Well I started with 10% flavoring then tried 15 then 20%. I tried making vanilla caramel, caramel cheesecake, and something as simple as Mango.
I was using recipes from Dans ejuice
Calculator v13 and from the ejuice
Me up program.
For example I can taste the mango but its not sweet or flavorful. The recipe that one is 50/50VG with 10% flavor. I also tried 20%. It reminds me of mango diluted in water. I also tried just a butterscotch at 10% and again at 20% and nothing. It is no where near as sweet and flavorful as a juice I ordered from my supplier. :/

Oh and I was hoping for a sweet pumpkin pie with whipped cream.

Some of this may be needing to let the juice steep a bit. A lot of my mixtures don't taste right for several days. Sweetness should be an immediate result though. If a mixture is lacking sweetness in a juice, I would for sure recommend TFA Sweetener and possibly Cotton Candy, depending on the type of sweet that you're looking for. LorAnn Tart & Sour is another flavor enhancer that's specifically designed for fruit flavorings. If a little is added, it can make the flavor "pop" more, if a lot is added, it can make it tart and sour.

As for the vanilla, caramel, cheesecake flavors. Those are going to taste better the next morning, and then better over the next couple of days. When working with the vanilla/caramel/cheesecake, I would suggest to keep the total flavoring of your mixture under 30%, so you could do 10% of each and come out with something good.
