    Bottle Caps for Freezing Nic

    Those syringe type caps do not seal all that well, despite the fact that they are widely used in medical settings. I would recommend you replace them with solid caps that have PTFE liners, then also after capping tightly wrap the outside edge heavily with plumbers tape which is also simply...

    Hangsen Turkish Blend First DIY

    I posted this in the Hangsen thread but I find Hangsen Turkish to be too weak in terms of Turkish. Try this blend instead for stronger Turkish flavor: 3-4% TobaccoExpress Turkish Flavor (from ECigExpress) 2-3% Hangsen Turkish Flavor

    Hangsen recipes

    Most Hangsen Tobaccos I have tried are good but all pretty similar and sort of weak tobacco. The T5 seems to be one of the stronger ones but it tastes a little estery to me. The other issue I have with Hangsen is a lot of them seem to develop and increasing noticeable vanilla note over time...

    Robert's US Standard Turkish Domestic Blend 188

    Robert's Standard Turkish Domestic Blend 188 Long time no post. Lost my job, lost my house, lost my girl, did not have a dog, living in a fleabag hotel. Wanted to post something suitably lackluster. ;-) Actually this is a pretty decent variant of a standard US Turkish Domestic Blend...

    Flavor/Fruit Express

    OK I found list and after looking at it again I may be somewhat less certain, but every where I search on web for things like "Haorizi" and "Baisha" etc all roads seem to eventually lead back to DeKang...??? Notice about Dekang Eliquid Flavor Label Names Change / Best Selling E-Liquid With...

    Flavor/Fruit Express

    Unfortunately I have also been unable to find a source for Dekang flavors. What I did definitely find (and I will look to see if I bookmarked it on my PC - on phone now - was some sort of "manifesto" issued that stated Dekang was renaming flavors due to complaints over trademarks and it had a...

    Flavor/Fruit Express

    Signature Line is if fact mostly if not all rebranded TFA. Based on my research at least some of the Tobacco/Fruit Express line are rebranded Dekang.

    Flavor/Fruit Express

    Many if not all are rebranded Dekang or at least the tobaccos are. I wanted a couple in bulk but cannot seem to find a more direct source ....

    I also like FA Virginia, and often use it as a "primary" at 3-5% tobacco flavor. Dark Vapure and Latakia are also FA flavors I add in small amounts as an enhancer - 1% to some other tobacco. Have not found anything else I like in the FA line - Shade, Burley, Desert Ship, Cowboy, not much use...

    Yeah thanks to Leothwyn who originally recommended the T5 to me :)

    VaporKings Rock!!!

    I have always ordered hardware from these guys: Tulsa Electronic Cigarettes | Batteries, atomizers, cartomizers, e-Liquid and more! Recently switched to a new battery type and placed a different order, but also ordered a charger for my old battery type. A service rep tried to phone me and...

    Tobacco - recommendations for a crisp/clean tobacco flavour

    Hangsen T5 is a decent fairly strong "tobacco" flavor that does not have any weird aftertastes etc. I find the Hangsen RY1 kinda sweet and bland ...

    I use FlavourArt Seven Leaves quite a bit but found that as a "primary" it has a rather acrid flavor, hard to describe. Tobacco but too sharp. It is very good added at e.g. 1% as a booster to other "primary" tobacco flavors. Given the latest developments on the Tobacco Absolute market what...

    What constitutes "a drop" in the recipes?

    I post small batch recipes in drops - I consider a drop as a free falling drop rolled off a typical 10 mL plastic flavor bottle. If you are using a calculator that assumes "20 drops/mL" I would seriously reconsider the whole unreliability of drops issue lol. I have measure quite a few flavors...

    DIY Master Techniques - Flavor Add-on's (EM, VW, BW, MTS, ACV, ect)

    I recently performed a very controlled test on ACV versus no ACV. What I have found is: 1) The initial flavor of a tobacco mix with ACV seems better. The overall flavor was smoother and the taste seemed to be enhanced. 2) After a few days aging the mix with ACV changes very little, perhaps...

    Replacement for Tobacco Absolute?

    Nothing like being under 14 without a worker permit, hungover, on the back of a wagon, smoking a Marlboro, some guy shouting at you, having wet tobacco leaves slapping you in the face every time you lean over to puke, and then grabbing that bottom leaf that has the big fat juicy worm on it at 7...

    What scale are you using to mix by weight?

    100 mg? 200 mg? What exactly do you mean? I will not turn this into a "which way is better thread" (but I will comment that you already put it in red - the caps, well let's not get carried away, lol) I can tell you in no uncertain terms that as far as anything remotely affordable what you...

    Replacement for Tobacco Absolute?

    I believe the true good old school TA we love (.... that killed Elvis) is a thing of the past primarily in response to paranoia - virtually the only thing that was widely sold and NOT FDA approved :(

    DIY Master Techniques - Flavor Add-on's (EM, VW, BW, MTS, ACV, ect)

    I also highly recommend FA Fresh Cream if you are going for cream mainly. It is less vanilla and less prone to become sharp than TFA Sweet Cream, and my fav cream overall. But it does not add the sweetness of TFA SC either if you are looking to sweeten also. I often blend FA Fresh Cream...

    Best vendors for DIY liquid?

    If you are looking for a huge selection of flavors from a one stop shop and don't mind a little markup ECigExpress is a great place to start. Paying a little more but only needing a single place may be offset by multiple shipping costs of multiple vendor orders anyway.
