hello i have been mixing flavours from Capella some of my juices have 3-4 flavours in each the general rule of capella is 15%+ for standalone flavours... so how do i go about mixing them would you need a total of 20%+ flavouring if mixing 3-4 flavours together? as going from 50/50 to 30/70 PG/VG i have seen a huge difference in flavour muteness ..... what are your views when mixing with Higher VG Liquids regarding flavour percentages?

also steeping times with higher flavour percentages as i like to leave some for up to 3 months as i make big batches....

I usually mix at 15% 50/50 but the same at 30/70 its just tasteless

so how do i go about mixing them
Suggest not to worry about total percent. I start low, 10 percent total and get the ratios first and not worry about strength. I then uniformly increase ratios upward/downward if I need more/less strength.
also steeping times with higher flavour percentages
Natural steep for the longest flavor required in the mix.
Example: If a custard in the mix, 3-4 weeks for the total mix.
I usually mix at 15% 50/50 but the same at 30/70 its just tasteless
Again, keep a know good weak ratio the same and ramp up each in the mix uniformly.
Example: A=2
B=4
C=5
Double: A=4 (1.5 or 1.25, 1.12 etc.)
B=8
C=10
