I can see you're new, so I'll give you my strategies when I look at a new flavor.

Firstly, percentages vary widely from person to person. With that said, Capella's is normally in the 7-15% range. For pretty much any flavor from any manufacturer, this is where I start. This is always nice because you can add more to figure out about what % is best.

Also, another thing I do when looking to buy or work with a flavor is google it's name: https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=capella+horchata ... In this case we see a few threads talking about it, most of which are in ECF. I see one person used it at 7% in a mix with other flavors, so that's a good point to work off of.

I will say I love me some capella's. They are the best I've tried, and they are also very forgiving. I mixed one of their flavors at an absurd 25% just messing around, and I got no aftertaste. It was pointless as the flavor wasn't enhanced anymore than at 15%, but it was still nice to know it's so forgiving.

I have been making my own liquid for over 2 years now. I know how to build flavor profiles by Starting at low percentages and working them up. However, I was just wondering if anyone had already done so using this particular flavor. As it is easier to start just a bit lower than what someone else has tested and said was a good mix built up to a final product. This way with out starting off at lets say 7% then increasing by 1/4 % until you hit the mark at we shall say 14.75% I would rather someone else say they hit the Mark at about 14% then I can start building at 10% a lot less work is all I was looking for. And BTW DR.ZHIL I googled a that and went through a lot of threads prior to asking here. But if you want next time just send me the link to Let me google that for you thanks anyways
