Welcome CC. There is a method to the madness. I’m still figuring it out too. 
I tried mixing a max VG last night. I wasnt crazy about it. Flavors were muted but I’m letting it steep a bit to see if that helps The clouds were pretty impressive though. xD

Max VG def needs a good steep imho

Hmmm, I’m wondering if, knowing the flavors will be muted when using 100% VG, a substantially larger % of flavor is added at the beginning would make the adjustment for it. Some flavors are going to carry more of a ‘bite’ or ‘bitterness’, but that could also be adjusted for by the addition of ‘salty’ or ‘sweet’. Oooo, this is going to be so much fun! {only slightly evil cackle

You’ll find some flavours are strong steepers so if you’re a long steeper (like me) then they may be overwhelming (ymmv).
Basically though - just have a play around and find what method works for you - that’s the fun bit

I had read one of the biggest mistakes beginners make is adding too much flavoring to a mix which can ruin it. It’s tempting to want to add more but I think I’ll go with what the experts here suggest (Lolly) and wait patiently for it to steep a bit. Maybe find some good shake and vape recipes while you’re waiting. There’s a few threads here in the forum on that.

This does pose another question though. If after a good steep it simply is still too blase’, is it advisable to add say a flavor base to it to jazz it up? One that’s been steeping as well as opposed to just adding more flavoring?

After a steep I’d add more of the flavouring I felt was missing. If you’ve got a flavour base mixed up you could add some of that instead - my adv by @Alisa is Bust a nut - I have this flavour base pre-mixed and it does (to me) seem to steep more quickly than making it up from scratch with the individual flavours.
This thread should hold the answers (iirc 
)

Good info and yeah I’ve run across that recipe quite a few times while reading the forum. Vaping nuts doesnt sound too appealing. How is it?
It is the ambrosia of Gods - creamy, heavenly and perfectly balanced in terms of flavours. I cannot recommend it enough

Ha yeah, I read all the reviews. It was just my sad attempt at being naughty. I do love a good double entendre. But I guess I shouldn’t try that here. Especially with a mod. Sorry Lolly. xD

I love to hear from the newbie mixers. It immediately takes me right back to the feeling I had when I mixed my first recipe and how happy I was that it was not only vapable but actually tasted better than I was expecting. For me that was the moment I knew I was gonna dive right in to DIY eliquid mixing. Not only was it delicious and exciting but also financially beneficial. WIN WIN WIN

Congrats on your first mix! I left you a comment on the recipe. Please go read that now.
Keep after it. DIY is far more gratifying than buying store bought juice!

Yes it was quite satisfying. After reading all the posts on first bad mixes I wasn’t expecting it to taste so good. Even before steeping. 
Thank you @SthrnMixer. Done
I added the recipe I used and adapted in the heading, since I made my first mix private. I chose it cause it was simple and had a ton of good comments. I didn’t realize at the time that even though I changed the nic level to 3mg and used SB Ripe instead, it was a copy somewhere else on the recipe side. After a month I’ve got 19 mixes steeping but will keep them private unless I know it’s not already been done. Is there an easy way to double check for copies before posting a recipe or is it just a matter of searching out flavors? I never had a notification when I originally posted mine till a week later. In fact I just did a search and see a ton of different recipes with copy headings . I’m sure that’s hard to control since people can decide whether to make their mix private or not . But for anyone new reading this, it might be good for them to know as well to keep the amount of double listings to a minimum.
