So going to date myself with this. For the record, I was too young to watch this show.

I find these developments Very In-te-rest-ing!

Nic base is always the first thing I put in the beaker because it's the largest volume.

Any others who can share order of mixing tips? Has anyone found the same issue with non tobacco flavors?

Another suggestion. I recently mixed a batch of Capellas
2ml Double Chocolate
1 ml Vanilla Custard
2 ml RTS PG 100mg
8ML RTS PG 36mg
1ml Everpure 190

It tasted ok.

Than I added 2 drops per Ml of
TPA The Perfumers Apprentice Sweet Cream.

Made the difference, Turned OK into Excellent.

Perfumers Apprentice Sweet Cream is the bomb for that final touch
with certain flavors.

Since I first posted this I've had some success but not with French Toast. For some reason it just tastes awful, it has a burnt taste no matter what I do. I made some Orange Creamsicle and Ginger Bread Brulee and they are good and getting better with steeping. Next time I'm going to try tweaking them a little.

I cut my nic with pg/vg...can't buy Everpure in my area for some reason. Any suggestions for a substitute that works?

my 2 pence worth:2c:
IF you have been vaping since your join date, the problem may lie in dead taste buds. What to do?Scrub your tongue during oral hygiene, use Biotene products and wait. They will return.
This is my "Why did I lose the flavor answer"
Mixing three flavors together:
Flavor one has molecule A,B and C
Flavor two has molecules C, D and E
Flavor 3 has molecules C.F and G
This is a very simplistic explanation and far from the actual number of molecules FWIW
As you can see from the illustration molecule C had become dominant and may be a NON flavored molecule needed as a carrier or as a preservative, hence the dominant flavor is no flavor. In another instance, one adds double flavor and the dominant is another molecule which adds the bitter end of the flavor spectrum and one ends up with stinksock,com e-liquid.
MORE is not MORE in many instances it becomes NONE or .... paste.

Keep trying and best of luck and happy vaping:)

This is just from my experience and my opinion alone after making kilos of .... paste and drain cleaner. Practice and good taste buds always help and a little bit of lemon and or sodium chloride,
