WOW

I made a VC mix 4 weeks ago as I wanted to see what the fuss was all about. Since it was mixed I resisted the temptation to try it and let it steep and watched it change colour the smell when it was steeping was hard to resist but I stuck to my guns.
Tonight I filled a carto up with it and wow oh wow what a flavour now I see why everyone is raving about it it is just like I've eaten some custard so I quickly made up 50ml and now have to go through the torment when the 10ml is gone of waiting for the next batch to be ready

Congratulations Browzer . . . for your patience as much as anything, but it's worth it as you've discovered.

I picked up the recipe of one of the threads I was reading it was 20% capella vc, 5% capella french vanilla and 0.6% ethyl maltol with a 70/30 pg/vg mix.

I'm a little confused as I also wanted to mix up some Vanilla Custard (PVC) but have found two different recipes, the one above with 20% CVC and this one posted on "The Alchemists Cupboard " website using 30% CVC.
Perpetua’s Vanilla Custard (PVC)
To make (aprox) 10ml:- Add 3.0ml of Capella Vanilla Custard, 0.5ml of French Vanilla, 2 drops of sweetener, to 6.5ml of your preferred VG/PG/Nic mix.
Any ideas which is the correct one to follow as 4 weeks is a long time to wait and find out I got it wrong.

Go with the 20% Shiny

20% it is then. A case of less is more, but I'm not applying that rule to the quantity I make up!
Thanks for the help,

I use 25% Capella VC in my PVC mix but that is the great thing about mixing your own, you can adjust it for your own tastes.

I use 20% VC in mine, I then add approx 10 drops of French vanilla and 2-3 drops of sweetener and I think it comes out tasty

I think this will be a good starting point for me. Later on I will try adding a small amount of Danish Cinnamon Swirl as I have found this flavour moreish

Well done nice one
