Hey all, I have started making single flavors and I was wondering if it is possible to mix those together? say I have strawberry and vanilla custard ejuices that are already made but I want to change it up a bit and mix the 2 together. Is this possible and if so what sort of formula do you use for this? would I need to treat the percentages the same as if they were concentrated?
Would love to hear your thoughts on this as I think it would be nice for a change every once in a while without having to pull out my concentrates all the time.

Hey ellejewell! Remember the Flavor Mix Up Challenge?

Let's say you like your single strawberry at 12% and your single vanilla custard at 10%.
You can mix the 2 pre-done flavors together at any ratio you like - 20/80, 50/50, or 60/40, etc and adjust til you find the ratio you like. Do you want a v custard with a hint of strawberry or a strawberry with a bit of custard.

I do this by mixing say .6 ml of strawberry and .4 ml of v custard in a tank and trying that. That's not quite what I want so try .7 ml strawberry and .3 ml vanilla custard. Ah - perfect. Using 1ml total mixed flavor in a tank makes it easy to do the math later on when you want to make that flavor from scratch. Plus if you don't like it, you have not wasted much so their is a low guilt factor if you are as frugal (read cheapskate) as I am.

Now if you want to mix this blend straight from the flavors, not using your premixed single flavors, it would be .7 * 12% = 8.4% of strawberry flavor and .3 * 10% = 3% of vanilla custard.
Does that make sense?

I spent the better part of a weekend a few weeks ago doing just that to reduce the number of small single flavor bottles I had. With help from others, including you, I came up with some new mixes that I really liked.

I am sure others will have their own approach as well.
As always, it is play around, learn what works for you, and do it your way.

Thanks! You answered my question entirely and I was going to ask how to input that into percentages for mixing from scratch but you answered that as well. Awesome! thanks so much and yep I remember :) I figured they could be mixed but wasn't sure if the calculation process was the same as concentrate. Did you ever come up with any good flavors?
