Cloudy E-Juice

[catx]

About 4 days ago I mixed TPA candy apple, 70VG/30PG 3mg.. Smells great but it's cloudy..(was cloudy when freshly made and it's not changed) Is this normal? 
First juice I've come across that has done this, maybe I messed up the mixture?

I made Citus punch which did a similar thing, it settled down and cleared some.

That's good to hear, least I didn't mess up! I'll leave for a full week before trying it. I've got high hopes for it.

I find the F.W natural lemonade is the same looks clear then you shake it and cloudy as hell, but still vapes nice

I wonder why some do this. Must be something in them I guess.


Can I ask what percentage do you mix Flavor West lemonade? I fancy trying a lemonade, (when i get around to making an order, reached my limit this month ) I keep writing down recipes I want to make like a mad scientist.  . Maybe I'm over doing it but it's too much fun not to..

Welcome to the world of 'mixaholics anonymous' catx, we all share the same burden of always missing that one single ingredient in a mix and having to order lots of others to make the postage worth it

I mix it at 16% as a standalone mix catx i think we are all guilty of wanting more and more recipes.

Lucky for me I have a birthday in a few days and I've been dropping hints hoping my new addiction can be satisfied with lots and lots of new concentrates.  

Thanks B Road Blaster, it's in my book now.

no probs if you look in the recipe section on here you will fill a whole book up full of tasty recipes

I did have a little look, seems a lot need more than one flavour and for now I'm trying to stick to just one.. buuut saying that I've come across one that I really want to try. "Dragons Blood"

I don't suppose you know much about The perfumers apprentice & The flavour apprentice? Are they the same company? The recipe calls for TFA but on chefsvaper it does say FA but under it also says perfumers apprentice. Rather confused. I don't want to order the wrong ones as it may turn out all wrong. Sorry for all the questions just tell me to shut up if I'm annoying you!

They are indeed catx . . . . originally known as TPA ( The Perfumer's Apprentice ) then over the years mainly I'd guess as a result of their flavours being widely used for our purposes they've become known as TFA ( The Flavour Apprentice ) - many Vendors use either or both names.


Thank you for the tag @broadblaster . . . . and never be afraid to ask questions, it doesn't matter how many catx .

[catx]

Thanks so much for the info! I understand now, I shall be placing an order soon!

[kreed]

The FA on chefs vapor is for FlavourArt catx

Great concentrates.........and usually much more potent than TPA/TFA.....so you use less

Thank you for the tag @broadblaster

Also, cloudy ejuice is mostly due to flavours containing malic acid (this is the stuff used to give a sour taste) and is also often added to citrus flavours to sharpen them.

You get it in a lot of lemonade eliquids too.

TPA/TFA sell this as Sour (which is a 15% -20% solution of malic acid in PG)

Cloudy is fine.....don't worry.
