    Why Is It...?

    "My hypothesis on steeping isn't that the flavors actually change, rather with time, they merely are given time to spread out, so to speak. What I mean is; if you put 5% of flavoring into 30mls of base, it may taste more potent fresh than it would a week later. Why is that? Well, because the...

    Why Is It...?

    If you have TFA banana nut bread it is good! I really like the flavor. I'm going to increase the % a bit, I don't think I went too high. I am now venturing over to the Hangsen thread to get some education on tobacco flavors. I mixed 3 last night and am anxious for them to steep! While waiting...

    Why Is It...?

    Here are a couple of examples of what I have found... I mixed FW Cinnamon Roll at 13%. It was perfect right off for me. It was not a strong flavor but I don't like strong cinnamon and could really taste the roll. Now after a week I can still taste it but it seems a bit weaker. Nothing major but...

    Why Is It...?

    Would this be the case if it tasted good after mixed and then muted a week later?

    Why Is It...?

    ... some flavors get stronger as they steep and other flavors get weaker as they steep? Is there any logic to this? I am taking notes and will adjust my next mixes but just curious.

    A new hat - and some questions

    I posted the same thing yesterday. I have been looking at the Ikenvape cartos but never having used cartos before it's a bit confusing! There are so many to choose from and many are out of stock which are probably the ones I would prefer. I know I want the 35mm 40mm total and LR but what is all...

    I'm On A Mission, Who Can Help?

    I am currently making an offer on ebay for 2 spinners 1100 mah and 2 protank minis. We shall see. DIY is exciting and I love it! I would suggest you read all the sticky topics in that forum before you start, download a good calculator and start off slow. One flavor mixes until you see what %...

    I'm On A Mission, Who Can Help?

    I think ebay may be the way to go here. I didn't know if there were any sales from vendors out there that someone knew about. Since money is tight for them (recently lost job) I think I am going to just get him a couple of spinners and protanks. Not that I have much either but if it will get...

    I'm On A Mission, Who Can Help?

    I do use ebay too. Considering all options! Thanks for posting, I am afraid the 1300 mah might be too big but I will discuss it with him. I think it would be better but he has to use it.

    I'm On A Mission, Who Can Help?

    I am looking for the most inexpensive starter kit that has spinner batteries. Does this even exist? Here's the story... A couple of months ago, I gave my sister in law an Evod starter kit. She desperately needed to quit... has a vast of health isuues and hadn't been unable to give up smoking...

    How should I mix for my liking?

    Hi James and welcome! First you are not smoking blu, you are vaping. E-cigs are not smoking. ;) Vaping in general will dehydrate you. It is always suggested to drink plenty of fluids. Different mixes will not change this, it is part of it. I am new to DIY myself so I will wait to let the other...

    Where Do You Go?

    Just wow! This place is so huge! (ECF) How in the world can anyone visit all the forums and sub-forum? How do you choose? I have been here 3 months and have only been active in a few but a lot of my time is spent here. There are just not enough hours in the day! I am just curious about others...

    Who Can Help Me?

    Oh crap! This could be part of my problem..... I did look at the caps before filling. I originally thought the smaller o-rings went inside the cap for the cartomizer and put them there. When I put the cartomizer in, they fell out so I thought I was mistaken. $*%&! Is it possible they are...

    Who Can Help Me?

    Now I have one more dummy question... When I ordered my IBTanked, I got a spare tube. I was sent 4 o-rings along with this in 2 different sizes. I expected 2 but the different sizes kind of threw me a bit. Can someone tell me why? I am thinking perhaps if you use different caps it might be...

    Provari Newb here, can someone help me understand how to achieve this look with an IBTanked?

    Yes, the glass is sold seperately I just looked. I love the look of that tank but will wait until I have a bit more experience.

    Who Can Help Me?

    I am learning! I will soon be ordering Ikenvapes cartos (I got a couple of Smok with my tank). I have read many good things about them. Yep, busted! I do have a gap but the ring should be here today. I read it was needed after my order so I ordered it seperately. Thanks to all of you for...

    Enclosed Storage?

    I haven't done a lot of looking yet but I am going to have to soon. I know I don't want anything plastic. Wood would be best. I love the stands I have seen for tanks, tips, and PV's etc. I would just have to have something to put that in.

    Enclosed Storage?

    LOL Well it is enclosed! I want something maybe a third that size and not all the glass. With all the money I have spent on vape stuff, I really don't want to spend $300 on something to put it in either. I am limited on space too which makes it harder.
