So not new to vaping but really new to DIY ejuice ... I have been using MBV flavoring I found it to be about 36 drops per mill.

? 1 .. Has any body used these floavors much ?

#2 I am mixing at 50/50 20% flavoring .. This seems to be good

# 3 How long do you guys let a 15 or 30ml bottle steep

#4 When steeping .. in the dark in window ?? open or closed top ???

#5 I have a rock tumbler is 5mins. in that ok or should I just shake it ???/

Thanks for the help in advance :blink:

I just keep mine with the cap on, shake and keep in a dark place for a few days, shaking a couple of times a day. If when you mix your juice it smells floral or chemical like, then leave the cap off overnight then put it back on and continue to steep with the lid on. I sometimes put the bottled when mixed in warm water for about 15 mins then shake, this seems to speed it up a touch. Many other people will do this completely different but this works for me :)

Thanks Guys .. What about hte percentage of falvoring is 20 or 22 lite I have seen some up to 40% ????

My recipes vary from 0.35% to 35% total flavoring. I arrive at the percentage based on what gives me the strongest flavor for the specific flavorings.

Click that "3" under my avatar next to "Blog Entries:". There is a blog there about Flavoring Levels and it explains how more flavoring can result in less flavor. So you tasting "lite" may not be too little, it may actually be too much. Tough to say, but that blog should have enough in it so that you can determine if it is too much or too little yourself.

Since each flavoring is different, answering a blanket statement on flavoring percentage would only lead to misinformation.
