Would Kent on its own or Super-Shiny's recipe be closer to Black Cat. Going to make a concentrate order and would like to know this before I order.

Which do you all prefer?

Best thing to do is try at 1 or 2 percent of Kent and adjust until you feel it's right for you, that's the best part of mixing, you are in control of what you are doing

Another thing to remember is that with a concentrate it costs pennies compared to a pre-made juice so if you don't like it you won't be out of pocket that much, with a pre-made you will

Yeah I'm definitely going to start low. Cheers Super-Shiny, looking forward to trying your mix.

Would any brand of smoother be ok going into your recipe?

Since your an expert on recipes, would you have any advice on what concentrate would be good for an ice cream flavour? I'm going to try and create a recipe for a Twister ice cream.

You might not need it, i only used it to smooth things out a little as i use high PG and high Nic levels

I ain't no expert, trust me, i get most of my info from others on this site

As for ice cream you could try Cupcakes Cream (be warned it's very potent) and maybe some Perfumers Koolada for that cooling effect and then a fruit flavor of your choice, there is so many different options, you just need to find what works and what does not

Thanks for the help Super-Shiny, hopefully I'll get sorted with these mixes.

Super-Shiny, just did a mix of Black Kitten. Did a 40/60 PG/VG mix as I'm waiting on some PG coming, at 14mg strength. I used 3% of Kent and 3% of Caramel, dropped a few drops in my dripper and it tastes amazing already. I wonder if I should go up to the 5% of each you have in your recipe, also how long do I need to steep. It's going to be a nightmare waiting as it tastes so good already.

If it tastes good to you already Lardy, then use it and get another batch made up so you can compare the difference to a ' raw ' and steeped version.

How long should I steep for Perpetua?

I would leave it at 3% for now, you can always add more and a later date, i steep for about 2 weeks but saying that i steep everything for 2 weeks minimum

Cheers Super-Shiny, I'll probably make two batches. One to vape now and one for steeping. I don't think I can wait two weeks to start using it, and as I said I'm loving the taste of it freshly mixed.
