I've been thinking about this recently. I have three juices I vape regularly which share three ingredients (in the same ratio), and each has a different fourth flavour. I was thinking about making a big bottle of the common three mixed together so that when I make these juices I can just use this common mix plus the fourth ingredient to make each juice. Worth trying, I would say. 'Nothing ventured'... as the saying goes!

I'll make some up and bring to Vapefest14 then you can give it a go and see what you think, how about one batch a month?? I like your thinking Di. The concentrate has been steeping for 3 weeks now so 1st batch next week seems about right

Perpetua I have a bottle of pre-mixed concentrate for Rom's Rhubarb & Custard recipe that I've made up and the specific nic base (@12mg) to take the 36.5% flavouring. I wanted to see if pre-steeping the concentrates together made a difference to taste, (before nicotine came into the equation), and steeping times. ??? Be interesting Di to see if it does make a difference. It might do a little, though I still think nicotine is the greatest steeping accelerator. When I've mixed very low and high strengths for people, the higher strengths definitely seem to ' grab ' hold of flavour quicker. I think I understand what you are suggesting. Say I have 3 flavours I wish to have in a mix and add them all into a mix together and let them steep together the result you are after is not quite what you wanted. But if you make up three seperate mixes of the three flavours let them individually steep until they are ready and then combine the three flavours. Each flavour has had time to develop on its own without any influence from another. Sound method and something I haven't tried before. And I'm going to give it a go. Will take a while to be able to report back any results. I've done it in the past with Pie Crust/Cookie and Fruit Flavours uvm78, whilst I was still getting a feel for the concentrates and my tastes. It was a useful exercise, then I decided it was a bit faffy for me, so didn't bother again. I'll make some up and bring to Vapefest14 then you can give it a go and see what you think, how about one batch a month??

Di my personal smilies also don't have a blue background when I hover over them, but they still work - for instance - I really wish I could work out why yours aren't working it's a mystery for sure!!
May try some smilies from another site and see what happens... any recommendations?

Sorry for delay in replying. Di's son, there should be no reason for Di to have to drag & drop the smilies into a post, as long as she is using full reply, she should be able to just click on them. Unfortunately Chrissie my son has gone back to Uni today
I can confirm however, that which ever reply I use the personal smilies will not post - as he said when you hover over them (to click/post) they do not come up with a blue highlighted background ??? He's baffled and can't think of a reason why, especially as my codes look to be exactly the same as those shown by others. Ah well! I'll get by
Thanks for all the help everyone!!

Son here. To find out what version of internet explorer you're using click setting (little gear top right) then 'about internet explorer' this will show all the information about the program. I figured that she has to drag and drop the personal smilies into the text, is this working now? is it showing up correctly, she has exactly the same set up as shown by Raffles in his screenshot. This is a screen shot of her settings (again) When in the smilies the personal ones don't bring up a blue highlighted background, so it makes me think that they aren't buttons but instead just pictures. I don't know what the problem is has an easy work around so it isn't really a problem now that she knows the crack.

Having consulted my daughter ... she thinks its internet explorer 7 ??? (I think that I am confusing even her!!) That may indeed be the problem as that's a fairly old version of IE as I believe the current version is IE11? Well..... after now consulting with the (guru) son I am on Windows 7 IE11 !!! (Clever clogs!!! isn't he!!)
(Apparently I'm a hopeless case as it only took him 2 clicks!! Bl**dy show off!!)
