Blueberry concentrate

[minime]

Me again I'm looking for a really nice blueberry concentrate but not TFA iv got that and tbh it's very weak on taste to me.

I use Capella Blueberry at 20%. It is not to sweet and gives a lovely BB flavour.

TPA Blueberry Wild and FA Bilberry are both pretty strong tasting. I seem to have been waiting for ages for Chefs to get hold of FLV Blueberry.

It's the wild one iv got and at 20 % I'm getting nothing from it.

Oh dear, maybe you're using too much?  I've found it comes through better after a couple of weeks steeping.

So far I've only used the Wild with Bilberry in a Blueberry Custard:
TPA Blueberry Wild 6%
FA Bilberry 2%
Cap VC v1 6%
TPA Vanilla Swirl 3%
TPA Bavarian Cream 2%

Tastes pretty fruity to me (and my tastebuds are shot!).

TPA Blueberry Extra is nice.

It seems Blaster on UKV has been having the same problem.

BenH posted this helpful summary of his experiences:

The TFA wild blueberry is quite a mild flavour as a stand alone it needs another blueberry adding to give it some body, but it's a great fresh taste for adding a subtle hint to a mix.

Blueberry is my favorite flavour so far I've got a few steeping so cant say which is best for me yet.

TFA Blueberry wild, nice and fresh but weak. Needs around 8-15% in a mix.
TFA Blueberry extra, stronger and more sweet/fake taste, good mixed with the wild.
Flavour west Blueberry, steeping but maybe 10% as a single mix is recommeded to start.
Inawera Blueberry, Steeping 3% is recommeded smells nice though.
Solub Arome Blueberry, not sure yet first try seems ok and not over sweet I've started at 10% but I think it will need more
Alchemists cupboard Blueberry, works well with the TFA wild, not sure on % yet.

I find with all that I've tried so far is too much flavour seems to give a bad aftertaste that and some sweetners kill the flavour (cap super sweet) where as flavour west sweetner did not and if you cant taste anything at 15% then it's time for a week or two of menthol only.
