E Liuid Question

[GoochMan]

Just got in my first order of Liquid. Only got 4 flavors to start, 2 different tobacco flavors, Cherry, & Coffee w/French Vanilla. The coffee and the cherry seem to be very very strong flavors.
Is there a neutral base or something to mix it with to reduce the potency. Or do I just play with flavors and find a good mixture on my own?
I did mix the cherry with the one tobacco flavor and it tastes good but is still verry strong.
Thanks for any feedback

What nicotine level are these liquids? What base PG/VG ratio are they and what equipment are you using? All of these things will have an effect on the perception of the flavor.

Tell us more and we can give specific advice.

Oh, and welcome to ECF!

You can dilute them down a bit using PG/VG to your liking, just know that this will also lower you Nic MG and lighten up the flavoring, start by using a small say 3ml bottle, pour your juice amount into this 3ml bottle and add some PG/VG to it to get it where you think you like it. This way you can experiment like this and not mess up your entire bottle of pre-made juice. Also always go on the lite side with what ever you do, you can always add more but once you over do it then it is much harder to get it back where you liked it. Hope this helps ya a bit.

Thanks for response
Nicotine Level is 24mg, & I know I goofed on pg/vg ratio but didn't think it would affect flavor.
First flavor is tobacco - 100%vg
Second is Cherry - 100%vg these two flavors I mixed completly together and taste is good but real strong
Then I have Tobacco - 40pg/60vg
And lastly - Coffee with French Vanilla - 50/50

I am using a greensmoke now and should be getting a Lavatube in tomorrow. I ordered some different flavors to come in with the lavatube and all of those are a 50/50 ratio with 24mg of nicotine. I am using 24mg of nicotine cause I just quit smoking 5 days ago and figured I would use that strentgh at first then reduce it down as time goes on cause I was using the 18mg cartos that came with the greensmoke and I was constantly puffing.

High VG juiced like that are very thick and clog attys and cartos
Faster. Cartos and tanks work alot better with 30%VG or less.

Hmmm...not true. I use virginvapor's 100% VG all the time in cartomizers. No problems at all and I DON'T thin it nor does Annette.

How about adding a couple drops of the cherry or coffee with vanilla to one of your tobacco juices?

All three- cherry, coffee and vanilla alone can be pretty strong flavors.

I'm not even that fond of tobacco juices but I accidently mixed some of my peach with tobacco and it was pretty good.

 

[hairball]

If you don't want the nic contect to decrease but just the flavor, you will need to buy unflavored nic in the same strength and mix it to your liking. You can also add plain pg or vg to it but your nic strength will drop if that matters to you.

 

[Running Wolf]

Can use some VG at Walmart to reduce the flavor and nic level a bit. Cost effective at $3 via Walmart. If it's too thick can thin it out with a few drops of vodka or distilled water.

If you don't have any empty juice bottle you can try to use an empty medicine bottle, shot glass, or try to find somethign the medicine shot glass at a craft store.

Figure that vodka and VG are usually easier to pick up locally than say PG. You can get a gallon of PG at Tractor Supply (or try some other feed/livestock store).

If they need Flavorless Nic Juice 36 mg 36 MG Flavorless Nicotine Liquid is having a sale:
35% Off All 36 MG Liquid Nicotine (PG and VG)

All bottle sizes in both PG USP and VG USP Kosher

Effective immediately through December 31, 2011.
While supplies last. No rain checks.
Use coupon code: 36MGNIC

Why a 35% off sale? Our customers have changed their ordering preferences. Very few customers order 36 mg liquid nicotine. They order higher MG strengths and quite frankly we are over stocked and want to unload this 36 mg nicotine who is on average 45 days old and in good shape.
Happy New Year

[Vapoor eyes er]

It's really quite easy once you have the flavors figured out. If/ when the time comes and you want to try DIY feel free to pm me.

What are you trying to do?

 

[Vapoor eyes er]

Yes I did.
You need:
PG- USP...ordered from a farm supplier or special order from Pharmacy- tell them you need it for making non allergenic soap.
VG- got that already
Flavorless Nicotine Juice- mg dependent on what you mg you vape
Flavors
Walmart Oral Med Dispenser for measuring
Bottles
and this free easy to use calculator

[GoochMan]

Ok I will check out my option now that I know I can do something rather then being stuck withflavors I can't use. Thank you

 

[swedishfish]

I wouldn't spend a lot trying to fix flavors you really don't like. Sometimes it's just best to try a new flavor.

Where did you get your juice? Are they big bottles?

 

[matt1101]

Good information in this thread.

 

[GoochMan]

They are 5ml bottles, so nothing big I knew I should start with little bottle till I find what I like.
