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!

Awe yeaha! I think I’m the only one in my family that likes Rootbeer. How do you like to use it? I checked and you don’t use it in your public recipes.

I use it in a rootbeer float recipes between 2-2.5. Works well for me.

Lime, blood orange and rich cinnamon are very good.

Thanks, bud! Were the other ones not to your liking, or have you not tried them? I’m going to try everything but the Clove and Red Cinnamon.
Really intrigued by Wood Spice. I’ve been looking for something that can get close to a Cedar note, to be used verrrry sparingly, of course.

Yep! I talked with Aaron at FLV about these yesterday morning. The non-PG are either Ethyl Alcohol based or just Extracts with natural liquid from that process (paraphrasing). He was super helpful and friendly.

Those are just the ones I’ve tried that are on the list. Rich Cinnamon is super strong, and the lime is pretty damn strong too.

Thanks! Yeah, I’ve been paying attention to comments, tips and recipes with FLV for a while. Planning on trying these at one (maybe two) drop(s) in 15ml and working up for SFTs.
I’ve seen some negative reviews on FLV and I always assume(presume) that they tried it too high and gave up.
