What have you knocked up ?
I've also been dabbling. Trying BYO Nutszilla with a bit of cream and vanilla. That smells nice after 1 week but I'm trying desperately not to touch it for 3 weeks.
Also tried doing a strawberry cheesecake and have tested that but it's failed. I think I have put too much cheesecake in it and not enough strawberry.
Back to the drawing board !

Thats going to be my problem trying not to touch it [emoji3] and i have made a terrys chocolate orange then making a grape if this turns out anygood Fingers crossed
 
From what I can gather from the experienced mixers on here. You can pretty much try fruits straight away but not sure about the chocolate part.
I believe for tobacco, creams and custards it's best to wait for at least 3 weeks.

I just looked up and people are saying 3-5 days so going to play it safe and leave it a week ... Going to get my grape flavour so i can pretty much vape straight away
 
Everyone's different with steeping. Just do what's best for your tongue mate it doesn't have to be a certain amount of time

@chopper have you any idea where I got my mix wrong ?
Ripe strawberry TPA 10%
Bavarian cream TPA 4%
NY Cheesecake CAP 5%
French Vanilla TPA 3%
Tried it after 1 week but all I can taste is the cheesecake !

Id drop % down by 1% at least on all apart from strawberry to begin with. Probably 2% on Bavarian cream and NY cheesecake, strawberry tends to be the overpowerer to begin with, but leave this mix to steep for at least 2 more weeks, strawberry and cheesecake flavours do generally calm down and blend after 3 weeks
 
Thanks @chopper
I've also put 4% bavarian cream in my byo nutszila along with 2% vanilla for an experiment so we'll have to see how that turns out. Tobacco is a stronger Base flavour so it may be OK. Only time will tell. :D
I'll knock another batch of strawberry up with lower percentages
