Ok, I just mixed up some Olde Tyme Rootbeer. This stuff is pretty good, but in the recipe I made something is giving a bit of a throat hit. I kinda like it, but I am finding myself cutting off the vape sooner than I normally would. Here is the recipe…
I know it will smooth out with a bit of steeping. So I think this is going to be a good juice in a week or two. The rootbeer flavoring is just a tad weak even at 12%. But it’s a really good flavor. Any thoughts on what I can add to it to give the rootbeer flavor a little more kick? So far, the OSDIY flavors are great in my book. I really want to try their Southern Sweet Tea flavor.
I will try that this weekend along with Kimberly’s Wintergreen recommendation. I think it just needs a good steep. And the throat hit was from the flavors containing alcohol. I didn’t remember that when I was vaping it lol.
This has turned out quite well. Customer is happy with it, and I kinda like it too considering I am not real big on fruity vapes. I may still work on it a bit. Maybe I will add a little FA Blackcurrant to it. I may raise the Raspberry sweet a tad too. Anyone else that has this OSDIY Blue Slushie flavoring I would love to see some other attempts at creating this.
Great! I want to buy some more flavors from them. 2 for 2 so far are good enough I will buy them again. I need to work on the root beer recipe. The flavor is a tad weak. But it’s at least a flavor I can work with. Actually the same goes for the blue slushie flavor. But I wouldn’t have gotten this juice to taste like this without it.
I know what you mean. That is why I took ocmack’s recipe and added the Concord Grape w/Stevia. It gave it some body and a little more sweetness. I don’t think it would be as good without it.
You mean Kimberly? She is the one I was dealing with. Very nice people!
Of course, when I was in Colorado, everyone there was really nice. So much so it made me want to move there. The fact that everywhere you looked was breathtaking didn’t hurt either.
Edit: raspberry sweet should be TFA. Only the cream is another brand (FW). Wasn’t in stock when I was getting supplies.
Edit 2: this is only my 3rd time mixing btw, I’m on to a winer. I’m thinking of lower everything to 1% apart from the raspberry + marshmallow, bump up the blue slush to 8%.
Hey @LordVapor … Do you buy stevia ready made? Make it yourself? How is it different from EM? I use cotton candy a lot and do find that if I make a big batch of something the flavors fade. I need sweet and lots of it but am having trouble getting it to work the way I want. Could stevia be my answer?
I just bought 50g of Rebaudioside A 95% powder - I made a 10% dilution - 1g powder in 9g of PG - shook, gently heated, and shook some more until it was dissolved
EM isn’t really a sweetener… It brings out inherent sweetness of flavors, but doesn’t really sweeten. As you’ve discovered, it also mutes flavors over time.
Most here use marshmallow as a sweetener I’m going to try using this stevia stuff soon
The Stevia I got was liquid Pyure Organic Stevia from Walmart. When I add it to fruits, it brightens and sweetens the fruit flavors. I will be using it in place of Marshmallow if it keeps working this good. So far I love it.
Thanks guys! I’ve tried marshmallow and it’s pretty good but there’s one juice I’m trying g to replicate and I just can’t get it sweet enough with marshmallow (both FA & TPA). I’m going to try the stevia and see how that works.
