And the winner is..... (Best of 2018 Results)
submitted over 6 years ago by kirktBring on the Diacetyl, baby

A hearty congratulations indeed to our friend and valuable contributor /u/alfredpudding for winning the Best Recipe of 2018" contest! "007 Cola" was nominated by ID-10T and was the clear favorite among voters.

The recipe and ID's nomination post can be found here.

Congrats to all who were nominated and thanks to all of you who participated in the contest. The post is now locked to avoid vote changes but contest mode has been turned off to allow sorting.

Mr. Pudding, I will be in contact to arrange your prize delivery!

Edit - FWIW, Alfredpudding donated his winnings to another nominee (I'll leave it up to him to decide if he wants to disclose who). Solid move and very generous.

Congratulations /u/alfredpudding !!!! And thank you for sharing this awesome recipe. It wasn't necessarily the best-tasting recipe I tried in 2018 but it was easily the most astounding feat of mixing.

And.... That's three winning recipe of the year nominations in a row for me. I think I'll retire my "Winner of the 2nd DIYorDIE World Mixing Championship" flair and dub myself "The Kingmaker."

Congrats Alfred! I gotta say cola vapes just dont do it for me and while I cant vape 007 cola for more than a bit at a time I can definitely see how awesome of a recipe it is. It still blows me away how you got cola out of those flavors.. that's flavor bending at its finest! Rock on bro !

Thank you for the congratulations! I completely understand why it's not a profile for you. I made it to help our fellow mixers looking for a solid cola vape.

I've been meaning to try this recipe for ages, but can't seem to find VT Fizzy Sherbet where I am from.

&#x200B;

Might try INW Lemon + Lemon Mix combo to replace it, any suggestions?

Unfortunately I'm not aware of any flavors that can replace Fizzy Sherbet in this context. I believe Chefs Flavors sells it and they ship internationally.

Will definitely check them out, I suspect the shipping will be a killer though. Shipping may be worth it because I really want to order FE Green Tea too which cannot be found here!

Does the sweet and cinnamon tear up subohm tank coils, is this meant to be dripped primarily?

2 points
 
by AlfredPuddingover 6 years agoWinner: Best Recipe of 2018 - 007 Cola

It's not enough Rich Cinnamon to have a dramatic effect, so probably the same as any other sweetened eliquid.

by DudeAwezomeover 6 years ago

Thanks for the reply, I've had horrible luck with sweetener in my previous subohm tank coils. Haven't tried for a while though, hoping that can be fixed sometime...

If you'd like to try my recipe you can leave out the sweetener, it was added for accuracy but I still enjoy it sans super sweet.

Was a big fan of AlfredPudding's AlfredPudding, can't wait to mix up some of AlfredPudding's 007 Cola, even though it doesn't have the same sort of ring to the name.

u/AlfredPudding, a well deserved win. You hit all the marks with that one. Nostalgia, realism, accuracy, simplicity, adaptability, and deliciousness.

I look forward to the work that is inspired by this one.

Congratulations Alfred. I knew this recipe would win. So did ID10-T when he nominated it. That's why he chose it specifically. In the words of Juliette Lewis in Kalifornia "and he's right.... because he's right." It truly is a phenomenal recipe that was developed incredibly thoughtfully and carefully. Next level shit for sure.

/u/AlfredPudding - Well done mate!

I have everything on order and will be jumping in with mixing 500mls of juice!

While ordering I also done some snooping and have some DaveBerryCheesecake steeping :)

Wow. That recipe is all kinds of wrong that come together to be SO right :) That's some amazing talent. Just knocked off a 240 so i can share it with friends to get their reactions. Plus - it's easier to get your teeny tiny percentages right when you go a little larger :) I wouldn't even want to try to get that cinnamon right in a 30 mil. That is some seriously expert level flavour crafting. Well done and congratulations!
