Weekly 'What are you vaping?' Thread - Week of October 01, 2018
submitted almost 7 years ago by c5b4c91772c729fc7d0a

This thread is for you to share what you are vaping lately, be it your own or another mixers recipe. Maybe you happened to stumble upon your new ADV in the October Recipe Thread? Or did someone recommend your first mix to you in the Suggest a recipe for my flavors Thread?

Share what you liked or didn't like too much, but most importantly, please make sure to properly link to the recipe and to the mixer if they're on reddit.

If you need some inspiration, some websites keep track of your mixes and batches: e-Liquid Recipes and All The Flavors.

Also make sure to checkout last week's thread for inspiration or to follow up on a mix that turned out even better after a week of steeping!

Happy Vaping!

I have been vaping more Four Coco by u/xGRANITEx - It's a delicious coconut-infused HHGRY4 and you should try it out. Some of u/eyemakepizza's Hula recipe, which is an amazing fruit blend that can now be found on ATF along with other awesome creations. I tried some Phantom Ravioli and FLV Donuts thanks to Mr. Burgundy. I tried out some FLV Greek Yogurt and was pleasantly surprised. I found out the name of Watergate Salad when trying out this delicious recipe by Demented76. I finally got around to trying out Black Blossom Tea which is my first heavily floral vape and I was not disappointed. Hopefully I can get u/kindground to start working on that strawberry cream recipe again. I made a new bottle of The New Sweet Potato Pie so I could experience some more perfection from folkart. I have been vaping through my testers of pudding. Finally, I went on a pink guavacation yesterday thanks to u/ID10-T's inspiration, and it has been absolutely magnificent.

Super stoked you're liking Hula so much!

I did finally transition over to ATF. Shoulda done that along time ago haha.

I see you added summer drink. I've found its best fresh rather than after few weeks steep. I've transitioned to a marble composition book and my head for math. Maybe a calculator for oddball percentages. Found it much faster than finger fucking my phone. Especially when trying to create something.

Yessir, I've been slowly adding everything over from ELR.

I have noticed that after a couple of weeks the citrus from the Lime tends to dull down a bit and everything blends together rather than each flavor showing on it's own. I usually mix up 60mls at a time.

Glad you enjoyed your guavacation!

How did you get the Phantom Ravioli out of your atomizer? I was surprised by how not-unpleasant it was to be vaping a startlingly accurate pizza pocket but my RDA had to take a bath in isopropyl afterward.

by AlfredPuddingalmost 7 years agoDiketones, Schmiketones

I didn’t even attempt to get it out. I think I’m going to pass along the Phantom Ravioli and the RDA to someone else. It was incredibly accurate, but I didn’t enjoy it very much; I probably won’t have an inclination to revisit.

Glad you're liking it Alfred. I broke open my v2 of Four Coco with 3% FW GC instead of 2%, and its MUCH better. I appreciated that feedback. I changed it officially on ATF because it just vapes tastier :)

I’m seriously so happy that my feedback helped! I’ll make a new batch ASAP and get it steeping.

Mostly a bunch of mostly boring single-flavor creams. Quick takes:

  • FLV Cream is a velvety gift from the flavor gods. Their Sweet Cream is a little weirder and more difficult to work with.

  • VT Sweet Cream tastes like sucking the cream out of a Hostess cupcake, which is really cool.

  • RFSC Cream and Sweet Cream taste ok but don't vape right, predictably.

  • LB Cream and Fresh Cream vape a little oddly, too.

  • 1% is probably too high to use HS Cream, it tastes like mixing movie theater popcorn butter with heavy dairy cream. I'll have to dilute it and try again.

  • You probably already know everything you need to know about CAP Sweet Cream and FA Cream Fresh.

  • TFA Sweet Cream seems underrated/underused, just keep it around 1%. It's certainly better than FW Sweet Cream which has a weird chemically aftertaste.

  • Even with a really, really long steep, TFA DX Sweet Cream still tastes like baby formula vomit.

  • OoO Cream Milky Undertones makes a great milky cream. Not as great as FA Milk, but easier to get your mitts on if you live under the FANA freedom-hating authoritarian regime.

  • OoO Cream Bouquet is interesting, tastes like candy lemon whipped cream with rich, coating mouthfeel. I can dig it, even if it has limited usefulness. That's at 2% though, I hear it can be used lower as an additive to lend that rich coating quality to other creams without bringing the lemon along.

Speaking of creams, as anyone gotten one to work in a pod? I've been messing around with this and so far it seems to me that the best you can do is use a ton of a creamy vanilla because vanilla comes through well and if it's a creamy vanilla rather than a spicy or extract-y vanilla it kind of leaves the impression of creaminess. But it's still like a shadow left by creaminess rather than actual creaminess. Non-vanilla creams seem worthless in those dinky little pod deals. Am I wrong? Help?

