Hello all, Not been on the forum for a while as i have been mixing and trying to save a few £££'s Nearly all of my mixes have been a single flavour using LTECIGS concentrates/flavourings. Here is how i mixed them in case anyone wants to try some. Because i used so little flavour i just added 2ml of Nic base and 8ml of my pg/vg. So i actually made 10ml + a few drops Chocomint = 7 drops per 10ml (steep for a week) Eucalyptus = 6 drops per 10ml (can use straight away but is far nicer after a week) Amaretto = 3 drops per 10ml (steep for 2 weeks) Pinacolada = 10 drops per 10ml (steep for 3 weeks) Sex on the beach = 10 drops per 10ml (steep for 2 weeks) Banana WG = 4 drops per 10ml (tastes good from the off)
Andylec's Kent = 7 drops per 10ml (steep for 2 week) 3 fives = 7 drops per 10ml (steep for 2 week) Dark fire= 5 drops per 10ml desert ship = 9 drops per 10mlAs you can see very little flavouring is used and a £2.00 bottle goes a very long way. If anyone would like to add there mixes from LTECigs then feel free as i like this vendor and will be using them for a good while Cheers Ryan

I have ordered quite a few flavours from this vendor so might try 1 or 2 of your mixes brysoni, thanks for share :-) Would really like to here your tobacco mixes Andy as I am struggling to make a vapable 1 lol which flavours you got at mo blue? and who they made by? I found flavour arts too hay tasting ,but with the various brands i got from LT so far so good. my favourites are 3 fives ,kent and dark fire and the desert ship isn't too bad either,quite spicey. kent and 3 fives were vapable after just 24 hours ,but both improve over 2 weeks steeping. All were very simple to make and used very small % flavours , i used eliquid recipe manager ,a free app for android phones. I use accurate syringe measurements to make 80/20 pg/vg 18mg base( allowing 2% flavour ) then added flavour by drops as calculated on recipe manager ,tasted on 306 then added to what was my taste. all started at 2% below is listed my final drops per 10ml ,i realise adding more decreases the nic content ,but its minuscule and i am not that fussed losing maybe 0.4 nic or so. Kent = 7 drops per 10ml 3 fives = 7 drops per 10ml Dark fire= 5 drops per 10ml desert ship = 9 drops per 10ml hope this helps, as you can see i am not a accurate mixer, more a taste and adder! but i do lable each bottle with how many drops of what went in and date them for knowledge on steeping times

Thanks very much 4 that Andy, I have bottle of 3 fives from LTE but I think ive mayb added started way too high... oops. Also have a few others there but cannot remember them off the top off my head but all from LTE.
Well I think I am going to give your method a try when I finish work today. My base is not much different, I made up about 50mls to play with & dividing it down to 5mls per flavour until I get something nice. I went 70/30 PG heavy with 20mg Nic, was thinking the flavours would bring it down to around the 18mg level.
Only on my 1st week off mixing so still learning just need to nail a tobacco mix 4 the missus then I can start messing about with some menthol tweaks for myself lol

the missus might like kent ,it has caramel undertones, 3 fives is quite bitter,but i like that and the desert ship is interesting ,but since writing my moms and pops has turned up i can feel a big mixing afternoon coming on ready for my return to work next week

I also have some flavours from LT Ecigs. the tobacco flavours I have are 3 Fives, USA Mix and Tobacco Symphony. I've not actually tried any of them yet as they are steeping, but have been told good things about them. I have also been advised to buy DNB from them and add a drop or two of this to any tobacco mixes to give an authentic "ashy" tobacco flavour to them. www.ltecigs.larsentilbrook.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&path=64_78&product_id=461

Im on the fence when it comes to backy mixing only ever tried a few with not much success, Ive just been browsed their site and saw the 3mm silica wic £ a metre, that was enough to push me into ordering the flavours and additive Ive read about in this thread. Fingers crossed and hoping for a successful batch of tobacco vape in the coming weeks.

The main thing with the concetrates from LTEcigs is to stick to the above, i made one mix of banana wg at 20% but actually only 4 drops was needed and that mix i made of banana @ 20% destroyed my tank. Also if you look at the concentrates, on the item description they tell you what to start with anyway most are 1%

They are good from there, but most of them are not their own flavours but are Inawera, Wera garden and Tino D' Milano, so good makers. They do state which are from which house so plus marks all round.
Edit: I asked them last week if they could get Inaweras' 'Don Hill' flavour as I was getting it from 4drops who are re-structuring at the moment, and they have now got it in stock. They describe it as "Old tobacco style with a hint of wood." It is rather nice and well worth a try.

Andy, if you like the dark flame flavour, I may have some I can live without... my first go at mixing it wasn't great, so if this second batch doesn't work out (I've mixed it with LT blackcurrant) then I may have most of a bottle going begging. I thought it was going to be flue-cured-ish, but was a bit disappointed. I really must get some lambert & butler flavouring to try at some point
