Capella Vanilla Custard V1 and Flavorwest Butter Pecan, particularly are so pungent, to the point that to me, they taste more like wet dog, Ive had to throw out the bottles. I dont think they had expired, as they were purchased only a month ago from a reputable vendor.
Is this heard of? Do some people simply have bad reaction to those flavor component?
I get this reaction to D/AP. Just can't stand any flavors that have them. They make me pretty nauseous. Most creams and dairies are pretty much unbearable. I've seen a few people with the same complaints. There are dozens of us.
I can't vape any e-liquids that have Diacetyl and other things like that, I just take 2-3 puffs, and I feel sick, almost about to puke, It might be just my case but every time this happens
FW butter pecan has no diketones.
Awesome, but do you have a link to their page that claims this? I cant seem to find anything on it.
TPA and Capella have info pages on their ingredients. Capella include thrid party testing certificates.
If you check on ELR and bullcity neither lists warnings for that flavor
BP doesn't have any and I don't think it's the AP or Diketones that you're disliking in VC, you probably just don't like the volatiles that make up custard. I loathe custard heavy juices, but I will rock every other Diketone loaded flavor in the world. Try using VBIC, Vanilla Swirl, TPA Banana Cream, Marshmallow for airy thickness, etc... All of these are loaded with Dikes and taste heavenly.
Im starting to think you're right. What is VBIC?
*edit, nm, Vanilla Bean Icecream. I should try this. Thx
I get this irreversible scarring of my lungs which is a pain in the ass. Just kidding :p but I feel like my lungs kick up a fuss with anything that isn't dike free. Could be a blessing in disguise. So I'm turning my attention to fruits and creams, maybe tobaccos.
Yes me. I have written about this before (some threads already).
After 5 puffs I am so sick that I can't get rid of the awful rancid burnt butter taste for about 24 hours. Everything tastes like it then. It's awful.
I can smell and taste trace amounts of it. Really like a drop of liquid with diacetyl in 30ml of fresh liquid and I can still taste it.
It sounds to me like you didn't let your mix breathe at all
You don't need to do this. This is bad advice
It's neither right or wrong sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't though
How long should I leave the mix with the lid off?
What does breathing the ejuice do? What exactly evaporates off?
Don't breathe your juice. Just let it age with the cap on.
How much vanilla custard did you use in your mix?
When I use Cap vanilla custard over 4% I find it needs to steep about a month .. many people here let it sit for even less time or shake and vape it.
agreed. you really need patience and time when dealing with custards. 4 weeks is a minimum for me. don't touch them beforehand. when I 1st got into diy I jumped straight into the custards as they are by far my favourite vape, but I was too eager. shake and vape one tank and learned right there and then that I had to gain some self control! 2 weeks in and I thought it was ready and it tasted pretty good. but went back after 4 weeks and the custard really came into its own! since then.......4 weeks before I ever crack the bottle open
