So i want to get a build my own juice 30ml setup to hold me over a while, but im wondering what some of your guys' favorite flavor combo's are, i typically like fruitier flavors but some "ice" flavors r fun (not necessarily menthol). been thinking blue berry, black cherry, acai, and mango or pineapple or just snuff the last flavor n keep og three.

Next question, what your preferences with PG/VG ratio? since im using a VV twist i dont mind a little less vapor coming from juice cuz i can just crank it up, so mayb im looking a little bit more for LASTING flavor. recs?

lastly, i heard u HAVE to get the extra flavoring, true?

thanks in advance, i just upgraded to a victory "mini protank" as the lady told me at the B&M store n compared to my buddies' regular protanks i just tried out today it seems identical, and quite enjoyable, VERY SMOOTH and good flavor too, im on a tropical punch mixed with mango (soooo good).

im in deep, its like a whole new world yet to be discovered, 21 days off analogs, boom.
 
I don't DIY juices but I can answer a few things. I have a Protank and it does seem to make my juices seem weaker in flavor so I always get extra flavor added to compensate. Also, vg makes better vapor but gives weaker flavor whereas pg gives less vapor but better flavor. I have to use vg because I don't react we'll to the pg.
As far as favorite flavors, I tend to like the fruity flavors and I have mixed some of my flavors but just things like strawberry banana, and blueberry blackberry, so I can't give any advise there.

I'm finding I really like the higher VG, they seem smoother to me. But they gunk things up awfully fast. Waiting on some 50/50 in the mail yo see if that helps.
Haven't combined flavors yet but my dad said he had a whole bunch of bits left over from different juices so he just put them all in at once and it turned out to be his favorite vape yet! Lol

ya i typically mix some flavors i already have like strawberry ice and watermelon bubblegum, or adding pineapple to pretty much anything hehe, and my staple stalwart is Lemon Blueberry Cotton Candy, mmmm

thx for the info on the pg/vg. the flavors i have now r all 60pg/40vg so mayb ill try a little more pg for more flavor n add some flavor shots too! ya on the mount baker vapor site u can make ur own flavors up to 5 flavor combos, pretty cool

Behind you!
All flavoring is different and you need to test them all individually before mixing. That way you can see what flavors might be good together. Not all flavors are created equal. This also helps you check the flavor concentration too. Keep notes! You dont necessarily need more flavor, but better concentrates of flavor. Read the DIY forum also. Research recipes you want to try. Some flavors are good at 5% while others you need 25% (total % of your flavoring).

For a beginner DIY, stick to the basics first: Strawberry, Watermelon, Blueberry, Vanilla, etc. Things that work well on there own or mixed. It easy to want to get into mixing all sorts of flavors right away but you will waste a lot in the beginning if your not careful.

As far as PG/VG... I prefer 50/50 but it depends on what you want to vape.

Hope this helps a little. Remember, RESEARCH is key.
