have also yet to try mustard milk. I have God Milk steeping, but want to try a few more.

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

Have you tried this strawberry milk?

Or this Pink Lemonade?

You could add 0.5% Koolada to either of those.

2 points
 
by Severian71over 8 years ago

Yeah, I think LA Lemonade and FA Lemon Sicily in about those amounts is a pretty good base, especially with berries. I've made Backwoods Lemonade a couple of times recently, and really liked it. Would have suggested it if Forest Fruit were in the list.

Sorry for the rather long list, the stash has built up a bit over the months. I'm open to most flavor profiles, I enjoy fruits/creams the most but I wouldn't mind venturing into the realm of bakeries/custards. I have tried most of the "beginner recipes" listed on the sidebar if that is helpful in narrowing things down. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Thanks for the suggestion, I haven't gotten much use out of my blueberry so I'll try and mix some of this up tonight... I'll see if any of my local vendors carry Bilberry. Is there a steep time you would recommend?

This you could probably shake and vape but maybe a week or two to let the creams come out.

I've tried the recipes from the my first order flavors (at least the ones I had ingredients for). This would include the milks (mustard milk, god milk, etc) both lemonades and Wapple! Edit: Just realized you were asking what I liked most! Berries and cream are my favorite flavor profile to date, with plain fruit mixes being a close second, such as Strawberry Kiwi and Wapple.

Try: 7% TFA Banana Nut Bread, 3% TFA Banana Cream, 3% TFA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream. Shake and vape but better with steeping.

And: 2% TFA Honeydew, 3% TFA Key Lime, 2% TFA Whipped Cream. Steep for two weeks.

And: 6% TFA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, 1.75% TFA Pineapple, 2.5% TFA Dragonfruit, 2% TFA Marshmallow. You can shake and vape this but it will be better after a steep. You can swap the Marshmallow for Orange Cream but that will need to steep for two weeks.

> have anything weird you'd like someone to try?

Sure. Have you done anything with that TFA Taro yet? I'm thinking make a 10% dilution and then use that dilution at 0.2% with 2% TFA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, 2% FA Cream Fresh, 1.5% FA Vienna Cream, and 1% FA Meringue, steep for a week or so, Taro Ice Cream.

Couldn't help but notice that you have INW Grapes and TFA Peanut Butter. You could always check out /r/GooberGrapeVape for some ideas.

2 points
 
by Lulzorrover 8 years ago

haven't even made the dilution yet.

Yeah, i'm subbed i just don't really have anything to add. also grapes just ran out because i can't stop making grack juice. I still think a very, very tiny bit of taro could improve the peanut butter though.

> because i can't stop making grack juice

It happens to the best of us.

You want to try something weird, I'm thinking that Taro is where it's at. I don't think it's possible to use it without the dilution, though, unless you plan on making a very large bottle of something, which I wouldn't advise for experimenting. Ice cream was the first thing that came to mind but Taro Boba is also a thing and I think you could start very simple with that, maybe 4% TFA Whipped Cream + 0.02% Taro + a two-week steep. I wonder whether a small (1 to 2%) amount of TFA Peanut Butter might fit in there to highlight the peanut buttery aspect of Taro over the more prominent raw potatoish flavor that it has.

I'm currently working on a weird thing, a clone of Milk of the Poppy by Blue Dot Vapors. I'm convinced the ingredients to that are all CAP: Dragonfruit, Sweet Strawberry, Sweet Tangerine, and Vanilla Custard V2. It's really tasty yet unusual stuff and you could try something similar with TFA Dragonfruit and Vanilla Custard V1. Something like: 3% Dragonfruit, 3% Sweet Strawberry, 1% Sweet Tangerine, 5% VC. Or try replacing either the Dragonfruit or the Sweet Strawberry with your Sweet Mango and make a mango custard or mango-strawberry custardy thing.

I recommend trying just one of them first, or better yet, trying TFA PB all by itself, to make sure you even like it. Also I see people using it at a variety of different concentrations which might be differences in the way they vape or it might be sensitivity to the flavor. Try it at 3, 5, and 8%. I really need it at 5 to 6% to get strong, clear PB flavor from it. You might find you like it lower than those suggested %s. Fair warning, it's horribly dry, but that's what those creams are for.

