heh, no i did not exactly expect to have all kinds of different VC samples thrown at me by 3 different ppl, with every single one of you turning down my offer to paypal you the posting costs for AIRmail. (considering im a stranger from a different country and completely new on these forums) jep, thats what kind of ppl you guys are.

All the ones I sent you are not straight custards BTW they are custards/custardy ish with a twist.

i have meanwhile tested all the samples igual. the dragon custard i can not enjoy, looks like i dont like dragon fruit (never tested before). spiced custard is funny, i like the taste of the "spiced christmas cookie" in it. i experimented with that flavour in the past and while i like it, my taste buds seem to tire extremely fast to(from?) that taste, resulting in basically loss of the spiceynes after 20 minutes of vaping. krimblefart is definately interesting, not just the name, its mandarine i taste in there right ? all three samples have in common that the additional flavours overpower the vanilla taste for me unfortunately. i can hardly make out vanilla or custard notes in them.
soooooo. with everything tested the facts: none of the samples tastes like rubber glove, even the one with ddl in it. also i dont seem to enjoy the french vanilla deluxe. none of the samples have the strong caramel taste i experience in gvc.
i will probably settle for a hybrid: CLC but swap french vanilla for caramel. never tested straight caramel flavours, so i need to figure out if i want tpa caramel, tpa butterscotch or tpa caramel candy. might order all 3 and see what i like most.
steeping will be done without breathing for 1-2 months in my standard brown glass bottles.

Try steeping some in plastic bottle. Eliquid really dose benefit from it, glass will slow down the steeping process.

Sounds like a plan larokka . . . . I'm intending on trying some Capella Sweet Cream, when I next have a custardy mixing session for a change. I'd advise you not to use Amber glass bottles however, unless you are blessed with the patience of a Saint. allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/thread/56119/quick-steeping-methods?page=1&scrollTo=973683Caramel flavours . . . . TPA Caramel Original is my favourite from the ones you mention - a good old fashioned, slightly toasted caramel flavour to my tastes. The other two weren't for me at all, a far nicer Caramel Candy is Flavor Wests or OneonOne's versions - both more buttery/creamy than TPA's Original Caramel.

hehe well to breathe or not to breathe is the question. if you use plastic, depending on type of plastic, you allow air to enter/leave. could as well breath a glass bottle once a day or for a fixed time (1/2/3 weeks) straight. effect is the same: you allow air to react with the liquid. for good or for bad.
caramel i need to see. not sure ill be able to get flavour west. it doesnt seem to be common in germany.
i tried sweet cream before. but i forgot which brand it was. cap or tpa i think. it did not do anything good for me. instead of creamy i got old and rotten. your milage may vary. might want to sample it before doing a batch with it.

We'll beg to differ on that one larokka. i tried sweet cream before. but i forgot which brand it was. cap or tpa i think. it did not do anything good for me. instead of creamy i got old and rotten. your milage may vary. might want to sample it before doing a batch with it. I never make a batch of anything before making and testing a new recipe or flavour.
