Hi guys ive just dived right into the world of DIY liquid after just a day of vaping.

I went to CVS and bought a bottle of VG (USP and all that jazz)

And it vapes nicely, lots of vapor but no throat hit or flavor.

Its not a breaking point to have no TH and little flavor but it would be nice now and then.


I looked into my pantry for flavorings and heres what i found.

Lemon Extract - Trying that out right now.
Almond Extract - Will try out in future.
Coconut Extract - Already tried it but it needs VG
Mouthwash - Menthol maybe?
Imitation Vanilla Extract - Not sure if this one is safe.
Maple Extract - Sounds good since Totallywickeds tobacco taste like maple syrup.

These are all food safe and contain PG,Water, and alcohol.

Im most interested in the mouthwash since i never could really get into menthol cigarettes because most of them tastes like a blend of tobacco and menthol and i would like a pure menthol.

Your best bet is to read the stickys up top for info on whats good to try and what is a bad idea. Most houshold extracts are too weak and/or contain undesirable ingrediants. If you read the Lorann flavoring sticky you can then then find a local hobby or baking store and pick up a few flavors that are deemed vapable and give it a go.

So the answers so far add up to (go figure it out yourself) though it is good advice, give the guy some info, links, something. The mouthwash wow, that to me is a bit out there would not have come up with mouthwash as something id like to vape(or would even try to vape). If i was you i would PM some of the more well known DIYers and ask for advice. And read, read, read than when you think you know read some more. Hope this helps man,stay safe first is the most important rule!

(Hoosier would be a good guy to pm)

Haven't some folks posted that lorann's is available at some Wal-Marts too?

Mouthwash... That doesn't sound too appealing. But you can get menthol crystals really cheap. I just got some from Best Electronic Cigarettes and E-Liquid - MyFreedomSmokes.com for I think 4 bucks? You could also get some flavorings here. You just dilute them (the menthol crystals) in PGA and add to your vg. I used 25% crystals and 75% pga, added about 1 drop per ml of juice. It is pure menthol, no tobacco flavors.

Good luck and keep posting any questions. :)
