Here's one I'm quite enjoying, my as-yet-unnamed sticky caramel apple butterscotch almond pudding thing :p

Works pretty well with the substitutes as well for those that don't have FLV (which IME tends to fade out anyway)
  • Vanilla Custard (FLV) 2% or sub for CAP V1 2%
  • Caramel (FLV) 3% or sub for FA 1.5%
  • Butterscotch (FLV) 1% or sub for TFA 2%
  • Fuji Apple (FA) 1.5%
  • Toasted Almond (TFA) 3%
  • Vanilla Bourbon (FA) 1%
  • Whipped Cream (TFA) 2%
Mixed at 70/30 - needs a 2-3 day steep minimum for full potential.
 
Viper's Espresso Sundaezzz:

3mg at 40/60 PG/VG

3% FA Coffee Espresso (Dark Bean Espresso)
4% TFA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

@r0gue z0mbie , please remember what that juice was - the one i tasted with you guys at the meet. It was a mix of two things. I really liked it. I think you, @Mike and @method1 knew what it was. Had a lovely sourness to it...

Oh that. As far as I know it was a mix of one of @Mike's mint or menthol. And then a Blueberry Muffin - one of @method1's upcoming Hardwicks juices.

Lol, it was odd combpt, but damn nice.

Ok Lol, thanks. I remember you guys being quite surprised at how nicely it turned out. Was lovely indeed. Will wait for Mr Hardwicks to get mixing and then try replicate the combo one day

Yup it was a mix of one of mine plus some menthol flavour that @element0709 brought along, which has sparked the idea of a collab, aka EleMenthe D'Erique.

Mr. Hardwicks also had some very nice tobaccos, which I'd like to see come to market.

And Honey Girl is divine.

I have also just started the DIY thing, just bought basic flavours, but they seem to be a bit harsh. I'm a fan of Voodoo Juice's Sub Zero, so I like Koolada in anything.

I just mix for example Candy Apply or Grape flavour with Koolada. Nothing fancy but It's a bit harsh on the throught. I think the last batch I made was at 8% of each flavour. is that too much? Or what else makes the juice a bit harsh?

Is that TFA flavours? Because 8% should be fine. But it varies from flavour to flavour. You should generally look up what percentage people use a particular flavour at.

Also, mix at 60VG and higher to get a smoother mix.

Juices are also sometimes harsh if not steeped.
 
Ok great, thanks for the advice, I think the next batch I make I will start off with 50/50 and 5% on the flavours at 6MG Nic. and then make a bottle that I'll let sit for a while.

What is average time to let it steep?

Anything from a week onwards. Check it after a week, if it's weird, leave it another week.

You should also consider adding 1% Bavarian Cream or another cream, tor even marshmallow to help smooth it out.
 
Ah! I see, next I will buy the Smooth flavour, the place I get my juice and flavours from has one that I think is flavourless but smooths it out.
 
Take it easy on the Koolada, a little goes a long way. If you're using Koolada at 8% that could account for the harshness.
