Has any one tried just mixing the VBI with nic and pg/vg, leaving out the % for the strawberry to add later. I do this with all my custard mixes and add the fruit a few days before I want to use it. Fruits tend to die off quite fast if left to steep along time. Even with Creeds Custard I leave to steep for a month then take out 30 mils of it and add 10% rip strawberry to the 30mils ,leave a few days and vape. Its quite nice BTW.
Not used VBI before but im guessing it will work like any custard type mix which needs a good steep time.

Real shame this I do it this way so I can make up 200 plus mills and still get the full on fruit, its the only way I have found to get in your face fruit. I mix the fruit for only a weeks worth at a time after that they die off if not some sooner. The other thing is you can mix other fruits in and out so I get to change it up as I fancy.
I got some VBI on order so will try it when it comes and add the fruit after a few weeks.

it works adding the strawberry after a week or two steep but I think its better added when I make it , well for me. One I have found works well with it is 6% TFA Strawberry 8% TFA Vanilla bean ice cream 3% TFA Tootie fruity Steep for a two weeks Im sort of addicted to that at the mo.

Taking full advantage of the current dissy code I ordered a (ahem) few concentrates this week, knocked up a crafty 200ml taster of this this morning.. After a minimal steepage I couldn't resist a taster. It's delicious!!

No waxy taste for me minime, just gorgeous strawberry milkshake, I've done a few mixes now, never more than 20ml of it and steeped for a good while, no breathing.

No waxy taste for me either minime . . . . I go 10% of VBIC, leave that a month - then add 8-10% Strawberry and steep the whole mix for a further 6-8weeks. Lovely.
