First DIY Ever!

[PatrickReza]

I got in the mail today:

-60ml Unflavored 36mg PG
-120ml PG (No Nic to cut my juices down from 36mg)
-10ml Peach Extract (juice Flavoring)

I just got to making my own juice today and
made my first 7ml

I did 1/2 36mg+ 1/2 PG (0 Nic) =18mg Peach juice?

[is that calculation right?]

does the flavoring (extract) reduce the nicotine content?

I really like it! All the MadVapes DIY supplies
are really clean and flavorless, except the
Peach of course hahah. Anyways here's a
picture of my first bottle of DIY E-Juice.

Happy Vapes and Thank You So Much MadVapes and ECF!

Math is correct and the amount of flavor you add will reduce nic content. Since you did not supply mls of each used I can not calculate end result. I would suggest getting a calculator. There are many good ones out there but this is the one I use:

eJuice Me Up - e-Juice e-Liquid Recipe Calculator

Also note if the juice seems a little flat you may want to pick up some sweetner to. I am one that needs a sweetner at about 1% of total mix for my flavors to "pop". Not everyone needs this but if the juice seems like it is missing something that is most likely it.

Congrats on jumping into DIY and it really does bring this hobby to a whole new level. Happy vapes

what kind of sweetner do you use i know of two

 

[salemgold]

This is a very easy to use calculator that I use eJuice Recipe Calculator
in case you are like me and don't have excel on your computer. I use flavorings to sweeten rather than sweeteners as I find sweeteners clog cartos very quickly

Marshmallow and White Chocolate sre 2 of my favorite sweeteners. many like Cotton Candy (ethyl malitol) but it has a chemical taste IMO.

what kind of sweetner do you use i know of two

I use the "sweetner" flavor which is Sucralose in pg solution for fruit, bakery and candy type juices and "Cotton Candy" flavor which is Ethyl Malto at about 10% in pg for tobacco type juices. Both can be found at one stop DIY or other DIY suppliers. I have bought many flavors (about 185) over the past months from several Suppliers all have been good but I like doing business with OSDIY.

 

[PatrickReza]

yeah i use LR attys so im already getting tons of flavor, i think just adding more flavoring is good enough for me!

Congrats Patrick, kind of like your first born And to the others who posted the calculators thanks I am wanting to start DIY or at least have been considering picking up some PG and VG Nic base in case worst case happens and the niconazis win the war on E-cigs

Way to go! I love my first DIY peach. Just put in another order for 100ml LA peach flavoring.

 

[salemgold]

Have you peach lovers tried the FlavourArt White Peach? It is oustanding IMO I don't care for FA regular peach but the white is delicious

Thanx!

 

[PatrickReza]

sounds bomb! Hahah where do you guys buy your pg and pg nicotine?

 

[PatrickReza]

def gonna give white peach a shot and new o master the mixing more but I like it so far ends up cheaper too! figured I had to take a picture of my first DIY haha

Congrats on doing your DIY ejuice. I have been DIY for a few months, and still buy juices from my favorite vendors, but I make some good ones these days so my buying is less each month.

Patrick, what percentage of peach flavoring did you use. Madvapes recommends 20%. Is that too much?

 

[PatrickReza]

yeah in my opinion way too much! i put probably 1 drop per mL

 

[Iffy]

what percentage of peach flavoring did you use.

I'm not Patrick, but I do love my LorAnn peach. I wound up at 14%.

 

[PatrickReza]

finally got to using the syringe te juice tastes way better now with calculations and less flavoring, turns out my girlfriend is way better at making juice than I am, she's much mire precise an patient than I am hah (and a lot hotter than me IMHO hahahah) we ended up doing .3ml PG .6ml 36mg PG and 1 drop of flavoring just as a test sample

 

[PatrickReza]

this is what I'm getting for my next batch! this is what im thinking put your input in please!

8oz PG - $8.50 (Dilution Base Liquid - One Stop DIY Shop Store)

1oz Peach - $5.50 (https://www.lorannoils.com/p-8518-peach-flavor.aspx)

4oz~36mg Nic PG-14.95 (Gourmet Vapor E-Cigarettes and E-Liquids)

 

[PatrickReza]

same price but for a lot more oz. hahah

Thanks for the new ideas, my friends. I just graduated to going from pre-filled cartomizers to filling them myself - K808s - (via Dr. Vapor UTube video on sinking the cart into the condom - very easy). Using V4L blank cartomizers and Velvet Vapors juice ... What you are talking about seems really difficult to me. I guess it takes gradual steps, yes? Sounds like fun, though. Do I need to be stocking up on items due to niconazis (?) to make sure no one takes my new life saving hobby away? Your thoughts? Also, am I purchasing from the best providers?
