Well I'm going to start at 20% because I like my flavours strong and that also seems to make the numbers fairly even mixing at 18mg lol - here goes the learning curve I'm a huge 20% fan Dreamy, as like you I like to taste what I'm vaping. But I think I'd be inclined to go for 15% on this one . . . you can easily add a dash more if it isn't strong enough. It is actually ok for me at 15%. You know what I've spent 3 months trialling pre blended concentrates at 10 and 15% only to beef them up to 20 and 25% in the end, I like my juices juicy! So I thought bugger it I'll go in at 20 and knock it back if its too strong. Thanks for the heads up on the steeping ill be giving it a go this weekend now instead of next

I don't normally mix as low as 10% but it's quite a distinct and full flavour I think I'll get away with it preston234 it's Grape, red berries (whatever they are), aniseed, menthol and eucalyptus and it's a lovely vape. Reminds me of a cross between Vimto and childrens cough medicine

I've just tried 10% and it's good but could be better for me. Upped it to 15% now for that extra little bit

Well my mixing kit and concentrate turned up today so I just mixed my first 5mls of Red Astaire at 15% (or there abouts - I suspect these syringes are not 100% accurate) 50/50 - 15mg for ease of numbers.
It all seemed to go fairly smoothly - of course the proof will be in the vaping but we'll give it a day or two to steep.
On a side note got a bottle of Afro Dizziac premade with my concentrate - sheesh this is good stuff too. More fuss needs to be made about T-juice flavours - I've loved everyone I've tried so far and I can't say that about any other juice vendor I've bought from (and believe me its quite a few now lol)

I have bitten the bullet and ordered a bottle of concentrate too, it sounds fresh and tangy so am looking forward to trying it.

I click on the piccys on the site but don't seem to be able to load a description. Glad your mixing went well.

If you go the the shop section, first tab, it normally has a go to product tab under each juice which takes you to a description.

Anniseed siffy with a touch of menthol/mint - but mainly lots of aniseed. Its a very intense flavoured juice, much like Red Astaire from that perspective. They really like their bold flavours - no way my taste buds are going to lose this one half way through the day. There is a touch of sweetness in Red Astaire- much like there's a touch of sweetness in the alchemists vodka and lime - not sickly but it is there

I made some at 15% and was not strong enough for me, 20% is just right for me
