    How bad did I screw up (if at all)?

    Thanks for all the replies! I had a long work day, and couldn't check back. The reason for the high vanilla to fruit ratio, is because that's what suits her taste. She used to mix 1 part strawberry to 5 parts French Vanilla pre-made juice, so my first test I did 1% total layered Strawberry, and...

    How bad did I screw up (if at all)?

    On a recipe that I intended to use 6%TFA French Vanilla, I instead accidently used 6%Capella French Vanilla V2. Does anyone have any idea how similar in strength these two flavors are? I just left it to steep, instead of having my wife do a S&V test. It's for her. I intended to make the...

    Moving to sub-ohm - recommended recipe change?

    Very simple. by "6% nic", I'm sure the OP meant .6% nic. I have seen vape shops that sell their juices as % instead of mg/ml. 18mg/ml is the same as 1.8% nic. Most likely just a matter of a misplaced decimal point. when I switch from MTL to Sub-ohm vaping, I had already stepped my mtl nic level...

    My new labels.

    Those look better than 90% of the labels on Retail juices I've bought since 2014! Maybe one or two companies I've used can compete with your labels. I'm inspired!

    Suds in my NET Juices

    So, about a month and a half into the DIY NET craft, and I've noticed that when I mix my net's and shake them, a line of suds form a ring around the top. This ring of suds seems to be indestructible, lol. It's happened with the two tobacco's that I've heat extracted, as well as the small samples...

    Nic Base Storage: Freezer vs. Room Temp Experiment

    Interesting thread. Thanks for doing the experiment.:thumbs: Can someone answer this? Did I read somewhere that Nicotine Salt is supposed to be less susceptible to oxidation? Just wondering if I read that somewhere, or if I'm just nuts, lol.

    A couple questions, and.... Did I waste some money?

    So, I heat extracted some Peter Stokkebye 84 Turkish, and I took a sample of a RYO "red" blend that I have cold steeping since the 2nd. After tasting these two, I've observed that cigarette tobaccos are a lot sweeter than I anticipated, lol. I may have to get some single varietals to extract to...

    A couple questions, and.... Did I waste some money?

    @Str8vision, You're right. Looking thru the pipes and cigars website is enough to give one an anxiety attack! I have one quick question on filtering. Is one pass thru a 2.5 micron filter paper enough, or should I do two passes, or more? Setting up gravity filtering before bed or work, and then...

    A couple questions, and.... Did I waste some money?

    Yeah. Ejuice calculator said the 5ml bottle was $.07, lmao! Im probably going to strain and filter it on Tuesday when im off work. Maybe I'll even leave it filter while at work the next day or 2, so i can get some mixed and steeping.

    A couple questions, and.... Did I waste some money?

    So, after the heat extraction, I let it sit for a couple days, and pulled a sample today. I mixed a 5ml test batch, 6mg nic, 40/60 pg/vg, at 15% extract. Here's my observations: The extract was really dark, but I expected it to be because of how dark the RLP-6 is. The juice ended up darker...

    A couple questions, and.... Did I waste some money?

    The two things that keep me from doing heated ethanol extractions.... They don't sell everclear in PA, and as a recovering alcoholic, driving to another state for PGA seems counterintuitive to me, lol. Otherwise I'd be using it from a practicality standpoint.

    A couple questions, and.... Did I waste some money?

    OK, so on keep warm, the water around the jar measures 163.4ºF. How long to leave this sit is good? If I remove it before work tomorrow, it'll be on for 17hours, if I wait until after work it'll be like 32 hours. I did three tobaccos to start out. Two pipe blends and a RYO cig tobacco. I did...

    Digital scale question

    a 500gm scale can be had for the same price, so I'd go with that. Just my 2 cents...

    Digital scale question

    Maybe buy one with a higher max weight? I got a 500gm max weight scale for a little over $10 shipped from china. You need a higher max weight to account for the bottles, jars you're mixing in.

    A couple questions, and.... Did I waste some money?

    Now that I think of it, I should have put the heat extractions in on the 2nd. everything would have been steeping over a week now. I have about a week of e-juice left, so I should be ok. With this heat extract, each successive bottle I vape will get better as I go along, as I see it, and I'll be...

    A couple questions, and.... Did I waste some money?

    Thanks! Yes, the cold macerations I put in on the 2nd, are going to sit for AT LEAST 8 weeks. I just wanted to do the quick hot extractions to make some stuff in the interim. I don't want to buy any more liquid, or extracts, after I bought all these supplies.

    A couple questions, and.... Did I waste some money?

    I ordered my supplies when I was like 30 pages into the 45 some odd page cold maceration thread, and I ordered 10 micron paper in addition to the 2.5 micron stuff. Ironically the 10 micron stuff was twice the $$$! While the stuff was on the way, I started reading that many people were going...

    Flavors and Sweetener

    Thanks for all the replies. To start, I ordered Cap French Vanilla V2, TFA French Vanilla, FA Strawberry Juicy, and FA Black Cherry. I also wanted TFA Strawberry Ripe, but it was sold out.
