My thoughts on flavoring percentages!

[EWS111]

I understand:
I'm an old fart with burned out tastebuds!
The difference between PG and VG in flavor carrying
The difference between FA and other vendors in "flavor strength"
That steeping sometimes improves the results
The differences between individual flavors and the anount required

Having said all that:

For Me; FA flavors need to be at least 10% and TPA flavors at 20%!!!!!
Anything less and it doesn't "float my boat"

If you like 10% FA and 20% TFA, you'd probably use 25-40% of Flavor West....just in case you pick up any of those.

Thanks much for the heads up! I think I'll stick with FA and TPA and see if my tastebuds improve over time

It does get better, but it does take time.
You might find too that some flavors come through better than others. I have some pretty stubborn taste buds but some flavors I can't take much of while others I can't taste at all. If you have found what works for you then that is all that matters.

25-40% flavorwest really??? That's a lot of flavoring XD I need help!!! I normally like thicker juice... Anywhere from 70vg and higher. And I have Capella and flavorwest brands. Can someone help Me with percentages as far as flavor goes???? I have had ok luck so far but not quite what I have been looking for >.<

That was for the original poster! ...someone who likes FlavourArt at 10% and TFA at 20% would definitely use around 25-40% for FW flavors, yep.

Ok I will try using higher percentages. I have been using 5-10% but what about Capella?does anyone know anything about a good percentage for great flavor with the Capella brand?

wow.. and i panic when mine go over 10% now..
for total flavoring.. most of mine are 5% and under..
i just can not see tfa at any 20%..
try that with the bacon or the caramel cappuccino.. wow... just mind blown..

have you tried to lower your flavor percentages?
just curious, EWS.. and wish you the best of luck with this..

we still do not know what kind of effects this will cause, us vaping the flavorings..

i shake thinking about it at 20%
i barely use no more than 2% if that..

but i can understand.. if you cant taste it..

but normally no taste means you overflavored..

i wonder.. if we can over flavor.. the flavor fades.. then increase again and it might come back??
