This is a Newbie review for the Liquidbarn.com DIY E-juice kit.
I am new to vaping I started vaping/quit smoking on 8/29/2015. I decided to try my hand in DIY
Just for fun but I was a little intimidated as it seemed complicated to do. I watched a lot of videos, read reviews & talked to a lot of people so I decided to try it. I went with this kit for a few reasons.
1) Ingredients
2) Price
3) Amount of E-juice it will make
4) has more equipment than you will need

-1ml Luer-slip Syringe (10x)
-15ml LDPE eLiquid Bottle (10x)
-Electric eLiquid Mixer
Cost is $63.99USD W/O Nic.
$73.99USD W/ Nic (Kit I Purchased)
Shipping cost was $8.00
I did submit a discount code that took off 20%
final cost to my door was $67.19 USD
This kit states it will make up to 1400ML of E-juice
I believe with the Nic it will be very close to that & will be approx 250Ml less without the Nic
Ok If you have read enough & deciding to skim the review I will get straight to the point
This is a great kit for the price & if you are completely new to DIY
I highly recommend it
I had contacted Liquid Barn (as I did with other places & will say Liquid barn was the ONLY one to reply back to me & fast) because I was green as green could be & did not know exactly what I needed as far as pg vs Vg
Bobby guided me through what I should order
Nic comes in Vg & Pg
Flavors are Vg
All their liquids are USP Kosher grade & I don't think I found one flavor that contained Diacetyl.
They provide on their site MSDS & COA data for all their liquids
Shipping took just about a week from purchase & was shipped the same day
this was also shipped from the west coast to East coast (not bad ) can be quicker if you want to spend more on shipping
Kit was very well packaged. All liquids were shrink wrapped in the boxes then a LOT of packaging peanuts surrounded the 3 boxes
I made 3 bottles of E-juice this weekend (2) 80Vg/20PG & (1)70Vg/30PG all with 3Mg Nic. I downloaded an E-juice calculator app on my Droid phone (easier than the mat provided) It was a breeze to make. All the flavors smell real good & is a trial & error for how much flavor to use. I like a real full flavor so I made them at 10% the 3 bottles I made were Green Apple, Strawberry cream & a tropical mix (pineapple, Banana & coconut milk) the 10% mixes tasted great even with out steeping with the exception of the green Apple (10% is to strong)
these are the flavors I ordered
Flavor 1: Banana
Flavor 2: Blue Raspberry
Flavor 3: Green Apple
Flavor 4: Coconut Milk
Flavor 5: Cream
Flavor 6: Honey Dew
Flavor 7: Pineapple
Flavor 8: Pink Lemonade
Flavor 9: Vanilla Ice Cream
Flavor 10: Strawberry
Final thoughts
Great kit as far as kits go this is the best bang for your buck. Flavors are very good (Subjective as everyone's tastes are different) for a greenhorn like me this kit was so simple to use (with the help of the calculator app)
I will say the downfall of the Liquid Barn kit is the lack of flavor choices Currently 27 flavors total & the kit only comes with 10 small 15Ml bottles would have liked a couple 30Ml bottles
So again anyone getting into DIY & is intimidated like I was I highly recommend this kit & don't hesitate to contact the Liquid barn they will help guide you through & set you up with your needs
This is a pic of the complete kit as I received it (other than the larger E-juice bottles those were mine) Kit comes with (10)15ml Bottle
