Have you seen this -> FOTW - Sweeteners ?

Or this -> Noted ep48 - Sweeteners ?

Have you tried stevia? Monk fruit extract? Xylitol? They're wick-friendly. Although honestly, I've only ever had one recipe that I felt called for sweetener. (Based on something IRL that had sugar as a main ingredient.)

I like capella super sweet. Don't have to use a ton either.

Depends on the mix. But either TFA Cotton Candy or CAP Super Sweet

I think EM gives the illusion of sweetener without actual sugar lips

Yep. I use EM when I want a little sweetness but not over the top. Sucralose for balls to the wall sweetness.

Personal opinion but I think CAP Super Sweet blows ass. TFA Sweetener and Ricks Sugar Daddy are much kinder to my wicks.

Right now i'm using Sugar Daddy's sweetener. It mutes the fuck out of everything but it is noticeably sweeter without having that disgusting edge sucralose has. On the back of the hand it just tastes like straight up sugar.

I use Sugar daddy, too. I also like his vanilla sweetener. I haven't had a problem with muting, but I use sweeteners VERY sparingly. I used to love the commercial juices with all that crazy sweetness but since I got into DIY my tasters have changed! Edit: I find sugar daddy to be much easier on my coils than cap supersweet.

What percentage would represent very sparingly? I use between .5 and 1% depending on the recipe. Sucralose legitimately makes me sick, can't drink, eat, or vape it. Even in very small quantities.

For my tastes, I use 3 drops per 60 ml. in recipes I feel need sweetening. I'm sorry but I don't have a % to tell you. I can say that I never taste that sucralose taste!!!
