I'll be eternally grapefruit for your Input on this Flavor of the Week!

submitted about 6 years ago by ID10-TThe Kingmaker

As always, the purpose of this thread is to gather the community to explore a category of flavor and its many uses. And it's also to have FUN!

Post recipes containing this week's Flavor of the Week, as the star or in a supporting role, with or without development notes. Talk about other people's recipes that use it. Compare and contrast different manufacturers' versions of the FOTW. Ask for help using that flavor in general or to achieve something specific, offer advice, brainstorm ideas, consider substitutions, suggest pairings... really anything at all as long as it's on topic.

I'm going to try at least half a dozen of them this week but the ones I'm most interested in are /u/hocuskrokus ' Grunch and these two simpler ones: Lilt and Lil' Squirt.

Grunch is also really excellent with some WS-23. I tend to not put it in public recipes because it's not everyone's thing but I think it really elevates it

Anybody try Terrorhawk? I love grapefruit vapes but it was a bit too much for me. Not sure if I can handle jasmine..

My favorite Grapefruits are Inawera (plain) Grapefruit and FLV Pink Guava. I've tried FW Ruby and its okay, not as good as INW. I've also tried INW White Grapefruit and that's strait up cat piss in a bottle. I know a lot of users here enjoy it but I just can't use it. I haven't tried FA or CAP Grapefruit(s).

I love Terrorhawk, but I can see that. I tried another ConcreteRiver recipe where he used jasmine a little higher it it was too rough for me. Looked at the other ingredients and I felt sure the issue was with the jasmine.

Anybody here who hasn't tried Fiestas & Fiascos needs to get on it. It's like this weird grapefruity/hops flavored awesomeness. That's what I get anyway.. At first I was like wtf is this? But the more I vaped it, the more I liked it.

Ruby Red v1

Dragonfruit (TPA) .50%
Golden Pineapple (CAP) 2.00%
Juicy Lemon (CAP) 1.50%
Lemon Sicily (FA) 1.00%
Lime Tahity Cold Pressed (FA) .60%
Natural Mint (INW) .20%
Ruby Red Grapefruit (FW) 3.50%

This isn't too bad, but would definitely benefit from some fine tuning and substitutions. It's been a hot summer, so I've been attracted to bright citrusy vapes.

I’m liking CAP grapefruit but it is the only one I have tried. Looking to see what is better on offer for this weeks FOTW.

Can we count VT Honey Pomelo as a grapefruit? Or close enough to Grapefruit?

If so...

I’m working on a Grapefruit and Hops Pudding recipe called Enshi! (shoutout to RainbowDragon for the name)

https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/share/700d9231-ea71-44bc-a472-248c6926c78e

This is freaky but really good so far! The Honey Pomelo/FW Blood Orange combo bend into a really awesome bright grapefruit flavor.

2 points

by ID10-Tabout 6 years agoThe Kingmaker

Yes we can. I don’t have that flavor but a real honey pomelo is close enough to a real grapefruit.

by eyemakepizzaabout 6 years agoThe Ice Cream Man

From what I’ve read about Pomelo, grapefruit is actually a hybrid between pomelo and sweet orange, so I guess blending the two makes some sense!
