Well I mixed my first 10ml tester and it's steeping at the mo. Just trying an Evod of it and it's not bad but lacking flavour a bit. It's a 13mg 50/50 mix with Capella Berry Harvest and I used 20% concentrate. Will a couple of days steeping strengthen the flavours, or a 60/40 mix or maybe a bit more Nic? I don't think it needs any sweetener but just a bit of a more intense flavour. It's still not a bad vape though even if I say so myself

Welcome to the dark side kibbster As with a lot of mixes, give it a few days before chucking any more flavour in it and see how it goes.

Well done Kibbster Harvest Berry is one of my favourite mixes, i also do it at 20% and find that is fine for me, but taste is subjective. I normally leave it a few days to steep and i mix it 70/30 so maybe that bit more PG helps the flavour to come through more? I also normally add a couple of drops of EM but i like my juices to be sweet.

Yes was toying with the idea of 60/40 or something to help give it a bit more of a twang

I make all mine at 20% kibbster. All of them seem to taste better after a week, but my lime zinger and strawberries and cream taste great after only a day or so. Well done for trying it!

Bah waiting... hate waiting Although going into the airing cupboard every now and then to stroke my little maturing pot of magic is quite therapeutic

It smelled so lovely I nearly vaped it straight away kibbster then I forgot about it, found it this week as supplies are running low and it's just lovely! I'm pretty sure that it could be one of the ones that doesn't need more than a day or two of steeping! At the end of the day, you can't really go wrong. If it tastes ok after 2 days, fine. If not leave it a wee while longer

TBH It was a combination of mess and lack of room in the house, having high str nic in the house with a 3 year old (he's pretty good at not touching what he's told not to touch though) and the fact that I was buying 10ml for £3 which wasn't too bad. Once I started vaping Vapourtrials 11mg Forest fruits and fell in love with it at £5 for 10ml I realised I needed to start mixing my own
