Well, that certainly makes you a good friend! I actually started sub-ohming at 12mg, and quickly moved down. As did my wife.

There are some flavors that benefit from an extra boost, depending on taste buds. It just depends on the person. Just keep in mind that Scott will definitely work with you as far as flavoring goes, you just gotta ask him. Super great guy to deal with.

Well if he could ship my order by tomorrow it would be great. ITC, vape Wild, and MBV, as well as all the places that I've ordered equipment from are so quick. Usually I get orders within 2 days, or 3 at the latest. CJMR is losing a lot of business cuz of his 2 weeks from ordering to receiving. I would have ordered from them today instead.

That was fast! My order ended up shipping yesterday. I knew that was a possibility if they were a west coast operation. Hopefully they didn't rush to get it out.

I'll be getting my juice on Monday. I love the customer service at these small vaping establishments. I don't think I'll have 7 days to steep, so I hope they're vapeable foob or don't react too badly to hot water baths. It'll probably be the Nutter Butter or PB&J that need to be vapeable quickly.

CCC, Dee's Bees, and Razberry Limeade are for me, so I can wait til whenever.

IMO, The RazLimeade needs 24-48 hrs with the stopper out, breathing, then they all need 7 days from birth.[1] My Razz part was Very out front at first.

Butter Nutter will be fine FOOB, just really peanut heavy. Just take a good sniff first, man will it smell good.

[1] Marimba that many other places will take 3 days or so to actually get the order out the door then it wallers around in the mails until it stumbles into it's destination. My Ohm's orders are Routinely mixed, mailed and in my mailbox within 48 hrs of me placing the order and we are on opposite ends of the country. A week wait for Ohm's is like the usual "processing" time for other mixers.

Thanks Bruce, I think I'll give my vape wild juice one last chance before I put it away for another month. I know I should steep my juices at least a week, and probably two in most cases, but unfortunately I'm running low on time this time.

I gave my friend his vape gear this past weekend. He was drunk, but he liked the only 6mg juice I had on hand, which is ITC's Custard #3. It's a pleasant vape, but it's kinda bland because all u taste is vanilla.

Is Butter Nutter the only one that's gonna be vapeable FOOB? I was hoping the PB&J one would be too. Dee's Bees is one I'd really like to keep for myself if it's any good. :p

None of them are horrible FOOB, the Raz in the RazLime-ade is just going to REALLY be out there FOOB. It settles down in a week to two.

I have asked but did not get any answer from Scott as to if the flavors in his PBJ are the same as in Butter Nutter and Strawberry Shortcake. I can say that the Strawberry Shortcake has the same kind of yellow tinge to it that the CCS has that also has Strawberry in it. The PBJ should be fine FOOB though I might expect the PB to Really be out there and die down a bit in a week or two. My probably #1 Ohms now is my own mix of Strawberry Shortcake and Butter Nutter for my own PBJ.

I've never tried Dee's Bee's, but from the description I think it should be fine FOOB.

Generally from what I've seen so far with them, a 2 or more flavor flavor will arrive with one flavor dominating. At about 10 days to 2 weeks, that dominant flavor will recede or start to be equaled by the other flavor. Only a couple of the pure fruit flavors, IMO, Really Needed a week to "calm down" some.

Thanks again. I received my ejuices today. They sent me a 10ml trial bottle of the banana fosters that I requested. 3 of the bottles smell very similar, but I guess it's cuz 3 of them have peanut butter in them. The Raz Limeade smells great, but that doesn't mean much. The MBV keylime smelled great too, but tasted like cleaning products.

I think I'll give them til tomorrow or Wednesday before I try any of them. I'm steeping caps off right now. Will probably leave them off overnight. It was pretty hot today in the mailbox, so maybe they got a little heat steep as well.

Just received my latest 300ml of Ohm's Vapes. They changed their bottles again. These are a little wider, but a little more stout with black caps instead of white.

And this was the first time they didn't throw in a 10ml sample :( I'm a little disappointed, but Ohm's Vapes was the only vendor that I ever have received free samples from before so I can't complain. It won't stop me from ordering from them in the future, just something different.

I have read your reveiws Jeff, they seem pretty right on to me.

Go to Ohm's Faceplant page and send Scott a Backchannel message offering to review some of the new flavors for him. You might want to mention that you've reviewed a lot of his here.

I suspect he will tighten you right up with some samples.

I have 4 new flavors waiting their first week.[1] Also a Key Lime Pie sample that I specifically requested. It Smells Dead On to KLP. (We've had a KL tree in our yard. I'm well acquainted with KLP.)

