    Thinning VG with NO Additives/Water/Vodka

    It's going to be tough! Even in lab conditions, keeping anhydrous glycerin free of moisture is a major challenge. If a factory-sealed bottle is stored for a year or more, it's likely to have sucked in some water, as if it simply will not be denied. It's one of those properties that makes it a...

    Thinning VG with NO Additives/Water/Vodka

    I think you might be surprised at the amount of moisture glycerin can absorb: many times its starting volume, limited only by the relative humidity, which dictates the point of equilibrium. Here in my part of the world, where the average annual humidity is about 70%, exposed pure glycerin will...

    Thinning VG with NO Additives/Water/Vodka

    How dirty it would look would depend on conditions, but it could certainly absorb enough humidity to reduce the VG concentration down to 85% or less. Since PG is almost 50 times more viscous than water, I'd think even a 95/5 VG to water mix could seem as thin as 60VG/40PG, and probably thinner.

    Thinning VG with NO Additives/Water/Vodka

    Absolutely right! The glycerol molecule is C3H8O3. It's very stable, and won't "separate by weight" in a centrifuge, or change its viscosity when mixed in a high-speed blender. It is, however, hygroscopic. On exposure, VG will easily absorb moisture from the relative humidity in air. So, if a...

    Hell, I'm too old to have been warped by that newfangled stuff. My fragile little mind was blasted with the trusty-dusty "word problem" math tortures of the early '70s. By nuns, no less. I still have nightmares. :D

    Unknown e-liquid Vapeabox

    Interestingly, "Toffee Dream Cream" is a widely-used flavoring concentrate from Flavor West. Similarly, "Colonel Custard" is a popular e-liquid from T-Vapes in the UK, and they sell the flavor concentrate as well. Since you can't find these "premium brands" online, I think it's a good bet that...

    Mtn dew

    Happy to refer you to Bull City Vapor, who will probably be your new flavoring source from now on. You can get the TFA (notice it's been renamed; this should be the same thing you got from MFS) or the FW version there: Citrus Punch-TFA Dew Soda-FW

    If Ohm's Vapes juices are as great as their order fulfillment...

    I think what's going on is this: Back when you had to ask for the boost, they were adding extra flavor at 5% of total volume. For example, if their standard level of flavorings were 15% of the mix, they made it 20% for you. Now that you're ordering the boost, they're increasing the AMOUNT of...

    Vape wild or slims ejuice for better e liqiud?

    I've tried and liked them both! I'll give Slim's a slight edge because I enjoyed a higher percentage of my tryout flavors, and with NO steeping. To be perfectly fair, I never tried any un-steeped Vape Wild. While I really liked many VW flavors, and gave them more business than I did with Slim's...

    Mount Baker Vapor Shots

    From what I've read--merely a rumor as I gather they won't confirm it, understandably--MBV uses mostly Flavor West as their concentrate source. The difference may lie there. MBV also offers up to 5 flavor shots, which is 40% flavoring by volume. I consider that way too much. But you've also got...

    Mount Baker Vapor Shots

    From what I understand, MBV starts at 15% flavoring, then adds 5% per shot. 3 shots gets you 30%. If you don't like it, order some unflavored in your nic and ratio, then mix it back down a bit.

    Start mixing own juice?

    Like @ddirtyvapes, I'm mostly familiar with the FW and INW flavoring. I prefer INW for fruit flavors, since they have good staying power and are more concentrated so you use less (try 3-4% for single-flavor mixes). That said, FW has a very good blueberry (5-7% single mixer). You'll probably want...

    Start mixing own juice?

    There, or perhaps the grocery store. Here in the USA, grocery stores sell it by the gallon, usually right next to the big bottles of drinking water. It's useful for cleaning out coffee pots without leaving mineral deposits. Since you'll be using only drop-level amounts, I'd think filtered...

    Hi hi, my first successful DIY e-juice ! Just so excited !

    Oil-based flavorings are dangerous for vaping. You might see if some small batch oil-free flavor concentrates are available for baking and home candy-making...

    Start mixing own juice?

    I'm going to say yes, with the disclaimers that I usually vape my liquids a bit thinner in stock tanks, and I haven't tried the TFV4. It's a very modern sub-ohm tank though, so I'd bet it's designed to handle the thick stuff. I've run 80VG in much lesser tank gear without trouble. If it doesn't...

    First time diy mix??

    Plenty of fun ahead, then! Mix up a little batch of unflavored while you're waiting, for the practice. It's also useful for diluting, when you're trying new flavors and they come out a little strong for your taste. One last tip: be sure to wash those storage bottles beforehand. If you've bought...
