Now this is something that peaks my interest...and so the browsing for a next order begins.

Yes, at the recommended percentage of 13%.
I haven’t mixed anything, but at least all my concentrates are now organized again and I can consider starting to mix again

@Friep - I sort alphabetical - that was grouped my letter of the alphabet - before I sorted and packed each letter in my concentrate storage containers

Mine are in ziplock bags by recipe.
Not the most efficient when making a new recipe but works well for the staple mixes cause everything is one bag and ready to go!
I also need to do some sorting out but keep on postponing it. I like the idea of containers for each letter. I am currently contemplating an idee of putting certain flavours together and then sorting alphabetically but i suck with organization
Currently wrecking my 120ml bottle, enjoying this remix alot. With the exception of the horrid add of cap sweet straw in the mix.
Lol i do exactly the same haha ! and if a one or more recipes call for the same, i deant it into 10 ml bottles and place inside each flavour zip lock xD

I've never understood that system. It's fine if one only mixes three or four staple recipes. But, to illustrate, I have 114 recipes that use FA Meringue. Which bag does my bottle of Meringue go into? And how do I remember which bag it's in when I mix another recipe that has Meringue?
For me, the simplest has been dual alphabetical. So I keep all my concentrates that start with A together. But then I split them into FA A, TFA A, Cap A and so on, using permanent marker coloured dots on the bottle cap to identify the brand - red for FA, green for Cap, etc. For most lines and most letters of the alphabet, there will only be a couple of concentrates. For TFA H, for example, I only have Horchata, Honeysuckle and Hazelnut Praline. So if I'm looking for any of those, I go to the H section, look for the TFA caps with blue dots, and my search is already narrowed from 300+ down to just three bottles. Often it's just one bottle. Jelly Candy is my only Cap that starts with J, Yellow Cake is my only FW that starts with Y, and so on. So they are instantly findable.
Trivia point: YMMV but FA M is the most common concentrate for me: Marshmallow, Meringue, Morning Sun, Metaphor, Madagascar Vanilla, Maple Syrup, Mandarin, Marzipan, Melon Cantaloupe, MTS Vape Wizard. Luckily I never bought Mad Fruit, Menthol, Mango, Mangosteen, Monsoon, Maxx Blend and Milk, or things would have got really hectic.
@RichJB , maybe some advice on how you rate the recipies, I have a growing number and get a bit confused when searching for the ones I really like, but have to go through everything. At this stage al my adv's have that as a prelim to the name so they are grouped together at the top. Would be interesting to know.I've never understood that system.

I don't rate my recipes, I just remember them along with making notes. In DIY Juice Calculator, there is a Notes section on each recipe. So the first time I mix and vape it, I might note "Good, mix again but increase FA Mandarin by 0.5% next time" or somesuch. If a recipe is not good, I'll just note "don't mix again". It's tempting to delete it but then the tendency is to forget it and download it again at some point.
That's my problem, used to delete the toilet bowl mixes and low and behold they reappear. Will make the adjustment to my behavior and add the comment in line one, in capitals in some instances. Thanks again.
I use the rating option on DIY Juice Calculator. It allows you to select 1 - 5. I make a note of rating the recipes I don't like with a 1 as untested recipes have no rating yet.
I also use the 1-5 rating system on the DIY juice calculator

Mixed a few new ones
Juicy J's Sizzurp - A fun mix using FW Jungle juice - light and refreshing with oodles of fruity flavour
Figaro #DMC Challenge - Restock...
Cloud City - As mentioned by @Andre. I find this one very one dimensional after a week - but still good! Might add a fruit of sorts to boost it a bit
Dumbo Ears - a simple, low % Palmiers with a touch of Cardamom - surprisingly good!
The Vaping Rabbit: Milky O's [#REMIXMONTH] - Vapable Oreos!
Pomegranate ice cream - A delicious tart ice cream
Blueberry Custard - A delicious use of FLV Blueberry Muffin - a winner this one!!
BlueHue - "A recipe that tastes and feels like the color blue"
Leche de Coco (Coconut Milk) - This is by the best recipe I have mixed this year! A thick coconut cream with no sun tan lotion in sight!
Milk Plus by Bonzai Vapors #REMIXMONTH - A relatively simple Creamy Salted Caramel Drenched in Milk

Have you made this before or did you whip up 400mls first time?

Nope first time
That is a brave decision. I restrict myself to 20ml of recipes I haven't tasted before.

Hope it’s as awesome as 400mls deserves!!!
Let us know
Brave or stupid, only time will tell .
First time I’ve ever mixed 400ml’s of anything.
