mixing flavors, dripping

[samilton]

I would like to know about mixing flavors for dripping. I am a menthol smoker so I prefer a menthol taste, but what if I want to try say apple flavoring...right now I am only dripping one drop of menthol onto my atty, so would I drip one drop of each or pre-mix? thanks in advance!

I mix drops when I drip all the time. I use one drop of vanilla and 2 drops of tobacco. I've thought about just mixing in a bottle but it's so easy just to do it in the atty.

This sounds like a great idea to me. I'm curious though..... how would this method compare the mixing in the bottle. What I mean is; Would adding equivalent amounts to a drip and a bottle mix end up tasting the same. I guess it would right? The only problem I see with your method is that I drip 3 drops at a time. If I add one drop of a new flavor I'm adding 25% to the mix. What do you do when you have a flavor that needs to be much lower than 25% because it's an intensely strong flavor. Is there a way to add part of a drop?

In that case your probably better off mixing it in a bottle. I think the flavors mix better when it's done in a bottle and shook up, but I still end up mixing in the atty most of the time just cause it's easier

I don't worry too much about getting it exact every time. I just like a little vanilla in my tobacco flavor. If I were picky, I'd probably measure and mix in a bottle. I just don't care if the ratios are spot-on every time. Actually there is a way to get part of a drop. Squeeze the bottle until there's some juice coming out of the tip and touch it to the hole in your drip tip. I know, kind of wierd, but it works with strong flavors like cinnamon or menthol if you want just a touch.

and for a really strong flavor like that I will not put any more of that flavor and just add 3 drops of the other, menthol will last and last and last...

ps... I am vaping tastyvapors cough drop, very minty but I wanted some of my homebrew of honeysuckle-pear so instead of getting a clean atty I dripped it on the same atty and wow! pears with an undertone of mint, niiiice.

I do it all the time...
I do 2 drops of menthol...then 2 drops of whatever else....it won't flood the atty with 4 drops....so just do it!!
Enjoy
