Can someone take a quick look at this shopping cart?

Can someone take a look at the below shopping cart? This is the first time I am going to order and try some DIY e juice items and I wanted to make sure I am not forgetting anything. I have my ejuice calculator ready to go from eJuice Recipe Calculator so if you all are thinking im missing anything please let me know.

Thank you.

ITEM DESCRIPTION


250 ml of Propylene Glycol USP Grade
30 ml Caramel (Original) Flavor
30 ml Banana Cream Flavor

10 Pack of 3 ml Dropette Disposable Transfer Pipetes

60 ml of 60 mg Flavorless Nicotine Liquid - Vegetable Glycerin USP Grade Kosher



Changed the post around so hopefully its readable now.

Your post is not displaying properly so it's hard to tell what brand of flavors you are getting but you'll probably need a sweetener and don't forget bottles, lots of bottles.

Yea post won't display properly for me either.. can't tell who or what your getting. But you need pg, vg, flavors and of course your nicotine base liquid.

Hmm sweetener, im not sure what this is so I will have to look it up.

Looks good. Do you have empty bottles? I'd pick up a couple of syringes. I like them a little better than pipettes.

I'm assuming you're getting your nic base in VG so you won't have to purchase it separately?

 

[bobothewizard]

Yep, i have been saving most of my empty bottles from the ones I bought so I will try and re-use them. Yes the Nic is 60 ml of 60 mg Flavorless Nicotine Liquid - Vegetable Glycerin USP Grade Kosher

Ahh syringes, good idea instead of the pipettes

 

[glassmanoak]

syringes in addition to pipettes is a good idea. Also a large bore needle for syringes. like 12 guage cause VG is thick (as in nicotine juice)
..... Personally, I would buy 100mg/ml nic juice because it will go further. Also plastic gloves when handling the nic solution
Good luck!

 

[bobothewizard]

Good idea with the 100mg, I will do that. Thank you all.

 

[Caridwen]

I don't buy 100 mg only because I have to make sure I have extra PG/VG on hand. I buy pretty close to what I actually vape.

I don't mind paying a couple pennies more because I know I have fresh ingredients on hand. JMO. Certainly more cost effective though to get 100 mg. I just threw away a bottle of nic because the color was getting a little funky (yellow).

You don't say what strength you want to vape at, but for your first time mixing I HIGHLY recommend getting a lower strength than 100mg/ml just for safety's sake.

Also looks like you're getting 30 ml size bottles of TPA/TFA flavorings. You might want to consider getting smaller sample bottles of flavorings until you discover what you like. You also might want to consider getting some of the flavorings that are considered easier for 1st time success, i.e. Capellas, or the super concentrated flavors from VapingZone or EcigExpress.

What I was doing was just using the eJuice Recipe Calculator calculator and typing in 100 for the first fill in box, is that the wrong way to do it?

I was actually trying to get to 11mg nic level for 30ml of juice. I was under the impression that for that type of mixture i would use 6ml of flavor and was afraid that I would run out?

 

[Caridwen]

$5.00 for a 30 ml bottle of TPA is a pretty good price.

I didnt think it was to bad either, I watched this video on youtube E-liquid DIY Done Easy 1 - YouTube since I'm almost out of juice and figured what the hell lets give it a try. My wife and I will both use the juice, I just dont want to get us sick. Already have some latex gloves here so when mixing that 100mg nic I will wear those.

One you use like 2.5% and the other 8-10% or whatever. I do like some of the concentrated flavoring, but use both. But I'm no expert. I don't think it hurts to have some extra on hand, you may use it for another recipe. You might even want to trade some flavoring in PIF. Pick up a couple small bottles just in case. They're pretty cheap.

That's a good starting point for you. I'm sure it won't be your last order.

Careful with 100mg nic. Even the fumes out of the bottle can poison you...

I'd just use a lower strength base... That's just me of course. Better safe than sorry tho.
