    Where can I buy a clean tasting, or tasteless nicotine base?

    Ive tried steeping the flavored batch for a week without any noticeable difference, I am a bit confused as to whether or not that would be necessary on a mix without flavor though. The three test batches I made without flavor have now set for a couple weeks, I haven't tried those since I...

    Where can I buy a clean tasting, or tasteless nicotine base?

    Thanks for the tips. Anyone have opinions on nicotine from xtremevaping, CCV, or Onestopdiy?

    Where can I buy a clean tasting, or tasteless nicotine base?

    Ive recently dove into DIY mixing for the first time and Ive run into a problem. The nicotine base I'm using has a noticeable taste that is effecting the flavor of my mixes. At first I thought the taste might be the flavors I was using so did a few mixes without flavor and found that the...

    Guide to DIY Flavoring

    I'm pretty new to DIY mixing myself but I can tell you what Ive learned. Attys - Most mixers will tell you to use an atty and drip for testing flavors instead of a carto. This makes sense since you don't have to fill a cartomizer with a mix that might not taste good. One tip I learned...

    First experince with mixing, need help with flavor percentages.

    Thanks for the info, the other poster might have made a typo. I suppose I'll go with the TFA cotton candy then. :) Im still waiting on a response about my nicotine from the distributor to find out if the taste is normal. Ive vaped 24mg premixed many times without the odd flavor so Im...

    First experince with mixing, need help with flavor percentages.

    Great resource, If I knew about that before I would have gotten the double chocolate flavor instead. I suppose I'll have to probably cut this flavor with another but I'm thinking I can still salvage it. Thanks for the link, I love the detailed descriptions. :)

    First experince with mixing, need help with flavor percentages.

    About the Cotton Candy, Ive been hearing this recommended as a sweetener. One poster said they use Lorann's cotton candy, which is just ethyl maltol in PG. Would this be the same for Flavor Apprentice cotton candy? I am looking to get a good sweetener. Under TFA I saw something labeled...

    I've come up with another question :oops: Im going to test my chocolate tommorow after having let it steep for a few days, but Im thinking it will probably still need more flavor. I did bring my mix up from 10% flavor to 14% a few days ago but I never really asked if there is an easy way to...

    First experince with mixing, need help with flavor percentages.

    Thats ok, I'll just learn as I go. :) I did find out where the funny taste was coming from after vaping 26mg nic without flavor in three test. It seems to be the nicotine. The first test was 100PG / 26 mg PGnic (this was very harsh and unpleasent tasting) The second test was in a...

    Guide to DIY Flavoring

    Very helpful, thats the kind of info Im looking for. I may end up liking strong flavor mixes myself. Turns out I might not have much choice though. I just ran three seperate test on my nicotine and found that the nic Im using has an unpleasent taste without flavor. The first test was...

    Guide to DIY Flavoring

    Ahh, your right. I just shortened The Flavor Apprentice down to FA forgetting completely about FlavorArt. Thanks for the heads up, I'll correct it. :)

    First experince with mixing, need help with flavor percentages.

    Thanks for the info. Taste is indeed subjective but I guess what im looking for is an average base number to start with for each flavor. If for example a cinnamon flavor is best at 8 -18 % depending on taste and pg/vg ratio, id advertise that as a flavor that has about an 13% average. Then...

    Im looking for a good site to DIY my liquids, and also need advice with mixing

    Thanks for the link, I didn't see any percentages on the particular flavors I'm using from Flavor Apprentice but I did hear one poster say they use 20 - 25 % with FA flavors in general. I made a post in that forum to find out specifics on the flavors I'm using, plus I now have a forum under the...

    Guide to DIY Flavoring

    Someone recommended this thread to me from another forum, I read through most of it but haven't seen much on flavor percentages for Flavor Apprentice flavors. My first mix was with chocolate from FA, and it taste very weak. It's at about 14% flavor now, with 60pg/40vg, and 24mg of nicotine...

    First experince with mixing, need help with flavor percentages.

    Thanks for the tips so far, I think after it steeps another couple days I'll test it again. That will give it 5 days or so. If it's still not close I'll bring the flavor up from 14% to 17% or so. Then test again to see if I need more, I guess I'll probably stop adding flavor when I hit 20%...

    First experince with mixing, need help with flavor percentages.

    Since my first mix does not taste like I want, I thought Id direct my questions here and ask about all the flavors I have for when I go to mix them. All the flavors I have are Flavor Apprentice, with the exception of the MTS Vape wizard. The PG/VG and nicotine I have are from RTS vapes...

    Im looking for a good site to DIY my liquids, and also need advice with mixing

    No, you didn't imply anything about my cleaning procedure, :) I just mentioned it takes me a while to clean them because that probably reduces the contamination concern. I also don't leave the bottle open after the extraction very long at all, so I'm thinking at worse Im getting trace amounts...

    Im looking for a good site to DIY my liquids, and also need advice with mixing

    Hrm, is that intended to be a sweetener or a cotton candy flavoring? I do want sweeter, but I don't necessarily want a chocolate that taste like cotton candy. Any sweater that is known to be good at sweating without altering the flavor is something I'll grab in my next purchase.

    Im looking for a good site to DIY my liquids, and also need advice with mixing

    I never considered contamination, you should see the way I clean those pipettes and syringes though, it takes longer for me to do that than to actually mix lol. I don't think the accuracy issue with high Nic Vs. low nic bases would apply here though. Simply because if I make my own diluted nic...
