What he said ^^^ 25% is really high and if it has, for example, ethyl maltol in it which many flavors do, it will mute the juice and make it flavorless. If you started low and still came to this then it may be a weak flavor. I’m not familiar with peach and don’t have any so I can’t help with that. Maybe someone with some peach experience can step in to help you find a solution.

A general rule for me is I keep my flavoring total around 10%. If it’s one or several flavors 10% on average and I’d say no more than 15%. It also depends on the brand of flavorings used as well. I know Flavorah is supposed to take much less, like 1-2% most times. Also super concentrates I think is this way as well, hence the name. If you go to E-Liquid recipe forum you can look up flavorings and see what % most mixers use them at. It’s a very helpful site especially when just getting started

If you like orange or citrus flavors you may want to buy some of them. Citrus flavorings seem to me to have a strong flavor that you may have a better chance of tasting. Try other mints considering you can taste peppermint, generally speaking they tend to have a strong flavor also.

I have tried a few peaches, and Inarwa bronzwiki (peach) is my hands down favorite. I think its strong. I use it at 3-4% when mixing with other fruits, or 5% when mixing with 2% menthol. Liquid barn would be my second favorite, at 8-10%.

I usually start CAP flavors at 5% sft or 3% mix. FA white peach is good for boosting orange and mango flavors. Is there a reason you are only looking at INW flavors?

Could I convince you to try this? I swear I can't imagine that anyone could say they can't taste this juice.


Sour Peach Gum

Cinnamon red hots (TFA) 1.5%
Ethyl Vanillin 10% (TFA) 4%
Lemonade (Natural) (FW) 1%
Marshmallow (FA) 1.25%
Orange Mandarin (TFA) 2%
Peach (FW) 2.85%
Sweet and Tart (TFA) 0.5%
Two Apples (DIYFS) 0.8% (Cap Double Apple would be an ok sub.)
Wintergreen (TFA) 4.5%

It took about a week for these flavors to blend well.

i'll buy a bunch of those, so, thanks.
nada, i'm not set up to do teeny %s.
i'm more a teaspoon/tablespoon kinda gal, but i do have an 1/8 teaspoon measure.
i even have a syringe thing that measures mls, but half %s i can't do.

the only thing i taste is peppermint n that's 5 Ts base n 1T peppermint, i guess that's 16 2/3%.
i can do that.

I think you should be fine not getting the % dead on. The way I mix is very loose and my juices taste good. I have a mark on my bottles that is 10% and when I combine my flavorings I get as close to the line as possible. I have a couple bottles of similar flavors going at the same time. That way if I want to switch flavors I don’t have to worry about rewicking right away. I’ll combine similar juices in the same bottle to experiment. I’ll have a strawberry juice that’s made with a few different strawberry flavorings and maybe a cream or ice cream sometimes. Then I’ll have another bottle with a citrus mix. Sometimes I want my strawberry to have a little citrus or vice versa and I’ll mix them together in my tank or squonker, it keeps things interesting and helps to avoid flavor burnout. Anyway good luck finding what mixing techniques work for you and in finding a recipe you not only can taste, but love the flavor of.

Mix by weight. It is much more accurate imho

CAP Peach flavorings are weird. They don't even taste like peach to me. JF makes a good one called Honey Peach. It's been my favorite recently.

old thread but i found something out.
i haven't mixed my new flavors yet, but i added some cap strawberry to the peach.
i taste no strawberry at all.
but, now i'm actually tasting some peach.
it's very nice.
i bet they use the same chemicals making strawberry as they do peach.
