Sorry Fozz, perhaps it is just a choice of words, but I have to respectfully disagree with you. I am not a "fan" of mixing large quantities of anything that are untried/untested. By all means; mix up many small (15mL, 10mL, even 5mL) trials of potentially interesting recipes. But I see very little benefit of mixing up a larger volume (and committing those resources) to something I have no idea whether I will like. I can accomplish the same thing, with less resources, and faster results (less volume results in faster blending/equilibrium), if I am willing to ration the results a bit more conservatively.
Once you get an acceptable recipe, by all means, mix to your heart's content. But why would you want to commit a half liter worth of material to something you have no idea whether you will like or not.
I can mix up 8 different 15mL "samples" and, alternating through all 8, can have more than a month's supply vaping 10 (ish) mL/day for less than one "unknown" 400mL batch.
I am also not a proponent of blindly aging everything without tasting along the way. Yes it may be perfectly vapable, but how would you ever know that "it was at its best" after only "three days (or insert number here)" unless you are tasting all along the resting period?
I respect that your method works for you. I just am not sure it is right for everyone; at least until they explore the journey to get there.