Thanks for the help last week ID10-T, I whipped up all of those recipes you gave me and they were all good, accept I do feel I may need a new peach. I have evrything steeping some more and was looking to make a simple vanilla custard/custard I can use as is or throw different things into easily, so If any of you guys have a good custard base or recipe with my creams and custard I would really appreciate it. Here are my creams, TFA - Bavarian Cream Cap -Vanilla custard v1 TFA - Vanilla swirl FA - Cream fresh TFA - Cheescake (graham crust) CAP - Butter cream CAP - Horchata

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

4 to 6% CAP Vanilla Custard is really the only custard base you need. Those other creamy things might be good with it as well, just depends on what else you plan on mixing with it.

Did the peach turn out harsh for you?

2 points
 
by Ragged_But_Rightover 8 years ago

Yeah, and a little perfumey. The loal B&M that I have gotten peach stuff from before and liked, I found out use only FA flavors, so I am thinking of getting their peaches, were you recomending FLV peach?

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

I don't have a problem with peaches personally, but I see FLV recommended a lot by people who do, to people who do. But if the place you got Peach juice from before only uses FA, that might be a better option for you. Probably get both FA Peach and White Peach and test them both to see which one tastes like the peach you like.

CAP Sweet Tangerine + FW Blood Orange + some kind of tropical fruit

CAP Sweet Tangerine + some kind of stone fruit + some kind of bakery stuff

FW Blood Orange + creamy stuff

FA Lime Tahiti - is that distilled or cold-pressed?

FA Lemon Sicily + cookie or biscuit flavors

FA Sicilian Mix + I have not figured out what the heck to do with this yet but I'm thinking maybe some creamy but not too heavy vanilla like INW Shisha or TFA Vanilla Swirl

FA Madagascar Vanilla + some bakery things

TFA Vanilla Bourbon + custard or ice cream or bavarian cream

TFA Double Chocolate Clear + sweetener + peanut butter + something creamy

2 points
 
by kyb0tover 8 years ago

CAP Sweet Tangerine + Blood Orange + like CAP Golden Pineapple or some Mango?

The Madagascar Vanilla and Vanilla Bourbon, are they like a more authentic vanilla? Like in place of a Vanilla Swirl or VBIC and add in creamy flavors like Fresh Cream or CAP butter cream?

FA Lime Tahiti - not sure honestly, I'd have to check when I get home. EDIT - it's Cold Pressed

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

Yes - 3% Blood Orange + 1.5% CAP Sweet Tangerine + your preferred tropical fruit at your preferred % for something like a tropical orange juice. A really low% of some kind of cream or marshmallow might help with the mouthfeel there, too.

Madagascar Vanilla is very thin and vanilla extracty and perfect for bakery things where you don't want to affect the texture but just want to add some vanilla flavor. Vanilla Bourbon is similar but bolder and does have some creaminess to it. It's not as sweet and fluffy as Vanilla Swirl and nowhere near as thick and heavy as VBIC. Perfect for when you want to build your own vanilla cream mixing cream + vanilla because one of the creamier vanillas just isn't doing it for ya. If you see a recipe with Holy Vanilla, it's your best bet as a substitute.

Cold Pressed Lime use where you want straight up lime juice. That is a great flavor but a pain in the ass to use because it's hard (for me at least) to know going in how it's going to react with a steep. So lots of experimenting involved. Unless you just want to use it to make a small batch of an all-fruit shake and vape limey thing.

FW Blood Orange and VBIC or Vanilla Swirl for like a creamsicle?

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

Yes. Some Sweet Tangerine wouldn't hurt that either. Something like 2.5% Blood Orange to 1% Sweet Tangerine, with both VBIC and Vanilla Swirl. Prime example:

https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/1430#dreamsicle_v_perfected_for_real_this_time_by_vurve

Here's one with the tangerine on top and blood orange backing it up, instead of the other way around. Looks tasty.

