Bought some Capella recently, I picked up the following flavours from The Alchemists Cupboard; Blueberry Raspberry Harvest Berry Sweet Strawberry Sweet Tangerine Vanilla Custard Cinnamon Danish Swirl Graham Cracker Marshmallow Pralines & Cream So far, these are the ones I've tried. Capella - Vanilla CustardMixed using Rom's % of VC/FVD and Perpetua's % of sweetener. Deliciously creamy vanilla custard, nuff said. If, like me, you're not sure if you'll like a "custard vape" and haven't tried it yet...buy some and give it a try, it's really surprised me how much I like it. Capella - Sweet StrawberryIt tastes more like a sweet shop strawberry to me, reminds me of "Strawberry Chewits"  I can vape it quite happily but not sure yet if I'll be making a 2nd purchase. Capella - BlueberryYUM! love this flavour, tastes exactly like the blueberry flavour they use in blueberry muffins etc I can see me experimenting quite a bit with this one. Capella - Sweet TangerineAnother winner for me, really nice tangy, zesty orange flavour. A very pleasant bitter note, which I wasn't expecting but it enhances the "natural" vibe of this orange flavour. Delicious on it's own (I mixed it at 20%) but I'm loving it with 5 drops of sweetener per 10ml and 3 drops of DIY menthol concentrate (using the "fill a bottle half way with crystals and top up with PG" method) Reminds me of Orangina Capella - Harvest BerryGorgeously moreish fruits of the forest flavour, mixed at 25% as recommended by Rom with 5 drops of sweetener in 10ml. Hard to put my finger on the individual fruits bouncing around on my taste buds but I definitely get Blackcurrant & Raspberry. Haven't tried this with menthol drops yet but I'm looking forward to it, pretty sure it will make a great combo. I'm very impressed with Capella so far, I can see me buying the whole range in the near future to experiment with.  |

Loving the Harvest Berry Rom I was a bit hesitant to put 25% in 10ml but it's perfect. Bags of juicy, fruity vape goodness in each inhale. Really nice "Fruits of the forest" flavour, I used 5 drops of sweetener in 10ml which is spot on for my taste buds. On the first vape I got a flash back to when I was a nipper and tried to fit a whole pack of Rowntrees fruit gums in my mouth |

I'm the same Ray, started off with 80/20 then 70/30, now I make my own juice at 50/50 (Peppermint Menthol or Vanilla Custard but I'm experimenting with more flavours now) I find it much smoother & less harsh. I vape about the same amount too, usually get through 2 Evods in a day, so that's about 3ml. 1 month smoke free is early days so you're right that you're body will still be adjusting, the Cilia lining in your sinuses and bronchial tubes will be regenerating. You might find yourself coughing more because of this, but that's a good thing as it's your body clearing out the crap. If you feel better with 50/50 stick with that, give it time, don't overdo it but vape as often as you need to stay off the smokes. BTW If you haven't already, definitely give some thought to making your own juice. Switching from hangsen/dekang etc to making my own was the best thing I did since i started. Peppermint/Menthol for example is very easy to make and you can tailor the PG/VG content however you like.  |

Hi ray111 what juice are you vaping, do you know the PG/VG ratio? You may be intolerant to either PG or VG (usually PG) If you're vaping a PG heavy juice try switching to something with more VG. |

Nice find Jim might try that next time. This FW Sweetener is great stuff (first sweetener I've tried) added a few drops to some home made Flavourart Raspberry/Passion fruit/Hazelnut juices that I was finding a bit dry & slightly bitter/weird tasting, it's improved them loads  Loving this TPA French Vanilla Deluxe btw |

Yes they are Adam . . . they're both Sucralose based, I can't tell the difference between the two. Although the finely tuned palate of our Vape God Super-Shiny might, but for us mere mortals there's no noticeable difference. I knew he'd clear the TPA stocks sooner or later. good to hear, just received my order & about to mix up some PVC , thank you perpetua  Just another day at the office for me, nothing is impossible  Romelee  considering you're a God I pictured you being a bit...taller  |

I'm going to be placing an order at 28vapeslater but they're sold out of the TPA sweetener. Will I be able to follow the recipes that call for TPA sweetener but use the same amount of FW sweetener instead? Could someone who's used both please let me know if they are roughly the same strength Cheers |

I really liked Chefs Vapour "Fluffy Nuts" so I'm looking for a decent marshmallow flavouring to experiment with. Most of the flavouring companies have their own version of marshmallow so I'm not really sure which one to go for, I'm looking for one that actually has the flavour of marshmallow rather than just adding sweetness. Cheers |

Can anyone recommend a mint flavour that tastes like a polo mint, thanks. Flavourart Peppermint tastes exactly like polo mints to me. I've seen it suggested that just 5% is enough but I like it quite strong so I mix at 15%. |

nice one glad you got the hang of it, more often than not a well re-built ekowool evod vapes noticeably better than with the stock coil. |

You can Tube all day long, drink all day long and then be fascinated by the fact that no one seemed to need to urinate the entire time.  Thanks to all that have replies..and I don't know if some other Colonist has stirred the pot, so to speak, but I pride myself on NOT being an "Ugly American". Never a need to pretend you're Canadian if you treat all with love and respect or at least that's how I roll. Friendly bunch here fistofsouth no preconceptions or xenophobia, any & every vaper is more than welcome to join in. I had to google "Ugly American" & am happy to report I've never even heard the term used before, just another stereotype...I'm sure there's lots of stereotypes of us Brits where you're from  Right, I'm off for a nice cup of tea and a crumpet, Toodle pip! |
