I received a vapemail few hours ago, and among the concentrates I've ordered it was a gift... A Booster flavour concentrate from FA...
I said nice and initially I thought it was something like smooth, sour, sweetener, etc... something that would improve your mix... I googled it, and it says it's the original Italian Tiramisu flavor and its suggested proportion is 1%, but the majority of the people using it in about 4%...
I will give it a try later, on its own (suggested steeping time of about 6 hours) but was wondering is there's any recipe about it... or any suggestions about using it in a mix...

You welcome jacq!!! If you go to the manufacturer's website about this product (http://www.bombies.com/nana-cream/), it says "Mellow fruits like banana and strawberry are blended together with candied fruits and berries to deliver a complex, delectable all day vape." What confuses me is that I cannot see any "berries", apart of strawberry and also cannot see any "candied fruits" apart of pear  for example I would expect to see in those recipes something like e.g. banana candy... |

in many cases, in most of the VG bases you can find in the market, VG is much more sweeter than the PG...At least that's what you "feel"... I do not think that the majority of the vapers, have such strong taste buds so they can distinguish minor changes in VG/PG ratio...
Having a mix of 50/50, and a mix of 70/30 (VG/PG), most of the vapers will find the second one being sweeter, mainly because that the first one is too sharp and the second one is smoother and not because it's sweeter... it's just that the brain "translate" the smoother as sweeter, and the sharper as bitter, especially if your taste buds are not quite sensitive and not well trained...
But having a mix of 70/30 (VG/PG) and a mix of 80/20 (VG/PG), I guess only a 2-3% of the vapers will notice any difference... unless your taste buds are that strong and sensitive...
For whoever is in mood of practicing, just make a batch of 50/50 and add quite a bit of freshly prepared Ethyl Maltol; and also make a batch of 80/20 (VG/PG) with no sweetener at all and give them a try... there's a chance to find the 50/50 batch more sweet than the 80/20 one...

Well... confusing indeed... and full of dead links... I would give a try to one of the following...
Autre (s) Version (s)
Pear (TFA): 6%
Strawberry Ripe (TFA): 5%
Banana Ripe (TFA): 3%
Banana Cream (TFA): 0.5%
Honey Dew (TFA): 1%
Juicy Peach (TFA): 0.5%
Marshmallow (TFA): 1%
Sweet Cream (TFA): 1%
Sour (20% in PG) (TFA): 1%
V3
4% Pear TFA
4% Banana Cream TFA
4% Strawberries and Cream TFA
3% Banana CAP
2% Strawberry LA
0.5% Sour TFA
The first recipe they had, at the top of the recipe page, is
For 10ml
0.5 ml Banana Cream
0.3 ml Dragon Fruit
0.8 ml Strawberries
Additive (s)
0.05 ml Malic Acid (it adds the sour effect in sweet e-liquids)

Depends on the concentrate jacqAll the known and respected manufacturers have a kind of suggested proportion for each concentrate... most of the times you can find it in the description tag of the concentrate... |

Well... getting old sometimes means that you think there was something somewhere... same thing is happening to me the late days... I thought that Chefs had an option of getting 100ml TPA concentrates but cannot find such a thing on their e-shop... was it my idea? am i really getting that old?

Well... I used the one from UK Flavours... in the following mix...
2% Rhubarb
3% Apple
5% Vanilla Custard
1% Vanilla Cream
2% Pie Crust
it reminded me a lot of that Apple & Rhubarb Custard Pie...

Why not using WFI (Water For Injection) instead of other types of water?
I never had such symptoms with PG, but the only one it gets me is an eternal cough that makes my throat like a mop... coughing too much, just like an old mule which is one step defore its relocation to Heaven...
There are so few e-liquids that contain more that 30-40% of PG that I can stand and usually making my DIY with 90% VG-10% PG...
Basically it depends on the quality of the PG and the funny thing is that the base I am using the last couple of months and am fully satisfied is Pink Mule's purple one, 70%VG-30% PG which also contains a bit of sweetener... (it's also very thick, so I am using 15%-20% of WFI)
