Hello DIY community,

I have been reading information from this site for quite some time. This is the best forum to go to whenever I need to find something out. I only just now joined, but you guys have already been helping me for quite some time now and I wanted to say thank you all for sharing all your bits of information that has helped me figure out how to make worthwhile juice..

While i still have plenty of holes of my DIY game, ive come far enough to be much happier with DIY creations than i ever was buying juice from local shops.. It was the same story every week: go to vape shop, test out some flavors, THINK i found one Im going to love, purchase said juice, then usually before the end of the day i already was bored of the flavor, disappointed and mad that i just spent $18 bucks on a 30ml of garbage..

This went on for over a year.. I didnt even consider making it myself until i met a coworker who gave me a basic run down on DIY.. Told me where he orders supplies (wizardlabs), then once I checked out that website, so began my DIY journey.

Thank you all again for taking me from wondering why my first strawberry and custard mix tasted so gross, to being able to make some pretty decent juice. You are all highly appreciated.

Sorry if this is a little long for an introduction..

Respectfully,

Ken

Welcome to ecf. Glad you joined up.
You probably already know how and where to find the DIY forum but here is a link anyway.

DIY E-Liquid

Would love to hear about some of your mixes and what your preference is....

Thank you much.. Ok cool, after lots of trial and error, Ive had success with TFA (standard starting brand? Lol), Capella (more the creams than fruits like most people), and FA mostly..those 3 would be my primaries.. Then theres some really good FW flavorings but also some disturbingly bad and about the same situation with INW, some great, some terrible.. Zero success Flavorah, tried 5 flavorings, all disappointing.. May be due to not being an expert.. Im due for an order right now and after hearing some great things about Wonder Flavours Im probably goin to try some of theirs out..

The juices i like the most are basically usually a fruit or 2 or 3 (though still on the quest for the most fulfilling strawberry, tried almost all, hopeful for WF Fresh Strawberries to be a winner) with a choice of cream (CAP or TFA vanilla custard, FA cream fresh, FA vienna cream)and a choice of crusty type flavorings.. (Ie: FA apple pie, FA cookie, TFA pie crust, INW bisquit)

My opinion of the most dependable brand is definitely FA.. If Im going to gamble ordering a flavor I havent tried, I know if I go with FA Im usually not disappointed..

Yes, flavourart does some flavors extremely well.

If you are in the US, I can recommend some very excellent one shot type of flavor blends. Some of the vendors here are doing the blending for us and all we have to do is add nic, pg and vg and the % of their flavors.
If you are looking at Wonder Flavors get the Hazelnut and Cream. OMG are you in for a treat. I mix at 6%(stand alone) and its the best yet. I am sure it would play well with being mixed with other flavors, but for the moment I am just enjoying it as it is.

Yes I'm in the US, I had some financial setbacks to start the new year, so right now Im actually just trying to order a small amount of nicotine, vg and pg as a tie over for a little bit until things get back to normal, i did however just last week start to notice the one shots on ecigexpress and a couple of them did look appealing.. But yeah unfortunately Im looking for a bare minimum order at the moment which actually has proved to be quite frustrating.. I pretty much have a routine of ordering 100mg in a 120ml of nicotine, a gallon of vg and a 500ml of PG, then about 20 bucks worth of flavoring which puts me right at the minimum with wizardlabs to get free shipping ($65)..

The reason my current situation is frustrating is mostly because I got spoiled this whole time, always avoided shipping costs .. I been looking for other sites to order just a small amount of nic vg and pg, searched quite a bit..ecigexpress ended up with a higher shipping than ordering under $65 at wizardlabs, I think bullcityvapor didnt even carry nicotine (i think not positive) then i thought i found the place to go with: Gremlin DIY because their shipping was very low, but then I discovered they don't carry any nicotine lol.. So this all puts me right back where I started ordering from wizardlabs..

Anyways thanks for listening to my woes, lol, I know it was kinda long and silly of an issue

It's not silly when it comes to spending our hard earned cash....I always look for deals too.
Yea, BullCity gave up selling the nic because of the FDA garbage. Wizard labs is good too.

If/when you have time look at Onestopdiy shop....they gave up selling nic also, but have some wonderful flavors and blends that are one shots. discount codes for them are JFK and ECF. I think they both give around an 11% discount.

Anyway, loads of members here just love their flavors and blends and they are so easy.......
