Inconsistance taste on BIG batch DIY eliquid

[zack_munningham]

In post # 3 i think i stated the obvious , if you make sure you follow the exact procedure and measurements of the original recipe it is not possible to have it come out differently .

There has to be some difference for this issue to happen , there is no other possible way it can happen if you did the identical thing was my point . This is just basic common sense to me but i'll move on , i did my best .

I did follow the exact same recipe + replaced all syringes and sterile my measuring cylinder with hot boiling water.

I screenshot my formula on my phone to keep as a backup..i know mayb one day i might 'accidently' alter any % and a copy of an original formula will come in handy.

I followed all ingredients accordingly but still cant get it right with larger batch.

Last time,i had a very bad jynx when i mistakenly bought the wrong VG.(the one that smells coconut and smells like perfume)

A single drop of that VG can ruin not just 30ml liquid,in fact,i learnt it hard way when it affects the whole litre..funnily,it did not effect any of my fruity flavor.but with creamy juice,that 'vg' really a nightmare (even less than a single drop).

It took me a lot of trial and error + cash until i soon realized it was the vg.any container that i used with the 'vg',no matter how hard i tried to clean it,it will still ruin my liquid.

All liquid will turn to light yellowish colour and will stop at that stage. It seems like the 'mixing' process will stop by force and i can do nothing about it.

Unless if i can vape perfume,then i csn survive..

Just to post some updates..

I split my 1L to 200ml in a container and bought a stirrer magnet with a DIY stirrer.

I ran a test by continuously stirring my 200ml (1L batch) while keeping the other 200ml batch untouched.

After 3days,i placed the 200ml(1L) under my fridge to keep it warm while steeping. Today,ive tested it.

Thanks Lord..the 200ml (1L) taste GOOD..BUT,the richness is slightly lesser than the 30ml.the colour slightly darker.

After a few research + study + understanding,these are what i can come out with :

Nicotine : this affect the taste and the final product colour of my juice. Even tho i used to order from the same supplier,different batch sometimes have different liquid colour when i received them. (The perfect 30ml uses darker nicotine colour and this 1L uses light yellow)

Flavoring : ive contcted the supplier of my flavoring.it seems that the flavoring also have similar issue like nicotine. (Not all flavor but a few of them). The one that i used for my 1L were also yellowish colour,unlike the one i used for the perfect 30ml which was darker + they also smells like perfume & articial. (Proper steeping & breathing help to tame this issue). They were the same flavor BUT different batch. Not a good thing tho.

Steeping : as what being mentioned earlier,the larger the quantity the longer the steeping process. YES, im now definitely agree with this. Since it took me a while before i decided to continue to stir my 1L batch,the mixing process were already in the progress BUT 'unfinished' due to the large quantity ('unfinished' when i tried them). In between the 'steeping' period while figuring out my issue,this MAY have affect how this liquid and molecules reacts towards each other since it was untouched and not properly handle (e.g stir,shake or etc) and only resume its process when i decided to start the stirring on my diy stirrer.

Breathing : my container has a large neck size and i dont breath them more than 6hours. Somehow i manage to tame the perfume smells with heat.by placing them under the fridge.this is somehow help to blend those flavors and help with the perfume smell too.

Thank you guys for helping me out and keep on encouraging. I really appreciate all tips,suggestions and opinions from you guys.

I hope this reply can help others to sort their problems or solve similar issue.
