Why do I see the same pct to ml in both of them? Did you copy the right one? Or should I get my eyes checked?

I have the same problem. Very little nicotine and not enough throat hit. I also use 40/60 with my bacco mixes. There are some flavors with more dryness to them if you happen to like what you can find. INW Dirty Tobacco Neutral (dnb) might be one to check out. Hopefully @SquirrelSmash will pipe in. I have more experience with pipe tobacco because I used to smoke a lady’s pipe. I’ve been exploring the Super Concentrate line recently and will contribute what I can find.

As you have a high VG content I’d first suggest increasing the Black for Pipe to at least 1.75% and dropping the Soho to around 3.5%. As Soho is a rather nutty and smooth tobacco, I’ve found that it takes on sweetness very easily.
@muth is right in suggesting Dirty Neutral Base (DNB) as it’ll do more to counteract the sweetness than with Black for Pipe (BfP) alone. Although, pairing BfP with Bitters (VTA) or Bitter Wizard (FA) can be a better option if you want a bitter concentrate with a wider range of uses than DNB.
Oh, and if in doubt, add more Lovage!

Hehe, I hate to tell, because it’ll make me seem like even MORE of a fanboy than I already am. @muth …
It's completely clear !!!!
Dark Chocolate (MF) 0.5% (09-24-18) – I knew this one was going to be one of the Heavy Hitters from Medicine Flower, but held off on testing it, until now. Having mixed quite a bit of this up, was interested to see exactly HOW good it was, solo. Chocolate seems to be one of the hardest flavors to get right, but somehow (through their extraction process) MF has managed to absolutely capture the entire essence of a Dark Chocolate with this one, AND, it’s completely clear. Clear you say, sure, you have TPA DCC, and it’s pretty clear, but it can’t touch this one. I think it’s far to say when comparing the many chocolates I have, this one and TPA DCC are similar, but after that, they are not in the same league. This one is a delightfully (yes I said that) Dark Chocolate, with NO off putting notes. No need to tweak, add to it, push or pull it, right out of the bottle delicious, full, sweet enough, creamy, and dark, RIGHT out of the bottle (after steeping) and even @ 0.5%. Wow, and more wow, doesn’t even come close. It is dense enough to be very full at this strength, with no overowering notes, nothing artificial, and does appear to be a fairly complex blend that most others cannot compete with. Dark almost implies it will be, well, dark, but it’s almost assumed it would be bitter, or maybe dry, but NOT with this one. Somehow they’ve come up with a just about perfect blend of darker chocolates, just the right amount of sweetness, but with plenty of “mid-body” that carries it through to a much fuller chocolate than just a “dark” chocolate. I’ve heard @Pro_Vapes rant and rave about tossing all of his chocolates after trying this one, and now I see why. If you are in the mood for a full, creamy, dark and full bodied chocolate, you cannot go wrong with this one. At some level, 10/10 doesn’t seem to come close, but it will have to do.
… and I have never had any gunking due to it. Everything gunks, but when I was testing it, I observed, literally no gunking.

Heehee, I know people poke fun at your Lovage and I haven’t used it myself yet but I do know it can be advantageous to some tobacco mixes.

It’s barely passable for me; i get some kind of offnote and i wouldn’t buy it again.
I’d say get Banana Flambee Solub > i hear Soft Banana MB & Banana Ripe FR are supposed to be good > Banana Nut Bread, Banana Custard VTA, Ripe Banana SSA are workable for me > Puree WF > others are garbage for me except Banana Creams TPA/LA which i somehow don’t use anymore.

Thx for your honest opinion. I haven’t used LA in years but I remember it being a soft realistic banana. That is if my bottle is still good. I’ll keep the others in mind.

Pretty darn good, i should have used OOO powdered sugar instead of flv frosting, didn’t even think about it till after it cooled and i added nic. RF black label french toast is good enough to vape by itself anyway, oh well lol

Yes I have that flavour and I like it. For some reason I could never get on with LA Banana Cream as I find it artificial and rather astringent a bit like nail polish remover or that note that’s in pear drops, I much prefer TPA’s version which I find softer and more realistic and creamy. It just goes to show how differently we perceive flavours and a classic example of taste being subjective.

Yum…I just made a mix using Cinnamon Crunch and Maple Bar. Haven’t tested it yet but looking forward to it. I’ve got your flavors, I’ll give it a try, thx for the share.

True. Maybe what pcts we use and what we vape on including wattage levels change our perception, too. Just a thought.

If you have one on one powdered sugar i would sub it in place of the flv frosting at maybe 0.3%, would make it better lol but then again i always put powdered sugar on my French toast in real life so I’m biased lol

Thx for the tip. I’ll have to stick to the OG cause I don’t have the powdered sugar. I’ve never used it before.

I just remember people saying that the LA (colorless) was the one to use, not the OG Banana Cream. I don’t know if they were referring to just the bad stuff in the coloring or the overall flavor. This was right when I was starting DIY. You probably know more about that and I would be curious to know.
