    All the reviews I have read (and my own limited use), all use FLV Pink guava at very low percentages. I have never seen anyone mention trying it at a higher % to see if they can get a truer guava taste out of it.:blink: CAP Sweet Guava seems to get a fair amount of love. I have bought some (to...

    Just an FYI; if you are referring to FLV Pink Guave, it has a distinct "grapefruit" note that dominates it. I don't get much actual guava from it. That said, it is still a tasty fruit concentrate, and worth considering. This is a link to one of @PJReid's comments about it. I agree with giving...

    That's true; but they also have a bigger footprint (12.2" x 12.2"). If you have the real estate to dedicate to them, they look pretty slick. If you need to put them away between mixing sessions, the cases will pack away more efficiently. Also, if you do have room to leave them out, I would make...

    So, in other words, you made: Dennism's Irish Cream 2% Irish Cream (FW) 4% Vanilla Bean Ice Cream (CAP) 1% Kentucky Bourbon (TFA) 1% Caramel (CAP) The only thing I would do right now is double up on the Irish Cream (for a total of 4%). 2% is rather low for that specific concentrate unless only...

    It might help if you could describe what you thought was lacking. Is it too thin? Is it not boozy enough? Is it not creamy enough? Is it too dry? Or ??? Also, it helps us to know what brand(s) of concentrates you are using (CAP, TFA, etc.), as well as how long you have let this steep (VBIC does...

    @NolaMel, I would suggest an alphanumeric system. For instance, with a nail polish case; I would assign a number to each box, assign a letter to each row (front to back; repeating for each box), and again assign a number to each compartment. So, if had CAP Vanilla Custard in my third box, in the...

    You are far from the first person to think that way. That is why ECF encourages nic discussions to be in terms of "mg/mL" (vs. percentage); precisely to avoid that very same confusion. I wish vendors/mfgs. would do the same. :D

    Pure nicotine is 1,000 mg/mL. 1% of 1,000mg/mL is 10mg/mL... regardless of what other ingredients are present. Sometimes one will see it stated as "X% to volume." The "1%" is in reference to its pure state, and not a reference to the actual concentrate used (such a 100mg/mL concentrate...

    Newbie vaper puzzled by outrageously nasty taste

    Hi and welcome to ECF! :D This is all only my opinion; so don't take it as more than that. :) But... PG can feel like a harsher (more irritating sensation to mouth, throat, and/or lungs) vape. But, for most folks, does not "taste" bad in and of itself. I don't think that is your issue. VG is...

    :thumbs: Perhaps give yourself an extra cell/column/row for notes. Room for current perceptions, possible future changes, what you do and don't like, can all be helpful later on. :) I personally would do as @Letitia suggested, and use review and recipe sites: like All The Flavors (ATF)...

    @Alex_AMB, magnafication works for my blind old eyes:lol:: Note the faint decimal point. (enlarged from photo #1) 1% nicotine = 10mg/mL. :D

    DIY Help - Fruity mixes

    I think(?) OP subbed TFA Peach, and FW Kiwi, for the FA called for in the screen shot. At least, that is what I interpreted, based on the OP's list of available ingredients in their first post. While still "higher" percentages; I don't see them being in the "muting" range. Just my opinion... :)...

    I gave up on trying to categorize my stash, and went to a plain alphanumeric locator system. Now, as I get new flavors; they go to the next open slot, and the location is notated in my e-liquid calculator. When I mix, my location is displayed (box, row, and space), and I know exactly where to...

    If you don't want to wait for sales; check out Heartland Vapes... they are routinely some of the least expensive I have found (@ $45/L, 100mg/mL). I find their basic nic to be clear, flavorless, and perfectly suitable for my vaping needs. They also offer nic salts too. If you want to try a...

    For really potent concentrates; consider making a dilution. Take 1mL of the concentrate (like the WS-23), and add 9mL of PG (creating a 10% dilution). Shake thoroughly. Now, you use it just like the undiluted, only ten times the amount. This is particularly helpful when you need small...
