So the original recipe is 4.75% total flavoring (I used 1.5% white peach), which sounded low so I scaled the overall from there to 6%, HIC you're probably laughing... tasted really exciting on day 2 but after a week, the flavor was so strong it was giving me instant vapetongue in my dripper. Planning on adding some unflavored 3mg base, I set it on the shelf for later...
Later never came but I put the 6% mix in my new cloud chaser rig and I love it. As usual some dark and low notes are muted, it doesn't pop like my dripper, but for clouds the taste is very very nice. As a flavor junkie and new to wide open RTA's like the Goliath by UD, I really like customizing mixes to taste good in that beast. Still a newb only had it a few days. A flat 15% increase for example in flavoring is not really sufficient for cloud conversion, some bold simple flavors can be muted without tasting different like HIC's soda flavors.
My accidental "flavor clouds bro" version.
Not vapeable imo unless you know your setup mutes flavors, in which case this compensates well.
If you've never tried distilled h2o in your max vg mix, give it a shot - less gloop, better steeping/passive mixing, better wicking... slight "steam" feel, barely noticeable at 2%, obvious at 5%. Doesn't "help" clouds but I like the feel. Water doesn't mute flavor IME, it just doesn't atomize into visible vapor.

>>DROP NIC IN HALF AT LEAST! If your build is cloudy enough for this to taste proper, you're consuming a ton of juice. My usual 3-4mg gives me the jitters here<<
Having a use for flavors at varying concentrations is another great reason to mix recipe concentrates independent of the base
I should take my own advice... seems like always in test mode...
