T-Juice Colonel Custard Ratio and Steeping

[Perpetua]

I'll admit to being biased and liking Custardy Lovechild - alot Bez!






Though if you want to expand your custardy horizons, then this sample pack from SmokeRainbow could be worth consideration:

As could Vaping Kings:

I've not tried T-juice's yet, so don't want to do them an injustice, but it's worth trying a few other versions first maybe?

To be honest Bez the ready made Colonel Custard is OK, quite nice, it was the first custard I tried too.
I bought the concentrate and mixed it at 15%, 20% and 25% and I felt severely let down by it, even at 25% it is very bland, the taste is there, but only just and is nothing like the ready made!
It's a shame realy as all the other T-juice concentrates i've tried so far are great and taste fine.

I have held off on buying the Colonel Custard concentrate at the moment. Another kind member on here is sending me a sample of Grants custard and a couple of others that should be a real treat.

You can have what's left of my Colonel Custard concentrate Bez , I have around 4ml left in the bottle (I won't be using it) should be more than enough if you fancy trying it out for yourself, PM me your address and i'll gladly send it on.

I've not tried GVC yet but another great custard and a firm favourite of mine is SteamGunks Captain Custard HERE at Chefsvapour.co.uk ...... OM NOM NOM

Thanks for your kind offer but I am going to hold off on trying to mix my own at the moment. I was hoping that mixing the Colonel Custard at the recommended rate was going to taste like the premix. I'm going to try some other premixed brands and maybe look at some other recipes when I have better experience of mixing more complex flavours.

No worries.
Mixing isn't hard and don't get put off, just stick to a good mix calculator and the recommended percentages and you can't go wrong. You should give the Custardy Lovechild recipe a go, it really is lush after a 6 weeks or longer steep, deffo worth the wait!

Tried Chefs vapour custard at my local vape shop and found it rather sickly - too sweet of a taste. I'm going to get my mix of Red Astaire right then I will move onto my favourite custard. Looking forward to trying Grants custard when that arrives.

They arrived this morning. One of them had leaked a little bit so I could smell my vapemail when I walked into my house 

Will let you know more when I test them out this evening after my food
