    Fridge steeping

    Cover the tops of the bottles with cheesecloth or similar -- no bugs can get in (not most of them, anyway), and the alcohol can still evaporate.

    List of vendors who re-label & sell eliquid made by someone else

    My point is the rebranding we're used to means high quality at lower prices -- store brand cereals, detergents, soap, spaghetti, etc. The company that makes Grocery Store Detergent is the same one that makes Tide or one of its name-brand competitors. This is equivalent to e-liquid vendors...

    International orders and steeping time (Any help, thoughts?)

    All I can say is... I envy you! My HHV order shipped on April 9th (almost immediately after I placed it -- kudos!), but since it's international I'm still waiting. Not HHV's fault, of course! But boy am I dying to get my juices!

    List of vendors who re-label & sell eliquid made by someone else

    I don't think so. Look at product rebranding in supermarkets -- your store brand of cereal/coffee/detergent/etc. is made by one of the big names in the industry but is relabeled with your grocery store's brand. The net result is you get a quality product cheaper because it's sold as a no-name...

    Making juice really sweet advice needed

    Did you try the table sweetener or an e-juice sweetener? I once naively tried the same sucralose drops I put in my coffee and they did nothing, because those are very watered down (sucralose is extremely potent -- if they didn't water it down, one drop would make a pitcher of coffee sweet)...

    Dekang Red Cow?

    To me it tastes almost exactly like the drink. There's maybe one flavor note it's missing, but that's probably the bitterness of the caffeine. And since caffeine can't be vaped, apparently, all our Red Bull, coffee and cappuccino juices are just going to have to be decaf.

    Remember that these things are very relative -- I believe I can taste and smell food normally, too, but I suspect that other people are WAY more sensitive than me, since I use about five times more spices than anyone I know. I've actually had people politely refuse to eat food I've made after a...

    Ego 650 Battery Life

    Your unit is dead if it dies like that after a full charge. The culprit is probably the electronics. FWIW, I'm a heavy vaper and I get half the time out of an eGo-style 650 mah battery that others report -- about 3 hours.

    In search of Mango

    I suspect you were vaping Dekang -- it seems to be the standard B&M no-name / store juice. So you could order some Dekang Mango somewhere and it may be exactly what you were already vaping. That was actually my very first e-juice, and I'm still fond of it! MBV's mango is delicious, but it's...

    You're not too terribly far from vaping flavoring with a bit of nicotine added to it! Yes, I exaggerate a bit, but my point is that your case is pretty extreme. Do you have allergies, or a spend a lot of time with a stuffy nose? I ask because most of what we think of as taste (everything except...

    You won't regret it! Along with 555, Red Apple and Teaberry are the MBV flavors that I just reordered. The rest of the order is stuff I've never tried. Come on, Mr. Postman...!

    Ahlusion - Yerba Mate

    "Amapola" is poppy in Spanish. Some varieties of this plant produce opium. Coke (the non drink) comes from the coca leaf. Yerba mate is ilex paraguariensis.

    Dekang juice, good or bad?

    Do we really know that? I mean, really know? I don't doubt there are many US producers who apply the highest standards possible given the facilities they have available, but as far as we know these facilities don't include airlocks, positive pressure rooms, etc. I'd bet the plant we saw...

    Thanks for the ideas! You're more daring than I have been, but that could easily change! In fact, I've been trying out MBV 555 mixed with MBV Red Apple (10:2) and it's delicious. I mean, really delicious. I'm still fiddling with the exact proportions, as the apple is a very intense flavor --...

    Dekang juice, good or bad?

    Damn. That's impressive as hell! I've been to dentists with far less hygienic conditions. And I'm willing to bet that that facility cost more than the annual profits of the top 25 US juice makers combined, meaning we're not likely to see anything like this for a long time to come. This has...

    Dekang juice, good or bad?

    I reviewed 14 Dekang liquids. They're perfectly fine, fair-to-middling e-juices. The fruit flavors are pleasant but weak. I love their mint and cinnamon. Their beverages are hit-or-miss. None are outstanding. But they provide very clean, light vapes. Let me give you an example. Last night, I...

    New VAMO, lots of questions...puh-lease help!

    To further protect the Vamo threads, would there be any point in using a bit of plumbers (teflon) tape on the Vamo-Adapter connection?
