Whats the most you mix in one bottle (ml's)

[Brambles]

I mix in 30 ml bottles. I start with 5 ml, if I like I make it up to 10 if it needs adjusting slightly and then 15ml. When I have used 5ml I top it up adjusting strength if need be of flavour. I keep topping up to 15ml as I use it if it is a favourite. Steeping! whats that, I never steep I am a wash (mix) and go man. My Apple and banana get worse with age so like to make fresh and maybe leave for an hour. After about a week the TW Apple seems to go off and acquires a horrible tangy taste, the F'Art stays nice but does alter flavour slighty and seems less bright. So again like it fairly freshly made. Everyone else says steeping improves the flavour, I just cannot tell if it does or not so have struck a comprise by topping up the mix in bottles as it is used.
My strawberry from F'Art is superb when fresh. It turns a pale yellow colour over a few days to a couple of weeks, same with coconut. Taste wise I cannot tell, nice fresh, and nice a coupe of weeks later. I must be weird!

For tests of completely new recipes I use 10ml pure VG - if it's rubbish after steeping it goes into the sink.
For serious tests I usually make 20 or 30 ml bottles.
For volume I make 50ml and 100ml bottles, often multiples at a time (My last batch of vanilla custard was 500ml, my last batch of peppermint-menthol was 200ml)

I don't think the size of the bottle makes much difference in steeping.

Thats a serious amount, what do you do with it all, vape it off a sauna

Hehe, the VC is my all day vape, I go through 8ml or so a day. My wife uses another 2 or 3. So, 500ml is 50 days of custard, well actually more like 60 or 70. It's not too much =)

Sound good whos concentrate do you use? Ive tried flavourarts 2ml
sample, it was very good at 20%, from 10ml only the last ml made it
passed the steep 

Will be brewing some more up when I order some more flavouring, Whats your mix ?

My mix is pretty simple, really, 20% Capella Vanilla Custard, 3% Farts Vanilla Tahiti (Or another Vanilla I like at the time of mixing) in 10mg VG, no sweetener.
My current VG base is 72mg from Totally Wicked or 38mg base from a German source and the VG is 85% VG, 15% water from Hedinger (pharma grade).

I often mix the finished and steeped VC liquid with other flavours to keep it interesting. At the moment, I use it around 5:1 with 555 from Alien Visions (avejuice.com) - yummy!

Thanks for the recipe, Ive been holding off ordering Capella, its going to mean another spending round but it should be worth it.

Ill give you recipe a do, Its pretty straight forward so it'll suit me, 30ml per month or Ill never use my other stuff
