Hi Guys I am new to DIY. Total newbie. I just got some order of hangsen flavors. I have couple questions.
1. What's the good starting percentage to start with hangsen flavors?
i.e. Ry4/ Some people did 8% and some people did 5%, and some people said 1 drop per ml.
2. I also got some peppermint lime and menthol. what's the good percentage to mix these? can these be mixed with tobacco flavors? if so what percentage should I start play with the mix?

Thanks,
Eric

I think 5% would be a good starting point for you. If you think it's too much flavor after you try it then just add a ml of vg/pg to your mix and that should dilute it down enough for you. If you dont think it has enough flavor then just add 1 drop per ml to your mix on top of the 5% that you originally started out with.

2. I also got some peppermint lime and menthol. what's the good percentage to mix these? can these be mixed with tobacco flavors? if so what percentage should I start play with the mix?


Correct me if i'm wrong Fran but I think the percentages are 6% peppermint/6% lime for a good 50/50 mix. Total flavoring @ 12%. I would wait and add the menthol after the mix. That way you can just add small percentages until you get what your looking for. My menthol percentages vary way too much so that's what I usually do on new recipes. I haven't tried peppermint with a tobacco yet.

Hope this helps.

The more the flavoring is added, the more the tobacco will stand out. I like the 2.8% because the other flavors will be more dominant. 5% is a good starting point. The reason I backed down is because I'm seeing fast coil gunking from the plant matter. If I get the same results from the 2.8%. I'll probably go back up. I'm vaping the ry4 at 2.8%, and sure is tasty.
