Artificial sweeteners

If you guys really want sweet juice, try PinkSpotVapours their juices are really quite sweet especially the one called Pink Spot.

 

Nah ccc im just after a little sweetener for my diy. I have about 50 bottles of tpa, loranns and flavorart bottles here that i must use lol.

 

Let me know how u go with that.. Sounds like a good idea doing it that way.

 

Yeah I'll check out their site again.. But is postage expensive do u remember? Would u say all their juices (that u've tried) are in general sweeter than other companies?

 

Postage is around 17 i think. They are probaly one of the most expensive juice companies but still cheaper than smoking. I really dig all of their cocktail kind of flavours. You would probably like the lolly types but you can get lolly types from local vendors for cheaper. I would hate for you to spend heaps on pinkspot then not like it.

 

Yeah.. I might wait for now. I'm a bit low on cash atm.. which is part of the reason why I ask so many questions about products. .comse I don't really have money to waste on stuff that isn't going to be suited to me. I'm sure from what I've heard they do make good juices. Maybe when/if I get a bit of work down the track and don't have to be stressing about $$ so much.
Thanks heaps tho CCC!

 

Try dessolve a couple of Equal tabs into your juice. No calories

 

VG is sweet, easy to find and cheap to buy from the supermarket.

 

I just remembered this thread CCC started - http://forums.canukvapers.com/general-e-cig-discussion/3848-pg-vg-test.html

Some good info on PG, VG sweetness and other stuff like vapour production. I think it comes down to brand? For me I've always found it hard to taste. - when vaping that is, not directly putting it in my mouth

I don't think sweetener is a must have like I used to...EM is more useful. Still worth having some around though, a bit of extra sweetness can def, bring something a bit crap into something tasty. You can use certain flavours that are sweeter in the same way (which is what heaps of people do)

 

Hi Chrisso

Thanks for the link to that thread. I hadn't read it before and it is very interesting. There's obviously a big difference between the various brands of VG.

I wonder if anyone has done any tests.

I've got some from VapeBar, Vape King and HC. I haven't noticed a difference but I haven't actually been looking for it. I will do some tests once I get over the flu and can taste properly again.

Del says that she adjusts sweetness using the PG/VG levels. Maybe it all depends on the brand of VG being used.

 

I put 8ml of PG in a small 10ml bottle, added 2ml of the "sugarless sweetas" sweetner and gave it a 5 second zap in the microwave to warm it and let it mix together.
Have been adding about 2 drops of this to my 10ml DIY mixes and its working great.

 

Yeh I am finding vapes not sweet enough so getting some Stevia from here http://www.naturallysweet.com.com

Ive tried all the health food shops here to no avail. 8(

 

whats stevia like in coffee ?
taste the same .. or is it different somehow, i don't like sweeteners but would like to get away from sugar a bit.

 

Suppose to be pretty close to sugar.

Stuff it, that mob want 15 for 150ml which is pretty good, but then hit you uo 9 in postage.

Might try dissolving stevia in some heated PV

 

just bought 30g of the pure powder from https://www.nirvanahealthproducts.com/products/nirvana-organics-stevia.html
cost $7.60 standard post, so was $19.20 all up .. bonus they take paypal but you have to register.

 

Im into sugar, but the wife does sweetners. She generally uses splenda in coffee/tea. I got her a packet of the stevia tabs, the same type of ones that splenda comes in thinking they must all taste the same. I didnt think twice about it or mention it and made her a cup of coffee with them one day, but she noticed straight away and didnt like it lol! So it must taste a little different to splenda. They sort of fizzled a little like asprin as they dissolved, but cant imagine pure powder doing that so you should be good. Let us know what you think of it.

 

VK have this available now to sweeten juices. I haven't tried it yet.. May do in my next order!
Liquid Sweetener

 

I read this before buying some and came to the conclusion that the different fillers they use obviously makes a huge difference http://foodwatch.com.com/blog/product-review-stevia-sweeteners-side-by-side.html
Filler obviously makes it unuseable in vaping so it was liquid or pure form, 30g would be a lifes supply in vaping, so plenty enough to try in coffee.

 

well having my first pure stevia coffee, its a nogo. If you like coke zero then you woukd probably love it, has that real tangy aniseed type taste, overpowers the coffee. By itself its not a bad taste, bit like zambuca, but in coffee .. nyet.

 

I just had my first stevia coffee the other day. Its not bad. Maybe your adding to much. Its pretty concerntrated. I think 1 tab is equal to 2 sugars.
