I wanted my first attempt to be simple and save some cash...

Got my base from Wizard labs which was awesome. Did an 80PG/20 on 36 for my high nic so I just had to pour into bottles. Did an 18 on daily vape which I split to 9 by adding the same % PG/VG. Easy as pie. WL has great quality.

Got my juices, thanks to help here, at Capellas. AWESOME!

CHOC BROWNIE: was great at %5! Bumped to 10% (Hoosier would be mad I didn't steep it enough) probably better at 5 but still great.

Cinn swirl danish: SUCKED at 5%! Almost threw it out! Bumped to 15 then 20! AWESOME!!!!

Raspberry: Awesome (having some now)--great at 10% better at 15%. AWESOME!

Coconut: Not bad at 15% but not the best daily vape. Need 1 better for next time.


So my goal was to make some simple flavors in an easy fashion and I did! And they taste great! I didn't want to go high nic % and squeak out the savings, but wanted something easy.

But, for you new DIY people, check out the math at my even simple method:

50$ of product (not shipping):
10$ in beakers, syringes, measuring stuff
So really $40 in product
-10$ in flavors left from Capellas which are enough for an entire batch...

So for $30 I made 6 bottles of BETTER tasting stuff than the high end company I was paying $20/bottle for.

So in an easy way for $30 I made $120 of product I would have paid for. And I have all the %s I like for the next time.

Anyone in doubt of DYI should try it out!

Wizard's Lab+Capellas=the win for newbies!

Tip: I learned if you mix your base and get it ready before the flavors arrive, you should measure it into your little 30ml bottles! Had I known each bottle had 25 ml I could have added the flavor % easily, instead I had to pour it all out and measure it all every time I added stuff. Next time will be a snap.

TY! ECF!

Well, I've decided I'm NOT going to get sucked into DIY. I can already see how easy it is... I got sucked into spending too much time and money on the Ecig in general. I want to simplify! :) Got my bigger bats. Gonna do vivi minis or PBC exclusively then some mass simple flavors to have in stock. Not going to go crazy :).

You say that now, but ... resistance is futile. :)

Yes, but I feel myself getting sucked in... perhaps resistance is futile... I keep thinking next time maybe ill try that strawberry cream or... I WILL RESIST!

Trust me, it is the Sweet Tangerine you really want. The best of the new flavors in my opinion. Sooooo easy to use and soooo tasty. What's the worst that could happen?
