02.05.2011. satURday. DIY, Proper, First Attempt. The Perfumer's Apprentice.

Alright. I made some 6mg max eliquid using vg and flavours from the Perfumer's Apprentice.

raspberry.
green apple.
grape.
mango.
pear.
canteloupe.
fruit punch. (made from the leftovers of the other flavours that wouldn't fit.)

I first made the juice by halving a concentration of 48 mg down to 6. I mixed my flavours with the result, so I'd be working with a little lower concentration of nicotine. I mixed my juices at 25% flavour. With some of these, I suppose it turned out well. I would not recommend this concentration with the green apple. Blech. Yah. It was a bit strong. I will probably mess with these flavours later, and dilute them with some of the remaining 6mg plain juice I mixed up.

I would not count this first attempt at DIY very successful. Looks like I have some tweaking to do.

....

Okay, I diluted the grape and the mango. That gave me a crap ton of ejuice with no flavour. At least I know my base doesn't taste like butts. So I added the rest of my flavourings, and that just sucked. Sucked. No flavour. Well, that's money wasted, right? My two favourite flavours, ruined.

I got a clean atty and tested all but the apple. Turns out their flavours are strong, but I like them that way. It must have been the apple that ruined it all for me. Damn. I can't believe I ruined my two favourite flavours, with no good Vaporbomb left. I'm so screwed. This is what I get for trying to save money, right?

As I was testing the flavours, I came to realise something. They are just mostly awful, but in a familiar way. Even when the mango was stronger, it didn't taste like a mango. You know what? It reminded me severly of Viking Vapor. Blech.

Before someone gets all uppity, yes, I did make sure to order from the flavour section.

Aside from beakers and bottles, I think I will never order from the Perfumer's Apprentice, ever again. ..well, for ejuice flavouring supplies, anyway. They have a ton of good stuff for those of us who make our own chapstick and the like. But wow, their flavours vape like .....

****

I just got my new Joye Ego-T in the mail, and the juices taste far better. Sure, they still don't taste like what they're supposed to, but at least they're far more tolerable. They still beat Viking Vapor.
