Is local lekker?

@Rude Rudi , thanks for the feed back, tested apricot at 2.5% and it tasted like perfume. Might give it another at a lower %.

2.5% in a recipe or stand alone?
If in a recipe, bring it way down - like under 1%.
If stand alone, let it sit for at least a week - you'll find it mellows nicely.

Mixing with a scale using Clyrolinx is a problem so I decanted all my Clyrolinx concentrates into plastic dripper bottles today. Was a mission but should be better/easier in the long run.
All the different concentrates poured out quite easy, like water, but I was quite surprised when I got to the Lemon.
It was very very thick, as thick as VG. First I thought there was something wrong with the 5ml bottle but the 20ml bottle was exactly the same.
Anyone else notice this or is it just me?
 
I am having very odd experiences with Cly. I have tried three mixes so far:

1) 3% Cly Malva with 2% FA Custard: all I'm tasting is custard.
2) 3% Cly Milk Tart with 2% FA Forest Mix. Didn't taste the berries at all, just Chanel No. 5 from the Milk Tart. Binned it.
3) 4% FA Cola with 2% Cly Cherry (HIC's recipe although he uses FA Black Cherry). All I'm tasting is Coke.

So Cly is either dominating or vanishes. I think I will have to do mixes with just Cly on its own to try and get a handle on how to use it.
 
Indeed, also ran a little experiment, with Pirates Amarula and TFA bavarian cream. Still steeping so will give and update as soon as it is done. All my other recipes are from jut from Pirates

I've only made the Cly Malva form your list and have been very happy with the result. I upped the Malva to 5 with 3 vanilla swirl (and a touch of apricot) as mentioned before and is is beautiful!

I think the Custard may "envelope" the malva as it steeps.

I added my own custard mix to prepared malva (in tank) and it does definitely mute it somewhat.

Give it a go as a single mix at 5 perhaps (and no steeping required).

PS - I am vaping it as we speak = been my ADV for a while now - on my 4th batch (in 3 weeks)!
 
I've just made up a batch of Malva on its own at 2%. I'll add to that if the flavour is weak. I have to say, it smells delicious. I just hope that, without the custard, that aroma will come through as flavour this time.
 
I made an accidental Clyrolinx masterpiece.
I made singles of my first order at 5% because 3% sounded a little too good to be true and I wanted to get an idea of the flavours anyway. Amongst the flavour singles were a Peanutbutter and a Cookies and Cream. Satisfied with what they tasted like I mixed these two together.

Like a fool I never recorded or measured the ratios. So now I have an awesome little Palate cleanser of Peanut
CLY - Peanutbutter Cookies.

My best guess is:
Peanutbutter - 3%
Cookies and Cream - 2%

They steepes individually for 2 weeks and together for a week.
Ill certsinly be tweaking these two in the near future. Ive been playing with fruit flavours all along and this is a nice relief from all the tart and sweet mixes I have.

I meant to mention. So far all the flavours have changed colour (very slightly) when they've steeped enough. If your CLY juice is still clear.. its not ready yet.

I tried a combination with CLY that came out pretty darn good straight away. 4% Banana 3% Custard and 2% Marshmallow. It is quite sweet but so far the nicest I've made with CLY
 
Hi All, what was the verdict on Clyrolinx Nicotine? I remember reading some people complaining about peppery taste. I am about to place an order with them...

Just got my Malva pudding today. Very excited to give this a shot. Gonna try it at 5% tonight and see how it vapes and steeps during the next week or so.

I've had no problem with their Nicotine.

I find their Nicotine to be A Ok. But I do like pepper lol. Nah, it doesn't taste like pepper to me. I also made a CLY creamy coffee 3% Came out darn good.

I know marshmallow is used often to sweeten a mix up but I find CLY marshmallow to be very strong and can take over a mix quite easily. Anything over 0.5% then all I taste is marshmallow.
I must admit that I have not had any other manufacturers marshmallow so it is difficult to compare, but if you are looking for a spot on marshmallow taste then that's what CLY marshmallow taste like.

My son had a peppery throat problem with the nic but only because it was too strong. I cut down his nic and everything was fine.
I started on 6 and did not have a problem.
He started on 3 and after about two maybe three weeks he was complaining that it "hit the back of his throat".
After much testing and experimenting with cutting down the PG, pure VG...etc, we finally cut down the nic and everything was fine.

26/08/2016 made three Malva mixes
CLY Malva - 3%
CLY Cream - 2%

CLY Malva - 3%
CLY Custard - 2%

CLY Malva - 3%
CLY Ice Cream - 2%

Mix and taste
Malva-cream - very little malva and quite a bit of cream
Malva-custard - very little malva and a little custard
Malva-Ice Cream - very little malva and a little ice cream

Will taste again shortly but I think your 5% might be about right, maybe even more if it needs to pop.

Thanks for the post. Very informative. I am going to try the Malva at 5% single and see, was thinking of adding .5-1% CAP VC or FA custard for the custard notes, but will play with it a bit. Will keep your percentages in mind though

The FA Custard killed my Malva, 3% Cly MP to 2% Custard. It's a nice vape but it's a plain custard vape. I think having MP on its own is probably best.

I just tried my 1% Torrone. It's OK, a bit weak so I can step it up a bit which is a relief. Was terrified I was going to get more perfume. My 2.5% Tiramisu is still in the steeping cupboard. I'm a bit frightened of it. There's like a low growling sound every time I open the cupboard.
