Really near the mexican border.
Maya,
What is the percentage you make your liquids. LIke 10% flavor or 20% flavor or even higher. I had that problem when I first attempted DIY then I started mixing at 25% flavoring and I love it, I also shake before I drip or fill, that helps all the flavors mix together into what it is supposed to taste like.
The other thing is to let your juice "steep" for a few weeks before actually vaping it, this gives it time to MIX really well into eachothers ingredients. Also everytime you walk past your "steeping" juice, give it a good shake or two and that may help as well.

I read somewhere about a method for speeding up steeping by submerging the bottle inside a baggie into some hot water for a little while. That, and keeping it in a warm place while it steeps (warmer than room temp). Personally, I keep mine in a tin leaning against the furnace for a while. It stays warm there for a few days, while I shake at least once a day. After that, I move it off the furnace, but still near, so it stays warm for the remainder of a week or so. I shake it violently every day. If it's still losing flavor, I may give it a few more days of warmth or add more flavor, or both - whatever I feel like.

All that being said, I don't know what I'll do when this awful winter is over and the furnace isn't on all the time.

Usually 20 to 25 percent
