I got a whole bunch of flavors from a friend of mine and I've been mixing a ton of recipes but so far my only regular mix is a simple RY4.
- TFA RY4 Double @ 4%
- FA Soho @ 4%
- Cap Super Sweet @ .5%
Sometimes I will throw in 1% FLV Vanilla Pudding or 1% FLV Butterscotch just to change things up but I'm wondering what you guys would suggest to improve upon the above recipe?
Update: I'm mixing it at 24mg and vaping between 12-16 watts on a KFL if that helps.
we have a Weekly Suggest a Recipe Thread that you should probably use for this. Post a link to your stash for best results. Next one is in a few days. You can post one every week since last week's gets buried easily.
Bump the ry4 double a lot, 10%. Commercial juices are loaded with it. What you have here is a Soho recipe mostly. Reduce the Soho a bit. Having a little vanilla may help the whole mix sweeten up aroma wise.. Holy vanilla 1 or 2%. Maybe some kind of biscuit flavor if you want to make the whole thing even richer : cap sugar cookie, tpa cheesecake gcrust, inw biscuit, fa biscuit, fa torrone even would be a bit out of place but could work in small doses..
Thank you so much! This is the feedback I was hoping for.
If you check FA website they suggest 10-20% for Soho and using 4% would be quite weak IMO. If you watch the diyordie podcast about RY4, I think all people agreed TFA RY4D was best in 4-7% ranges, also giving an off or dirty flavor to most in the 10%+ ranges.
I always mixed TFA RY4 D at 12% and made it work to take a break from FA Soho but after listening and trying less it improved the the flavor a lot for me.
What flavors do you think it’s lacking?
Huh, never considered that. I settled on the Soho because it has a nutty flavor I really like, and the majority of the commercial juices I vape are desserts, so maybe something to sweeten it up without using more Cap Super Sweet or something to help with the nuttiness?
So sweetener for sure. How about creams or Vanilla swirl. I’m sure someone here would have better recommendations. But, if you had RY4 commercial juices that you liked maybe look at the flavor profiles or clones of them and see what you might be missing. Or just consider what you’d like to taste in addition and then look for the best flavor to match. 😊
I gotta suggest you try 15-20% Soho by itself, that's been my all day MTL vape for about 4 years. Just fyi FA recommends using Soho at much higher percentages than almost all other flavorings which is why that % is so high.
As far as additions, sometimes I like to add 2 drops of FA Honey per 5ml tank.
Also Acetyl Pyrazine 2% sometimes adds some nuttiness and reminds me of Halo's Tribeca juice.
Overall, I vape other RY4s standalone or mix up recipes by Fear and others to give my pallet a break and then go back and enjoy the FA Soho by itself. If you vape DL this might be very different as I find Soho vapes differently with DL versus MTL.
> Acetyl Pyrazine 2%
I add a drop of AP per 3mL of finished liquid. Much more than that and it gets into Fritos corn chips territory for me. It’s crazy how different people perceive flavors in different ways.
