The flavours you have got are very strong, especially the wera garden. I have a coffee here from the same range and i use literally 2 drops per 10ml so don't add too much to start with. You can always add more later. Good luck with the mixing.

I have added items to my cart then removed them thinking about all the fuss with mixing and then added them again and i have now removed them again, please convince me on this mixing lark, i think i just need a big push to start

Go for it, its great fun and so good to use your own home made juice. So much nicer than shop bought.

It really doesn't have to be a fuss truly Richo . . . I said to someone else this morning, mixing for me is about the creative fun I can have with flavours and the ( mainly ) delicious eliquids I can create to vape.

I refuse to get bogged down in the realms of exactitude, a drop or two more or less of something isn't the end of the world, nor is it going to vastly affect the end result. I mix mainly for myself and a few friends, we all enjoy the end result. That's what matters to me.

Looks good to me Richo.

Have you got some more small bottles?

I haven't used Wera Garden, but I understand they're quite strong flavours, so I'd be inclined to use the recommended percentages until you find what suits your taste buds.

Good luck and any other questions, then ask away.

Same here perps, i use a 5ml syringe and a 10ml syringe and get as close to the amount my calculator says and then just chuck it in. The same flavours always taste the same to me.
My motto is get it in there asap so you can get it steeping.

A most sensible plan if I might say Ros.

have a look through some of these links

Got my Mixing kit today along with some concentrates, now i ordered VPG 100ml (50/50 solution base) most recipes i have seen have vg,pg and nic as separate items as this is all in one how do i use the recipe cards? Gonna experiment with a 10ml bottle of apple & pear so im reckoning on 9ml of the vpg base and 0.5ml of both the apple & pear or is this too much flavour?

[Karma]

I would only use 0.25 ml or even just a few drops richo71 those LT concentrates really are strong. Have a look at what it says on the product page at LT

[richo71]

well i have done a small 10ml sample i used 4 drops of apple and 6 pear in 9.5ml of 14mg vpg base i will leave it now for wee while and try a tiny sample later. one thing though my lovely OH says it smells like a sweet shop and boy these flavours are strong

[richo71]

One thing i have noticed with these flavours from LT are that the bottles are only 3/4 full (missing at least 3-5ml i suspect)

Did you get the batteries from torchy? Torchy the battery boy (sorry don't know the link) is top notch on ebay for batteries
