It seems too simple- am I missing something?

That works.

So does clicking the blue number 3 below my avatar that is just to the right of "Blog".

Also clicking blog on the nav-bar below the ECF banner and then Best Blogs and I should be near the top with Lolady. (I thought that was funny and Makes me wonder how the best blogs came to be ranked the way they are. I just posted some stuff mixers have learned the hard way over the years.)

I will read up on the ethyl malitol. It sounds like this is a sweetener of some kind? I actually haven't liked some of the juice that tastes overly sweet at this time. That may change, but at the moment I am enjoying the ones that are more subdued in sweetness.

Thanks for everyone's advice! Anything else to add, please go ahead. I am a total beginner on this.

Yep, it took me awhile to figure out that it is the EM that I don't like. I prefer to use other flavors where needed. Some folks really like it and use it in all of their mixes but there are those of us out there that don't like it at all. There are many other flavors that will give depth and fullness to the juice if you find that EM is not for you.


Good luck to you.

Ok, on track now. Too many beers tonight!

I think that as long as you understand some basic algebra, the mixing part can get pretty easy. It's finding the right percentage of flavoring that makes it a little more challenging. And then just the safety risks, which are there, but easily controlled. DIY is going to my my summer project I think.

Yes, that is one reason I think I find the mixing part so simple. Algebra is definitely not a problem for me. I read the information and downloaded the calculator and I doubted it had to be that easy! lol

Yes, the flavoring seems to be the biggest issue in mixing, so I will read all that I can about that.

If you're going to do 80/20 PG/VG, I would recommend getting 250ml of PG, you'll go through that faster. Also, get some marshmallow, it rounds out your flavors and gives some depth.

I've decided when I start DIY, I'm going to stick with 50/50. Thus far I've enjoyed almost all juices I've had at 50/50, or close to it. Tho I also had an amazing Orange Creme at 100% VG. So who knows. I think DIY will make my life easier in that I like to mix up my nic levels as well. 24mg at work, 16-18mg on days off running around town, and 10-12mg when I am chain vaping at home.

Thanks for the blogs, they were very helpful. I saved them for easy access when I actually start doing this.

Yes, I was looking again at the amounts I should buy and realized if I am going to do this the amount of PG used are going to be quite a bit higher, and I can always buy VG locally when I need it.
