Hi I have been mixing my own liquid for 6 years now in New Zealand and have never worked out yet what are the best ratios for flavor percentages.

Hi and welcome to ECF. The best ratio of flavors is what suits you best. It is different for every flavor and brand. A lot of people, when they get a new flavor, do a sft, a single flavor test. That is mixing up a small batch of the juice to test it and then adjust the flavor from there. Join us in the Random DIY mixing and More thread.

It's not easy, but I try to do a SFT (single flavor test) of every new flavor (10ml) Anyway, maybe this thread of mine will give you some ideas (of which brands/flavor to choose) I explain everything in the thread...

Most manufacturers suggest preferred ratios. Some don't. I use FA almost exclusively and their flavors are highly concentrated; I use 1-3%, on average. But it really varies from one brand to another.
Rule of thumb--always mix small samples first, 5 ml or so, and start low.
I'd think after 6 yrs, you would have at least drawn some kind of conclusions. Personally, I have a keen sense of smell and taste and between this and the many successes (and failures) working up percentages for flavorings isn't really an issue for me. You should be able to taste a drop of flavoring and get a working idea of how strong it is.
