I know I am not the only mixer on here.

I guess it's horses for courses as I don't do tobaccos. Just never had any concentrate I could taste under about 3%.

I do mix with a 100% VG and VG nic so the only PG is in the flavours. Don't generally steep much either. Maybe that influences it a bit.

There is such a thing as over flavouring where too much flavour concentrate will just mute itself so you can’t taste it properly. I find steeping a makes a big difference in flavour and as you might already know VG isn’t the best flavour carrier when compared to PG so it takes longer for the flavour molecules to really blend together with the VG. I would definitely recommend you try steeping a bottle of one of your usual recipes that you know well for at least a couple of weeks (just put it in a cool dark place) and then compare it with your regular un-steeped version and I think you’ll be surprised at the difference.

I think all but a few die hards have moved on/away....wised up, got fed up....sitting with a box of 600 concentrates, making 400 recipes, waiting months... only to like a couple...nobody got time for that shit no more

It was madness man, granted at the time most commercial juice was shite and well over priced so you could knock up something better yourself for nae pennies....but not now

For me, mixing is just part of my hobby......which is a good job given how shite i am at it. I love the feeling of heightened expectation when the steep is done an am jist about to embark on the exciting journey of discovering the next big ejuice flave, then I try my efforts and come crashing back to earth. oh well.......next time. However disappointing it gets, I never seem to lose my enthusiasm

 

[30deadcats]

If I make 2 or 3 that turn out shite I mix them together and sometimes.......woohoo [emoji119][emoji119][emoji119] then again sometimes you have a larger bottle of shite [emoji90][emoji90]

I use one shots. I just couldn’t be arsed doing the 1.5% of this, & the 0.5% of that: I always thought life’s too short for that shit

 

[Lee James 27]

I mostly mix recipes by the more notable and experienced creators that know what they are doing and those with good reviews so I am rarely disappointed these days. I have had more disappointments from trying the occasional commercial e liquid that tempted me but turned out to be a load of sh#t.

 

[vapervince]

I haven`t mixed in the conventional sense for a while now, but I have found a commercial brand of juices with flavour profiles that I can mix together to get a reasonable facsimile of the juices that I`ve been trying to copy for years, they`re also bloody good `as is`

I've been mixing my own single flavour juice using Drake's 60ml and LT's 10ml NET concentrates by weight for a while now. I use the same recipes, 25% for Drake's and 5% for LT, 50/50, 3mg and mix 240ml and 200ml respectively as that means I can just pour a whole bottle of concentrate in. It's way cheaper and doesn't take much time, plus I quite enjoy it.
