Calling all mixers... I need my juice sweeter!! CHIME IN PLEASE

[jay631]

Guys/Gals,

I have been mixing up a storm in my kitchen for the last few months.. however I cant get the sweetness right, I purchased some Ethyl Maltol. and I have gone through it without really getting a sweet hit. I use 100% VG and thought that would be enough.

I clearly have a sweet tooth.. I have done a little homework and have got mixed reviews on the use of liquid STEVIA. I have been told that from the whole foods shops you can get Stevia extract with VG and distilled water and this is safe to use.

This information has come across the border from our american friends and I was just wondering if anyone else uses this ? and if not is there a better alternative ?

Many thanks in advance

Jay

Try TPA sweetener .. this is sucralose based and is more a "clean" sweetness than the candy floss sweetness you get from EM

you could get pure sucralose and mix it at 5% with PG if you were so inclined .. Im not generally

I got a 10 ml bottle of Sweetener from Chefs Vapour and am finding even a couple drops in 10 ml is enough to sweeten the juice a lot (though I don't really crave sweet things as my teeth are sensitive to sweet things and try to hide ) I did try 0.1 ml in a 10 ml bottle, and had to tip it down the sink as it gave me toothache lol

TPA sweetner for me as well. I don't particularly have a sweet tooth and add one drop per 10ml.

I've used the TPA Sweetener, which is sucralose as mentioned above. I much prefer the mouth-watering after taste of Stevia though ... got a few grammes off remnant and mixed it into 10mls of warmed up PG. (Do a search on Stevia for the thread).
My son's well into healthy eating and he recommended that the family switch to Stevia sweetener. I didn't question his research cos I know he's pretty thorough, so I can't tell you why.
You can find pure Stevia on fleabay and amazon, getting a small quantity is the hardest thing - even 50gms would last forever.

Cracking value

Only buy Stevia as an eliquid consumable as it needs to be refined. I thought I was being clever buying a 60ml bottle from Amazon but the smallest amount gunks up your coils in no time and has a foul taste, but this is only the premixed and not the crystals scrumpox mentioned.
