diy attempt any suggestions?

[ahall]

so i attempted to make my dark chocolate, cranberry, almond candy bar liquid. i made it at 10 percent flavor 5/5 dark chocolate/cranberry then literally just dipped the tip of a pipette into the almond (man that stuff is strong). well what i made is super good. i could vape it all day. but not what i was going for. at 5 percent choc and 5 percent cranberry i taste cranberry with just a small hint of the dark chocolate. both of these flavorings are flavor west.

does anyone have experiance with these flavors and any idea at what percent they really shine? thanks

Just play around with your percentages until you get the flavor you are looking for. Be sure and keep track of any additions. Add a little more chocolate to what you have and see how you like it?

Edit: I will say the FW flavors I've used have been a little on the weak side compared to TPA, and I've needed closer to 15-20%.

yeah thats what im planning on doing. just wondering if anyone has used these flavors and what percents worked well for them. ya know take a bit of the guess work out for me lol. im gunna try 6/4 percent next choc/cran. unless someone has any ideas

I know it always seems like people are being frustratingly vague about percentages and such, but it really is crazy how subjective taste is. Like the same juice might taste totally different for my bf than it does to me. That's the cool thing about diy, though, is you can really tweak it to what YOU like best. Think of it like perfume. I've smelled some people wearing stuff I think is RANK, but it must smell good to them!

The Chocolate Flavorings I use can tend to Over Power Most Fruit Flavors.

One thing that might help you is to make a 20ml Batch of Just Chocolate and then make a 20ml Batch of Cranberry. Tweak them both until you get them the way you want each of them to be.

And WRITE EVERYTHING DOWN.

The try mixing some of the Chocolate and some of the Cranberry into a 3rd Bottle to find the Blend Percentage you are looking for.

I think you will find that this is Easier than trying to make a Choc-Berry Mix in a Single Bottle.

i totally get what you are saying. just seems that the dark choc is a bit light on flavor. just wondering what worked for people that have used it. i sure will keep in mind the fact that taste is so subjective.

good idea. this choc sure doesnt over power anything. i was actually hoping for that which is why i used equal amounts. as i was trying to come as close to a candy bar i get as i can.

Yeah, for me it's easier to get each Flavor of a Blend tasting good and then work on the what the % should be of both.

Sometims, when I try to mix them together from the start, that they are so far off that it makes it hard to know what to do.

Do I add 4 more drops of this and 2 less drops of that?

That and you really should wait for at least 3 days after each change to the Flavoring. By having Two Seperate e-Liquids that taste Good on their own, you can change Blend Percentage on the Fly and there is no waiting.
