    Bad Nicotine? Horribly Bitter Beer Face!!!

    Normally I would have surely noticed the half empty 30ml bottles I always mix. In this case I was using a bunch of smaller 15ml bottles since I was playing around w/a bunch of new flavors and I guess I just didn't catch it since I knew I was mixing small test batches. I typically enter the...

    Bad Nicotine? Horribly Bitter Beer Face!!!

    Me too! Thinking about the whole thing really is kind of funny. No one was injured and I have yet another piece of hard earned wisdom. You can't even begin to imagine how much wisdom I have:thumb:. Charles

    Bad Nicotine? Horribly Bitter Beer Face!!!

    Fresh report from the village idiot. I just cleaned and put a new build in a Speed Revolution clone dripper. I mixed a 15ml test batch of a DIY Peach Custard @36mg/ml. The ELR calculator says it's 81/19 VG/PG. Shake and vape. Tastes like it has forever. Nice peachy custard goodness. At this...

    Bad Nicotine? Horribly Bitter Beer Face!!!

    I checked it. It's sweet enough to pass for syrup on pancakes in a pinch. The more I think about it the more I'm convinced I got a touch of something bitter on the atty and/or coil or just REALLY screwed up the mix. To be honest, it wasn't exactly a laboratory quality mixing session. I was kind...

    Bad Nicotine? Horribly Bitter Beer Face!!!

    Some kind of contamination on my end is the what I'm beginning to think. The odds that a liter that's been in storage and in use for almost two years w/no complaint AND a new unopened liter of the same nic both just "going bad" over night seem pretty unlikely. I handle all types of chemicals...

    Bad Nicotine? Horribly Bitter Beer Face!!!

    That's actually an excellent (maybe the only) way to absolutely confirm the nic is the issue. It would only take a couple of minutes to make a batch of 36mg unflavored. Thanks for the idea. Charles

    Bad Nicotine? Horribly Bitter Beer Face!!!

    When I first started DIY mixing, I bought my nicotine and flavors from Heartland Vapes. I initially just bought 120ml bottles of 100mg/ml VG nicotine. I got lucky and my first mixes became my ADV for several years. A couple years ago, I bought a liter of HV 100mg/ml VG nic. All was well...

    Sweeteners

    I made a blueberry muffin DIY the other day and for a make it up as you go, it was very good. There was however, a bit of sweetness missing. Not having a dedicated sweetener, I tried a tiny bit of cotton candy, but it was still lacking. After reading this, I used a tiny sprinkle of Splenda...

    One Drop Flavors (brand) review amd discussion

    I didn't have a particular complete recipe in mind so I decided to add a few drops of One Drop Flavors to a batch of Purilum Sweet Tobacco/Pistachio. It was rather bland to my taste so I thought it would be a good starting place. I started with 8 drops of chocolate. Smells good , but didn't...
