just did my first 2 diy. they both seem to be lacking in flavor. i used 10% of what i thought were strong flavors(licorice and cinnamon) they dont taste bad just light. do they get better after sitting or should i add more flavor?
my first go at diy

I would not hesitate to add more flavor! Give it a try, as I don't think have the juice sitting will make the flavor stronger, maybe just a bit more balanced!
Look forward to see how it goes for you! I like that you are giving it a try!

As Iffy said, who made the flavorings?
If you read Hoosier's blog, it could go either way. Too much or too little flavor.

I use Lorann flavorings pretty much exclusively and would offer that 10% is probably too much flavoring. I haven't tried it but suggest you try the licorice at 5% and add just a bit of ethyl maltol to the mix - I use Lorann's cotton candy, which is just EM dissolved in PG. IME (and I work with straight VG and guess I use a tad more flavoring because of it) 5% licorice and 2% cotton candy would be a pretty good starting point.
