I love ecto plasma, hard to describe the flavor, it is kind of limey/green koolaidy.....that is not a very good description lol....I have ordered from Juicy 5 or 6 times and never had an issue. The worst thing about it is the shipping price, cheapest is $16 priority.

I really wanna buy some juicy vapor juices, but don't want to just flush down a hundred bucks if it gets caught at the border. Blahh.

Buy some vg/pg/nic and a bottle of flavorwest ecto cooler and mix your own. It won't be green, but you won't be vaping artificial colouring either.

I was thinking about doing this, but then I had a couple people tell me that it's not the same flavour. Apparently the Ecto Cooler is an orange/tangerine flavour while the Ecto Plasma is a lemon/lime.

Yeah, the ecto from FW is more tangerine. Either way, I'm still not a huge fan of vaping food coloring, and that vendor seems to add it to most of their juices. Water soluble or not, it really doesn't need to be there. Then again, some people dye their poodles pink. Different strokes for different folks :)


What percentage of flavoring do you prefer?

My recipe is this:

5ml/12mg

FW Ecto Cooler 0.75ml - 15%
Cap Sweet Tangerine - 0.25ml - 5%
TPA Menthol - 0.05ml - 1%

I should say too, I cut my TPA Menthol. About 4ml to 6ml PG. I want flurries not a full out winter freaking blizzard you'd get by using 1% of TPA menthol right out of the bottle. If I'm not in the mood for menthol, I'll just use coolada.

Honestly, I'd like it to be a little more tart, but its a nice orange-tangy taste (orange gatorade). I'd love to get some lime in there, but the only lime I have is FW Key Lime which tastes horrible IMO.

Thanks for the recipe. I'll log it for future reference.

My first try with FW Key Lime was horrible too! I mixed some other samples at different strengths and found that it tastes best around 5%. Flavor is not linear, twice as much doesn't taste twice as good, apparently! Lol

As for Poodles, it's a lot different dying something that isn't going into your lungs on a regular basis, just the odd hair now and then is probably OK. Lol

I am always searching for juice flavourings that do not have dye added. I even alternate a tank of unflavored in the Mini Nova because the long wicks hold a lot of the colour and flavouring and I can hardly tell the difference, tastewise, usually.

Thanks again!

I honestly just started into the world of DIY. If you search the canada forum, I posted a while back with the subject "diy" and got a lot of great information for diynoobz.

It isn't as hard as it looks. I'm using the syringes I got with my phoenix bottom coils, and every time I order stuff I just pick up a new flavour here and there. So far I got a pretty good blueberry cinnamon crumble (tpa blueberry extra + cap blueberry cinnamon crumble + em), apple pie (capella apple pie + lorann apple + em) and my ecto recipe above. I'm also working on getting this TPA RY4 to taste decent and I think I have a pretty good TPA Mocha + TPA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream mix.

Anyway, X is right about non-linear flavours. TPA Mocha at 15% tasted like total crap - sort of like used motor oil mixed with WD-40. At 5% it is a great mocha. Once I find the sweet spot for flavours, I mark the percentage on the bottle with a sharpie so I don't forget and make something totally nasty.

The TPA RY4 is the only flavour that my wife ever commented that, " that stinks". She never noticed anything offensive with Juggy's RY4! I think it must be the tobacco part that comes through. Let me know if you find a concentration, combination, or another use for this flavour.

I've been thinking about starting to try and make some juices, I probably will if I can find a good place that will make the pg/vg liquid w/ nicotine for me. I wonder if Jughead would do something like that?

The TPA RY4 is very floral. I find it almost tastes like a light menthol. Anyway, I got it to the point where I can stand it. I mixed TPA RY4, vanilla bean ice cream and 2-4% EM. You can still taste the floral part of it, but the others hide it a bit.

Jugheads

The first item is your unflavored base. Remember, if you're shooting for say a 12mg juice, you need a higher base (say 24mg), because you will add plain PG/VG plus your flavours which all dilute the base.

Download eJuice Me Up - Best eJuice Calculator and play around with that for a bit, and you'll see how everything goes together.
