These are diluted using 1 part original sweetener + 9 parts PG (DaveJ's ratio).

I resisted this for the longest ever, b/c I'm stubborn, but now I will admit that these ratios work exceptionally well. However I do not use the tiny dilutions of 1:29 but only b/c I don't make samples smaller than 5ml. I need at least 5 ml to properly test by dripping, tank, and LR, then still have a bit left for comparison to the next batch

Hehe....good to know, although I was just playing with you.

I too only do the 1:9 ratio..simply because the higher dilution in simpliest terms allows only 2 drops then the 3rd drop is equivilant to 1 drop of the lower dilution.
Yet, it is the perfect way to fine tune a juices sweetness....personally, I am not that worried if its a bit too sweet.

Did that make any sense? It did in my head but looks funny written.

Just tasted my trash bottle and it is pretty good. So far the recipe is:
5% chocolate
5% coconut
4% banana
1% cinnamon
My base is about 25% vg and works out to 16 mg nic.

It still needs some tweaking - a bit less banana, a bit more coconut and cinnamon, but it looks promising.
Unfortunately, I have about a weeks worth of this, so it will be a bit before I can get to work on it.

BTW, I am going to call it Puerta Vallarta - the idea being coconut and banana from the beach and the cinnamon and chocolate = Mexican chocolate.

[Shado]

I must say....that is not a bad trash bottle at all... I sure wish some of mine in the past were that acceptable. Thankfully, mine are all gone now....but I am sure new ones will be in my future.

sweet tarts/shocktarts

10% TPA Blueberry Extra
5% TPA Red Bull
3% TPA Sour (malic acid diluted at 20%)
total flavoring = 18%

tastes just like sweet tarts when the malic acid isn't added, and tastes like shocktarts when it is added