[1] I really didn't want to know much about them ahead of time and I can barely read Scott's writing, but they look like; Gum Bocn(?), Lem(on?)Head, Dragons Blood, Berry Shake and my requested KLP.

I got a 10ml sample, but it was probably because it was my first order and I had requested a sample in the comments section.

Anyways, so after receiving my juice on Monday, I decided to try out some flavors, knowing that all fresh e-juices need steeping to taste their best.

I think I shoulda passed on the Butter Nutter as it's really just a single flavor that I'd probably get tired of pretty quickly, kind of like ITC Custard #3. Because of this, I didn't try it yet. You guys told me the Razberry Limeade would probably be too intense for at least a week, so I passed on that. Almost tried Bees Knees, but will probably try that soon. I digress....

First flavor I tried was PB&J. I'm realizing based on my experience with this juice, and the Peanut Butter Bonanza I got from VW, that peanut butter flavors probably need a good steep before they get any good. I tasted some strawberry jelly, but both flavors were equally muted.

I was too lazy to completely rebuild my coil, so I just washed out my tank, quickly rewicked, and went right into the CCS (chocolate covered strawberry). I'm not tasting much of anything except the strawberry right now (and remnants of PB), but the strawberry is a pretty good one. It tastes natural compared to other e-juice vendors where the fruits sometimes taste chemically or like candy, and I enjoyed vaping a little of it.

Not much more to say for now. But I felt it was worth a first impression post because neither of the juices had any funny aftertaste or tasted chemically despite being fresh and not steeped. That's a huge plus in my book, as competitors like MBV and Vape Wild have made me gag in the past from unsteeped juice.

I look forward to trying these with a little more steep time. I'll probably try the Bees Knees tomorrow. For now, I'm liking the initial flavors and hope they get stronger as they age. So a tentative thumbs up in my book.

P.S. The juices were 50/50 6mg. The trials are being done in a rebuilt mini protank with Japanese cotton wick. I don't want to try a bunch of it in my kayfun or subtank until I know they're ready.

After trying ITCV SL v2 with extra flavor I thought I might never like Strawberry again. Unbelievably nasty heavy soapy perfume taste. It literally made me gag. Absolutely unvapable but ready for this, JUST for 2 weeks. I would have bet $100 that juice would Never be any good but I would have been wrong. At 2 weeks the Alcohol or whatever the hell The Nasty was went away and it was a pretty good juice after all. I would NEVER have thunked it. ;)

Ohm's Strawberry IS very nice, you're right, a natural tasting Strawberry.

I haven't had Any Ohm's that was Bad FOOB, just the fruits mainly need to rest a week to calm down a little.

I am beginning to think with most Ohm's you are pretty safe asking for extra flavor on the first order Unless you Really don't like stronger flavors. The REformulated Blue Moo is one of the few I wouldn't bother asking for extra flavor with.

The New Moo has a bit more Blueberry that last longer (steep) than the original recipe. Maybe a bit less of the Cream flavor but also not quite as Brown at the 4 week point, that should make it easier on coils.

i was never fond of the spoonlickers. The V2's strawberry was way too in your face, and that was without the flavor boost. It smelled like puke too. It did get better for me after a month though. I could probably vape it if I really wanted to.

Has anyone ever tried the hot water bath with Ohm's juices? I guess I can wait, but I'd like to pick the bottle to give to my friend by this weekend.

Perhaps I didn't shake the bottle enough or something, but I'm getting virtually no flavor out of my CCC right now. I drained, rewicked, and rebuilt to try and not contaminate the juice any more, but the strong strawberry flavor I had is gone now.

I have decided that for me, the risks of much heat at all (degrading of flavor and nic) isn't worth the advantage of being easier to shake.

I will open the package and leave it in the hot car for a couple hours before bringing it in to shake. I doubt if the inside of the package gets to 120F. I don't know what I'll do when we get our couple months of "winter" and the car doesn't get hot inside.

CCS (I think that's what you meant) is weird for me. Jeff gets a lot of Chocolate. I don't and the longer it steeps, for me, the weaker the chocolate gets. It's a little hard at a month now to figure out What the flavors in it are, it tastes fine, just neither flavor is real distinct for me. Plus, it looks like thick pee.

I have a bottle of Cookies and Cream steeping that I asked for extra flavor in, Especially extra Chocolate. I also told Scott that if it wasn't Much more chocolaty, then I probably wouldn't reorder any of his Chocolates until he finishes work on the Super Chocky he's working on.
