    Ml and grams the same?

    I have weighed all of the ingredients I use most frequently, and have the weights in my notes, because I'm kind of a nut like that, plus, I enjoy math, and figuring stuff out. Most of my PG based flavors weigh anywhere between 1.03g and 1.06g per ml. Flavors that have VG content, like some of...

    I'm back people!

    Squonking...even better than dripping. At least it is for me. It has all the advantages of dripping, but more convenient. But, to each their own.

    Good job! Give yourself a couple pats on the back. You deserve it. But, it's good to see you still sticking around in the forums.

    There may be a small release before then, in a couple weeks. But the regular stocking will happen in 2-3 months.

    I was talking to Rob this morning about some other stuff. The subject of P67s came up, and he did say that in a couple months, hopefully, the P67s will be regularly stocked on the site, just like Grands are.

    I keep it pretty simple. But I do like math, and enjoy calculating stuff myself. I make about 250ml of base at a time. My base is 8mg/ml 80VG/20PG. I know that it weighs 1.194g per ml. I've also weighed many of the flavors I use frequently. As an example: suppose I wanted to make 30 ml of Blue...

    I'm glad you posted this. The last time I looked in the juice calculator section of Steam Engine, there was no option for weights. I checked it with some of my own weights for my ingredients in my notes, and it's pretty close.

    Mixing my own juice got so much easier for me, once I started mixing by weight, that I kick myself for not going to it sooner. When I started mixing, about 5 1/2 years ago, nobody that I knew mixed by weight. Using syringes, graduated cylinders, etc. was the way everyone I knew was doing it; so...

    First World Moral Dilemma

    Good for you! You'll live without them. Meanwhile, as has been said, keep working on your DIY. Before you know it, you'll have an ADV that you make yourself.

    I was allowed in the living room to watch the Super Bowl on Mrs Rule's big tv. Great finish, even though I was rooting for the 'Birds'. Lady Gaga was awesome; as were the Hooters' wings Mrs Rule picked up before the game.

    Sounds exactly like life in my house. The big, 60",$2000,Smart TV is in the living room, with 3 or 4 remotes, and I don't even know how to turn the thing on. I have my office/den, with my TV, computer, iPad, and Xbox. The dogs seem to migrate between the two places, from time to time. As for Mrs...

    Yay! You got your first one under your belt. Now you're a pro 'weight mixer'. Easy, huh?

    What scale to buy on Amazon

    I agree. I would go for one that has at least 500g capacity.

    What scale to buy on Amazon

    The important thing is to get one that's accurate to .01g This is the one I, and many others have. AWS LB-501

    I agree about the Sunbox bottles. Some folks rave about them. But with about 14 squonkers, and at $28 per bottle, it's more than I'm willing to invest in squonk bottles. The $6 REO bottles is fine, if I can make them work. I do like the soft squonk. It's just that, as an old career pipefitter...

    I have one in my Li'l Pinch, and so far, I like it in there. But the nipple on the Pinch is a little smaller diameter. So, the tube goes on easier. I like filling by pulling the tube, so that I can pinch the tube better, to squeeze seal the bottle. But getting the tube back on the REO nipple is...

    Just got some of the soft bottles, to start converting my REOs to them. First day with them. I'm still undecided whether I'm going to like them or not. Question for those who are using them: are you pulling the tube off the nipple in the mod to fill them? Or are you just unscrewing the cap...

    I've thought about cutting the cable; but I guess I've decided that it's a luxury that I enjoy, and can afford, at this point. I have my favorite network shows that I like to watch weekly, although I do have some conflicts, and have to record, especially Thursday nights; Grey's, Scandal, How to...

    Mrs Rule has had Netflix on the living room tv for years. But I rarely watch that tv. I'm usually in my den/office, and had no device to access it, unless I wanted to watch tv on my phone or iPad, which I don't. But when I got the Xbox for Christmas, I can now get all that stuff: Netflix, Amazon...

    We also have Amazon Prime, so I've looked around on Amazon Video. Not as much on there as Netflix. But it's newer. Maybe Amazon will improve and offer more stuff in the future.
