I'm wondering if anyone has used this vanillin crystals in a custard mix and is so what did it bring to the mix if anything.
cheers Mark.

I was hoping to use it as a substitute to EM tbh only I don't find the EM is bringing much sweetness to my mix. The vanillin I was hoping would bring sweetness and a extra blast of vanilla taste to the mix.

Thanks perpetua, are chefs vapour good concentrates only iv never used them before. Chef's Vapour are a really good Vendor and I recommend them highly. They sell all the usual brands of concentrates (Flavour Art, Perfumers Apprentice, Capella, Flavour West) along with many others. P.S - I'm a total vanillin convert thanks to AAE-C mixology peeps Add it to all bakery/desert mixes. As Perpetua said, it's not a 'sweetner', but I find it does add to the creamy sweetness overall.

I'm finding chefs vapor site confusing ( I'm not good with this type of thing )
I'm looking for the following.
Vanillin. Sweetener ( of some sort but not EM ) Bavarian cream. MTS think it's called. And don't know if to try catalan cream.
Would all these be best from one vendor on there site say FA or would I be better looking around the other vendors on chefs site ?
just been back on chefs vapor site and typed Bavarian cream into the search and it brings some up but some of them it don't tell me who there from, confused.com.

Well individual Flavour manufacturers (like Flavour Art, Capella etc) have similar - but never exactly - the same concentrates. MTS is an additive specific to Flavour Art - and you can buy it off Chef's or any other site that sells Flavour Art concentrates. Same for Catalan Cream - that's A FA concentrate. It's a mildy spicy creme brulee type cream. I find all FA concentrates to be very strong though, so use far lower % of them than say Perfumers/Flavour Apprentice conc's. Bavarian Cream - there's a Perfumers/Flavour Apprentice version, a Flavour West version, and probably some others - and again you could choose to buy them off Chef's, or from a different site like Leisure Liquids or Vapable. Vanillin - as Perpetua says - you can buy it already pre mixed in a bottle, or get the powdered vanillin crystals and dissolve in PG to make your own. For easyness sake I'd say get the premixed. I don't use the sucrolose based sweetners myself as I don't really like them (plus I find most mixes sweet enough without adding any) so I'm not much help on that one, sorry! I did try Stevia sweetner when I first started mixing but realised it left a horrid aftertaste so haven't touched it since.

Cheers spacey.
I'm trying to get a sweet taste lingering on the lips after a vape.
As you can guess this is all for a custard experiment, I'm not new to mixing but I usually stick to the flavours I know I like, but I'm now getting a bit adventurous in my old age lol.
Iv sat and had a chat with john at FA in his office and he's a really good guy is john.
I used to love the dare devils custard but about a year ago I'm sure they changed the mix because the taste for me completely changed.

Anyone know a discount code for chefs vapor only potv,aaec,ukv don't work. AAEC in capitals you need to use minime . . . . Though I think you might find Dulce de Leche useful in a Custard mix, this is a nice ' clone ' recipe: GVC CLONECapella Vanilla Custard 18% Dulche de Leche 2% French Vanilla Deluxe 4% Sweetener 1% Are you still wanting links to specific products on CV site?
