Is this for a 30 ml batch? What brand of NIC? What equipment are you using? Mod, atty, etc

Per the notes, it looks like they steeped it a minimum of a week....

Ive been told i must add alot more flavor, but im not sure, if they are correct because i keep adding flavor and it just makes it watery, im using 80/20 premix of vg/pg.

I think for Flavourt Art flavorings 18.5% is very high. Check out HIC's recipes here. Guaranteed good.

It has been said that the more you add it kills the flavors. I think Head In Clouds has a Bailey's recipe. Give me a sec, I'll go look.

I was told to add about 25% For that premix of 80/20 vg/pg. It's just not working. Do you have a link to HIC's the post Thanks in advance.Frustrated soldier.

by moving to 70/30 instead of 80/20 this can have a huge difference give that a shot lower your flavor % and move up the pg a bit

Thank you sir. i think that might be the solution, I think i added to much flavor, ile add more premix vg/pg to everything ive made. :)
reason I suggest it is one would think that it would not make much difference remember pg is a better flavor carrier i.e. most of the time the butterscotch does not take well to high vg sometimes.. I have one batch next to me 80/20 it is butterscotch concoction right next to it identical 70/30 very similar ingredients to yours the 80/20 blandish 70/30 light a totally different mix just an example of oddball stuff we run into with DIY

HIC's recipes here on VU are free. But he also has a site usually recipes are $3 well worth it! http://www.hicsmixes.com/
Before I found HIC diy was very hit & miss for me. Very happy now! One of my favorites is HIC's Lemon Meringue Pie (free recipe here).
Hope your mix works out! :)

Just keep in mind that since your pg/vg base is already a 80/20, whatever flavorings to add are going to add to the PG that's in the base as well... So for the recipe you posted, 18.5% flavor plus the 20% in your premade base... so that's 38.5% PG... so I don't think you need to increase the flavors...

I personally enjoy vape'en the Buttershots recipe found on that page more than the Bailey's.
I mention this since you already have the FA Butterscotch....:D

I already made the Bailey's one like yours. Next is the >Buttershots recipe< :)
 
You need to follow the % not the ml. Unless you are following the same total amount of 40ml
