Ok here’s another WIP, using MF rum,. Decided to be brave and make this one public:
My comments thus far:
I used the KH cream cos that’s the only organic cream in my stash, and thought I might as well keep to the organic theme. You can use MF insread of the BE dilutions, in which case divide the % by 10 (BE is available here: https://vapourdepot.com/product-category/concentrates/brands/botanic-elixir/ )
tasting @ 2 weeks ( a bit too early for an MF mix, but couldn’t wait) :
First puff was so overloaded with cream, i thought I’d drowned everything else! But it all settled down and it seems to be nicely balanced thus far, with all the flavours coming through , except perhaps the honey.
Might try increasing the honey a bit, or maybe try some different sweeteners. And possibly a very slight touch of lemon? So far I;'m quite liking this. I’ll, give it longer to steep before messing with it.

Looks tasty! The tables have turned…I don’t have any of those flavors!

Mwuhahahaha!
Don;t bother with BE pear, go straight to MF!
It’s greatflavour. but it really needs to be at at least 10% (equibalent to 1% MF) IMO, or else it’s just too tantalisingly subtle (might be nice in some recipes but i really want to taste the pear, here) .
After playing with the BE a bit, I’m planning on getting the MF,soon as my wallet stops looking at me like that
The honey is probably best used in BE form mind! or diluted by yourself. It would be way too hard to contol at full MF strength
I will definitely grab those at some point. What’s up with KH? Is it EU or UK specific? Should I just go with a good cream from over here, do you think?

It’s an UK flavour. See here:
Might be worth checking out their shipping costs. Allmost certain to be a damned sight cheaper than your extortionate USA Inernational Shipping rates.
I have fallen in love with their Butter! I only bought it cos I couldn’t find another PG-free butter locally, but I very much doubt you could improve on it. And their lemonade and…
Well, it’s surprisingly good stuff, in the main. My only bitch is it’s so very dilute.
P.S. But yeah, I very much doubt it’s worth a raid on Flavour Hub just for their cream. You’ve got some great cream from NF available over there, I think?

I’ve been using RFSC for most of my creams. FW Whipped Cream is VG, though, and that’s really nice too. I haven’t dialed-in the NF Vanilla Cream that I have yet. I need to do some SF testing on it. I’ve just thrown it in to a couple of recipes and they didn’t really work out.

I’m test-driving this one right now and it’s delicious! 18 days steeped is good, hoping I can leave it alone til the 30 day mark.

Probably not, given the recommended %! Unless it’s really special, I’ll go with a sub. Thanks for the link and info!
yeah, i’ve got the RF SC creams too. They are good. Haven’t used it enough to be sure how the KH compares, but tastes really good in this recipe, IMO. (almost wish I had drowned it in cream chuckle )
I’m tempted to get that FW. I don’t have a whipped cream at all! Is it different enough to be worth it?

ooh that Strawberry Glazed Doughnut sounds really nice, but way to many NF flavours! It’s making me envious, I’ve spent such a ridiculous amount of time time trying to narrow down those bloody great NF bottles to an affordable few . That burnt sugar would definitely be on my shortlist, cos it’s prettymuch unique, I think? at least there’s no PG-free burnt sugar available over here, And I’'m very curious about their fresh baked bread. I’ve found the RF SC version to be overbearingly yeasty (though I’m going to try cutting down the % a bit more. Probably still got it too high. ) . Is the NF one better?
Oh! Might be worth checking out this thread:
@Pro_Vapes just posted a shedload of new recipes there

Not sure if I couldn’t live without the Burnt Sugar, but it is good! Haven’t properly tested it yet, but everything I’ve used it in has been good. Difficult to isolate. I will get off my lazy bum and do a few SF tests asap and get back to you. I can imagine adding to a good Custard to get a Creme Brulee.
The Strawberry Shortcake, on the other hand, I’m about to buy a giant bottle of it now that I’ve run out. That is a great flavor. Mostly SB and Cream with a hint of cake, but it’s creamy and delicious and a nice forward SB. Mellow at 3% when I SF tested it, but totally rocks at 5% in the doughnut recipe.

If you can get it in the UK, it’s definitely worth it. It tastes like an authentic Whipped Cream Topping for a pie, and it’s very good. I have no experience with any other Whipped Creams to compare it to, though.

It really is! I somehow forgot to read up on the recommended % and mixed it at 1.5%! Yikes! I was trying out subbing it for the NF in my Grape PB&J recipe, just to see how it compared. Probably need to drop it to .15% next time.
But, the NF Bread is really really good. It tastes like what it says it is. 1.5% is good. There is a faint hint of baked cinnamon way in the background, so its like an earthy artisan bread, as opposed regular sandwich bread with all the conditioners.

Well, the latesd batch of Kandi Hed Lemonade is substantially different in both appearance and taste ftom previous batches! Much more like a traditional lemonade. Looks like they changed the recipe. I’m sure some will applaud the change but i liked it the way it was!
Luckily , I had some RFSC Lemonade steeping @2% and it’s just hit the 2 week mark , so I’ve tasted it. It’s not dissimilar from the old KH , but, curiously, suffers the reverse problem from their cola! That is, I’m finding that I need to turn the Lemonade up to 20-40 watts ( exact wattage depending on tank/coil ) before I get much flavour and fizz from it. Lower than that, it’s very unimpressive., but at least it doesn’t taste disgusting.
We’ll see what it’s like with a bit more of a steep.
And , ofc, i’m gonna try mixing the two lemonades together at some point, but right now, i’m behind o n my mixing plans, due to illness

Ooh! I think I’ve got my Suimmer vape sorted in plenty of time for summer (was not so lucky with my Christmas vapes- still faffing with those! might be ready for next Christmas) .
I marked this as a WIP (following discussion on another thread) I think it’s probably turned out great first go, though I do need a bit more steep-time to be sure. Would probably wait a while before publishing, but there’s such a dearth of PG-free recipes in the data base, that swung it for me.
my notes on the recipe, thus far
The Kandi Hed Elderflower and cream come from Flavour Hub in UK. Go easy if subbing! They are very dilute ( recommended @ 15%)
first tasting @3 weeks steep: possibly a bit too subtle, but otherwise, everything I wanted. Fresh strawberry top note, sozzled in sparking champagne, with a little bit of cream to top it off, and subtle floral note of elderflower floating in on the breeze. Totally summery!
I’m gonna let this steep some more, and then maybe up the strawberry % a tad.
Of course this might just be one of those infatuations-at-first-taste, that I live to reget .

Ooos! i copied the recipe by accident, and posted the new copy! I’ve now changed the link to the original, to preserve the date, and deleted the other, To my immense surprise, the copy has already been read seven times! It’s not like anybody’s following me , so i was really gobsmacked by this. Apologies for messing those seven people about (if they’re reading this). but yeah, I know , i know they probably just shrugged and moved on 
It’s not like I’m Amy, is it?

I just went through every Liquid Barn flavor, since they are listing the base ingredients very clearly. Ive found some PG-free flavors I was not aware of. Hope some are winners!
