gotta feeling Sticky Granny is gonna be a hit Hmmmm . . . I'm reserving judgement on that one Rom, due to the less than savoury mental image I now have of this brew of yours. Shame on you perps..... Surely it must be similar to a toffee apple

Hi Mono
I have recently started mixing my base 100mls at a time then using it when I feel like a mixing session, I mix it so I will get about 20mg stength when I add about 15ml of flavour.
From what I have found it makes no difference to steeping times as it is all down to what flavour you use but I find it a lot handier when I do mix being able to just measure out the amount of base and just add the flavour without the hassle of using 3 or 4 different bottles.
As for your base mix it will depend what PG / VG ratio you like and whether you use VG nic base or PG.
I work it out with the juice me up calculator adding 15% flavour for the calculation but don't add any to the mix so when I use it later it will not matter how big my individual mixes are as long as I add about 15% flavour I will be in my required strength zone

The one flavour I use as a base in most of my mixes is their Extreme Ice.... Only way I can describe it is like menthol airwaves chewing gum when you breath in on a cold day Ahhhhhhhh I usually add a splash of a fruity flavour just to give it a little twist . I must have about 20 of their flavours but never had time to try most of them so I can see a mega mixing session on the cards sometime soon. As far as I have been told most of them come from Flavourwest and the ones I have tried so far are certainly no weaker than the more popular brands Only downside I have found with them is the postage is quite steep (around £11) so if you don't want to buy 7 or 8 of the 15ml bottles they will work out more expensive but they have so many to choose from I find it harder to only pick 8 lol I normally buy 7 or 8 each order so it works out at £3.17 for a 15ml bottle delivered.....BEWARE if you buy more than this in one order without using the voucher code it will take you over the £15 limit for vat and you will end up with an £8 charge from royal mail...I almost got caught with that on my first order

What!!? Vape space stopped selling SF?? *cries*. I know alba sell it but the postage is outrageous. Might order some from mt baker vapour. Depending on shipping cost. Shipping from Mount Baker is expensive too, my last lot I ordered yesterday was about £11 shipping BUT the price of their concentrates are really cheap (£1.95 for 15ml) so unless you want to buy 7 or 8 15ml bottles (to keep you under the VAT limit) it may not be worth it using them. As I said in an earlier post if you need / want 8 bottles of flavour it works out a very reasonabe £3.17 for a 15ml bottle including delivery. Remember to use voucher code vapourfrombaker at checkout for 10% off .....If you dont 8 bottles will put you just above the vat limit and you will get hit with the royal mail's famous "£8 handling and vat recovery charge" Mount Baker always put the correct price on the label so you need to be aware of this or you will get stung with charges if you go over £15 (approx $23) Excluding delivery

I get most of my flavouring from here $2.99 (£1.95) for 15ml pretty sure that they are Flavour West and have about 200 different ones Postage is a bit steep (£11.02) but if you buy 8 bottles and use voucher code vaporfrombaker it keeps you just under the £15 vat limit Including delivery cost it works out at £3.17 each for 8 x 15ml bottles total £25.43 www.mtbakervapor.com/swedish-fish-electronic-cigarette-flavoring/

The riots last year are just a taste of things to come I fear , people have still got fight left in them , it won't take much to ignite the flames and for the population to say enoughs enough ......somethings very wrong when record numbers of the elderly are dying in this cold spell yet British Gas execs help themselves to a £16 million pound bonus pot , there are plenty of stories like this coming out everday whilst the media try to deflect attention and focus on the unemployed being the problem ... resentment will turn to anger eventually and then the sh*ts gonna hit the fan Just the point I was making British Gas private company.... everybody were queuing up to buy under priced shares when they sold it off, unfortunatly most were bought by people who had money anyway now we are all paying the price because the government have absolutley no say in the wholesale price of oil and gas etc Would also be interesting to see how many of the unemployed were caused by direct and indirect privatisation of public companies over the years....Private companies NEED to make profit to keep the shareholders happy....Ask any company what their biggest overhead is and I bet most will say LABOUR

I agree with you Dolly, but to be honest i don't think it was this government that caused that, nor the handout and not have to work expectation, and made parents afraid to spank their children. That was Labour. Not a fan of this government either, but they are picking up the pieces that labour left,,,,,,,,,,, To be honest they are all as bad as each other, when the party ends, you look around and you are still standing in the shit. Lenny, did you mean something like a dildo? They're great, should try it. Got to agree this government were handed a shi*ty stick from Labour but the Torries did the same when Thatcher was in, she sold off all the countries assets to make "the man in the street" a home owner and shareholder, now we are paying through our ar*ehole for gas, electricity etc cause they are all owned by foreign countries. People who have lived in the family home all their life are having to pay bedroom taxes because all the good council houses were sold for a fraction of their worth and now most councils are only left with high rise flats and houses in undesireable areas, so can no longer house families. All the parties are as bad as each other in my opinion

I think that since Thatcher crushed the unions, they just dont have the stomach to do anything The sooner this pathetic bunch are kicked out the better............just my personal view Plus the fact most of the population are living beyond their means and many cannot afford to go on strike and lose days far less weeks of wages or they will sink. All the years of easy credit and encouraging people to buy now pay later mentality has not done the country any favours.

I'm only mixing for my own consumption so I'm quite happy to use 'ish' measurements! Ok there you go Shoot me down if I'm wrong but I thought VG influenced vapour not flavourings as they are normally PG

That is the main problem Mark, as has been said, personal preference. I like VC at 10-12%, Perps at 15-20% And I have just made my first batch yesterday @ 15% and will have to wait a couple of weeks to see if thats right for me

Don't be too disciplined Oxo . . . it takes the creative fun out of the process. You're far from alone on the patience front, shame we don't have a Vendor who sells it. Got to agree with that Perps, don't think I have made 2 mixes exactly the same :Dbut that in it's self stops my taste buds from getting to acustomed to 1 flavour. I have found one that I really like ( mount baker Extreme Ice) that I use as my basic flavour and mix a few 30ml bottles at a time but I also mix lots of other fruity stand alone flavours in 10ml bottles and use these to keep giving it a diffent twist by either adding a small squirt into my clearo or if I find one to be lush blending the extreme ice in 10ml bottles with a splash of the fruity one. Some of the combinations are just sooooo tasty
