I also seem to be very sensitive to EM. One drop of 10% EM in PG and I get 'body' but I also get a strong burnt sugar/cotton candy taste. Anything more it becomes overwhelming. But I don't get throat irritation, just sickly sweet and syrupy.

My first DIY mix was 10% tobacco Blend (PG) from TPA, which is basically TA, EM and PG (scubabatdan's recipe). At first I loved it, then I found it sickly sweet and overwhelming despite weeks of steeping.

A wise man named hoosier instructed me to add ONE DROP of this to 5ML tobacco base and it is absolutely amazing :)

FlavourArt sells it, it's called either "Vape Wizard" or "MTS Vape Wizard". It's used for a variety of applications, adding body to e-liquids is one of them. It's kind of hard to describe, but it does affect the character of the vapor. Best bet is to get a bottle with your next DIY order (it's only $5 or so) and see how it affects your liquids.

Wow, I wonder if I got a bad batch? Because when I taste the raw crystals there is NOTHING sweet about them... it tastes like poison! Where did you buy yours? I do a 60 0r 70% pg to a 30-40 VG combo.

Nope thats how EM is . Its not a sugar . If you taste the raw EM on your tongue its not supposed to be sweet but when you add it to a ejuice it reacts different and does add body and sweetness .

OK, sorry for being a dumb newbie but what is Vape Wizard? I was mixing it up with another product I had heard about.

Vape wizard adds body and enhances tobacco juices . I emailed FA a while back and they told me that vape wizard is a tobacco flavor itself that enhance tobacco juices . MTS stands for Mellow ,Thick and smooth.

You could add it to a bakery flavor and see what it does but IMO iv never had luck using it in those types of juices . I just didnt notice it doing anything .
