I have a slightly hard time with fruits. I just vaped orange the other day and I thought within the hour I’d be wearing a toe tag. Stupid me gets up the next morning and grabs the same dripper forgetting what was in it and hit it again.
I don’t get the weird flavors like you do though. Most just kick me in the back of the throat before clawing their way down. But this is only every once in awhile. I have a berry melon juice I make called Sweet Dreamer that I never have a problem with. It’s really sweet and really fruity.
If you like I can send you some samples of some of the fruity liquids I vape and you can see if you like any of them before pouring them down the drain lol.
Mighty kind offer friend but I don’t wanna waste your juice. I know I couldn’t vape it. When I first got into vaping, I looked up all the shops in the city then drove to each one sampling flavors. It did not go well and it was the inspiration that lead me here lol.
I knew fruits were possible because one juice I did like was Sick Twisteds’ Purple Pain. There’s a clone of it here on ELR that’s awesome and simple to make. I made that in the beginning so I’d have something to vape while experimenting with DIY. I’m betting it’s the stevia, that’s the only thing I haven’t tried yet.
I actually don’t mind Stevia. I thought I had that Capella Concord Grape with Stevia. I coulda swore I ordered it. I will now. Thanks for sharing the info. Grapes are one of my favorite fruits.
Hey Mofogger…I am curious about a few things, as I have primarily been experimenting with standalone fruits…What PG/VG ratio are you mixing with?..What brand fruit flavorings are you using?..How long are you steeping?..What devices are you vaping on ?..I have experienced those harsh things you have described and have been working my ass off experimenting with PG/VG ratios…%s of flavoring …post mixing processes for my mixes…steeping procedures and times…I have pretty much figured out how to get rid of the harshness…and am still working on obtaining “full bodied” flavor…Also what PG and VG brands are you using?..What Nic brand are you using?..Sometimes your base ingredients can be the culprit to the problem…Please share …and I will be happy to share my experience to get rid of that harshness…took me about 3 months to figure some things out and develop a few techniques that have worked for me… …LordVapor…I would take you up an that offer…and return the favor in kind…
Last time I looked in a grocery store every single Stevia product contained both erythritol and Rebiana. Rebiana is the stevia extract, I believe. Erythritol is not known to have any bad side effects, but the combination of the two should have a different flavor than a pure stevia extract (whether that’s good or bad, I don’t know). I’ve seen a lot of opinions about stevia both good and bad, but most times it’s hard to know whether people are talking about a pure extract like you’d need to order online vs the grocery store stuff.
If you wanna try the pure stevia but don’t want to order from OSDIY, Amazon sells the same brand in a 2 oz (60ml) dropper bottle for about 10 dollars with free shipping. Although looking closer at the details this also contains maltodextrin, so calling that pure stevia that confounds me…
It was Stevia!!! AWESOME!!! So friggin happy now!!!
Ok, so I ran down to Wally World and in the baking isle with sugar and stuff; they had organic liquid “Pyure Stevia”
Transferred this to a better dripping bottle and added 2% to a 20mL bottle of watermelon I’ve been fighting with. Gave it a good shake and 30minz in a bowl of hot water. Now I’m vapin it and it’s amazing! Actually tastes like juicy watermelon!
A little too sweet maybe… Gonna try 1% or maybe 0.5% to dial it back a bit. 2% is still natural melon but I can tell I’m on the edge of jolly rancher candy.
Thank you for your offer to help @Flavor_Alchemist but I believe this has just fixed all of my fruit issues. I can’t express how good this is now. Still vapin while typing lol. I’ve been fighting this for 2 months and finally figured it out, just gotta dial in the %
No longer harsh or dry, very smooth and sweet. Makes the mouth water and there is zero chemical or plastic taste. Almost seems like it has thickened the vape, truly epic flavor! I was worried cause my folks use this to make sweet tea and I reeeaaaaly don’t like their tea but in vape; this works extremely well for me.
I see from a little digging that that brand has a bit of apple cider vinegar and citric acid in it. That is probably helping to make the fruit flavor pop.
I was just in Walmart and forgot to grab some of that Pyure. I knew I needed something from there. But as usual I just walked through like a Zombie Sheep going Baaah, Baaah, Groan, Baaah. And I walked out with the usual garbage knowing I would regret my decision to walk out the door with my purchases.
Just want to add, prior to using Medicine Flower extracts, I’ve never had an ejuice to be too sweet. Now it is happening sometimes. My only choices seem to be to add something to sour it or dilute it.
Same question, been throught this thread and it would be handy to know the results. Thank you in advance. [quote=“Chewy, post:67, topic:18175, full:true”]
Anyone else had much success with the Pyure stevia product?

An excellent sweetener that I use is FA Pear. You can use 1% for a nice sweet taste without adding any flavor past 1% since it is a soft flavor unlike TFA Pear which is much harder than FA. I like them both but use them in different ways. I only use FA Pear to sweeten period.
I know @Mofogger and @LordVapor both like the Pyure liquid drops. @SthrnMixer gives it 5 stars in his flavor rating. Haven’t heard any negative reviews of that brand. Just don’t get one that has filler sweeteners like erythritol or dextrose as those at best will have a rotten aftertaste or at worst will just burn up and gunk your coils.
I’ve not had any noticeable increase in gunking with the bit I’ve used. It’s done a great job at sweetening without introducing unwanted flavors. Have you tried it yet? I would love to hear more people’s impressions.
Not yet, the Walmarts around here don’t seem to carry it, and Amazon won’t have any for 3 more days, so it looks like I won’t have any for mixing this weekend. But it’s on my to-do list.
edit: I ordered last night and Amazon sent a shipping notification today despite the backorder, so maybe I will have it Saturday!
edit2: and I just got a notification that it’s been delieverd
