Question :D

[Deleted]

I like my flavours strong, Does anyone mix at 25%?  I mixed some at 15% last week, I know its only been a week but they taste of nothing, Can I up future mixes to 25% so I can taste it? 

[jmw2309]

You can up % to whatever you like. Just take into account that steeping may bring out the flavour more making it too much. I have done this many times in the past!

And if you are going for high vg juice most concentrates are in pg and your nic probably is too so take that into account in your desired pg/vg ratio.

Some flavours I mix at 30% @vickywood . . . there's nothing set in stone, but what suits your individual tastes.

Though I wouldn't go as high as 25% as your next step - try 20% and leave your mix to blend for a week before you try it again.

It's the way to ruin a nice brew by overflavouring . . . . .

thanks jmw, I read people mixing at 3-5% so I thought my 15% was a lot but I dripped them today and its not happening, so gonna try stronger, its all part of learning eh, i'll only make 5ml to try, I also want to try a 80/20 mix and a 20/80 mix just to see the difference, I've only really had 50/50, so hopefully I'll find what I like/dislike

Perpetua I'm so fraustrated, I have everything except my bottles from slowtech so I can't mix till they turn up, hopefully tomorrow, but I said that yesterday lol

Have you not got any empties to be going on with @vickywood?


Or you could nip to Boots/Superdrug and get some of their plastic travel bottles to tide you over perhaps?

I have 1 empty 30ml bottle but thats reserved for BrenD Red Astaire cos as soon as it arrives i'm mixing it while the postman is still on my doorstep lol

I got sent a lovely bottle of bloodie fruiti, man its gold in a bottle, absolutely beautiful, smooth, tasty and moreish, I think its french, I need to try to recreate it, gonna have to do my research lol

A little suggestion, @vickywood, mix a small amount minus the nicotine, so that you can get the flavour strength you require without wasting the nic liquid. Once you have the taste as you like, go on & mix up your proper bottle.

oh I get ya Jess hun, that way I don't waste the precious nic, thanks for the tip, vavape gave me a great tip, when ur atty is stiff or stuck using a rubber glove opens it easily, it works every time lol

Boots sell their small amber glass bottles very reasonably @vickywood, although it'll take longer for your mixes to steep in glass.

Worth scanning Ebay as well for some bottles closer to home . . . you can never have too many!

I sent to slowtech for 15x15ml bottles thinking they would be enough but didn't bank on all your concentrates Perpetua, Can bet I go to boots and come home they be waiting behind my door lol, dang its a 40 min journey to town to get to boots

Have Fasttech actually dispatched your bottles @vickywood?

[Deleted]

when I go to fastech tracking it says shipped and shows me a pic of the actual package with our name and address on the label

I picked up some of these 15ml LDPE (soft squeezable) bottles recently and they arrived in just a couple of days from Ulverston, Cumbria.
Nowhere near FastTech's prices but they're very nice quality and have long, narrow tips, ideal for tricky to fill atomisers.

And getting 25 means you won't run out for a while...
