But I just can't get many to work. I've tried 4 thus far and only like a strawberry menthol I made. Blueberry was vapable but not very good, watermelon and raspberry went straight to the drain even after a steep.

For those of you that prefer a minty/menthol vape, what percentages of fruit do you often go with? BB and WM are pretty popular mixes so it's possible i'm screwing something up.

Any help would be appreciated. :)

You could have just added the three together. Some of my worse "mixstakes" have been my best juices. I'm just sayin'. . .

I personally start lower than the recommended percentage and build my way up to what makes my own taste buds happy. It takes some experimentation. (be careful with the watermelon because it is a tank cracker, I hate that I know that for sure:D) I love a strong menthol and I mix crystals and Everclear (Pure Grain Alcohol) 50/50. I just add one drop at a time to 10mls of juice. I have had juices that were just "meh" and I added menthol and they were better. Just another little trick. Just do not get discouraged. We have all made juices that were less than stellar. That's just part of it. But when you get it right. . . so worth it. Good luck to you.

I only dumped the wm and raspberry and they were only 3ml so it wasn't much of a loss. I managed to add a bit more flavor to my bb and it has gotten better.

I'm not really sure the fruit menthol mixes are for me. I've concocted them in made form and wasn't a fan either but thought it was worth a try in diy. I'm coming to the conclusion that I only like straight menthol and mint mixes, sometimes w/ vanilla or some type of sweeter non fruit flavor.

I'm working on my crystals too. Started with 10% as WL suggests but it's far to week. I'm at 1/2tsp in a 10ml bottle now and think there's still room too add more, don't want to add to much and not have them dissolve (pg).

Today i'll be experimenting with vanilla, peppermint and spearmint. Maybe a bit of peach...

Actually randall, the flavors are a mixture of different vendors.
Flavour Art / some capella.

I would just get all from Inawera, that's my favorite brand.
But this is still awesome using other vendors.
I swear, you won't be able to put it down.
p.s
go here for maybe some other recipes u may enjoy.

p.s
you may say you won't buy till end of the month...but that trick doesn't work too well with DIY'ers.....lmao...
