Hello,
I have been vaping for nearly 2 years now and have gotten into making my own juices. I have my Menthol/Peppermint juice down where I like it. I am having HUGE problems when I use TFAs Cinnamon Red Hots and Cinnamon. In my test batch, the flavor is great. When I change it to a 30ml batch (using the ecigvape.com calculator, the sweetness that I add is very good, but the cinnamon is clearly there, but while to sugar hits my tongue and that is where I taste it, the cinnamon flavors (this is very hard to describe...unless you have also experienced it) don't seem to hit my tongue. The only way I know to explain it is like if you coated a balloon with the cinnamon flavors and the put the balloon in your mouth, but is only touched the sides and roof of you mouth and a general "hollow" cinnamon flavor on my tongue.
It seems no matter what percentage of cinnamon type flavors I use, it feels empty (for lack of a better word). Like I said, I can taste cinnamon, but only on the periphery of my mouth and that is not at all satisfying.
I have used as high as 14% Red Hots and 6% cinnamon. The recipe is as follows (using that as just an example:
PG 7.65ml (25.5%)
VG 9ml (30%
Red Hots 4.2ml (14%)
Cinnamon 1.8ml (6%)
Sweetener 2.25ml (7.5%)
Not a lot goes into the ingredients, but I have tasted e-juice from ECBlend...their "Vannimin Hots" to be specific and it is GREAT!!!! I get the whole flavor on my tongue where it belongs and also it has all of the other attributes, like throat hit, vapor, flavor, etc.
I am at a loss. I use an ultrasonic cleaner and warm water to help steep the juice. I shake if like crazy. I have let it sit for as much as a week and although the flavor DID mature, it still feels "hollow" to me.
Any help or advice or examples of cinnamon based juice recipes that have worked would be great.
Thank you very much for your time.
Best wishes,
Steven
