Me too Magik, I turned some juice into soup the other day cus I am so impatient.
But I did let a tobacco recipe sit for a week and it was bland pre steep and sweet and full bodied after a week of steeping. Color changed from almost clear to lighter brown. Thats when I knew it was ready. It is worth waiting for.
I let my TFA tobaccos sit for about 10 days before I vape them and it has been working for me.
Just made some root beer 10% with vanilla swirl 5% and I will let it steep a few days
Also made TFA tutti fruiti 12%
Added sweetener to both
Will have to wait to test

Try it now!!! I want to know results
And then compare it to when it steeps
I only use drops to add some extra EM; I use the 1 ml syringe to measure the flavoring. It's a lot more accurate I think, as others here have also said.
M, you can change the drops/ml in ejuice me up. I have mine set at 32 drops/ml, since that is what I measured my drops at out of a 10 ml dripper bottle (where I store my EM).
But do what feels best to you. Here's to your success.

I do TFA Root Beer at 10% and TFA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream at 3% and it is a wonderful vape.
John at WL explained to me that the bottles are actually bigger than the ml stated, IE 3ml bottle actually can hold 5ml. Your measurments could be correct just look short in the bottle...
About to get my VZ HFC and VFC in the mail today Think I should make 5ml or 10ml batches to start? Also Im using a 50/50 36mg blend and got some pg to thin it out a little more for my cartos.How much pg do you guys think I should go with?If Im making 10mls Im thinking 8.5 of the base and 1.5 of the pg with 3 percent flavor on each to get it to about 30mg nic.Most people say they just drop about 12 drops in 10mls and then if I add a ml of pg would this be easier than the amounts the calculator for ecigexpress is telling me?Its telling me 3 percent flavor would be 6 drops. http://www.ecigexpress.com/ejuice-calculator.php

30mg is pretty strong but you probably already know that
Just don't over do the nic. It is really hard to work with tiny batches but 5 ml will let youget your feet wet without too much waste if you don't like it.Test your dropper to see if 20 drops equals 1 ml!

Yeah I vape high nic lol,I think Im going to go with 10ml batches like my last DIY batches.Like you said dealing with 5ml batches is a hassle.Would you say the calculations of 8.5 base and 1.5 pg and 3 percent flavor sounds good? I like my flavors to be strong

I'm doing 10% fruit and 5% ethyl malto
but the tobacco base that I like is 5% tobacco [asian ry4, english, virginia firecured or marlboro] 5% ethyl malto 5% caramel and 1% tobacco absolute. I let the base steep for 10 days before vaping it or adding the extras.
I am thinking about dropping the tobacco and the ethyl malto by 1% next time so I have a bit more room to add some of the other flavors.
So far I like the English tobacco base with english toffee added at 2 drops for 3 mil [20 drops per ml dropper used].
The tobaccos are pretty strong but I like them. I also like the Ry4 base with 2 drops of vanilla cupcake per 3 ml tobacco base.
From what Ive read the VZ hfc should be used much lower around 2.5 to 3 percent.The ecigexpress calculator is saying around 8.5 base with 1.5 pg and .25 mls flavor .Does this seem right?
I vaped pretty high nic during my 1st yr of vaping, mostly 24, but 36 less frequently throughout the day. I would usually buy the same juice in both strengths. Now I do mostly 18mg with occasional 12mg at night.
I've now made a couple more juices since I was able to scrounge up 2 more bottles. I made the strawberry cream (TPA flavor from WL) using 10%. At first I didn't really care for it and thought it needed more flavor. But I decided to add more EM, and now my 5ml batch tastes really good and more like strawberry cream. I had started with 1% EM, but I ended up with 5% EM.
I always thought I preferred really strong flavors, but maybe what I was really missing in some of my store-bought juices was the extra sweetener. I do like my vapes on the sweeter side.
I also made some Creamy Vanilla Mint with these TFA flavors: mint candy (10%), vanilla swirl (3%), bavarian cream (2%) and EM (4%). It won't ever be my all-day vape, but it's refreshing and leaves my breath nice and fresh. I never smoked menthols, but I have to say this recipe is pretty good. It was originally posted by:

I didn't have vanilla ice cream so I substituted vanilla swirl (is this the same thing?) and doubled the EM for my tastes.

Well I like a strong flavor so Im going to up the flavor to .3 mls and see how it turns out
Once the mailman shows up and I mix up a batch Ill let you guys know how it turns out!

Please do! Wow, I never would have guessed how much fun this DIY stuff could be. Now I have a new
I get 40 drops per ml for my pipettes on the Vaping Zone Concentrates. And I usually start about 1% on those flavorings