The other thing I've been vaping is my own submission to Mixers' Club, which is really /u/AlfredPudding's recipe that I barely helped with at all. Waiting on some club feedback and longer steeped testing before posting the recipe but it is a half-tea, half-lemonade spiked with Bourbon and it is a delight.

The other things I'm about to be vaping as soon as I get a chance are /u/mlNikon's delicious looking and smelling Vanilla Cronut and the ginger pear bacco idea that /u/chemicalburnvictim helped me out with in last week's What Are You Vaping? thread.

I love this weekly feature and I love this community. You guys and gals are awesome!

OOO Cream Bouquet sounds really interesting, I'm definitely going to pick it up in my next order. Thank you for all of the work you put in for Noted every week, we all appreciate it immensely. As far as creams in pod systems: I'm not entirely interested in using them in this context, but I have to agree with Jennifer Jarvis that FLV Vanilla Pudding will most likely help you out. Completely ignoring the section after that. I can't believe you haven't sampled the Vanilla Cronut yet! I'm going to vicariously try it again for the first time through you. Let me know how the ginger pear bacco venture turns out, that sounds delicious.

When I mixed Longing, I didn't have FLV Cream and I forget what I subbed (maybe Cap Vanilla Whipped Cream). It was still Really Good, taught me something about using creams, and was why I knew I would probably like Climbing.

Now I'm about to pull the trigger on FLV Cream and a 30 ml of Longing (so I can check my mixing against something I know is "right"--and because I really like it anyway/it won't go to waste).

What I'm trying to say is, you beautiful people make me shop! A lot! I don't mind, it keeps me out of trouble.

Me? I'm really hectic at work and just finished my last mixing stash, so am in a super-simple mode.

7% CAP Silverline 27 Fish

1-2% CAP Silverline Blackcurrant

1-2% TFA Sweetener

3mg/ml nic

70/30 VG/PG
[Mainly from someone's review of Silverline on youtube]

Lovely and fresh. "Smells just like Swedish Fish" according to the Swedes in the office. A great ADV, but works much better after morning coffee.

Mixed up 10ml in the evening, and vaped through the whole lot the next day, and am on rinse&repeat. I'll probably swap out the 27 Fish for 27 Bears tomorrow.

As of late I've been vaping a lot of Hula.

After a few weeks of toying around with percentages and different strawberries and a temporary rage quit, I came back to it and went with the classic TFA Strawberry Ripe and Cap Sweet Strawberry blend and it was perfect.

As always, I also have Summer Drink going. This was my first "perfect" mix and I always keep a bottle on hand.

I'm also trying to work out "Autumn Drink" which is a Apple Cinnamon Coffee because, fuck pumpkin spice.

Other than that, I've been rotating between a handful of things from u/Foment_Life, like Chase the Dragon, Peach Arnold Palmer and a recipe we co-developed Blueberry Ice Cream.

by Foment_lifealmost 7 years ago

Glad a few of my mixes are still in your rotation. I know summer drink and blueberry ice cream (it's still your recipe) will be staying in mine.

Watermelon Smack by /u/EdibleMalfunction. Tastes like a mellow, sweet watermelon. Really nice summer vape.

Naked 100 Brain Freeze general profile by /u/captainmalexus. Not sure if there’s a proper name for it or not but delicious and very pomegranate forward. I started doubling the coolant and now tripling both of them; I might need an intervention because I’m wanting to up it again.

A Naked 100 Polar Breeze remix that was on ATF but is now private or deleted. All I remember is it was all TFA and the 6% TFA Cantaloupe it called for was horrendous for me.

A Naked 100 Brain Freeze Clone from ELR (recipe also hidden or removed) that wound up being pretty spot on after sitting for a few weeks.

I've been searching for a perfect cream vape for years, and haven't found a single one where the vanilla note truly tastes like vanilla. The reviews for this recipe looks so good... but I do t know if I can go down that rabbit hole again.

Grack Juice in one tank. FA SOHO@14% in the other.

For long time now, and don’t really have a desire to change that!

by KratCatalmost 7 years ago

Nice, i do soho at 14% solo as well. Have you ever tried adding anything else to it? I love it solo but i wanna give it something new, maybe caramel, graham cracker, honey, or just some vanilla.

1 points
 
by Skenner11almost 7 years ago

SOHO and a little FA meringue works really well, if you like meringue (1-3%). It’s pretty damn good.

I’ve got a tester of SOHO 6% and FA Desert Ship 1% now too, see how that is in a few weeks.

