Black Cherry & Menthol

[denis9t9]

Mixed some up last night 70/30 10% pa black cherry & 10% home made menthol, how long would you leave it before trying it, i am am after a tunes flavour?

Personally, 1-2 days. It's not a complicated flavour so doesn't need a long time, IMO. Try a drip now and see what you think

Will do when i get home this evening, will give me an excuse to try the new 306 atty

I am doing this later but need the flavours stronger. Good to know you don't need to steep long.

I'm in two minds about steeping, myself, anyway. Certainly 24 hours makes a difference after it's mixed. But whether 2 or 3 weeks are required, I dunno. With some, definitely, but not with all by any means. I think what you're mostly getting after 7 days is subtlety, which is beneficial for some juices (esp. baccy ones I'm told), but if it's just a straight up flavour - nah. Not for me and my taste buds anyway! I don't need that extra little hint of something-or-other myself, no patience

When it comes to mints and menthols - the fresher the better IMO. They can lose their intensity after a while.

It's Custard/Chocolate/Vanilla/Cakey flavours that I find best after a couple of weeks Jen . . . some of them can be quite horrid if you vape them too soon.

Others certainly not as long, fruits I also find go a bit ' off ' if they're left too long.

[Jen]

True, Perps, I do mostly mix fruity flavours. And custard definitely needs at least a week

I have just made my first cherry menthol and I have to say it really does smell like cherry tunes! I am very optimistic, although I may have put too much stevia in.
Fingers crossed. I will try it tomorrow

I made a mistake last week, made up some fruit @ 20% and Koolada @10%

Spot the mistake, my throat certainly spotted it

Should that have been 1% Koolada by any chance Rom?

I picked up the wrong juice and actually dripped and vaped Koolada in my RDA, coughed my lungs up, my eyes were running like mad

I should think it did. 



Did my normal thing of trying a few drops neat on my lick test when I first got some . . . only did that the once.

When you're mixing cheese flavours, I'd recommend to vape them straight away before the flavour wakes up ...
