First off. I started making my own juice about 3 weeks ago. I bought vg and pg that are the essential brand. Got a nice bottle of nic. Bought all fruit and fruit candy flavors. I got the FA flavors. I use the e liquid calculator app. Each flavor was recommended 2%-5 I started with 2 and next batch went to 3. It taste okay. But somehow a little off. So I tried mix matching flavor with 2 and 2 percent. Still taste a little off even after 1 week steep. My questions are maybe its my vg pg that taste a little bland. I use 50 50 btw. Maybe you could share a some good recipes for fruit for a 30ml bottle. What's the different from e liquid and ejuice? Any feedback, tips recommendations are appriciated

Welcome to ecf

Glad to see you are prepared to DIY. I use essential depot all the time. Taste fine to me.

What flavors are you using?

Different flavor makers have their own 'versions' of how they think a flavor should taste.

I'm pretty new. I don't know what ohm is. You have to dumb it down for me-.- I use a dripper if that helps

Cool.

Do you vape from mouth to lung or direct to lung hits? And other than your dripper what kind of mod are you using.

Sub ohm is less than 1.0 ohms.

between here and there
The flavor apprentice and some are flavor arts lol
I asked this because in terms of % used makes a huge difference.
FlavourArt is very concentrated and you would use less than the flavor apprentice.

Strawberry ripe if mixing with another flavor......start at around 7% and the other flavor at around 3%.

The recommended was 2-5 percent. So I figured don't go above 5 total. I used 2 percent of both flavors
Ok. I am just using my own experience with most of the flavors you listed. It is not the pg/vg that is the problem. They are suppose to be tasteless for both with a little sweetness in the vg.

If you don't want to use flavoring above 5% then I suggest you stick strickly with FlavourArt or go with Inwera flavoring.

Umm. Define regulated.. Reuleaux 200s

It's regulated by a chip opposed to a mechanical mod. YouR R200s is regulated.

VG and PG are both dilutants. The PG carries the flavor and gives you that throat hit. VG makes the Vapor clouds. So let's start there. I would adjust you VG/PG ratio to start with. At least 70/30. You could also add some enhancers like sweeteners or Sour to make the fruits pop a little more.

As your flavor types increase over time so will your recipes and your ability to layer flavors to get that all day vape that you want.

Fruits and fruit candies are limited a bit. I would add some creams, maybe a custard and some vanilla to your next order. Also Hard Candy. Any fruit with Hard Candy gives you a Jolly Rancher type vape.
