What Flavor Are You Vaping Right Now?

Here's what I came up with earlier, haven't mixed it yet, and of course never having had the original I really can't say this is anything but my own recipe for something I'd call SCM after developing it from looking at a recipe for caramel macchiato the way Starbucks makes it.

I placed an ECX order today and got the FW Salted Caramel to mix this, so when it comes, I'll do that and see what's what.

And I don't know why the crazy thing says "Yesterday" because I put this together today! Jeez.

ETA: Hell, I just might mix this now and use regular FA Caramel. Got me thinking about it now.

ETA2: I'm just not up to it tonight. Maybe in the morning. Today has kicked my ass already, I'm done!


Thanks for this! You’ve added some interesting flavors like cinnamon that I wouldn’t have considered. You must cook some nifty stuff!

They asked me for a batch # and that is how far I got with them- I think I will just get some of the White Peach flavoring from Bull City Flavors and see if I can make it more peachy.
Hey I bought 7 bottles- really sux that everyone is going thru this, but this used to be one of my favorite flavors and it is definitely different this time.
I had never had to deal with their customer service before this- not impressed. Not gonna push it if they just send me the same stuff again.
Serene has been the only flavor I have been buying from OM in the last year- I tried many of the other flavors, they were OK but not enough to repurchase again.
I bought some SauceLA Awesometown Peach Passion- another letdown- very weak peach flavor- so don't buy that one either.

:gaah::cuss2::tantrum:


It almost sounds like Peach flavoring has changed or something since both companies’ juice was affected. Strange.

Barista Brew - - Salted Caramel Macchiato.

Dangerous Woman- - Cleopatra salts.


I’ve been vaping the SCM now for over a week straight now, and it’s not getting old! I think I may be coming down with a cold since I’m stuffed up but it still tastes good.

ETA Recipe Edit, change Cap Super Sweet to FW Sweetener, reduce to 0.5%, bump WF Brazilian Coffee to 1%

@marter and @Rhianne I've mixed this, made a couple tweaks, now to let it steep. I don't have the FW Salted Caramel yet so mixed with FA Caramel instead. Right now this is a sweet, caramel-ly, milky/creamy light coffee flavor. The Brazilian Coffee flavoring may not be quite boisterous enough to carry the level of milk and caramel. Depends on how strong you want the coffee. I think it's going to be fine for me, but I am not a fan of very strong coffee. For others, an actual plain espresso flavor may work better in place of just the Brazilian Coffee.

Just tasting this new mix on my hand I do notice the difference in it and CWC. There is no bakery and maple, this is really more of a beverage flavor than CWC. My CWC has a buttery note to it that is not present in this mix. Interesting experiment for me, thanks!

Yummy! We need to have a VU recipe book with a red and white checkered cover like the old cookbooks I have!

Thanks, keep me posted. I've made a couple attempts, and have a pretty decent coffee vape, some cream, slightly sweet, a little caramel, but the caramels not coming out like I'd like, neither is the salt. It's definitely missing something that SCM has. I've got some VT Salted Caramel and VT Hard Crack Toffee. Nick Evans used the toffee at 3% and that may help. But he also used Chef's Choice Salted Caramel, maybe there's enough difference there.

I just realized I have some Hangsen Caramel Toffee. I wonder if that would help. Need something to bring out the FW Salted Caramel. Any thoughts?

Anyway here's my best shot so far, with a 17 day steep:

I know TFA Caramel Cappuccino has some detractors....but I’ve been using it for my CWC. I like CWC, but I feel like it needs some bolstering in the coffee/waffle department. It does the trick! I’m still figuring out the percentages on it....but I think under 0.5 will be enough.

for the waffle part, I’ve been using TFA Belgian Waffle with a touch of Sasami Waffle Dough(I know.....it’s a tough one to get). It gives it the crispy edges. I think maybe FW Waffle Cone might do the same thing? I haven’t tried it yet....just thinking of things off the top of my head.

Have you ever tried PUR Caramel Coffee with Sweet Milk? Should I get something to add to it?

After I made a bad mix, I held off for a bit. Now reading these threads, I’d like to try again. Thanks, everyone. I love you guys (and girls. Lol)

Yes and it’s fabulous! if you like stronger coffee, I’d get some WF Brazilian Coffee and add it in at 0.5% increments until you like it. But I think it’s fairly robust(but not overly bitter) as it is. Try it solo first.

I like it solo around 5-6%. Maybe add some Caps Vanilla Whipped Cream for the top.

I’ll have to get the CAP Vanilla Whipped Cream, since I need it for Crom’s Custard. But I do have TFA Vanilla Swirl and PUR VBIC. Yes, they’re not popular flavors but I bought them on sale on my first flavor order. Sigh.

Maybe I’ll just try it solo like you said. I tasted a bit on my finger and it was really strong. It gave me an idea of how flavors change when you vape them

ECX has a sale now but I’m not sure what to get. Right now the fewer flavors in a recipe the better, only because our apartment is so small.

Thanks again. I’ll try it out later tonight! I e got bottles from LB with percentages up the side on a label that have made it easy for me now. Until I have a scale, etc. :hug:

What’s the Aurora like? The creams sound yummy though. Sigh, I have one flavor in that!
It's a citrus flavor- more like zest than juice though & mostly lemon. Very different from all the other citruses or lemons that I have tried. You can almost taste the rind in it & a little bit of lime. I don't usually like cucumber, but some folks say it mixes well with Aurora. I may try that in the future. It's a weird, but pleasant flavor & I'm glad I tried it. If you like lemon, lime or any citrus flavors you will probably like it.

Thanks, I’ve only had lemon in Dinner Lady Lemon Tart, which is pretty yummy though. I don’t eat or drink that much lemony stuff, not even tea w/lemon. I’ll have to work up to a lemon flavor.

I bought some LB Peppermint, and White Chocolate Peppermint since Artemis recommended it. I’m playing it safe after adding PUR Raspberry to a Kings Custard one shot and hating it. Although it tasted better last night after steeping two weeks.

I'm the same in that I don't eat or drink much lemon, but I love me some lemon vapes (I'm the same with strawberry too).
Lemon Meringue Pie, Purplesaurus Rex, 'Lil Poundcake, Lemon Custard Donut & Aurora Dreams are favorites of mine that have a tasty lemon flavor.

The ‘Lil Poundcake sounds great. Now that I think about it, I do really like lemon poundcake. And lemon custard donuts. Lol

I have to get over the fear of making something horrible! But I’ve heard people say that their second or third mixes weren’t stellar, so I’ll try again tonight.
