One thing to try that a few mixers have given positive feedback on is mixing in a little bit of FLV Sweet Coconut to battle the dryness / savory note that comes with doing Peanut Butter

Thatās interesting, I can see how that could work. Is there something special about flv sweet coconut? I donāt have that exact one but I do have severalā¦

The creaminess from it is what works well with Peanut Butter and it is fairly versatile. Here is a quick breakdown of it from Concrete River starting around the 12 min mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G463JGYMBuY&t=720s

Thanks. The reason I ask is I got this the first week of November and mixed a 5% SF. I liked it at the time of mix, but it tasted like it needed a steep. Then at 2 weeks was a little fainter. At one month fainter still. Then at some point in month 2 it came back to life. Now itās really amazing to me. Iām trying my best to let it steep more because I have a feeling this will be the secret ingredient to some amazing mixes.

Many of us work with purilum flavors, but I donāt think any of us work with just that brand. Most of these flavors take a long time too steep, and probably one of the reasons not many use just one brand. Also while PUR isnāt a bad brand, itās lacking flavor profiles that other brands have already done or done better.
If you list the flavors you have or want to work with, as well as the profile you like to archive, maybe we can give some advise and suggestions. Otherwise take a look at mixers like @Silhouette, she works a lot with these and maybe even has a couple PUR only recipes.

thanks for the response! i am wanting to work with fruit and dessert. especially a good raspberry and watermelon, the watermelon just seems harsh the high ive used it, opposed to a TFA watermelon i could use a 9% and it will be flavorful and not harsh. simply cake and strawberry yogurt are also great, just needing to figure out what pairs best with them

I actually found some starting percentages with the PUR Watermelon around 0.5-7%. I would definetly start at a lower percentage, maybe 3% for a full Watermelon. Sometimes I find some PUR flavors more potent than TPA (to me at least). I havenāt actually worked with many of their fruit flavors, mostly creams, but there are tons of good flavor notes here for percentages.

We were having a discussion about the Country Apple, the other night, on its potency. I dont use a lot of their stuff but the ones i do use i think im going to retest in single flavor.

are you referring to the 3% as a single flavor or a percent for pairing with other flavors?

Heck, either or. Me personally, I like lower percentages. Thatās just me. If itās a strong flavor, I SF Test at like 0.5%. But for middle road potency I do 1-2%.

ive used 20-25% usually, heck even higher sometimes, but thats with other flavor companies which i think sometimes level out the higher the percentage. this puriulm is really testing my patience lol

I tested purilum watermelon at 6% single flavor and it was a nice flavorful vape. Not harsh at all. A bit more candy like than real watermelon though.

I did a small test last year of purilium mixed with other brands and purilium on its own mixed with its own. I found that purilium to me, tastes best with its own. Around 8-10%. Purilium is good and has a lot of good stuff but tends to be on the weak side if used in max vg mixes.
Purilium to me now, is also best when used as rhe centerpiece then use some powerful brands to support it.
Latest mix was 9.4% purilium butter pecan ice cream, .3% hangsen French ice cream and .2% flavor revolution cream brƻlƩe. Steep 1-2 days. Max vg.

This is simply an example of purilium mixed with its own. Didnāt put much thought into it but surprisingly, it tastes like an old fashioned fruit salad I had as a very young Marine. Lol as far as country apple goes, I added it in too. More like a yellow delicious with no peel. Very similar in taste of a two week old apple thatās been sitting under refrigeration. Good yet somewhat bland. It worked here though.
