Speaking of "in the cart" mixes,
whenever I'm trying out a goofy mix, I take an empty cart with clean stuffing and drip the mad scientist brew straight into it:

2-3 drops nicotine juice
2 drops glycerine
1 drop flavoring
1 drop some other flavoring or liquor.

It fills a mini cart up to the brim. I usually swish it around by smooshing the polyester fiber all the way down and stirring with paper clip. Then reseat the fiber and take a puff. If it needs adjusting, I drip the appropriate fluid straight onto the atomizer.

Just did a mix like this:
11 mg marlboro juice
cherry lorann
glycerine
a drop or bourbon.

I call this one "Cherry Bomb". I like it, but I think it would be even better with a smidge of vanilla.

Was at a "health food" store and bought some Now "VG".

I ran across some Liquid flavoring called "SweetLeaf" liquid stevia (Made to drip into water etc for flavoring)

ingredients say:
Purified Water
Stevia (leaf) extract
Natural Flavors
Grapefruit seed extract

Anything anyone can see that would alarm not to use in formula?

Were you thinking of using this in place of VG in a mix? I don't know much about Stevia, except I think it is used as a sugar replacement. I don't know if this would cause a problem with you atomizer or not.

didnt i see somewhere that stevia = bad??

anyways...

vegetable gycerin is easiest to get locally at a health food store... your local gnc should have it...

pg... if you dont wanna take any guesses... go to walgreens... walk to the pharmacy counter and simply ASK the pharmacist to order you some.. the price they quoted mewas THIER price with the explanation that walgreens would of course jack it a small percentage.. aprox 30% they told me thier cost was $7 for a liter.. and $22 for gallon... thats pharma grade

Trapped within my imagination
Being new and with limited comercial flavors to play with as of right now ( got my unflavored today yay!) as well as coming off of being a heavy smoker with weak taste buds. Ive really had a hard time finding something to vape all day.. I know I cant be the only one in this newbie boat..
And like many I went strt for the tabacco type flavors ( ugh) way too much like a pipe taste for me ( some love it)...I also don't care for the heavier flavs that would normally go well with coffee and i love coffee lol...I found that I really liked the watermelon( fruit? who'd of thunk lol) as well as the mint ( never smoked menthol anaolgs!)= I bought menthol crystals asap ( yes i know its not the same as mint, but i was pretty sure, just a pinch would help coveing up bad mixes lol)
I found another flavor playing today I thought might help some newbies who are having trouble adjusting or someone who just likes a light vape with a lil kick. I had made a 20 mil bottle of strt unflavored high menthol concentration juice, just to drop into mixes as needed...

Subtle Cinnamon Blast (6ml)
3ml 36 mg unflavored e- liquid
2ml VG
1ml bickfords cinnamon ( ended up using .5 - 1 ml more, very weak flavor)
( add menthol e-liquid/mix to taste, I used bout 8 drops of my high concentrate)

I'd like to try this with Loranns Cinnamon Bun..I think it would add a lil spicey undertone as well...I used only VG in the mix. Knowing it was thicker and that I would be adding alot of the cinnamon flavoring=weaker flav.. It turned out really nice..It's subtley cinnamony, subtley minty and subtley sweet. I think it would be a nice base to tweak and play with..
I think it's important to find a few homemade mixs you like juust in case commercail e-liquid is ban.. ::pause:: Now if I just hadn't tried that darn RY4. It's completely growing on me..I'm so not gonna be happy if they take it away. lol..Happy mixing!

Anyone else made anything they think is more of a clean/light/crisp flavor? Happy Mixing!

Hey all. Got my first eCig today and am just waiting for my juice to come from Totally Wicked. I ordered 18mg Marlboro flavor. The carts that came with my eCig are simply not enjoyable. Anyway, I'm thinking 18mg might be too strong for me. So, Im obviously going to mix it. Now I can't post links because I'm such a new user, but the product I'm looking at is at walmart. Can someone who knows please go to Walmart Dot Com and search for item # 10417582. This looks like stuff I can use, right? I'm just gonna mix it 50/50 with the juice.

I also bought empty carts from totally wicked and I guess I now need to figure out how to make them with batting from walmart too... so much to learn!!!!

Be better to go to a candy making shop and get lorann glycerin. they also sell it in bakeries to add to frosting. the stuff you are taling about says

Active Ingredient: Glycerin 99.5% Anhydrous ... Skin Protectant.

the 99.5% glycerin sounds good. the ,5% anhydrous is what I would not like.

Lorann glycerin is 2.99 for 4 oz. and 9.50 for 16 oz

What I have read on here do not use batting from wal-mart. I just cheched myself and wal-mart batting has flame ......ent on it.

Have read posts where other users use fish tank filter cotton. it is pure cotton no chemicals due to fish tank. You cannot get it from wal-mart. You will need to go to a petstore
