I'm not getting any blueberry at all out of it.
I'm using the holy Trinity for my blueberry, and LA cheesecake and tfa vanillin for the cheesecake.
My recipie Tfa blueberry extra 3% Fw blueberry 2% Fa bilberry .5% La cheesecake 5% Tfa Vanillin(10%) 2%
Ok, so blueberry, as potent as it is in fruits, doesn't stand up in creams. FW Blueberry may cloud out any strawberries even as low as .5% in a fruit mix, but something with the strawberries allow them to stand out when paired with creams. I've also struggled with this profile, as well as a blueberry yogurt, blueberry smoothie, and blueberry ice cream. The only thing I can suggest is making a STRONG blueberry flavor profile, then adding a small amount of creams and bakeries to it.
I think a BB profile benefits a lot from dragonfruit (or other emulsifiers, havent read up on a lot of others). Id10ts Viserion is a stellar blueberry that sits on top of the bavarian cream + vanilla swirl he uses quite prominently. I think the high amount of dragonfruit he used helps it stand up a lot.
Had same issues on Loop RDA at 60w, no blueberry taste from holy Trinity at all.
Tried it on Peerless RDA at 90-110 (double alien coil) - whole bunch of blueberry flavor, almost too much tbh and cheesecake is strong as well.
I believe holy Trinity tastes much beater on high wattage.
Running about 130 on a dead rabbit
130 is high. Is airflow wide open (probably is)?
How close your coils are to airflow and drip tip?
Close your airflow half way and go from 30 to 130 w.
Then give it to your friend and see if he can taste anything.
This is off-topic as shit but does FA Bilberry smell like really old stale water to anyone? Or akin to musty damp clothes? Really strange, daren't vape it.
it smells horrendous. but under 1% in a recipe it does add a little zing. But yeah, the bottle and even in a mix too high it smells like someone wiped their sweaty ass crack with musty gym socks. I think there's better flavors if you need tartness, I really like using JF Strawb Sweet it has a nice tart bite to it IMO.
It seems to be a common held opinion that FA bilberry is a funky flavor with even more so of a smell. But people better at mixing and describing than me have said it gives a nice supporting flavor of blueberry skin to the blueberry trinity and overall seems to be one of those flavors you keep very low for good results.
It's really not a good flavor. I use CAP SL Blueberry instead of it when I need to add some freshness to candied blueberries.
Usually the trinity gets .1% INW Lemon Mix (or, if you're limited in options, .25-.5% FA Lemon Sicily) to make the flavor pop a bit.
I’ve had issues with vanillan mellowing and muting my fruit flavors, and you’re using substantially more than I have in the past. I typically mix it between 0.5-1.2. Try lowering, subbing, or removing it.
Full disclosure: I’ve never mixed blueberry anything, so if this doesn’t work I’m out of ideas.
I love blueberry vapes (blueberry everything tbh). I too didn't have much luck with the trinity. I've had success using higher percentages of TPA Blueberry Wild (7-9%) with FW Blueberry (1-3%). My friends enjoy it too. I've used it with ice creams, bakery flavors and a custard.
Try using a lot more FW Blueberry (like 5 to 6%) and adding a touch (like 0.25%) of whatever lemon flavor you have available.
Like lemon Sicily?
I’m in the same pickle as you but with a Blueberry Ice Cream.
The blueberry is there but it’s very faint.
u/Foment_Life and I have been discussing this and his suggestion, which I haven’t gotten to mix up yet, was to bump the Billberry to 1% and lower Blueberry Extra to 2%. That was off the OG Trinity %’s though which I see you’ve already altered.
Mix up u/ID10-T's Viserion. Love it!
If u/ID10-T thinks Lemon Sicily will work in place of FE Lemon I certainly will! If not I’ll have to grab that and give it a go!
I did mix up his pineapple ice cream and it was absolutely fantastic!
Awwww, thanks. Yeah, not creamy enough to pass as "blueberry ice cream" - more like a great glob of frozen blueberry pie filling on top of a smaller blob of vanilla whipped cream. Should scratch that blueberry & cream itch though, right?
Bilberry + 0.25% (or less) TFA Huckleberry provides a pretty solid dark berry.
Also check out FLV Blueberry Muffin. it's a delicious baked blueberry flavor with pretty much 0 muffin right around 3%.
The Trinity is amazing. But as I usually mix creams the blueberry extra often gets lost, and I have to pump up FW blueberry.
Might want to try something like...
0.5% FA Bilberry
3% FLV Blueberry Muffin
2-3% FW Blueberry
Possibly add
0.1-0.25% TFA Huckleberry
I've played with it a bit but can't hit a sweet spot
I’m sorry to hear that, there are groups of people that have a hard time tasting certain flavors. Strawberry is another common one. There is usually a way to get around it, but I’m not sure what that is for blueberry recipes.
I don't think that's the problem because I can taste other blueberry juices fine, i.e twinspired blueberry cheesecake, and blueberry The One
