DKS flavor

[melitahams]

I did get this week some DIY and some DKS flavours from BV. I did made a mix in apple flavor but till now I can't taste no apple yet, guess Adam run away lol. Shall I add more I did put 16 drops in a 30 ml mix 70% PG x 30% VG

what percentage did you mix you apple at?
I only ask because the drops method can be hard to measure, as many of the recipe programmes suggest 20 drops to 1ml <<and they mean big fat glass droppers, not teeny tiny dripper tips on some bottles. I made that mistake and had to almost triple my drop amount.

Now I pull the plastic tip off and use a 1ml syringe to measure properly as per recipe. 16 drops does sound measly for a 30ml mixture? I'm sure most fruits are quite weak, I know I did a capella raspberry and I put in 20%? 

Fruit mixes only need a couple of days steeping so you should be able to taste the apple flavouring almost immediately

It's about 3% as in the site they say to put from 3 to 6 drops per 10 ml

I think you'll have to wait for more replies as I cant imagine 3-6 drops being OK for 10mls? ??? when I mixed T_Juice I needed 37 drops from the bottle to get to 15% flavouring so thats the only experience I have in drops ( newbie mixer, myself)

Hope you can get the answer from a mixing member whos familiar with that brand and flavour

I'm being dense . . . what are DKS flavours and who are BV?

Scrub that, google was my friend:

I bought some from C9V, double strength my elbow . . . mixed them all at my normal 15-20% to get any flavour.

I'd forget what measly advised amount you've already added and pop in a further minimum 10% Melita . . . which working on 30 drops to a ml is 90 drops to your 30ml. You may need more, but see how that goes first.

So you recon I should put all the 5 ml to the mix ?

I'd put 3ml in to begin with Melita and see how you go on with that first . . . add in stages would probably be the best bet.

I did put all the 5 ml now and still can't even have a slight apple taste I won't buy again from this flavor as it's not worth a penny. I will see if I can mix it with another flavor now

I was disappointed in all honesty, so you're not alone Melita . . . how about adding some Apple flavour by itself?

If you'd like a really nice Apple Pie concentrate, then F'arts is hard to beat as it is really yummy.

I don't remain any more Apple flavour now I just add 3 drops of cola in now. I did tried the other mix of Ry4 and its wierd unlike the other Ry4 flavour I got .For sure I won't buy anymore DKS flavours. I was about to buy a ready made apple juice and add it to the mix. I will take a look at F'arts Thanks
