I made a toffee and apple using LA English toffee and Inawera Bahraini apple. It's  awful I managed a few draws on it, said "eurgh this is disgusting" handed it to the Mr, he tried it and nearly coughed up a lung haha. I think that one goes firmly in the never ever again pile haha. |

How much of the Inawera did you add to the mix ? it's pretty potent stuff

I did use 0.5 ml of it in a 5 ml mix so maybe that is why  |

Yes that does appear to be a bit much, I used 0.5ml of Inawera in a 15ml mix and even that is quite strong. Dave

Inawera Bahraini Apple is very strong, but it does normally soften a bit with a couple of weeks steeping.
Agree with Dave, With Inawera and Wera Garden flavours I'd always start at around 5% as they are normally quite potent.
I think with Bahraini Apple you could use 2-3% and still know it's there.
If you use their tobacco mixes I'd always start at around 2%.

I might try diluting it out a bit then and seeing how it tastes then. It definitely tastes very strongly of apples!

Make an unflavoured mix at your normal ratio/strength and dilute with that.

I keep a 20ml bottle of unflavoured made up for diluting, also useful for stealth vaping (no smell)  |
