LOL yea im 20 years old the avatar is me! LOL i was blessed with young looks HAAHHHAHA. Yea im very very careful with the nicotine im trying to make things cheaper and well hospital visits are NOT cheap!! LOL

Thank you guys! Though i do have a question its very dry even when i refill my carts any idea why? When i say dry i mean like the vapor is very dry!

Also Live2Ski it is pretty cool actually! like when i finished and it was all in the bottle i shook it up and just looked at it like wow i just made ejuice!

Is your liquid all PG? PG tends to make for a dry juice. If you mix in some VG it'll be a lot better. I usually shoot for 80/20(PG/VG) in my mixes

DIY is a lot of fun, been doing it for a couple of months and I don't think I will ever buy premade juice again. I like to age my juices a few days before trying, which is really hard to do..lol. Are you using any vg in your juices, that may be the difference in the dryness you noticed?

 

[badmemory]

Adding a little em will help also I use perique black at 12% with 3% cotton candy, thanks to Switched on the heads up on the flavor percentage.

Nice Job Code Keep it up, you will only get better! There are a lot of people that don't have good luck with their "first batch" so it's good to hear that yours turned out well. I too had a good "first time" experience with DIY and I've been making my own ever since. I still buy an occasional bottle of my favorite pre-made juice, but mostly vape what I create. Enjoy

Great to hear it code, your well on your way....

 

[Code]

Thanks you all!! Yea i like watched MistressNomad's videos like 12 times before i did it just so i knew what had to be done and such the calculator she provided made a world of difference as well!! Umm i didnt buy any VG though i may try it out very soon cause it is a pretty dry vape but its still nice. Gotta wait to get paid before i can buy any though. I havent bought on premade juice at all I'm having way to much fun making my own why spend so much on premade when i can just DIY it LOL. Kinda like why go out and order pizza when i can make it at home

Code - You could add just a little VG, and it will make a lot of difference in the dryness and vapor. Like 10% to 20% or so -- or whatever works for you. You can get a $3 bottle of Glycerin (VG) at Walmart. It's usually on the shelf above the isopropyl alcohol bottles in the pharmacy area. Here's what to look for:

I was gonna recommend the glycerin from wal mart as well. I just started diy myself about a week ago, I've made 9 flavs...tried 6, really like 3 of them, 1 is absolutely horrid~!

I'm sensitive to pg, so I make mine exclusively with VG. I was using the humco from walmart until I got my order from Vapor Renu, their stuff has the least throat hit I've found so far. Since the vg mutes the flavor a bit I flavor to 25% or 30, and the flavorings are pg based so they still pack a little too much TH for me, I've been trying to find VG based flavorings but not a lot of luck so far.


Good luck with your DIY, I'm hooked on making my own juices now~!

Lynlee, go check at One Stop DIY Shop, they have a listing of pg free flavorings.

 

[lynleestar]

I got it from One Stop DIY Shop it comes from perfumers apprentice flavorings. I love it i just made my strawberry kiwi from them as well and its not very good the strawberry is to strong not enough kiwi in it.

Alright I will have to get some VG then!!

sandyk Merry Christmas to you as well!

Happy Holidays to everyone els!!

I have had problems with Cake Shop VG before, but never with the stuff pictured.

I tend to go <20% VG for a TH, but still need that VG. (Straight PG juice is really very stealthy though.)

Yea i have noticed that one i use straight PG with my 510 and yet i have heard all this stuff about very good vapor production with the 510 LOL i never took into account my PG was to blame.

Code, congrats on your first DIY! Its a beautiful thing when you make your own juice for a fraction of retail cost, and you actually really like it! Welcome to the DIY side of the tracks!

Anything more than 20% PG dries me out relentlessly...its a chemical drying that even drinking a lot of water does not really help...like some drugs give you dry mouth. My DIYs are VG based, and I generally keep the flavors to 10% or less, depending on the flavor. I use distilled water to thin, 10-20%. Sometimes dripping an unthinned VG juice is what I want. I like my TH to be from nic only. thinning with a little water opens up the flavors...but then I and many others here prefer less flavor to more.

And I never got kiwi-strawberry to work either. I tried Lorann's, and it was too candy like and too tart. Nice for a couple hits, but became annoying fast. Same with blackberry.

My fave PA flavors:

Black Walnut
Bavarian Creme
French Vanilla
Apple...not at all candy flavor, like green apple. More like red delicious.
Blueberry

Lorann faves:
Cheesecake
Bavarian creme...different than PA bav creme!
English Toffee (mixed with PA black walnut it is divine)

Lots of others, but other than blue berry, I have not found any fruits I really like from any flavor dealer.

Have fun!!
