My first 2 bottles i made had bad perfumey taste/smell.
I overdid the tobacco a bit, and they say leave the top cap off overnight, and heat juice to evaporate that affect.

I never messed up another mix again. Always find the right % for the flavors you order .
Tobaccos' usually 5-7%
undertones like your vanilla...usually 2-4 %.

Did you go to site i linked for clone recipes?
if not here they are.
E-Liquid Recipes | DIY E-Juice | e cig Liquids

Here's a video i made on me mixing my eliquids.



Make a delicious RY4 first so you know you can do it.


10% double ry4
5% bavarian creme
5% caramel
1% EM (ethyl maltol)

that will get u going...then you can expand from there.....an easy 4 part recipe.....will come out awesome...
and you are using Ejuicemeup Calculator right?
Also try 30pg / 70 vg..... i mix at 40/60 myself.

let me know what happens k

I did look up the site, very informative thank you !
Isn't leaving the cap off called breathing ?
What about the stepping process, should I give it a hot bath ?

Cap off is called breathing.
If you watched my video, my stir plate does the steeping for me.......mixes juice up instead of waiting 2 weeks for
flavor molecules to blend.
And i heat it up before putting on stir plate so vg will mix easier with flavors...hope that helps.
I don't bother with taking cap off......anymore. Only if i get that perfumey smell, which hasn't happened since my very
first 2 diy bottles.

got mine on ebay.

the one i bought was for 42 bucks...but i see it's now 48 bucks (free shipping).

here's another one looks almost exactly like mine...lifetime warranty
Magnetic Stir Plate for Yeast Starter Better Than The Others Lifetime Warranty | eBay

and this is the one i got
Stir Starter Magnetic Stir Plate Homebrew Yeast Home Beer Brewing | eBay

they both would remove steeping time...so you can vape right away.

(max the cat thanks your for compliment) lol.

you'll want to go to wizardlabs and get:

100 ml beaker (for juice mixing like mine)
get glass funnel (mine came post diy video) hence that little bit of pg spill i had on video...won't happen to u !
and really that's it !

Digital scale would help......i would get this.
Amazon.com: ONE - My Weigh Triton T3 660g x 0.1g Digital Scale w/Rubber Case - TOUGH!: Digital Kitchen Scales: Kitchen & Dining

You won't need pipettes, syringes, none of that junk if u use the scale and beaker....ok.
you saw how fast it is.

If im in a hurry, i zap in microwave (30ml's) for 4 seconds or so.
If im not, i put into my bathroom sink (in beaker) for about 3 or 4 minutes, then it's good to go....er..(mix on stir plate) that is...

I did see how fast that was. It also looks as if my vape shop has the beakers and tools I need for next to nothing.

Would putting the bottle of liquid in hot water for awhile help ?

I just want to vape it hahah

I really wouldn't want to wait two weeks for the flavor to be nothing like I want it.

YOu need to heat the juice too to quicken the alcohol evaporation......but don't go over 120 degrees, otherwise nicotine will degrade.......

I get that when i use desert ship.......never had perfumey smell since i stopped using that.
make sure tobaco % is 5-7 unless an ry4 tobacco flavor where u can go up to 10%.

p.s

Try using only inawere flavors.......they are alot of diy'ers favorite company ...go to bullcity check it out.
