I have tried 5 of the alchemists "Organic" concentrates so far and enjoyed them all.
I found the flavours tasted very authentic and none had those nasty chemical undertones present in most other brands.
The grapefruit & pomegranate we're especially moreish.
I usually mix my Capella flavours at 20-25% but unfortunately with the Alchemists flavours I found myself using between 30%-35% for a similar flavour hit.

House of Liquid's "Frozen Orange" is the most authentic orange I have ever tasted, although contrary to the name it seems to have very little peppermint in it.

Capella's "Juicy Peach" is a very authentic naturally tasting peach flavour, although I find myself using 25-30% before it hits the right spot.

Thank you babs, for once a recipe I already have the ingredients for.
I'll be mixing this afternoon.

I've been a fan of Snake Oil for some time and like most fans I can taste subtle traces of aniseed, menthol & citrus plus all kinds of extras my taste buds can't quite identify. Way too advanced for my basic mixing skills to reproduce. Last night however, after enjoying some LT Ecigs Menthol (mixed at 15%), I decided to refill my clearo with some Capella Sweet Strawberry (mixed at 20%). I couldn't be bothered to clean the clearo between uses. Low and behold, the end result tasted pretty much like Snake Oil with all it's subtle hints of exotic extras. It wasn't a measured mix but I'm guessing 95% sweet strawberry and 5% menthol would be about right. I suspect very small amounts of aniseed and lemon would help get even closer to the original. Alternatively maybe my taste buds were just screwed-up last night  |

I love the effect koolada has on fruit flavours and use 1 drop per ml of juice.
Be careful though, I once did twice this amount and found myself coughing more than vaping.

I enjoy their grapefruit and fruit mix but their cola is absolutely terrible!

I use permanent DVD marker pens to write on my bottles.
Thankfully they're far from permanent and quite easy to wipe off, but the writing usually lasts as long as the contents.

I've used Go4Smoke a few times now and have received nothing but excellent service & very prompt deliveries.

I found their Frozen Orange fantastic! - just like vaping neat marmalade lol
I found their mixed berry & silver berry ok.
Sadly I didn't enjoy their specialist tobacco juices at all.

Pretty much all the above plus I suspect vaping also did wonders for my sperm count.
After a few years of trying, Mrs Didge fell pregnant within a couple months of me giving-up the stinkies. We now have a wonderful little baby boy together with the sleepless nights :-(
I now vape in the house, car, at work & in even the bath - couldn't do that with stinkies.
Above all else, the greatest benefit for me is that I've discovered something more enjoyable than tobacco.

I started mixing my own a few months ago, my juice is currently working out at 15 pence a day. I also charge my batteries at work which also saves the pennies  |

You really don't need to rinse them out that many times Sammy . . . once would have been quite sufficient. They had had liquids in them though, one been morphine ( oromorph ) so wanted to be safe. I recently watched the effect Oromorph had on my wife during childbirth, so personally I wouldn't rinse at all  |

Just ordered a good selection of concentrates, and at those prices I included a fair few flavours that I wouldn't usually try.
Fingers crossed I may even surprise myself.
All the best for the future Carrie.

I can't offer a "best", as I've only tried the Capella Bull Horn concentrate, but when mixed at 20% it's lovely, albeit a touch sweet. I usually add 10 drops of sour agent to 10ml to add some fizz-like bite.
