Noob here also…I suggest strawnana… It’s simple, and you can see how juices age with this mix. You can buy the community recipe pack from Bull City.

Good luck with your DIY, I’ll have a look at their website I could do with searching around for a good and cheap flavouring vendor actually so thanks.
mate unfortunately i can’t say much… unfortunately these flavors you bought imho can’t be really combined very well on their own…
key lime needs more limes to make a rounded lime… like Lime (INW), some lemonade (FLV) while you will probably need some kind of sweetener like marshmallow (i use FA), Sweetener (TPA), Super Sweet( CAP) or like that…
if i was at your place i would buy some more flavors to make these more rounded OR i would try to experiment by making this…
7% Strawberry ripe (TPA)
3% Dragonfruit (TPA)
3% Raspberry (TPA)
the result should be somewhat sweet and fruity while Dragonfruit and strawberry should be taste a lil stronger… if someone wants to correct me on percentage feel free to do it please 
or has a better idea…

I’ll try that mix later on so thanks for the suggestion, and yeah I messed up lol but it’s all good I’ll soon have the other flavourings ordered and next time I’ll be more mindful of what is compatible with most recipes.

You got some solid flavors. You’ll be able to make juice you’ll probably like more than most commercial vapes with those, have a look at these flavor tasting methods:

I should explain further. I think the most important thing to do as a n00b is to test singles. Those methods will get you close starting percentages that you can check against the database. The ELR database is not super reliable on singles because not a lot of folks enyer info on singles.
Beware that steeping can turn floral to tobacco…nassty into custard…but some flavors also lose complexity fast and are better young. Good luck!

Hey man, thanks for taking the time to explain all that, and thanks for the link im definitely gonna give that a read when I get 5 mins. Yeah I did notice single flavour recipes are pretty much non existent, I’m going to “learn” my flavour profiles and steeping characteristics as you suggested and take it from there I think.
And I’m hoping it will be better than commercial juice, seems with the help available here I should be half decent in no time, I’m honestly overwhelmed by the amount of good, knowledgeable people like yourself who have taken the time to give me advice. So thanks again.

Once you learn what can be done and what you like, commercial juice will taste nassy. I am a big fan of florals and you’ll find most of my recipes have floral accents or even a floral focus. I mix what I like to vape on the hardware I use…commercial will never get you there, but folks on here will. We all had to start doing this, many of us with no prior knowledge. On ELR you have some of the nicest people in the world sharing their knowledge, it’s what we do and hopefully it gets you off to a good start quickly. Don’t get discouraged, it’s not that hard.
You’ll come to discover for yourself if you prefer the bright fruits, florals, and teas with strong nasal components or deeper flavors of creams and bakeries or perhaps tobaccos, which taste better than any cigar or cigarette because you made what you like to vape. PG/VG ratios are easily altered and you can decide for yourself what is appropriate for you gear, mix, and vaping style. The atomizers now available have really changed what can be done to mixes. Best of luck and welcome to the fam!

Definitely gonna be a fun road ahead discovering what I like and what works etc, I’ve already increased my knowledge 10 fold reading all the advice I’ve had here. I’m also gonna have to try your recipes some time for sure, maybe I too can appreciate floral accents but I just don’t know it yet!
You’re definitely right about the people on ELR being wise and friendly too, you guys have got me passionate about this now, and it’s certainly given me a confidence to experiment with base ratios and so on. And who knows, perhaps I’ll be able to pay it forward and help some lost young grasshopper like myself some day eh

You’ve got the culture down perfectly already.
Ah, fair warning my vapes are skewed to the weird. I started completely blind and did some stuff that uses crazy percentages sometimes. I don’t know how many would like my mixes. I think my Thai Girl Smell is pretty solid, but Floralistic Orgasm (renamed by a fan, lol) is the one that really gets me. EVERYONE likes that juice. A simpler one is dragon suckle.
Anyway, not the point. Point is you’re on the way to learn what you like, and that is the best thing…because you can help and learn from folks with the same passion for self gratification (I mean that is this hobby…) too. If florals sound interesting, theres a great, great, great thread started by @amy2 and @DarthVapor that was my bible.
@Ken_O_Where is the mother of all custards, @Pro_Vapes is the most creative mixer I can think of @Kinnikinnick can make your vape a killer smoke, and there’s many more you will see. Just seeing these folks work is inspiring.
Enjoy the trip!

Nice one for linking those people, I’ll be sure to check their mixes out and see if anything takes my fancy. And lol, anything someone deemed appropriate to add the word orgasm to surely sounds like it’s worth a try 
. I’ll also try and remember to leave some feedback when I eventually get round to trying them, it’s the least I can do. Thanks again!

Fixed it. I think she’s Amy*** in the database. If her stash has 800 flavors…its THAT Amy

Yep. I always get confused when I try to tag her, since there’s a gazillion Amys that pop up, plus she uses a different username on the recipe side

A really nice mix is 40% strawberry, 40% apple and 20% mint of your flavor base, and the VG/PG/Nic ratios to suit your taste.
