Dave I think my sweet spot for the TPA ry4 double is pretty much:

30% flavor
1 drop acetyl pyrazine per 1 ml

I think my heavy VG use (50-75%) is part of the issue, and as you said above more PG might be a fix

I'm kind of bummed that I have to go so high on the flavor, but hey, it happens from time to time

If a few of us have the same experience Linda may be amenable to producing something more concentrated

for my next mix I'll try 75% PG and see if it makes a difference

I was just going to mix the TPA Ry4 double and was going to ask others for percentages. I like strong flavors as I mix 50/50 pg to vg and am a carto user. Want to mix some TPA Black Honey, do you have any experience with this? Thanks

I admire the patience! I vape right after a hot water bath and return to room temp. It does improve with steeping, but I'm content to vape through that improvement :)

If a mix is right, its always good enough for me to vape right away. it only gets better with time. but never goes from crap to great. just great to greater.

I don't have the black honey so I can't comment

I'm curious to see what you get with your RY4, please keep us posted!

Tasted today and it is plain nasty, still smells like burnt popcorn. I wouldn't exactly describe my taste as delicate, I like strong flavors but this stuff at 25% isn't to strong just tastes horrible. Will be making my own.

unfortunately i rave about the RY4 double, so it may be confusing nevertheless lol

I'd trust your opinion over mine though, I'm brain dead these days

Your opinion as good as mine the difference here is TASTE BUDS and that is what makes DIYing so tough, but I am going to stay with it. It's nice to get starting percentages with new flavor but again the big variable enters, for me it just seems to be trial and error start low and work up. Haven't found great shortcut yet.