TPA banana cream

CAP juicy peach

TPA mango

CAP orange creamsicle

CAP peaches and cream

CAP French vanilla

I'm relatively new to DIY, by which I mean I have been mixing for a couple of weeks but I haven't had a whole lot of luck concocting a decent recipe by myself.

Can anyone make a recommendation?

I do have some additional flavours in the post, but what can be made of what I have?

So far I've been mixing at high VG, but I do have some PG to hand.

Edit: my new flavours will be....

CAP marshmallow

CAP Graham cracker v2

CAP buttercream

CAP grape

CAP yellow peach

CAP sweet cream

Try CAP Juicy Peach by itself at 4%. If it doesn't tear your throat up, you can have some fun with that one.

CAP Juicy Peach 3% + CAP Hibiscus 2%

CAP Juicy Peach 3% + TFA Banana Cream 3%

CAP Juicy Peach 3% + TFA Bavarian Cream 4%

CAP Juicy Peach 3% + CAP Hibiscus 2% + TFA Mango 2%

Also Try CAP Peaches & Cream 4% + CAP Hibiscus 2% + CAP French Vanilla 2%

CAP Orange Creamsicle 4% + CAP French Vanilla 2% + TFA Mango 2%

CAP French Vanilla 2% + TFA Banana Cream 3.5% + TFA Bavarian Cream 1.5% + TFA Mango 1.5%

Cheers, dude!

I think I've been far too generous in my percentages in previous mixes. They have been sickly sweet.

Are your percentages based on experience with these flavours, or is there a general rule to percentage?

Going to try a couple of these tonight. I have finally braved making a juice with the hibiscus (no other flavours) and it's lovely.

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

Experience in the first four and the last one; Peaches & Cream and Orange Creamsicle are two flavors I've never tried but that's the %s I've seen them used by people who used their other flavors reasonably.

CAP Hibiscus is a great flavor!

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

/u/Coop34 "stole" that Kentucky Bourbon + Toasted Marshmallow combination from me. One of my many mixing missions has been to find something to mix with it that is even better than FA Kiwi in order to "steal" it back from him, but so far my attempts fallen way short.

The best KB + TM thing I've tried that wasn't Kiwi Bourbon wasn't even one of my attempts, it was /u/taclite's Bourbon Ice Cream. All TFA: 8% VBIC, 3% KB, 2% TM, 1% Brown Sugar. You already have all the stuff so you should definitely make that. Steep it for a month. It's worth the wait.

I'm going to warn you against the INW Raspberry because I've tried something like that and it did not work. It's too floral of a raspberry for that, though another raspberry might work. Also against the Lemon Sicily, because that just plain doesn't sound good, to me anyway. I haven't tried something like Custard Pi yet but I don't see why not. Try something like 2% each Custard Pi, Kentucky Bourbon, and Toasted Marshmallow for starters. Possibly adding a very small (like 0.25%) amount of Brown Sugar could give you something like a creme brulee effect.

I'm taking your word (as the Kiwi Bourbon is a winner) and mixed up a 20ml of Bourbon Ice Cream ... now to wait at least 21 days before I see it again :)

I would make it 28 if I were you; there is a noticeable improvement with that extra week.

Also, mixed up two 10mls - one of 2/2/2 CPi/KB/TM and one 2/2/2/0.25 of CPi/KB/TM/BS the other day - was planning on giving them a 4 day steep before testing them and then daily to see how they go

Followup questions .. Can I use by shiny new Holy Vanilla in this? For strawberry - TPA strawberry or Ripe or both? At what percentages? Thanks. I'm not a tinkerer, just like things to work.

Yes, you can use Holy Vanilla for this! On the strawberries, if those are the only two you have, then both.

Strawberry Cheesecake: CAP NY Cheesecake 4%, TFA Cheesecake Graham Crust 3%, FA Cream Fresh 1%, TFA Strawberry Ripe 4%, TFA Strawberry 3%.

Vanilla Bean Cheesecake: CAP NY Cheesecake 4%, TFA Cheesecake Graham Crust 3%, TFA VBIC 3%, DIYFS Holy Vanilla 1.5%, CAP Sugar Cookie 1%, TFA Bavarian Cream 2%.
