First Mix

[YorkMan]

I’ll try cookie, I was thinking that or cereal.

Here's a starting guide for you - and I hope the more experienced mixers will tweak this for you

Keeping in mind it's going into a blueberry base - the strawberry should be fine with that.

 

[YorkMan]

Looks good, I’ll try it thanks!!

 

[YorkMan]

Done! How long shall I let it sit before trying?

 

[YorkMan]

Vaped it all morning, it’s good!

the strawberry should be fine as a shake & vape - which is what you did but the Vienna cream may need a longer steep time to bloom. If you like it as it is - it's a success

Thanks! Y’all must get a chuckle watching me do the things you did years ago.

I always enjoy reading where others are in the journey. I've been off cigarettes and vaping for nearly seven years, still have not mixed my own liquid, other than to pour the dregs of one flavor from one bottle into the dregs of another flavor in another bottle, or to mix dregs to fill one tank. I have only once experimented with adding flavor drops to store bought nic base.

I've had the set of cool glass metric measuring beakers for years, in a case in a drawer, waiting for the nanny apocalypse, a couple of nice glass syringes, and other supplies that will almost be a mystery when I finally dig in to start using them.

Keep up the good work.

That’s very interesting! If I can do it anybody can. I do admit to having a bit of the mad scientist in me.

I received my nicotine, 250ml of 24mg 50/50. This morning I mixed up 10ml of unflavored 3mg 70/30 (whoops I think VG/PG), 10ml whiskey and 10ml vanilla bourbon. Gonna let the flavored sit in a drawer for a few days. Can’t remember why I made the unflavored! Maybe to drip when I can’t taste anything. I mix by volume with a syringe directly into a squeeze bottle. Have a scale but only to 0.1g. I’ll order a good one soon 0.01g but I can’t afford it now, been buying too much vaping stuff!

There are good AWS scales on Amazon, small batch sized upto 100g at 0.01g resolution, that take AAA batteries for about 11$. If you want a calibration mass with it, it's like 5$ more, but I use mine as an espresso tamper...

I can’t afford not to buy that, thanks!

 

[YorkMan]

Ordered!

 

[smacuser]

That's the one I use.

Just did a vape taste test, don’t like the whiskey but the vanilla bourbon is great! I’ll add some vienna creme to the whiskey.

what didn't you like about the whiskey? I'd imagine it may have some flowery notes that'd need steeping out...

 

[YorkMan]

It surprised me by being quite harsh. Got problems with the bourbon though, it’s making my ears ring like a bell. Yes, I have tinnitus. Haven’t wanted to admit it. Can’t ignore the connection with vaping now. Argh.

Is it whiskey flavor, or actually whiskey? People used to recommend adding vodka to juice to thin it. I tried it once. Ugh, awful. So harsh.

 

[YorkMan]

FA flavor. Haven’t put booze in my juice yet!

...it's a vascular effect of nicotine.
