Hey guys. first time poster long time viewer. im in a bit of a sticky and frustrating situation. i started DIY mixing a few weeks ago and iv learned alot on my little journey. now im a little stuck with percentages when it comes to multiple flavours etc. i have a good chart for my TFA and CAP single flavour mixes, but what happens to the percentages when you want to add 3-4 flavours to a mix?? is 20% a good rule of thumb with a multiple mix?? and how do i know what my base flavour is? heres an example, .... just say i wanted to make hazelnut whipped cream, and they both have a reccommended single flavour mix of 9%. does that mean i put them both in at 9% each to make 18% or do i tone one down slightly?? i have great ideas for my own mixes but want a heads up on my multiple ratios. thanks you lovely lot

I would try mixing them at 4.5% each flavor and go from there. If you want to taste one more than the other, adjust the one that you want as your dominant flavor upwards. That would be a starting point. Test it and if you need to add more of one or both, it would be easy to do.

Thanks. I'm gonna take your advice and keep it simple. No point trying to make things complicated before iv learned the basics.

I try to keep all flavor to total of 20% Try this calculator, its the best I found and I use it to mix customers eliquid. E Juice me Up

I agree - if I know I like Strawberry at 9% and Banana at 9%, I don't think I'd start Strawberry-Banana at 18%. Maybe go 5+5 and see how it tastes. One more vote (if you use a PC) for EJuiceMeUp as a calculator.

Wow thanks a lot guys. I use eliquid recipes calculator as im mixing by precision weight (no mess) and i only have a mac and my android phone. But thanks for the tips iv currently got a few batches steeping for a few weeks with sensible percentages. iv got a couple made from people's recipes so i can finest tune from then on. I WILL give credit to the recipe maker once tested. Thanks again you guys.
