[REQ] Charlie's Custard

Nice detective work @wvsanta , but don’t forget the nic (also likely in PG) …so maybe 21% flavoring. Also can they refer to Aqueous VG as “VG” (?) so could include some water and/or some PGA? Could get that actual % of flavorings down under 20%

Heh one Man’s “transparency” is another Man’s “disinformation” :wink:

Still super cool to be able to interact …even possibly in person. I don’t think Matthew is too worried about 10 people around the world being able to (attempt!) clone his product

I do find it strange that I can’t seem to locate any info on the internet where people are trying to clone Charlie’s Custard; some of their other flavors, yes, but not the custard. :thinking:

Anyone ever have luck with this? I admit, I kinda gave up after reading there’s no cheesecake in the Charlie’s. Started to doubt my taste buds a lil bit. lol But, I pulled out the Charlie’s this morning and started vaping it again. Decided to give it another go. I’m going to vape it a bunch today on my RDA, at different temps, and in one of my tanks too. I want to see if there’s a big difference in flavor depending on temp and device. I’ll try to come back tonight and let ya’ll know what I figure out, if anything.

I gave this one a go, but as noted, it still needs work on the vanilla cake creaminess as in the original. :pensive:

I’ve just looked on the site and there seems to be mixed reviews. Like 5-1 stars?
Is this just displayed like that to give customers a fairer spectrum of reviews? I would of thought you would have your best upto date reviews up there for sales!

I have a friend that is addicted to the stuff. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: To me, it’s mediocre at best. However, I told him that I’d try and clone it for him; he blows through 30 to 60ml a week.

Personally, even with my own ADV, I don’t see how anyone can vape the same juice, day in and day out for months on end! :scream: Variety is key for me. But, to each their own and whatever keeps you off the stinkies! :wink:

Never had it but:

“A rich, silky custard, homemade with a perfect balance of vanilla and baked crust.”

“Homemade” - maybe try mixing some flavors to get the vanilla custard instead of using (CAP)VC2

“Baked Crust” - (TPA)Graham Cracker Crust, (TPA)Graham Cracker Clear, (TPA)Pie Crust

“vanilla” - (CAP) French Vanilla or straight up (CAP)VC2

Chuck in some (FA)cream fresh for good measure…

I think he just released the PB cereal recipe. Do a Google fu on that and you will see. With the deeming they had to cut way down on nics and liquids sold. They consisted all their bottles to 60 ml and made the 20 dollars a pop. Great deal if you ask me. Just picked up pistachio and am enjoying every sing hit of it. Makes me want to clone this puppy.
@prettymatthew CN gas come up with some very interesting flavors. I brought in the captain gray and the other slushy one and had people going the next day to the local vape store to go get them. Thank you for your continued support of vaping and flavors.

Thanks for the shout-out.

We released PB Cereal as the first in a series of discontinued flavor recipe shares. We just figured that if we were going to kill the flavor off, there were still people out there who enjoyed the liquid, just not enough to make it financially worth keeping it in the regular rotation. Between manufacturing costs, labor, ingredients, time on the fill line, and now PMTA and TPD certification, if it doesn’t earn its keep, we had to let it go.

I will be releasing more recipes as we get past thanksgiving, and into the new year. I’m aiming for one a month, but Thanksgiving kind of messed up the schedule, so probably more like the second week of December.

Appreciate all of you in the vape community, and the DIY community, doing your part to help protect this beautiful thing we have created.

97% of VG e liquids use or are using palm oil derived Glycerin

A simple answer is NO THEY WILL BE THE SAME SPECIFIC GRAVITY weight.

See the attached spec sheets. The second is palm oil derived and the first soya bean or grape seed derived.

However saying that we have come across some suppliers, supplying AG - Aqua Glycerin which is VG with 10-20% water added. Hence the viscosity will become thinner as water has a specific weight of approx 1. Easy to check by weighing a sample of your vg

Two things here with vegetable glycerine
Palm oil or derivatives of meaning made from are being banned worldwide in any foods as an ingredients. All the major retailers such as P&G, Westfarmers aka Coles in Australia are requiring suppliers to prove and re lab test all ingredients used to produce foods NOT to contain palm oils of any sort.

EU regs have changed under the new food safety standards (ISO 22000), as well as NZ, UK and Australia. It is very common for all jurisdictions to follow or adopt the same regs. So may be a good idea, there should be no difference in taste, sugar levels, or odour it will depend on the specs that you are purchasing. Not all oil are oils. Same with chemicals, may have the same name, chemical composition though will not taste or smell the same.
Take Propylene glycol for example of that.
