How much of FW, FA, and TFA to use

Need a little help. I have recently purchased some flavorings from Flavor Arts, Flavor West, and The Flavor Apprentice. I have been a steady customer of Vaping Zone and normally mix at 3% flavor. I have tried to find recommendations for these new flavorings but the suggestions seem to be all over the map. Can someone give me a good place to start for each of these brands? I would probably prefer it a little on the stronger rather than weaker side.

Depends on which flavors you have sometimes.
But usually:
FA 2% to start
FW 7-10% to start
TFA 5-7% to start
CAP 5% to start
INW 2% to start

Although VZ-SC Blackberry (or FE Blackberry are 1.6%)
Be careful with certain brands of Cherry, Raspberry, FA Bilberry, Coffee, and Tirimisu.
0.5% is a safer starting point IMO.

Heabob. Thank you very much. Only vape tobacco flavors if that makes any difference. Rather surprised at the FW %. On the website where I ordered it they were recommending .25 to .50. Would there be that much difference in tobacco flavors?

There isn't really a standard answer. It depends on your taste buds.

As an example, I use different starting points than Heabob.

FA .5% - 1% to start
FW 10-15% % to start
TFA 8-12% to start

I start with 2% to 5% with all flavoring except NETS which I start at 10%. Actually ending % tends to vary by recipe. Sometime I use a flavoring at 1% sometime as high as 25%. Just depends on the target.

I start at 3%.
I generally use between 0.5% to 10%.
Tobacco flavors (not NET) tend to be really strong so I would start at 1%.

Generally speaking FA flavors are stronger, but not always and depends on the specific flavor, some TFA flavors could be too concentrated to be used at 1%

Depending on the brand of tobacco flavors it varies.
I didn't like any of the FA Tobacco flavors.
But INW, Hansen, & TE/FE (from ECX) can range from 1-4% usually.
Combining some flavors together can go a bit higher tho.
