I like FA Fresh Cream too Michaelsil and use it alot.

Sdh, I haven't ordered yet so I have nothing to report. I understand about making juice for your SIL...I personally don't care about the diketones but I wouldn't want to mix those flavors for anyone else. If I'm not mistaken, the Condensed Milk that I use in my ADV has diacetyl in it.

Howdy folks! Long time since I've been in these parts. Hi bov ! :) (I've seen you around) and sdh and Michael

Kind of tight and need some nic juice. Anybody know of a good deal going on right now?
I have not seen any deals on unflavored nic. I have been reading about the NicSelect nicotine that folks are not too happy about. Ecigexpress and myfreedomsmokes sells that brand. It has been mentioned that RTS does as well. However, I'm not so sure. Some of the nic (experts) may be able to tell you more in this thread. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...47-nicotine-comparisons-163.html#post12754017

I am looking to stock up with a few liters. However, I may make some sample purchases soon. I don't want to be stuck with crappy nic.

I usually get my Unflavored Nicotine from ECX, but after hearing everyone complain about what they have now I decided to get some Nude Nicotine. :) Fast shipping and in stock. :D

I ordered a few from ecx. They are still steeping. Someday, I plan on making a inawera order (Poland) but right now I have too many flavors.

Yeah I have too many flavors as well but haven't really bought any in a year believe it or not...lol It was so cheap I just ordered from Poland and see how this test order goes and if I like them enough to get more.

Afternoon everyone:)

Forgive me if this has been asked, and answered, but I have a question for anyone using Nature's Flavors. I've been back and forth between ecigexpress and HDV (buying almost every single flavor NF sells it seems for quite a few months, wanting to try alcohol based flavors lately.)

Do I remember reading on here, that someone (I forget who) thinks the two places sell 2 different "types" of NF flavors? The actual NF website is mind boggling. I've been assuming that both ECX and HDV sell the ecig use variety.

A few days ago I received from ECX a bottle of NF "Custard" and it's white liquid. I emailed them because I never had any flavors from either place that are cloudy white. Their response was to give it a warm water bath. I did that. But it's still cloudy white and I'm confused. There's no "settled cloudy bits"...the whole bottle looks like it's milk, basically.

In the past, any flavors that I've bought are clear " see through" and not cloudy and never had any that were white. (Have had some bottles where there were little white bits settled on the bottom but they do dissolve after a warm water bath.

Anyone else ever receive white or cloudy looking flavors?

I liked NF but could not get past the alcohol or the white settling dust at the bottoms of some of the flavors. If ECX says it should go away and it hasn't it must be a component in the flavor that is causing the cloudiness. I would hope that they would replace or refund if you aren't comfortable vaping that. Hopefully someone else will reply that has tried that flavor.

Thanks Shilo. I was just looking at the site and see they sell other brands that have milk or condensed milk in the title.

It's never bothered me the couple times I've gotten flavors with bits as long as they dissolved and didn't keep floating or settling. I see your point though. Up until today, all the NF flavors that I mix are clear (I do use clear bottles because I like to "see through" my e-liquids....an odd quirk of mine I suppose lol.)

I have a small bottle of NF Custard and mine is clear, no sediment, not cloudy. I'm certain I bought it from Ecx about 6 months or so ago.

I do not have a problem vaping the minute amounts of diacetyl or other diketones in the flavors such as condensed milk, custards, or in some of the organic flavorings. I would have a problem with a bottle that has visible sediment in it. I would request a replacement, and if he has no custard without the cloudiness, I would choose another flavor. Just my personal opinion.

thanks Bovina! I was wondering if NF changed something or if maybe I have a bottle of milk and not custard. Mine from both EX and HDV have never been cloudy or grainy in the past.

I have not emailed ECX again to ask more questions after they suggested I just had to do a warm bath. I think we have a misunderstanding at this point and I should email again. A warm water bath does dissolve the little white bits I've had in the past and it's all good. This whole bottle is grainy milk lol. (Not a bad flavor, but it has me puzzled and wonder what it really is?) I posted a question on the ECX forum a few minutes ago as well.
