Im not much of a DIY'er anymore because I wasted too much juice on experimenting with flavors Im a bit picky, hate sweet flavors. Love tobacco's and mild sweet stuff like tobacco honey and vanilla's, nutty stuff, etc. Nothing I ever made stuck out to me as "great juice"

That being said, I ordered almost all my flavors from flavor apprentice and alot of it is fruity - sweet fruity. Wiz labs sent me a sample of their flavorings though that I mixed with some not-so-sweet other stuff and the wiz labs flavor is probably my favoirte. Im sure that if I invested enough time and money in other flavoring company's and tobacco bases I could come up with some killer stuff I love. Im just not willing to go down that road anymore.

BUT

If I did, I would certainly try more wiz labs stuff and try to extract my own stuff, without so much candy. Grats on finding something that works for you, its significantly cheaper to make your own liquid. In the case of a zombie apocalypse I've got enough nic and vg/pg to last me at least 6 months of solid vaping.

Now if I can just figure out how to keep the batteries charged...

I've been DIY for a month now, and I couldn't agree more,,,,,

Starting simply, with simple one flavor juices is probably advisable. But I jumped into two flavors not long after,,,,,,,,easy peasy and simple as pie, but I'm not all that picky, enjoy most juices, and I'm not into tobacco flavors, which I believe are more difficult to make,,,,,,,,I like mostly sweet fruity flavors, and those don't even need steeping,,,,,,,totally saved a ton of money this month,,,,,,,

FYI- Most of WL flavors are Flavor Apprentice. They don't have their own line of flavors :)

here, there and everywhere
I also got my package from wizard labs. I was surprised at how big the bottle of nic juice was lol It was very easy to mix it up BUT seeing if the flavor %'s come out will be interesting lol I can't wait to experiment more but only mixed 4 bottles and letting them steep to see how it works before I get all gung ho and waste my liquids.

I mix all my own vape and have found some awesome combos. One tip I can offer is that it's you are making tobacco flavors then get some de sweetener from liberty flights. It's not called de sweetener but if you look on there you'll see what I mean. It basically neutralizes all of the sweetNess from the vg and pg bases, in turn giving you a more realistic tobacco juice. I use it with my cafe Braziliano from decadent vapors. Awesome stuff

I use The Flavor Apprentice flavorings all the time with my DIY...but I don't get them from WL. Nothing personal...it's just every time I need my favorite flavor, Wizard is out. So I get mine elsewhere for the same (or within pennies) price. WL doesn't have an exclusivity with TFA. But I'm sure they are a fine company. If they'd just stay stocked up!!

enthusiasm you will not last long, is rewarding, but it is a joke. I did the same and just do 3 flavors (favorites) and nothing else.

Oh, I don't know about that,,,,,,,,,,,,I know plenty of people who have plenty of enthusiasm after years of mixing their own,,,,,,,there's not a thing wrong with only doing your 3 favorite flavors though :)
