The sweet and tart sounds like a good sub, let me know how it turns out.
@anon36682625 always good to hear from you brother. Try subbing the FLV Coconut for the Sweet Coconut and let me know, with my bad memory I will probably forget to try it myself when I get home lol
Use it very low like 0.25% to 0.50% or dilute it 10% in 90% PG and use 2.50% to 5% and it’ll steep faster. It’s expensive but when used that low it’s on par with with the others and imo the best strawberry for fruit mixes.
When it comes to strawberry and definitely orange I will always add more than one version of the fruit. ie… strawberry ripe/strawberry sweet (or FA red touch Strawberry) Orange? I actually mix three FA Blood Orange, TPA Nectarine, and Caps Sweet Tangerine if I don’t they fade really bad.
I use sweet coconut FLV in all cream mixes these days (a tip Simon brought up and it makes a huge difference) I will do 1% if I really want coconut flavoring and 0.25% if I want to make my creams creamier. I look at these as actually being less expensive in the long run because I use less per mix
I’ve got a couple of flavours in different varietys but I’ll have to buy more to compliment others. That’s why it’s handy knowing which other flavours or enhancers bring certain fruits and creams through. With the help of people on here I’m slowly learning
I have just made this and it smells amazing, I’ve ordered a game changer and I’m waiting patiently for it. That said, what do you recommend the steep time should be ? I’ve not used honey before but heard they can take a while.
I always try things right away, even before getting the GC. Then let it sit for a week, then 2 weeks and so forth. The FLV Coconut does need to settle down, being a cream based recipe I would say 4 weeks steep but that is just a guess
