Do you mix your own liquids or buy pre made?

[Everything Liquid]

Hi Guys,

I'm interested to know how many of you are mixing your own liquids vs vaping premixed?

I personally have just discovered UK made e-liquid and must say it really can be something special, decided to give my own a bash last week and am considering moving over to making it myself.

Also if your buying it pre-made, from which country is your liquid?

I DIY and buy premade. Depends on my moods, my interest in their flavor and my budget. I try to stick to American made. I found a couple B&M that advertise "made in the USA" because they "make it" in the shop but their nic comes from china.

I love testing juices, so i'm buying juices from everywhere to test new juices out.
Eventually i'll prolly settle on DIYing aswell.

But for me it's a part of the vaping thing, to try new brands and juices.

I mix my own and love it!! Best thing I ever did!! Saves lots of money and I can make it exactly the way I like it!! I have enjoyed my juice so much more!!! I'll never go back to store bought!! If I get a craving, I just whip it up. No more waiting for days for it to come, ! It's so convient! Best part is flavor is soo much better because you control the amount! I wouldn't trade it for anything! Start up cost is less than you think and it's pretty easy to do.!!

DIY all the way!! I can get the flavor and strength of flavor exactly where I like it, without having to try 26 vendors to get the flavor profile I like.

DIY felt like the logical next thing to do after rebuilding and i'm really happy that id did.
If you get good at it, you can have the highest quality, tastiest and cheapest e-liquid possible.
If you're not then it just gets frustrating.
If you decide to go there, make sure that you get a lot of empty bottles and i mean A LOT and some stickers, or it will get messy real fast.

Once you get your forum membership, theres a poll section, you can post this there.

About 80% of what I vape is my DIY. You can just make what you want when you want and it's cheaper. Can't beat that.

to save time i always buy pre-made especially the vendor i used to order from have the right one i like so much so i don't have to make them =)

I make some, I buy some.

25% of my liquid is probably from China, the rest bought from a variety of places.

Given that I use LT e-cigs a lot and they use some Nic liquid and Flavours from Inawera, I guess you could say I vape Polish liquid.

The "made in the UK" thing is dubious to say the least. There are hundreds of "brands" that mass-buy junk from elsewhere and put it in bottles in England.

Both but mostly DIY.
Made is USA. Hopefully USA ingredients but not sure.

 

[joesquid]

DIY here. I mostly have used others recipes but adjust them to my liking.

I do both, and try to only buy American made right now.

You are right. The Chinese are smart & have many tricks. It's hard to know anymore if people are lying and selling Chinese made juice and claiming it's from another country. They are doing it on ebay also.

Oh BTW, welcome to ECF!

Right now I buy premix and on the occasion I will mix a couple together if I get bored. Once I find 2 or 3 more flavors I like I think I will give DIY a try on a small scale. If all goes well then I will eventually move into all diy flavors.

I DIY unflavored juice from the finest ingredients available. Only three ingredients...

1. CVS Glycerin USP (produced by Humco). Who knows where this comes from? It meets FDA specs for pharmaceutical glycerin in the USA and is Kosher. It is made from plants. Which plants? I don't know. Could be corn, could be palm oil, maybe lots of plants, who knows? Glycerin is a commodity traded on the world market.

2. Arrowhead Distilled Water. Not to be confused with Arrowhead Mountain Spring Water from the same multinational corporation (Nestle) this water is distilled from pure, unadulterated municipal tap water from a city somewhere in Northern California. Originally, Arrowhead came from the San Bernardino Mountains.

3. Nicotine USP. I get this from Xtreme Vaping in the USA. The nicotine is sourced from a single lab somewhere in China. I like the subtle taste.

I get my nic at myfreedomsmokes.com. I thought it was American made when I bought it, but I wouldn't swear to it.

I order a few things from myfreedomsmokes myself. As far as true to form premix flavors and having a satisfying nicotine try gourmet vapors. Honestly best juice Ive found. And they will special mix for you if you so want.

I do a combination! I like to DIY as I can control the percentages and flavor (to some degree). There are some pre made flavors that I really like so I buy them! Its probably running about 50/50 right now, but when things get busy I will pick up some juice some a local B&M

DIY. I will buy a boutique brand on occasion when it sounds good. Super inexpensive and I get just what I like with no surprises.
