peanut butter and sweet tangerine, start off at 8% but I bet you will take it up to 10.
apple pie at 12% and I bet you will take it up to 15.

It sort of depends on your taste, and how long you have been of the cigs. I find that the farther out I am from smoking, the less flavor I need. Your device also might have something to do with it. If you are vaping a protank, you might want a higher percentage than if you were dripping, or using a Taifun gt, or kayfun. The numbers I gave you should be pretty middle of the road though.

I have not tried any capella flavors and was just sent the following flavors.

Juicy lemon
Chocolate fudge brownie
Chocolate glazed doughnut

Any thoughts, recommendations or percent suggestions on these?

I have not mixed any of these but from what I have read: Chocolate Glazed Donut- 9-12%, Chocolate Fudge Brownie- 9-10%. I have not found anything on the lemon. Hope this helps!

I am confused! That doesn't take a lot by the way but can't figure out what the problem is. Maybe someone can help.

I mixed the 3 Capella flavors. I mixed the Sweet Tangerine and Peanut Butter each at 10%. I mixed the Apple Pie at 15%. The Tangerine and Apple Pie taste a bit weak but ok. I added a couple of drops of lemon juice to see if that would make them pop. The peanut butter is what has me baffled. It tastes burnt. I am not using a VV device just a plain evod 650 mah battery and an evod clearo. I am using a new coil so it's not that either. Why would it taste burnt? Should I try to dilute it and see if that helps? I was really hoping for a good PB! :(

Edit: Just tried it on VV all the way down to 3.3 and still tastes burnt.

Most of the time flavors do need to steep(age). give em a couple of days in a closed cubbard with cap off the bottles and then test them. the only capella flavor I have found so far that did not require any steeping is the sweet strawberry. ymmv.

:)
edit
I have heard(but have yet to try) that flavor west peanut butter is the best of all of them. And their butterscotch, rootbeer and ecto too. It is starting to appear to me that each company has their own 'best flavors'. Of course, again, taste is subjective.

As I've discussed with you earlier I haven't used capella but I just got a few capella flavors in a trade and will be trying them hopefully today. So let me do some mixing and then I'll be better able to help you work out your problem. I should be able to get something going or we will both be banging our heads against the wall:)

What does make sense is as was mentioned in another thread is that the capella peanut butter does not go well on it's own and needs to be mixed with other flavors so in the mean time try the recipes that were given to you in that other thread.

I haven't tried any others but I find FW Peanut Butter to be excellent. I mix at 12% for myself and 10% for a friend. It taste more like roasted peanuts than peanut butter to me. I may add a little sweet cream or Bavarian cream and see if it makes it creamier. Anyhow it is very good all by itself.

I use google ... usually pulls up what you are looking for on ECF

Doing an advanced domain specific search on google is even better than the advanced search. For example add the highligted below to the end of your keyword in the search text box
