Is this good way to test combos?
I've recently been vaping non flavour mix for couple of months, and just started dripping again and putting drops of conc in dripper with non flavour mix.
Some have been horrible combos, some ok but just tried tonight keylime and colonel custard and it's great. Tastes abit like a lemon tart but not exactly like it.
Thinking I'll have a go at mixing some up, what's chances it will work? Not really sure where to start with percentages...maybe 15% keylime, 10% colonel custard.
Steep like custard? Two-three weeks?

Key Lime is quite a strong flavour boyofford, 15% would be a standalone ratio for many people, it could easily overpower your Custard. I'd start a lot lower if it was me . . . the best way to gauge any flavour, is to make a small sample of it up first, I find anyway.

To be fair,
Sounds like it could have potential to find good combinations, but it wont find bad ones -like custard - ones that need to steep. A good test will probably be good. A bad test could also be good.
(Was originally going to say it sounds like a rubbish idea, but it could have legs, I suppose?)

I usually make up 10ml of new recipes, that way if they turn out yuk not much has been lost, and also some juices left to steep for a longer time turn out to be really nice when they've had more time than usual.

Suppose I just won't know till do some mixes! Will do few variations and see what works. Used to hate custards but since off the menthol my taste buds have opened up to other flavours.

Maybe I'll tone the keylime back a bit, used to use it at 15% with 3% menthol and your right it was pretty strong.

How to test mixes 1) put RAYON in your dripper. 2) fill dripper with a different juice mix. 3) vape till dry. If yuk didn't like that one goto (2) else make gallons of it and sell for
