    I just have a plastic box with some baby shoe boxes inside of it for organization. I'll try to remember to take a pic of it next time I take it out. It's amazing how everything fits in there - I'd guess I have at least 40 bottles of flavor, big bottles of nic, PG & VG, tons of syringes...

    My short DIY intro, and a couple of questions.

    I don't think it's necessary to steep or air your flavorings. I wouldn't pre-mix the nic with the PG/VG. You may find that some recipes are better with more PG or VG. You may want to mix a batch for a friend that's stronger. If you pre-mix it to 12 mg and add 15-20% flavoring, you'll end up...

    Best Vanilla flavoring?

    I second TFA Vanilla Swirl. It's an excellent mixer to add vanilla undertones. On its own, it's not a very strong vanilla flavor. I haven't had much luck with TFA French Vanilla. Bavarian Cream (TFA) is also a good mixer but in my experience it tastes chemically until it has a long steep, about...

    TFA Peach Advice needed

    My all-day vape is: 60/40 PG/VG 13% Peach 4% Vanilla Swirl 1% Lemon best after at least 1 week of steeping. All flavors are TFA, and I use just "Peach" not "Juicy Peach". The Peach flavor isn't a strong one, and honestly it doesn't taste much like a peach. More like a subdued jolly-rancher...

    The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

    I've only ever mixed it with Hawaii Punch. As a stand alone I would start at 10%. It's not a very strong flavor.

    I did my first DIY! + Questions about Proper Syringe use + Math

    To accurately fill a syringe, fill it slowly to avoid air bubbles and check the amount by inverting the syringe (so the numbers are right-side up) and reading it at eye level. If you have air spaces in the syringe, tap the bubbles up to the top, then carefully plunge out the air. This could...

    What's the usual ProVari price?

    It's always offered at that "sale" price. I'm not sure either why anyone would buy a used one for the same price. But pay attention to the extras that are included in the classified price, like maybe it comes with batteries, an extension cap, or a blue or green LED. The batteries and charger...

    leaky Vivi Nova

    I have several vivi novas, and I did get one that started to leak from the contact center pin area on the bottom. The other 8 or so I have have worked fine for months tho. Sorry I don't have a solution, I just kept the other pieces for spare parts and tossed the center part.

    Calling all minty flavor vapers

    That sounds good... vanilla swirl is my fave vanilla. What kind of sweetener are you using? sucralose?

    ego twist vs provari

    I have a handful of ego twists and they all found their way to the backup pile shortly after my Provari arrived. I can't say exactly what is better about the Provari but it's just so much more satisfying than the ego twist. Do yourself a favor and every time you want to buy a new ego-style...

    Long term nic storage solution (for me)

    Good idea, thanks for sharing! Your post reminded me of a Christmas gift I got last year... it was a pump thingy that would suck the air out of wine bottles so they would keep longer after being opened. The one I got as a gift only lasted a couple of days (it used batteries and it just died)...

    can vaping make a room smell as well?

    honey flavors smell absolutely awful... my husband was vaping it for a while and I told him he had to stop. He vapes a menthol that smells really sweet, not bad. I've been told that kona flavor I vape stinks. Nothing lingers for a long time, though. The worst was the honey but the smell was...

    looking for stainless steel or glass syringes

    Why not use glass pipettes instead of syringes? You don't really need to inject anything when making juice, so the syringe is kinda overkill. Glass pipettes are very accurate and not too expensive. You would also need a pipette pump. Search for them on amazon.

    Ultrasonic cleaners for atomizers

    I bought a cheap one from Amazon over the summer and it continues to work. Originally I hoped it clean my old stardusts, but it didn't work so well for that. It does work great on atomizers, vivi nova heads, anything that is more "open". My husband loves how clean it gets his glasses.

    So I'm contemplating the Provari

    I agree with everyone else. I also bought a blem and the pinpoint speck was well worth the $30 savings. I researched buying the accessories like batteries and chargers elsewhere, but Provape has decent prices and if you order batteries from another site, the amount you would pay in shipping...

    Rasberry flavoring

    I've heard about this before. It got me thinking... is there a beaver farm somewhere, housing hundreds of beavers and once a month or so they squeeze out their .... glands? Do beavers have any other use for food or leather or something? This technically makes any juice with these flavors...
