I keep promising myself I will stop buying juice.

Shamrock shake went into a tank this morning plus a combo of pancake and boysenberry pancakes. I think boysenberry needs steeping but my husband could smell pancakes.

SS is very good. Very chocolate mint, sweet and rich. This is the only juice I've tried that has a chocolate flavor that I like. But right off the bat there's the black pepper taste of nicotine that nearly put me off it. I only go 6mg, I know it's supposed to dissipate with steeping and the juice is still really good. Totally worth it- especially since their juices are such good value!

Eta: maybe it's more vanilla than chocolate. I've never had the actual mcd's SS. Also, boysenberry was a little harsh. Poured some out and added Blackberry waffle, months old, from local b&m. VERY nice!

Thought I'd share. This is from Walt (killer juice)

Hey a couple notes here. We have received some concerns with flavors being effected by the super cold. We actually know now what was the cause and have fixed it. The cream we used was actually crystallizing due to the super cold temperatures here in Michigan.

Normally all packages are kept inside or on the truck but it seems that some were left is super cold weather and now they taste like a pepper mess.

This effected 5 of our flavors and will work with anyone that has had problems. Just let me know so I can make it right.

With that being side the new formula has been tested and is ok for up to -25 degrees 

Also a couple flavors got wiped out due to the huge amount of orders. We are out of Red Bull, Jim Beam, and only a couple Blue Moon left.


So contact him about the pepper taste and he'll fix it

I'm so intimidated by rebuildable stuff. I want to learn and possible get a nice carto tank one day. Just really don't have patience or interest in fiddling with stuff. I even tried rebuilding my own pro tank attys. No luck...was not successful. Maybe one of these days.
Start W a cheap dripping atty, something w/ post style terminals. Its a lot easier than it looks, just watch a few tutorials and youll get the hang of it quick

Oooh...what did you order from Alien Visions? I love Gorilla Juice. REALLY LOVE IT. But I realized that it was causing my face to break out while using it. Breakouts going away now that I've stopped using it. Makes me so sad.
Smurf piss, hawaiian punch, and bobas bounty. Wanted to see what all the hype was about:)

so freezing can permanently affect flavor ? I didn't know that.

I thought they are ok once they warm up

I have a couple of 510 atty's that I use at home for tasting and for just at home vaping. They make the juice taste great, but so messy and leaky, even with a drip guard.

Check out discount vapors or evcigarettes. They have a big selection of drippers. I would go with a simple, single coil, side located airhole setup. One that has bottom located airhole leaks a lot. You dont need to spend a lot, under $15 should land you something perfect for a beginner. Make sure to buy several sizes of wire and wick as well as an ohmmeter... youll need to experiment around to figure out how you like it. WWatch a few of pbusardo's tutorials, have patience, and youll be rewarded with the flavor that comes out of a well built rda setup- nothing beats one as far as flavor's concerned

So....I've tried both juices from Killer Juice.

Killer Cherry: Very light and mild....with a hint of plastic in the background. Vaped out of my ProTank on a spinner and MVP II at 4.0 and 4.1 volts. Won't vape any more of it....I may PIF this one...someone else may enjoy it.

Irish Cream: Only tried this on a 510 atty that I use for tasting (dripping). Not bad! Actually can tell that it's supposed to be Irish Cream. May put this in my IClear30 and see how it does on a dual coil. Won't buy this one again, but will be nice to have on hand for a while.

Anyone else have any thoughts?

The regular fruits have been light on flavor to me. A lot of people seem to love it, but I prefer in your face bold flavor most of the time :p

Juicy fruit is my favorite, followed closely by blue moon. I'm still being too picky though I think too. Having a huge problem finding stuff I just love, only one flavor I constantly go back to every time.

And what is that one flavor?

