How many samples to make?

[316lvm]

I have a ton of flavorings and just mixed about 10 samples so far and am letting them steep in VG. (No nic at this time.)

I plan on working on the simple flavors first ..... 2 samples for a few days.... then another 2 samples..... moving onto the more complex...... repeating the process if needed. I figure this way, the flavors get to steep longer between sampling times.


So how many samples do most of you make up at one time? Do you work on only a few samples or do you mix up a batch?

I will usually do about 6-10 new tries at 3ml and let them sit for about a week. Then try them one per day. Slow going, but I've come up with a couple I really like a lot. I find taste sampling more than one at a time gets my taste buds all messed up.

One that i'm currently in love with was just a shot in the dark.

50% vg
10% TPA Pina Colada
5% TPA Vanilla Bean Icecream

EDIT: This one also took a long time to "cure" maybe 10 days.

Thanks for the reply Pico. I was thinking that maybe I was nuts for doing 10 samples from the get go.

Does this imply 35% PG ???
