Welcome racan. There is a whole section on DIY juices where you can find tons of information on ratios, recipes, etc. Make sure you read the sticky's. they go into great detail on what kinds of flavorings you can use

Welcome to the Forums here!
The online vendor that I do business with says to use 10% flavoring in an e-juice. That gives me a number to start with.. Depending on the flavor of an e-juice and the flavor of the flavoring to be added, I would use a little less or a little more. An exact ratio depends on one's tongue..

The ratio is usually 20-30. Suit to taste. depends on the flavor... and your taste buds, and where the flavor is from,.... etc...etc...etc

The best place to look for ratios is the manufacturers website. Start with whatever they recommend and then adjust to taste.
I do 10-15% in mine. I tried more than that last night, and it was way too strong for me. (I don't really like a lot of flavor.) It also depends on the flavor. For example, when I make a honey-flavored juice, I can add almost no flavoring, and it still comes through loud and clear. I learned that the hard way last night. Haha! I ended up making a larger batch than intended, because I had to dilute it with quite a bit of VG/PG to tone it down.
I start at 2% and taste, let steep about a week and taste again.
You'd be surprised how many flavours add a great subtle note at 2% but taste dreadful anywhere near 20%. Plus it's easier to taste and add a little more than it is to dilute. Plus there's another added bonus: if you start that low and find you hate that flavor, you can mute it with another flavor much more easily instead of mixing juice you'll never use.

exactly, I am vaping with about 3-4% flavor and that is in 100%vg base