Halo Tribeca... Can't find anything else at the moment that I can always have loaded and ready, and I am always in the mood for. I rotate through a bunch but that and kj juicy fruit are the only juices I've bought 30ml in. Waiting on shipments of hhv and good life vapor, so fingers crossed

My "one juice that I always go back to" is R Y U No 4? (Derp Sauce). I am running low (only 20ml left!) and went to Giant Vapes to order it today, but they are sold out of all except for the 0mg and the 6mg-I use 24mg. :( I sent them an email asking when they expect more. Hopefully it will be soon!!!!

I'm so sad right now! NOOOOO!!!

In reality, that 20mg I have left will probably last me another 2 weeks. Although it is my "go-to" juice, I still vape a lot of other juices. Now, if it were the ONLY juice I would ever vape, it would be lucky if it lasted me 5 or 6 days.

Hi ladies

Just came across this thread and yes-I have a problem. Right now I'm trying to talk myself out of buying more juice that I don't need. Juice Mafia has a special on right now. Reviews look great! They are offering 2-30ml bottles for 18$ or 3-25$ and shipping is free over 30$ even to Canada. Got my shopping cart filled and have put my credit card back in my wallet twice now.

Just got my AIV order the other day-put in another order to Fastech(no juice though) and promised myself that was more than enough!! Killer Juice is okay-don't think I will be tempted again though, even though prices are good and he keeps offering free bottles. I really only like Blue Moon. Ordered 5 from him and meh-chocolate mint is yucky. I think Alice has spoiled me. Their juices taste so much richer?

Only tried Tiki from Halo-didn't like it and tried a sampler from HHV and was very disappointed after all the hype. Interested to see how you like Good Life

Hello and welcome to our little thread! I have had to that often---talk myself out of more juice purchases. Take out the credit card, but it back, take it out, put it back......etc. :)

I like Alice's juices, too. Yes, some of hers do seem rich and most of them are superb! Have not tried HALO yet, but I agree with your opinion on HHV. I am not a big fan. I've tried 4 of them. They all seem to taste like a plastic like candy to me. Even the tobacco blend I tried (Legend). I was kind of sad that I didn't like them because I really wanted to...but oh well. I will use them to trade on the PIF forum eventually.

I'm so impatient. I always spend my vape budget before aiv even comes online, and I've been told they need a month to mature into the right flavors. Tiki is definitely not the best halo, I kinda like their other flavors but Tribeca is it for me really. I guess I'm at the point where I'm thinking is this as good as it gets? Is there really only one flavor I can always get along with and the rest are either so so or gross?

I was a huge juice junkie when I started vaping. And it's so true that most of them I ended up not liking. But it was so much fun to have an order of some mysterious juice heading my way! Lol. Eventually I got into DIY and went through the same with ordering all different flavorings to try even though most of them I don't care for. Lol. Luckily I've tamed down and have the flavorings I love most stocked up and make my own just the way I like it. But I still occasionally get the urge to try a flavor of premade juice from time to time to see if I'm missing out on something or to even get ideas, if I like it, on how to make it on my own. It's so much cheaper to make my own and I like it better than most anyways. It can still be expensive to Vape if you Vape a lot and get only premade juices.

One day I will venture into DIY....but a part of me thinks I won't appreciate it as much. You know...you can make your own sandwich and eat it just fine, but for some reason it always tastes better when someone else makes it for you......or at least that is true for me. :)

I think I would like DIY just to have total control. Far too many juices I've ordered pre-made were good, but would be even better if it had more flavor/less flavor....or such vendors like AiV that use proprietary PG/VG ratios....there are a couple of her juices that I can tell are high PG...which is fine, but I think would be better with more VG and some extra flavor to adjust to the higher VG. Especially her sweeter ones like Zombie Apocalypse and Black and White Cookie.

So Giant Vapes finally has Derp Sauce back in stock. Ordered another bottle of my fave. I asked them in the order comments to send me samples of anything they think I would like since I like Derp Sauce, that I'm always looking for a new fave, and that I always spread the word on ECF when I find something I like. They sent me an email saying they are sending me a few things they can't wait for me to try.

I will be back in the near future to talk about my new flavors..... :)
