    Lemon Tea trashing coils?

    I mix my fave 'green apple-white grape' with no sweetener at all in it and it will gunk up coils in a couple days. I switched to Vaporesso ceramic coils so I can clean them more than once, and when Kanger changed their old dual coil design to their new "you can't rebuild them easy anymore"...

    Does longer steep = less flavouring ?

    I've found larger mixes are harder (take longer) to completely mix well. Operative word is 'well'. I spin mine on a magmixer and the taste is very consistent between large and small, and you can visually see the larger amounts not mix as fast as smaller amounts. I overkill my spinning and spin...

    How bad is air for my diy?

    Most juice mfgs limit the shelf life to 1 year, probably for the lawyers. Yet, we can freeze nic for up to 4 or 5? Everything oxidizes eventually, and without any bacteria present, should not go bad. PG is used as a preservative in the food industry. If you are real worried about long term...

    DIY Fruity Tips and Tricks

    I like to add Sour and a "sweet flavor" like strawberry, tangerine, or grape, etc instead of sweeteners. Imo, all sweeteners wreck more than they help, yuk. CAP fruits are a bit less picky to deal with over TFA. I find TFA, although really good, tougher to get right and has longer steep times. A...

    Do you need a magnetic mixer?

    I agree about not buying one. I made one, it works great, best mix you can get imo.

    steeping alcohol out of ejuice

    I would let it steep before you air it out. The alcohol will help mix everything together. Then evaporate it out.

    Where are my fruits?

    Up to 1%. Over that it gets too "candy".

    Removal of sugars from fruit extracts?

    Alcohol distills at a lower temp than water, 187-189 degrees or somewhere around there. Wouldn't the sugars tend to want to stay in the water? Infuse the alcohol with the flavoids in it into pg. Evaporate or redistill the alcohol out, you can recycle the alcohol if you redistill it. Hopefully...

    Where are my fruits?

    A touch of Sour will bring the fruits out a bit more than a "sweet" will. I'll never use EM again. I like CAP over TFA for fruits. Their Sweet Strawberry is very good. I use it and Sour to replace the EM in recipes. Even though you can pretty much shake 'n' vape fruits, a week or two steep will...

    Inawera- a few reviews

    I just got their Grape E-Aromat. My first INA purchase. A little more concentrated than most flavorings, took me by surprise on the first 5 ml taster mix, a bit overpowering. After some fiddling, a very nice white/red grape taste. Awesome, all grape without the purple. Really kicked up a green...

    Removal of sugars from fruit extracts?

    What about Malic Acid? Would that do the stabilization thingy that you are looking for and not mess with your asthma? Its sold as TFA Sour (20%) or Super Sour (40%).

    Fastest way to steep?

    Whats wrong with making enough at first to cover initial steeping time? After that, its just normal. If its good after a shake n vape, wait till you taste it in a month.

    INA white grape flavor

    Yes, looks like a Polish import, but it says by Inawera, and nothing else. Its the only White Grape flavoring I've seen. Should get it pretty soon. I stuffed it in a big order going out, just because I guess.

    INA white grape flavor

    Anyone mixed with Inawera White Grape Flavor? Just wondering about any results. I like the grape flavors, but they are all too "concordy". I'm hoping that the white grape flavor will actually taste like a white grape.

    Wet Paper Taste

    Capella's flavors do change over time. I would give it two to three weeks steep before I would give it the definitive heave ho. Their ( cap ) Green Apple has a weird almost chemical taste at first, then it tastes just like its supposed to after a few weeks. Another flavor that has a "peary"...

    Mixing techniques (Tips & Tricks)

    The theory is sound. Danny is spot on. I stumbled on it by accident, actually. I spin my juice in a magmixer overnight, and ... darn it ... forgot to add the Cherry. Best mix ever. Now all my notes go in in the AM, and when I get back from work, its done. 24 hr spin. I do fruits, so as far as...

    Preparing for Regulations?

    I'd distill my own flavors (fruits). Nic stores well in the really cold place. I will not comply. I see it way out there like this ... Since we don't partake in their nannyspeak, that upsets them. By doing this, they instantly make a huge black market for the stuff, and we have been made...

    Refreezing Nicotine

    Um, it does not freeze. It just gets really cold. The cold just slows down the oxidation rate per oxygen available. If anything, it can't be any worse than NORMAL. No worries. Go about your day.

    Sour?

    I use TFA Sour for fruits over sweeteners. I have experimented with it for about a year now. Its a go-to flavoring on the bench. All the sweeteners are yuk to me, so I tried the sour and never looked back. It brings out the fruits without the yukky sweeteners. Start it at 1% and go from there...
