Ive been reading like crazy in the DIY section, just wondering if there is some sort of comprehensive guide for beginners on the DIY juice stuff? Ive got a decent grip on this now after 3+ hours of reading, just wondering if there is some sort of all in one thread that has a bunch of info for beginners??

Second question is, where do you guys get your unflavored nic from? Im looking for 36mg juice unflavored.

OK 3 questions :) Where do you get your PG from as well as your VG?

Thanks a ton!! Great forum here!

As far as a thread for beginners, I don't know. I know there are some recipes posted that you can follow. I just mix my own and go by smell...if it smells good, then I try it...if it needs more of something, then I add more.

My liquids, I get from whoever has the best prices. Right now, these guys have a bogo sale, but I think their liquids only go up to 24 mg. I've been ordering PG nic liquid and I have bottles of plain VG (which you can get anywhere...online or at your local Walmart or pharmacy, just make sure the label says USP grade). I cut my PG nic down with plain VG, then add my flavors.

Thanks for the replies everyone! I went to the walmart by my house, they didnt have any VG or any of that LorAnn flavoring.

At least I didnt see any, where would you find this stuff at walmart??

Jim

Some have Lorann's, some don't. I found Lorann's by the crafts/wedding section right in front of the aisle in 2 packs. I found VG at Rite Aid in the medical section by the hydrogen peroxide on the top shelf.

Can I add loranns, to a bottle of juice I already have? I have a tobacco flavor Im not too fond of, and would like to flavor it up a bit...

Would this work?

It definetly would work. I add cherry or carmel to mine all the time, the amount would add would dilute the nic level but by so little you probably wouldnt even notice.

You can definitely get them from the manufacturer:
https://www.lorannoils.com/

Click the LORANN GOURMET section which reads "Candy Oils and Flavorings, Vanilla Extracts..."

LorAnn is based in Lansing, Michigan.

Here's a link to their PDF catalog:
https://www.lorannoils.com/skins/Skin_1/Docs/lorann_retail_2009_R3.pdf

The Dram size bottle is 3.7 ml.
Shipping on small orders is high, $8.50.

If you only want a few flavors, the total might be cheaper if you order from a place like Totally Wicked:
LorAnn Oils - the most trusted name in candy flavorings since 1962.

Use discount code T4BE699 for 7.5% off.

Totally Wicked is based in Bradenton, Florida.

if you plan on getting at least 6 flavors it is cheapest to order from loranns unless someone is having a sale..

as far as unflavored.. look through the list of suppliers on the main page and look for sales.. sometimes you can get some real cheap..

when it comes to mixing.. decide what strength you want the final product to be and order at least double that strength unflavored liquid will save you in cost and it is just easier to eyeball the mix so you do not have to sit and mess with drips or measuring.