I’ve tried to sub SOHO for some RY4s and I didn’t like the results. SOHO on its own is so much better to me.

https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/47426#lenola_cream_remix_by_dazcole - Not bad, can't fairly judge because my TFA Banana Cream is like four years old. Also never had the original. Still a nice vape.

https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/119220#sugar_cookie_dough_by_chessy - I'm really not feeling FLV Cookie Dough. I really want to like that stuff and I've tried a few recipes with it but the egginess is just overpowering for me. It really lingers in the room as well, and it just gets sickly after a while.

https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/96312#shorty_by_sixstrings952 - Vaping this MtL. Really want to re-mix it for DtL 'cause it didn't transfer over the greatest to MtL I feel. Like it's not bad, just feels a little muted. I found the same thing with the classic Strawberry Shortcake Bar recipe as well.

https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/113499#buttah_by_sixstrings952 Mixed for MtL also. I think this is nice? Haha, while I was mixing this I spilt Dulce de Leche fucking everywhere. That was about a week ago. The room still smells like DDL. I'm sick of that aroma now, so I'm waiting a while to revist this. Did taste nice on a little initial testing.

https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/113699#bottom_of_the_hill_by_chemicalburnvictim Mixed this for MtL as well. Only been through a couple of mLs so far. Waiting for it to steep a little. Could probably use a little boost in percentages for MtL I reckon but I'll wait to see how it ages.

Really just some variant grack remixes, and some of the tobacco variant of RY411. Had a run where I couldn't mix anything new, so nothing is done steeping yet otherwise.

I barely have time to scratch my butt since school started so I’ve been super quick mixing for mtl at much higher nic than I usually do. Stress.

Mon cherri 1-2-3

Inw cherries 2%
FA cherryl (black cherry) 1%

Or
Vt Blood orange champagne 3%
Jf watermelon 2%
Flv pink guava 1%
Dash coolant

If I have time for dtl it’s all fa gin 3%/flv boysenberry 2%

Hard to believe, but I think I'm missing one of those cherries. I think cherry in liquor from INW would probably work in place of the FA.

Just joined this sub!

Currently evaluating a chocolate-covered strawberry flavor I'm working on:

80 VG, 20 PG

2% INW Chocolate

4% TFA Ripe Strawberry

8% CAP Sweet Strawberry

1% CAP New Marshmallow

3% CAP Sweet Cream

​

I think I need to find a less coil-gunky chocolate, and also increase the ripe strawberry a bit.

Working on a blueberry greek yogurt, on the next order Ill have FLV granola and will be adding that to the mix. Right now the blueberry is more prominent then I'd like and the Greek yogurt is missing that sour tartness I desired from another recipe using this yogurt base I'm still vaping on. Used the Holy trinity blueberry base to start this recipe and plan to drop the bb base by 1/3 and see how it sits in the mix. Upped the Greek yogurt from 3% to 4% trying to see if the yogurt can even play with the blueberry base that high. The blueberry still mutes out the part of the Greek yogurt i want tho.

Edit: tried it with flv granola and it’s horrible taste like soy sauce. Gonna try it with tfa oatmeal cookie.

Blueberry Greek Yogurt

Bilberry FA .5%

Blueberry FW 2%

Blueberry Extra TPA 3%

Greek Yogurt CAP 4%

Lemon Mix INW .3

by mixmintressalmost 7 years ago

I always have a heavy menthol (my solution from crystals, as saturated as it will get), a 5% INW Mix Mint, and a 5% INW Eucalyptus & Mint going. Besides those, I just mixed small testers of /u/ID10-T's Climbing 9.25%, FLV Pink Guava 1%, and FLV Thai Chai 1%, all 3 with 1% ws-23 and 1% Polar Blast. I wish I had also mixed up a tester of INW Pink Panther, but I just put all the stuff away so that will probably wait until next week. I have !so.many.untested.flavors!

edit 3 hours later, Climbing is delicious and I don't think this tester will last the week it's supposed to steep. Really good.

1 points
 
by ID10-Talmost 7 years agoWinner of the 2nd DIYorDIE World Mixing Championship

Oh my. If you’re enjoying 5% Euc with mint I’m afraid Climbing will disappoint you with a lack of flavor. I keep a 3% Euc with mint around ONLY for when I’m “can’t breath through my nose” sick.

2 points
 
by mixmintressalmost 7 years ago

Nope, it's delicious already. Thankfully I enjoy a range of more, er, reasonable vapes as well as the face-freezers! And adding the ws-23/pb gives it that little cold kick. It's a really smooth and soothing, calm yummy flavor! I've already vaped most of my tester and I'm stopping myself bc I'm interested to see it in a few days, too.

