Well it's been a week since I mixed my first test batches and I'm just vaping them now and I've got to say they aren't bad. Maybe a little underwhelming taste wise but not bad. The trouble is I didn't label any of the bottles because I thought I'd be able to tell easy enough what they were by smell and taste. Wrong! All I know is they smell quite nice and they taste ok but I've got no idea what flavour is what lol Fair play I suck but I'm now labelling all my test batches so lesson learnt Sigh... One day I'll learn

Sometimes the color of the flavor that went in gives it away, depends if they changed color drastically from steeping.

Was they standalone flavors in each mix or various flavors in each mix?
If it's various flavors then that will be even harder to identify

Very true, quite yummy but I had to use 25% flavouring.

Glad I'm not a freak liking more intense flavours ;-) I've found them sweet enough to be honest.

I tend to find the following: Capella can range from 10-25% Flavourart can range from 3-10% Inawera can range from 1-10% Perfumers can range from 10-20% Cupcakes can range from 10-25% Flavorwest can range from 10-25% Decadent Vapours can range from 10-20% But the above can vary very differently, i e CCW cream i would not like to go above 2-3% so it's all trial and error so in theory there is no 100% certainty on a flavor percentage unless tried and tested and even then we all have different taste buds

Though most F'arts I mix at 20-25% and CCW's if it's a standalone flavour ( certainly not Cream! ) I just use it neat with my Nicotine Base to get the taste I like.

kibbster I did that with my first mixes ages ago. Properly put me off mixing until recently! I love the measuring and mixing, but the labeling is a PITA, but labeling is necessary I decide what I'm going to mix, write the labels and stick them on the bottles. then when that bits out of the way I can get down to the fun bit
