So I ordered a bunch of 48mg unflavored from Drew, and got some menthol crystals from MWV, and created my very first e-juice on my very own. I call it:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHOLYFUKMYBRAIN Menthol, 14mg

See, I probably should have done some investigation into exactly how strong menthol crystals are. The whole eyes watering before I took the first puff thing probably should have been a clue. It's honestly not that bad. My sinuses have never been this clear.

Just how many crystals did you put in there? (I'm laughing my ... off (with you, not at you))

Well, like a dumbass, and since I was only doing menthol, and I was using that awesome php juice calculator up on todmuller.com, I figured I needed bout 10 crystals...... for 3.6ml (thanks for the awesome glass bottles MWV!) of juice. I've fixed it, and now it's not so bad, but I was hallucinating christmas trees and reindeer and santa claus.

EDIT: Doing some quick napkin math, I've discovered that was about 9 crystals too many.

Welcome to the world of DIY juices. My first batch of menthol was also a disaster that felt like I was vaping this:

As tempting as that pix is - I think I'll stick with my current avatar...

Zofryer - glad that you're still with us - never mind about the christmas trees, what you have to worry about is the tinsel.....

Tried menthol a while back and this helped:
FS Menthol Crystals - freshsmoking.com

That worked well, but I threw out about 20ml of "crappuccino" on one DIY session. Kept adding some of this and that and that simply doesn't work. I couldn't get the lorann's keoke coffee to show up at all.

Funny story though Zofryer... thanks for posting.
