So I got my mixers :laugh: I made my first 12ml and I shook the 5h1t out of it for a few hours (not constantly) so after about 5 hours I tried a little in my Noble 1, the flavor was there for the first couple puffs then it went all chemical tasting :( do I have to add sweetener? and what's a good calculator (link please) for mixing everything together? Thanks to everyone for your help :)

I ordered 60ml @ 100mg nic PG and 60ml PG and put them together to make 120ml @ 50mg nic. I'm going to get a USC today. I've looked on YouTube on the proper way to steep in a USC but haven't seen anything, so how exactly does the USC work? Do I add water and put my mixed bottles in with top on or off of the bottle I'm steeping?

Made 25ml so....... I loved it so much I mixed 100ml 8mg 70vg 30pg :)
It's steeps out clear but I may add a color but not sure if I like the idea of smoking food coloring :(

UPDATE:
Ok guys, I wanted to see how my first batch came out locally before sending out to some of you and I must say...... WOW, overwhelming gratuity towards it but had a couple people tell me to add so drops of sweetener to it.
I just mix 100ml 8mg 70vg 30pg with 30 drops of sweetener (9 per 30ml = 30 per 100) I'll steep it for 2 weeks because my USC I just bought overheated and won't turn on :evil: and to the people waiting on samples I'll have them out to you ASAP :)

In the Ultrasonic Thread Part III I have seen really good reviews of the one you linked.

On sunday I just ordered this one Amazon.com: 1/2 Gallon Digital Heated UltraSonic Cleaner Stainless Steel Ultra Sonic Gal: Health & Personal Care

Should be here Friday. Holds about 1.89 liters, 99 minute timer, two setting, 42khz and 26 khz, and temp setting between 35 and 176 degrees Fahrenheit.

Thoughts on this one? Or if you know of one that go longer then 30 minutes let me know :)

So, my ultrasonic came in.

One small problem, was it was not exactly as advertised. The cycle is only 30 min, not 99 min just and FYI if you look for this one, plus it looks only one setting at that is 40khz. The temp gauge is in Celsius and not Fahrenheit, but it is cool that there is the temp to set you want and another reading for actual temp of water at that moment. Otherwise it works great. I even put in a small piece of aluminium foil as I had read to see if it is working and it created small holes in it very shortly.

Tried it out last night and seemed to work well. The only problem is the min line appears to be about 2/3rds of the tank so the small glass vials do not work well. Even the 30 ml bottles the water comes up fairly high, but the bottles appear to be air tight as no water got in, looks like I can anchor or let float.

Now, thinking more I did not compensate for displacement of the bottles. :facepalm: Next time I will put the bottles in and then fill.

Overall very nice. It does make noise so keep that in mind. I don't think I am going to return it because it would be a hassle with repackaging and everything else. So long as it lasts me a year I will be happy.

Let me know how it works :) $40 more for 2 extra cycles+ that's a deal
