    Nail Polish and Ethyl Alcohol

    Clear nail polish will chip away when using ethyl alcohol to flush syringes. Fortunately, I discovered this quickly and only had to trash 2 mixes. Big duh moment. EA is a solvent.

    Wonderful ( but lost )google doc chart

    I can't even give credit to the genius that made the two tables that provide easy peasy percentages when making flavor samples. I killed my computer and can't find in a search.... Please help me. Please. ETA- I used <gasp> pencil and paper math, so no rush, but would like to have the charts. TIA

    Questions regarding the use of flavor enhancements

    I've been blending separately mixed flavors, and have found that I like fruits mixed with tobaccos and bakery type (cookie, cheesecake, chocolate) flavors. With straight fruits, I usually include about 1 drop per 5 ml of koolada, T & S, EM or Sucrolose or lemon juice. With tobaccos or bakery...

    I need advice about carto tank use with my DIY juice please

    I've been vaping since Feb 4-- using carto tanks soon after. I have been fortunate in that I've never had a DOA cart (that I know of). I use mostly Fusion and Platinum Punch but also Boge and Smoketech. My tanks are from IBTanked and I'm vaping on a ProVari Mini. The carts are standard...

    DIY milestone

    I just discovered the primary ingredient in one of my fave vendor's juice when I opened a bottle of Choc Fudge Brownie. It was an instant a-ha! Does this make me a "real" DIY'er?

    I think I can contribute!

    I made my first original (to me) mix today and it's good. I'm not great at breaking down all the flavor nuances, so I'll just say that it's a clean, fresh natural banana with a hint of rum. I made 10ml, ran it through 2 30-minute UC cycles and within an hour of tasting, I'd made a 30 ml batch...

    Mall Kiosk

    Remember when the first electronic cig kiosks opened? In my city, most appeared to be operated by middle east folks-- they'd blow vapor at you as you walked by talking canned sales speech. I never stopped because I wasn't ready. Last night, I saw another and stopped. It was being operated by...

    Why?

    I've attached a pict of juice I received today and the same that's two weeks old. The new juice has "sat still" for over 4 hours. I'm interested feedback re: the cloudiness. Coconut? Banana? It's Hawaii Sunrise. No complaints, just would like to understand so I may add to my DIY knowledge. Oh...

    Bucky's Bargin Basement won my loyalty

    I have a firm policy-- when I receive great customer service, I give public kudos. This policy both rewards the behavior AND builds credit in case I need to complain. :tongue: Today, I build a few credits. Upon opening my latest package from Bucky's Bargain Basement (Buckys Bargain Vaping...

    Spice/Herb Base Notes

    I bought a bottle of truth serum (no menthol). I know about the steep, but tasted it on atty upon arrival. There was a distinct cumin note. If you know cumin, you also know it has a unique flavor. I may be wrong about cumin specifically, but am curious as to how common is the addition of a base...

    Mixing Single Flavors

    How many of you mix up single flavors and combine as needed? Seems like a good place to start, but would love to hear from the mixologists. TIA

    Cumin?

    I just received some new juice and I could swear I taste some cumin notes! Unsteeped juice---Truth Serum. Not a total turn-off; just very interesting. Has anyone ever heard of using this spice? TIA

    Why is this juice so powerfully numbing

    I bought some all natural, 100% VG strawberry juice from my favorite vendor. I completely trust their product. I'm not writing to complain-- I emailed them and they immediately sent me a refund ticket. But, this is driving me crazy! The juice has extra flavor, but no other additives. I...

    can e-juice have numbing quality?

    I added some fresh all v/g strawberry to a tank of all v/g watermelon that I'd already been using with no problem. Not a lot. Now, it feels like the juice is producing a slightly numbing affect to my tongue and upper palate. Any ideas? Watermelon 12 mg and strawberry 6 mg if that's important. TIA

    801 IKV fusion cartomizer help

    In my mad rush to purchase punched cartos last week at IVK (at work, using my phone!), I accidentally bought some 801 mega punched carts as well as the 501s. I have a ProVari mini and a V2 start-up kit. Of course, carts fit neither. I'm debating as to purchasing adapters or another battery...

    Question re: atomizer

    I have a joye 510 atomizer that I've never used. I bought two when I bought my PV setup and ending up throwing the first out after a quickly aborted attempt. The burning taste freaked me out. I'd like to try again tonight. I *think* that it needs to be prepped (maybe a dry burn?) before I may...
