    Mixing By Weight: Basics 101

    I just went back to look at something on the first page and it seems all the photo's from the OP are no longer being hosted. Photobucket wants me to pay to upgrade my package if I want to have my pictures show up again. To say the least I am not happy, and I will not be extorted. I will have...

    Mixing By Weight: Basics 101

    Welcome guys. Im quite certain that you will find the weigh much easier than messing around with graded cylinders and syringes (let them stay lost Stols). There are a lot of helpful folks that follow this thread and I see many of them have piped in to help out with your questions. If you have...

    Best mixed berry?

    Berry Berry good indeed! I actually like it fresh myself. I'm not sure I like it better than aged up a week or so but I think fresh is just as good as the aged. It is definitely a different, brighter flavor when it is fresh and then deeper and more complex as it ages. I never mix up to big a...

    Nic has oxidized

    Some Nic. is pink right from the factory, some take it on with a little time. I don't worry about light pink and have not noticed a flavor difference. Yellow to brown, now that's a different story.

    Amending Flavoring Techniques...

    When I'm tasting juice I take my partial out. It defiantly mutes/changes flavors. Unfortunately it does the same for me with food. Also unfortunate is that I can't take them out to eat. Food has become much more boring.

    Best mixed berry?

    My Pleasure :) I kind of developed this one on line here in, I think it was, the TFA thread so I'm glad people are enjoying it. It has been my all day vape for quite some time. And, it is very versitile. I played around for a long time with different flavors and percentages to arrive at what...

    Mixing By Weight: Basics 101

    That's like two drops, literally. If I'm adding 100g of something to a recipe and I find I have added two extra drops, I'm certainly not going to worry about it. It is still a hell of a lot more accurate than trying to deal with a meniscus and residual weight etc. in the graded stuff.

    Need to mix some juice, scales broke!

    You don't have to suck VG up a pipette. Measure your Nic., PG, and flavor if your using any with the pipette and then top off your 30ml bottle with VG. Easy Peesy. Not real accurate but it will work. You can warm your nic. up in a cup of hot water before using to help out but you are only...

    The Innokin iTaste VV V3 owners group

    They wedged the 75 in to the exact same iodized aluminum box as the 40. It is very small and light. I'm pretty sure it is the smallest package you will find with the DNA 75 or 60 (smaller and lighter than the Pico). And, in my opinion, the build and performance of the pico does not come close...

    The Innokin iTaste VV V3 owners group

    Yea, I've gone box myself. I picked up a few S-Body micros which are the smallest lightest 18650 available that had a DNA board. I top it with a super light titanium Achilles for a very light rig. Unfortunately they are discontinued. A few still may be able to be found left over out there...

    PG/VG durability

    I don't know when you had this happen to you but I have juices that are well over a year old and are still fine with no sour or acidic taste. These are predominately VG juices. As far as two years go with PG, I believe that 2 years is as long as the certification last and there fore what they...

    PG/VG durability

    Yea, before I figured out what I was doing a little bit, I left a fairly large bottle of Nic. out in an un-airconditioned area for a few months in the summer and it turned dark, peppery and gross. Liquid Nic. is indeed a bit fragile,

    Menthol flavours?

    Honestly, I couldn't tell you personally because I'm not a menthol vaper but she likes it up there. I use FW menthol.

    Menthol flavours?

    I think FW regular Blueberry is one of the best in the business. I make a Menthol blue for a friend who really enjoys it. 12% Blue and ~4% menth. EDIT: Sweetener to taste (1-3% 'ish)

    Mix #1

    Congrats on your first success. It really isn't that difficult. It can get a little more complicated as you start to expand but it's not rocket surgery. If you have a science background, you might find mixing by weight a lot more comfortable. I have a link stickied up top here on weight...

    Nicotine Comparisons

    Well, I'm just going to weigh in with a dissenting opinion. I have tried unflavored a couple of times and found it completely disappointing. It has very little taste and what little taste I do get out of it is a mild dirty tobacco taste. With all the fantastic flavors available to me for...

    Nicotine Comparisons

    Pharmaceutical Nic. was available to the general public pre-07.
