Well, I've attempted to create my own concentrated flavour of my favourite drink which is costa coffee. I bought some of the filter costa coffee. I filled half a 10ml bottle and then added pg to it. I shuck it up and then microwaved it for a few seconds. I gave it another good shake after adding more pg and then another zap in the microwave followed by a shake. I then used a coffee filter to filter it into a cup. Then I added the filtered content into a fresh bottle and I placed it in a dark cupboard were its been sat for a couple of days. It has remained a very dark brown colour. I'm going to add a few drops to some base this weekend to test it. I will post my findings:) if it tastes disgusting at least I've had fun experimenting!

Sounds great. I love Costa coffee. I normally go for a caramel latte.

Ok. I've added a few drops to 1ml base and I'm having a drip. Well the 1ml has almost gone its quite moorish. Not bitter just smooth. I think it needs a little dash of sweetener. It's not a strong flavour so I'm thinking at least 5 drops of concentrate at least per ml. Here's a picture of my costa concentrate:) Attachments:
