flavourart

I watch this post for a long time ago and I see that everybody uses a different amount of FA flavours ...I know that this is different for everybody in here, but is any list with recommended flavour percent?

At 10ml I mix mine at 2.5% to 5%, So I would increase from 1 drop per 10ml to 8-16 drops per 10ml. I would start out with an additional 7 drops per and then test it. I really like a 70/30 mix of periquin black/desert ship at 5%, nice and strong

5%? At 1 drop in 10ml and I can barely stand it. With all flavors. I guess the question is, should they all taste like super sugary cotton candy?

If one drop makes it taste like cotton candy, then I suspect your base mix might be the culprit. Try vaping your nic juice mixed down to the mg % you use and don't add flavoring and try vapng it straight. If it still taste like contton candy then it is the base juice. None of the tobacco flavors I mix at 2.5% - 5% taste like cotton candy, or are sweet.

I'll try the straight base here later. Also, to be more specific, it was more than cotton candy, but more like a harsh cotton candy with low vapor. But here's what I did for now:

I put in 10 gloopy drops of Humco VG in (hoping to 'smooth' the harshness out and get more vapor), and added 2 more drops of Shade in my Shade mix. Now, it's a lot smoother and more vapor (naturally). And the cotton candy flavor is gone (thankfully) but don't taste anything now. I'll slowly add more drops and hope I don't vape myself silly (got a little buzz going now)

That's weird. I usually use 3 or 4 drops of fa per 1ml. Maybe my taste buds are messed up.

Question Re: flavourart....

When flavourart says use 1 to 2 % Flavour.. Does this mean 1-2% per every ml made?
ex. So if I make a 5ml mix and wish to use 2% flavour... I add 10 drops for the mix ??

Cheers for any help guys !!

Thanks emonty,

I have been using this chart... It all ways has 20% as default for flavour and not the recommended 1 oR 2 % FA says ?

as 1 or 2 drops in a 5ml mix is not noticeable!! and I add loads more to get the flavour
Cheers Blue

The percentage of flavor is like any other percentage.

2% of 5ml total = 0.1ml
2% of 10ml total = 0.2ml

So the number of drops depends on your drop size for the liquid being dropped. It varies. Best to drop a few ml into a graduated cylinder and average. Say I dripped to 3ml and it took me 107 drops, I'd say that specific liquid in that dropper has 36 drips per ml. So if I needed 0.1ml I'd multiply 0.1 by 36 and use 4 drops.

Or I'd use a syringe as the rounding errors can stack up and make recreation when scaling up more difficult.
