    Question Odysseus home made liquids

    Hello all!

    I was wondering if there are some "experts" on making the right liquid for Ody.

    Any advice on what products should I use in terms of VG, PG, flavors, nicotine, etc?

    What "offline" calculators are you using to make the perfect juice for Ody?

    All the best

    Ejuice is as individual as it gets....what you love I might hate and vice versa so there's no "right" formula. I'm not sure what "offline calculator" means, but I use Breaktru's Ejuicemeup. It's a fine program.

    I think that the same theory applies to any mod, atty, battery.............

    What I'm looking for is to avoid the worst experiences over there and to try the best ones. I see ppl saying that they lost flavor with rebuildables, etc, etc, so I was just looking for good experiences from Ody users with home made e-liquids

    About the offline calculator, there are several online calculators to know the % of nicotine, flavor, vg/pg, etc, in order to do a Xmg of nicotine with X% of VG/PG, etc. What I was looking for is for a calculator that don't need any internet connection or some other that ppl who make their own liquids use.

    Thanks!

    Breaktru's is the one you want.....google to get the link (Breaktru's EjuiceMeUp), download, install, and you're done. It comes with a nice collection of recipes as well. It's a great program

    Well, I've only used a couple rebuildables so far: the Bulli A2-T and Odysseus. I've got a couple more rebuildables on the way, though. From my experiences with both of those I've found that my DIY mixes have been nice flavorful vapes in them. I typically do about 16mg nic, 40-50% VG (occasionally all VG) and 15-20% flavor (depending on the particular flavoring used). I like the vape of 100% VG, but have found that sometimes I need to add more flavoring with those mixes and a roughly 50/50 mix of PG and VG gives me the optimum balance between flavor level and quality of vape (for my taste, anyway).
    I have some PEG-400, too, but haven't played with it enough yet to really say anything about it. Maybe I'll do up a batch of something with it later this week

    The biggest detriment to flavor IMHO is due to the particular coil and wick setup. Some setups just burn too hot for some juices. I'm still learning how best to build for optimum flavor, but it's been going well so far with most of my setups
    I was vaping on my Odysseus most of the day with a 1.2 ohm single coil setup, using .2 kanthal instead of the .15 nichrome that came with Ody, only two loose wraps with a doubled piece of wick inside. I was quite surprised that even a more delicate flavor came through nicely even at that low a resistance


    I don't know if any of that is the kind of info you were looking for

    I would post my thoughts, but for some reason Killjoy does exactly the same thing I do right down to the percentages. Thats really wild. Except for I do 6V on Ody, Iatty and Bulli A-2

    Mixing my own juice is one thing I have yet to try. Perhaps it is because I have trouble mixing hot water with instant oatmeal that has me hesitant!
