Wizard labs for nic and VG bases...best prices usually etc. (and myfreedomsmokes when on sale) for nicotine bases. RTS vapes often has sales on VG or PG etc.

For DIY flavor extracts, if you're into tobaccos, would be from naturally-extracted-tobacco.com

Vapingzones super concentrated alcohol based flavors, Nature'sFlavoursOrganics (from highdessertvapes and ecigexpress) and some FlavourArt flavors from them as well. Those because there's no PG in them and therefore my favorites. I only need from 2 to 5% in my DIY e-liquids, but that's just me as I've heard many people like 20%!

There are some nice flavors that are PG based from TPA/TFA but I can only use them at less than or up to 1% (which is actually a good thing as far as not having to re-buy very often since they'll last me a few years lol.) Lot's of vendors carry those, just watch for sales.

If you're into WTA for DIY, it would have to be wholecig.com for pricing and best "taste" of the "unflavored 100%VG" (without PG added).

Good luck:)

Rts and mtbakervapor i learned coffee flavors absolutely need to be mixed js and mtbaker flavors are stronger imo than rts but i love variety of rts

Have you tried making your own coffee extract yet? Its pretty easy and you can make it to your own liking. try this method.

fill 1/2 of a 30ml bottle (glass preferably) with coffee, top off with PG
Microwave 10 seconds (only 10 no more)
top off again with PG
Hot water Bath 20 mins
Strain it with a coffee filter ( use a funnel with a paper cone its a little easier)
Or if you have a good syringe you can try this before i do, cotton in the tip and press with the syringe.. Either way You get some great flavor with it.:toast:cheers mate

Thanks and you're welcome:)
Ive heard a lot about capellas, anyone have any experience with them?
Ive used Lor Anns, TFA and PA... Some are great some are off base and terrible... Its weird that there is such a difference from flavor to flavor...
:blink:
I tried Capellas when I first started DIY but every single thing I made with their flavors made me cough, sneeze, got sore throat, itching and more. It took a little bit of time and experimenting to figure out that it was the PG and PG based liquids that cause it. Most people, I'm sure, don't have problems like that though. In the beginning when I read all the DIY subforums and saw how lots of people were using 10% and up to 20%, that how I started. Turns out I can only use a drop or 2 of PG based flavors in 5 to 10 mls of liquid.
There's entire threads dedicated to Capellas with lots of recipes around the forum though.
You're right about some flavors are perfect and other's need help lol.

I tried coffee extract too, using VG and it worked well :)

I will definitely need to try this. Sounds incredibly simple, and I'll know exactly what is in my vape--nothing's but fair-trade, organic and delicious goodness. That's one thing I worry about vaping--unnecessary additives like food dyes, unknown artificial flavors, etc. I vape commercial stuff, but I want to move toward more natural flavors. Does anyone have a favorite source for NET's for DIY?
