Took the plunge and ordered some mixing bits from darkstar. Got completely overwhelmed when it came to flavours tho so I got
Tfa peach juicy
Tfa ripe strawberry
Tfa banana cream
Tfa sweet cream
Assuming tfa means flavour apprentice lol.
Anyone got any suggestions with any recipes using these flavours?
I'm aiming for a 70vg 30pg 3mg nic.
I've got my head round the liquid calculator so I'm just after the % of flavour concentrate. Thanks
 
Simple simple simple. Don't go above 6% on any of them no matter how many you use. Your creams are going to need at least 2 weeks to steep. All of those are going to be fine in any combination, I have issues with a lot of recipes because people pack far too much flavour and sucrose in them. It gets to a point with flavour where you get diminishing returns and a big old mess. Like when you were a kid and mushed all your plasticine together and it went brown.

As it's your first time I would start simple. Pick one of the fruits at 6% and one of the creams at 3% and stick it in a dark place to steep. If you want to "shake and vape" then you can use the peach and strawberry.

Thanks do u mean 6% in total of all flavourings or 6% per flavour? Going on your advise say I mix 6% peach and 3% sweet cream would that be ok? Thanks for the advice
 
6% per flavour. All brands are different TFA is in the middle, if it were flavour art you would need much less. It's one of the things that can make recipes so hit and miss if they are using a different brand to you :)

e: and that would be fine. If you mix up 50ml and split it into 5 10ml you can vape one per week and see how the flavour improves and evolves over time.
 
Thanks gonna do your above suggestion and just a strawberry shake and vape as I have the patience of a 5 year old lol [emoji3]
