Think I found my ADV

Note: Not sure if this goes here or in recipes.

So while experimenting with my DIY stuff I wanted to make a cereal flavor and try out Cinnamon Ceylon.

I took some look around the forums and not having Yellow Cake in my current collection here is what I came up with and am pleasantly surprised (enough to have gone through about 30ml) in the last 24 hours. The flavors are there...maybe even a little muted for my taste. Any suggestions for fixing that?

Cereal Base per 15ml:
1 drop FW Graham Cracker
3 drops FA Cookie
3 drops FA Meringue
3 drops FA Marshmallow
5 drops FA Vienna Cream
1 or 2 drops Sweetner

The Cinnamon Goodness:
3 to 4 drops FA Cinnamon Ceylon
3 drops FA Coconut
3 drops FA Lemon

Alternative 1:
Take out Coconut and Lemon..add 5 drops apple and it's a decent apple cinnamon cereal.
Alternative 2:
Take out Coconut ..bump up Lemon to 6 drops and add Lime Tahiti 4 drops for a fruity cereal.

Questions:
For the more initiated at Flavor Arts and DIY. Do these numbers look right?
I'm figuring 3 drops is equivalent to approx 1% in 15ml (doing some calculator magic)
I'd hate to mix up 120 ml of this and have it turn into soggy molded cereal in a few days.

Also will bumping up the meringue and marshmallow increase that sweet cereal coating flavor?

They look right.

I'm figuring 3 drops is equivalent to approx 1% in 15ml (doing some calculator magic)

I would just change the work "drop" to % (approx.17% total flavor about right for me).
If:
1 drop FW Graham Cracker
3 drops FA Cookie
3 drops FA Meringue
Then:
FW Graham Cracker 1%
FA Cookie 3%
FA Meringue 3% -----etc.

I'd hate to mix up 120 ml of this and have it turn into soggy molded cereal in a few days.

Recommend, don't mix 120 of this.
Suggest 5 ml for 1-2 week steep. Might want to test after a week and see. If not 2 weeks or more would make me feel comfortable.
If you have any additional questions, just hit "like" at bottom right hand corner and I will get back to this thread.

Remember that "drops" aren't the most accurate measurement. The size of the dropper on the bottle and how hard you squeeze can make a BIG difference. Do you have a pipette or syringe you can use instead? It's a lot easier to duplicate your recipe that way.
