I've ordered some capella lemon meringue pie v1 and I'm wondering what people are mixing with this or is it good as a one shot? I mix it at 14% and add 2% FA lemon scicily. I expect there's many recipes with more ingredients that could improve on that, but this does taste nice. I agree that a 'lemon boost' does wonders. I've found Cap LMP really does get tastier the longer you can leave it

What kind of taste does the bavarian cream bring? Well I could flippantly say that it brings a creamy flavour from a region of Germany. That description wouldn't be far wrong. It gives it a good body, depth, smoothness, creaminess and a sweetness. As above - it's an excellent blender when your other ingredients just don't seem to be doing what you want. It doesn't make things taste 'dairy cream'.

OK i really don't get on with vbic I get the pepper taste from it. Playing around with strawberry ripe, whipped cream and capella custard v1 but it's too custardy. I'm looking for that custard note in big mamas milk without the sickly. Apparently it's a blend of 4 creams and strawberry Capella have a VBIC now that seems to be preferred by the many people who get a peppery taste from the TFA version. Luckily I don't get the pepperiness and love TFA VBIC

Thanks ceedee - at least now I know the others (excluding choc deutsch) aren't as potent!! After reading the quote you posted I think I've done the right thing making a 10% dilution. Still concerned it won't be good for my KFL's When FLV Custard first appeared there was such a hype about it. I have CAP VC1 running in my veins though, so I guess I need to not think of FLV version as a replacement for that but instead try and use it more creatively I think... I've never had the actual Milk & Honey eliquid so luckily I'll be able to take FLV's at face value and not compare it. I've mixed up testers now at around 2-3% of the ones I have, and I'll do the others once they arrive. minime - agreed, it takes me forever deciding which ones I want!! Be interested to see what you think of the Blueberry Muffin once you've got it.

Noooooo I just placed a Chefs order yesterday!!! Thanks Perpetua Hopefully Chefs might be able to add it to your order that's processing if you contact them spacey . I was half way through emailing them to ask, then I stopped myself as I really can't afford it after spending nearly £40 there this week. There'll be another time (see how restrained I've become - I'm impressing myself )

I've not bought any new concentrates since before xmas due to being very skint (violins please ). Other than mixing up batches of my normal daily vapes I've been in a total mixing slump and lost enthusiasm Anyway, I've finally got some Flavorah concentrates in and feel excited that I'm regaining my mixing mojo Have spent the last week going through endless Reddit threads and vape forums to find some FLV based recipes that appeal, and have a few I'm about to try. What I'd like to know is do any of you have FLV Rich Cinnamon and what do you think of it strenght wise? It smells absoulutely divine and just like the smell you get from proper deep fried cinnamon sugar doughnuts. I can't wait to try it, but am slightly scared of its strength. Yesterday I put less than the pointy end of a pins worth on my finger to try, and it damn near blew my head off! So I then decided to dilute it and have made a 10% dilution to use in recipes I've found. I can still smell it in the kitchen, and every time i pick up the mod I was using yesterday I smell it (from the miniscule bit I had on my finger, not from vaping it!!). I had to chuck away the 1ml syringe I used to make the dilution as I could not get the smell out!! Am assuming this flavour could be a tank cracker (I mainly use Kayfun lites with polycarbonate section/bell caps)? I need to make up some 5ml testers of all the new flavours I got, but reading through this thread it seems some aren't half as concentrated as others so will be much trial and error. Now that these concentrates have been around for a good while and people have had time to gain experience with them, would any of you mind sharing your opinions on which are stongest/weakest of the list below? The flavours I got are Chocolate Deutsch (also smells bloody fantastic), Cinnamon Crunch, Coconut, Cream, Milk & Honey, Peanut Butter and Rich Cinnamon. I've also now ordered Butterscotch, Crunch Cereal, Sweet Coconut and Vanilla Custard (these weren't in stock when I placed the first order but I just HAD to go back and get them!). Any help/advice appreciated

CAP Gingerbread is the only gingerbread I've tried but I really enjoy it and it mixes well with a bit of choc, bavarian cream etc (sorry don't have a recipe). I do keep meaning to mix some of Skwoddy's up to try so thanks for reminding me cruella666 I'd like to try Chefs Ginger Rogers as it gets some great reviews, but have never managed to find it in stock!!

Not so keen on GVC if the clone is anything to go by Others will disagree, but to me the clone tastes absolutely nothing like gvc (if it did I would have saved an absolute fortune by now !!) I've come to the conclusion that ddl in a custard mix isn't for me (and if it's actually in real gvc then I honestly can't taste it). The combinations of custard ingrediants are endless - but Cap VC plus some sort of french vanilla/vanilla swirl/Vanillin plus then try adding in other things you think may help like graham cracker, different creams etc...Or not, there's a lot to be said for keeping it simple ( note to self - TAKE OWN ADVICE and stop obsessing over custard!!)

I can do the 7th, or any other Sunday in Feb (other than the 21st). Weekends are best for me too - I'm useless after work these days. No stamina So, if you're free every Saturday except the 21st, I suggest Saturday the 21st. Har har har Chrissie - Same for me with Saturdays (apart from 20th) and happy to travel up the county
