Chemical compounds in concentrates

[rossdamusic]

Hey,
(first post)
I have been enjoying DIY'ing for several months now. Such a great feeling making a batch that your mates all go bananas for.
I was looking to study up a bit on the science behind flavour mixing, because I find it real interesting, but I'm not sure where to start. Googling the topic just brings up either health-related articles, or basic "how-to" guides.
What i mean is, I'm sure certain flavours go well together due to chemicals working well together (never mind the actual flavour profile) and others not so well due to the opposite reason, like putting two flavours that contain butyric acid together and then "look ma, I made puke flavour."
Any links to some good reading material would be appreciated.
Cheers

Can't give you an exact list of reactions between all the chemicals of all the flavors, since I'm not a chemist or a food technologist, but you can have a look at the chemical composition of flavors from manufacturers that provide it like TFA:

Thanks man. That helps.
So, I suppose if I wanted to get better at mixing, like really better, then it would be a good idea to study some food technology part-time.
