Edit:most if not about 95% of this info was found using search-bar its a very valuable tool for novices like myself i recommend checking that before posting any questions
I got all the way down to TFA Blackberry and things looked good. But 5% for that flavor is overkill. I tested it at 2.5% and it was just ridiculously strong. There's no way that it was leaving my wicks. So I'd definitely keep it below 1%. But it's worth noting that it's one of TFA's more potent offerings. Good list!
Keep an eye out for comments im a novice too but i was just trying to get a starting % list together cause i couldnt find one
>INW-Black Cherry (1-32%)
This might need looking at
>CAP-Sweet Lychee-(3% Starting Point)
CAP Sweet Lychee is quite domineering. I use it in some tropical mixes between 0.25-0.75% usually. Over 1% will usually start to take over a recipe, or at least be very present.
>TPA-Coconut Candy-(5-10%)
TFA Coconut Candy is normally used around 1-2%. A lot of people get a strong sunscreen vibe from this flavour, worth bearing in mind.
​
>CAP-Sweet Lychee-(0.25-0.75% do not go over 1% )
[after your edit due to my comment]
Sorry I should have been more specific. Yes, you can definitely go over 1% with CAP Sweet Lychee, and in fact the average for this flavour on ATF is 3.29%. I mostly use it as a background flavour hence the lower percentages. For a Lychee single flavour this is often used @ 3-5%. I get off notes coming through over 1% but that's just my personal taste.
cool. i haven’t delved into fruits too much but i do have several of those flavors. i hope you get some useful comments so that this post can be something i can refer to in the future. thanks!
I honestly don't know about TPA Honeysuckle at 10-15%. I don't think I've ever used it over 3%. Solid list though. Thank you for sharing.
IIRC someone here told me LA teaberry is bad to vape..... Not 100% sure. Might want to research that. I was suggested wintergreen as a replacement.
I'm a little concerned at the TPA Honeysuckle "cracks tanks"... what do you mean by that? I'm guessing it doesn't make your tank glass crack
I didnt pull that info out of thin air my friend i was compiling this list when i started diy so i could have some idea of where to start with sfts and % for each i got this info from here https://www.reddit.com/r/DIY_eJuice/comments/1ivjog/mega_tfa_tpa_recipe_thread/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app if you think the note for that flavor is wrong please do tell me why so i can learn i havent had a chance to sft my florals yet thats next week
this is really useful for me. I like to mix batches of flavors i know I like in 120ml so I have to stick it out and sometimes it just sucks. I tried 8% TFA watermelon 4% TFA watermelon candy and 1% INW cactus juice and this list would have helped me with that one. the cactus was way too pronounced
Why not just mix 10ml batches to see if the recipe is good, then mix in bigger batches?
