Well my first attempt

Kentucky Amarretto Blend (I don’t like amarretto so god knows why I bought that!!) mixed with a very ’cheap cola’ tasting cherry cola and watermelon. Blew my head off but the watermelon was 2.4% but according to a linky above came out at just over 1.8%. I have diluted it further with some vanilla and we are getting somewhere.

I am not really after creating amazing but just vapable to get the stocks of down. So far so good. The best thing about mixing pre made is no patience for steeping required just a good shake!

You are so much better organised than me to start off with, I'm still at the stage of just adding a squirt from another bottle to see what it's like, forgetting to write it down, trying it and then tipping it out

reddragon try at 2% first of all....

Perpetua has tried for many a year to get me at 20% and steeping till the zombie apolcalpyse.....she has not suceeded.... Tease-smiley


I do everything at 2%....if it's really strong at 1%

Anything minging I give away. One man's rubbish is another man's treasure ....sorted:D

You have me confused (very easily done though!!) are you saying to make up 10ml you would use 8-9ml of nic/pg/vg and add 1-2ml of flavour concentrate and it is vapable? Sorry if sounding dumb but that would be a good idea for some to vape whilst waiting for others to steep.

No, Jane seems to have hypersensitive taste buds and would only use 0.2ml of concentrate.  I don't think anyone else would be able to taste anything at those ratios.  But for 10% or 20% you're right reddragon.  Most fruit flavours only need a few days steeping and mints/menthols are good to go straight away

And maths is supposed to be one of my strong points lairey, but I think you knew what I meant

I know I am going to struggle with the steeping, dessert types are my favourite, but I have some minty ones to make too so hopefully that will keep me going along with what I have got in already.

I know what you mean, but once you have a few good mixing sessions under your belt, you'll find you always have something well steeped.  I've currently got over half a litre of Custardy Lovechild in various stages in my steeping cupboard!
