So I'm going to start to DIY my own juice. I want to know somewhere where I can get everything that I need. I want extract that has no chemicals in it or anything. Something clean. I don't want any diacetyl or acetoin ethanol or any of that. I want to find a reliable source with no chemcials or anything in the juice. Clean everything . Does anyone know any good websites?

Plenty of nic suppliers around. Nude Nicotine, Wizard Labs, Nicotine Labs, Nicotine River just to name a few. I've bought from Nude Nicotine and Wizard Labs, no issues with either product.

Amazon for supplies (bottles, syringes, pipettes, etc), VG and PG. They're available other places, but it's kinda a one stop shop for everything other than nic and flavors, IMO.

Capella flavors and The Flavorer's Apprentice (TFA) are pretty good. In particular, TFA is very clear on which flavors contain diacetyl or acetoin, and have a "DX" line of flavors formulated to be free of them.

BOOM!

I understand what you want and it's as simple as reading the description on reputable vender sites. Stick with reputable venders such as what's been previously mentioned and you'll be fine. Most importantly read as much as you can. A good place to start is right above this post. Lots of research is the key to successful DIY.

I'm glad you understand that Dan. I just read someone didn't want chemicals and the only way to do that is produce a true vacuum. Even outer space is full of chemicals.
If you're really concerned about what you're inhaling, consider trying unflavored.

I typically vape high VG liquid (≥80% VG). VG is kinda sweet all on its own, without any added flavoring. I typically keep a bottle or two of unflavored juice on hand because it works. If I mix a batch that just doesn't work at all, I can anyways throw in unflavored and vape it. For me, unflavored is quite pleasant by itself - just nic base, VG and enough PG to thin it out.

BOOM!

Northern NJ native , Coastal NC now.
Do all your shopping at "BullCityVapor" , they put a caution box around all the flavors that have known diketones. It's easy to choose flavorings that don't claim to have them .

Flavor Art is a great flavor company that prides itself on being diketone free (most) , Capella's V2 flavorings and TFA's DX flavorings are labeled diketone free.

I don't think there is a way to get around all chemicals but the ones many concern themselves with are the diketones .

As you can see below this is the Capella's page and you see the "caution boxes" .

If they didn't want "any chemicals or anything" all that would be left to vape is water. Oh wait H20 molecular chemistry formula for water. Oh where does it end. Hoosier sometimes you think to literally:)

Heh, yep. Great chemical oxygen. Too little and all mammals die. Too much and all mammals die. Chemicals everywhere and it's the portion that is critical which ties directly into mixing juice. (and life, but that's a different forum)

The least number of chemicals for juice is probably nicotine, glycerin, and H2O. Get the portions right and you have a good vape.

My brain says 3 is much greater than none.

I used to post the chemicals that constitute the flavor of a fresh blueberry. It's a shocking number of chemicals with difficult to pronounce names. I love fresh blueberries and marvel that the blueberry plant is such an amazing chemist.