I also think it will inspire me with ways to use similar components with some "harsher" flavors--like, this Flv Pink Guava is skunky as hell already--and I bet they would taste really good together.

I should have made a 30 ml-- With Nicotine, even. I probably will tomorrow.

I don't know why I enjoy blowing my head off with strong menthol-y stuff--but I crave it, gotta have something like that every day. At least to wake up. I also like to make them so strong because then they can be used to add a dab to tanks of other things, and I also keep unflavored around and use that to cut them back to 2-3%ish once in a while like a normal person.

1 points
 
by ID10-Talmost 7 years agoWinner of the 2nd DIYorDIE World Mixing Championship

I was kind of like that all summer. No WS-23? No, thanks. Glad you’re enjoying your chilled Climbing! And 1% WS23/PB sounds perfectly reasonable and normal to be. It’s just all that Euc with mint that sounds death-defying. Are you sure you’re not a White Walker?

Took DIYorDIE's strawberry jam monster as a base and tried to replicate the "limited edition" raspberry Jam Monster that's out there. It tastes pretty good and is lighter on coils than the real stuff though does still have some super sweet in there. I think I might tweak it some still as the raspberry is overpowering the butter a bit but overall has a very similar nose and finish.

|Flavoring|Percentage| |:-|:-| |Acetyl Pyrazine 5% (TPA)|1| |Butter (TPA)|2| |Dragonfruit (TPA)|0.5| |Raspberry (Malina Koncentrat) (INW)|2.5| |Strawberry (RF)|1| |Strawberry Jam with Toast (RF)|2| |Strawberry Shisha (INW)|2| |Super Sweet (CAP)|0.5|

So far no one has said it straight up tastes like strawberry, I can't taste strawberry vapes really so I wouldn't be able to tell but I figured this would give the raspberry a little more of a jammy/syrupy feel to it than what Raspberry MK INW brings to the table by itself. I wonder if Raspberry WG would allow me to drop some of the strawberry but not sure as I have never tasted it. The dragonfruit is to try and help the two fruits meld together even better. I originally was using Golden Butter (CAP) but found the pungency of Butter (TPA) to fit a bit better but I'm wondering if a dash of it at say 0.5-1% would help make it stand up better to the jam.

Nope, it's a little overpowering though as I said, might try closer to 1.75% next time I mix it, I was kind of winging it and this was my first mix of it. Maybe drop the Strawberry (RF) at the same time as well.

I call it Tart Bomb. It's a tweak on the Time Bomb clone.

  • Double Apple (CAP): 7%

  • DX Peach (Juicy) (TPA): 4%

  • Strawberry (Ripe) (TPA): 9%

  • Sweet and Tart (TPA): 1.5%

Great as a shake and vape. Flavors really start to meld into deliciousness after a couple days.

To my surprise I very been vaping gradually more and more simple recipes. I'm on the course to just using vg, vg based nic salts and water. My only two bottles I have mixed up currently are single flavor recipes with low flavor percentages. I'm finding I like simplicity in what I vape over complex recipes with many parts.

Currently doing max vg, some 50/50 nic salts(100mg/ml), 2 to 7% of some single flavor(right now honeydew and peach), and 3 to 5% ro water.

I still love being apart of this sub and seeing what people create, but my patience with anything other than a quick mix plus shake and vape has dwindled, maybe I'll bounce back, but right now I'm happy with what I'm vaping.

Hope everyone's having a great week!

Hello all! I'm new to Reddit, but I've been mixing for nearly 5 years. I'm currently vaping a pistachio ice cream that I've been working on. It's a work in progress, but it's a good vape! Please have a look at the recipe and feel free to mix it up. Let me know if you see something to add or tweak to make it a bit better, I'm always interested in new ideas!

It is a creamy pistachio flavored ice cream. The marshmallow, whipped cream, and meringue all give it a good mouth feel. The 3 sweeteners combined together give it a good sweet taste reminiscent of commercial juice, but not over powering like commercial juice, and really add to the sweetness of an ice cream treat. The Capella vanilla custard at this percent helps elevate and enhance the vanilla bean ice cream. Making it more pronounced and gives it a more genuine flavor.

http://e-liquid-recipes.com/recipe/2710273/Pistachio+ice+cream

Vg/Pg: 70/30 E.M. 10% 0.5% Fresh Cream (FA) 0.5% Marshmallow (TPA) 1% Meringue (FA) 1% Pistachio (FLV) 1% Super Sweet (Cap) 0.5% Sweetness (FLV) 0.75% Vanilla Bean Ice Cream (TPA) 4% Vanilla Custard (Cap) 2% Whipped cream (FW) 1.5%
