Not impressed at all. Maybe 20% Was good. I wont order again.

I like the cucumber mint.
What flavors did you try? Did you steep them & try them again?

My next batch will be waiting in the mailbox when I get home from work.
I ordered 2 favorites in 50mL Hawk Sauce & Root Beer along with trying 4 new ones in 30mL Absinthe, Blue Ice, Lightspeed & Thug juice
with Coumarin Pipe as my freebie to put in the King E-Pipe I won.

I haven't had much luck with MBV. On the other hand, I've had even less luck with all but one other vendor. :( I think I must have weird tastebuds or something.

My clear favorite from MBV is 'Solar Flare'. I'm not normally a menthol/mint or citrus but this one hits the spot for some reason. It's particularly good as a palate cleanser between other juices. It's in my daily rotation. 18mg, 50/50 blend. Tastes great right out of the bottle.

My second-favorite would be 'Cinnamon Roll' which I prefer to 'Sticky Bun'. I suspect I'm in the minority with that preference but CB tastes cleaner somehow.

'Prickly Pear' was a sample - never would have thought to order it - but it's quite tasty. Not an every day vape but pleasant. 'Hazelnut' is also quite good as is 'White Out'.

I liked neither 'Mudslide' or 'Cookies and Cream'. Or 'Pooh'. And their 'RY4' is probably the worst thing I've ever tasted.
 
Whoop-whoop! Just got my first order from MBV!
I got several, but I have only opened :
Cinnamon Roll 50/50 6mg 1x shot: Straight out of the mail, into an ARO Pyrex tank, VV set at 3.6, Yummy!!!
I am tickled, and a happy camper. Taste great, and I imagine it will taste better as it matures. I am impressed. I also ordered banana's gone nuts, caramel candy and Thug juice for my hubby. Really, I'm impressed with the amount of taste, fresh out of the mail in 50/50.
I will come back when I've tried the others!!!

My latest batch. I ordered 9/11 & in my mailbox on 9/13 with free shipping.
I got 2 favorites in 50mL Hawk Sauce & Root Beer along with trying 4 new ones in 30mL Absinthe, Blue Ice, Lightspeed & Thug Juice with Coumarin Pipe as my freebie.
All 24mg 50/50 & +2 shots (except no shots on freebies, still wish we could get them on freebies).
All VOA (could be the 4 to 5 hours they sat in my hot mailbox) vaped on Vamo V3 @ 8W to 9W in 2.4ohm T3s (except Lightspeed in 1.8 ohm Protank II)
Hawk Sauce & Root Beer are still great :)
Absinthe I never drank any, but thought I would try this being a fan of anis, root beer & black licorice. I like it. It's smoother & mellower than the root beer and very tasty. I'll be getting more of this.
Lightspeed is a very refreshing citrus vape. I like it a lot. Shake this often as essential oils float to top. I'll be getting more of this.
Blue Ice & Thug Juice have way too much menthol for my taste at this time. I'm hoping some flavor other than the menthol develops with steeping. Verdict withheld at this time.
Coumarin Pipe is a flavorful sweet tobacco that I like and is so far my favorite MBV tobacco. I have to have a tobacco to vape when I drink beer so I'll keep trying different ones with my freebies, but so far this is the best.

I am so enjoying reading all these posts on people's opinion on the different e-juices. My 1st order from Mt Baker came in this afternoon. My taste is all messed up right now, all the flavors are starting to taste the same after vaping so many different juices these past few weeks. I understand that is very common for new vapers.

I have had the MB juices in my ultrasonic cleaner off and on for a couple hours. I did try the hawk sauce, cinnamon roll and banana nut bread before I put then. They need more time. Many of us that are new to vaping really count on the more experienced vapers to steer us in the right direction. We don't have a clue as to what flavors are out there and what we might like. Not everyone has the same taste but your opinions give us a place to start and maybe narrow down what might work for us. Thanks

I got 50\50 24 mg of nic

I haven't messed with higher vg than 35 but folks say higher will take longer to steep.
Each shot also takes longer to steep.
I'd guess it won't be near ready for at least two weeks.

Anyone with experience with closer to Gena's ratio and shots chip in any advice here?

I ordered Moo juice it came in Monday. It doesn't have very much flavor and I ordered 3 flavor shots. When it steeps will it get more flavor?

I vape 50/50, but I don't order any juices above 1 flavor shot...the question depends on your palate. I don't seem to need any flavor shots, but I can say that too many flavor shots can kill the flavor in the juice. I realize that it seems counterintuitive, but it is true...there is a point where there is simply too much flavoring in the juice.

I recommend letting it steep for at least a week and try it again. If the flavor hasn't improved, it will likely not improve more beyond that. Some flavors, like tobaccos, can require a month's steep but I haven't heard of the Moos requiring a lengthy steep. If you decide it isn't any better with a lengthy steep, I think it is worth adding some unflavored to it and trying it again (adding "fresh" unflavored to a steeped juice should not require more steeping. A good shake-to-mix should be all that is needed). HTH :)

Hey all, thought I'd add my .02 to this thread as well. None of my juices have nicotine in them.

Wild Cherry 50/50. *
I give this one star. It was pretty bad when I got it, and it got a hair better. I don't know why, but it just tastes bad. I'm kinda disappointed, because I really wanted to find a good black cherry flavor. I've let it steep, even with the bottle open in the dark for several days.

Banana 50/50 ****
This was a free sample. Wow. All I have to say is this tastes EXACTLY like eating a banana now and later. Amazing!

Absinthe 50/50
Another free sample. I really dislike black licorice flavor. That's what this is. Gross. I can't even stand thinking about the smell. So I'm not going to judge this one.

Lemon Drop 50/50*
I really wanted to find a nice lemon flavor.... This isn't it. It tastes exactly like.... Lemon dish soap. Nice and floraly. The floral bits lessen with time, but not enough for me to like it.

Arnold Palmer 50/50 **
This has the same floral lemon taste. Except it has a hint of black tea to it. Still nothing that I would order again. I thought this would be really good as well.

Peach rings 50/50 ***
This flavor is pretty good. It tastes just like the peach ring candies. Except I can't vape this for very long because it's too sweet. But it's nice to have a little of.

Sugar cookie ****
This is a nice flavor. I ordered from MBV when I was hungry once, and you can probably tell what I ordered. It's a nice vanilla flavor that tastes like fresh cookies out of the oven.

Vanilla cupcake ****
Another great vanilla flavor. Lighter than Sugar cookie in color and flavor.

Cinnamon roll ***
This flavor would be amazing if they just laid off the cinnamon a hair and had more icing flavor. It tastes just like the gooey cinnamon part between the rolls of your mom's home made cinnamon roll, but with a lot of cinnamon. I think it just needs a tweak then it will be great.

Quick question you guys. How many percentage point does an extra shot add to the amount of flavorings in a liquid. I am trying to decide how many shots to add to a tobacco flavor without over doing it. Thanks in advance for your answers.

I just posted this in the main MBV thread:

The pg will go up and the nic will go down when you add flavoring. Flavoring is almost always in pg.

I make my premix at 20.5mg 67/33 to give me approximately 17.9mg 71/29 @12.5% I call it 18mg 70/30

I add 4 ml flavor to 28ml of premix to get my 12.5%. or 1+7, 2+14, 3+21....
1 wanted my Honeydew & Cantaloupe juices a bit milder so I made it at 12% (3 + 22)

I like MBV 80/20 +1, my mix is very close to that but a little stronger flavor.
I tried MBV 65/35 +2 and I think mine's closer to that.
I order 65/35 +2 now. I like it better than 80/20 +1 but it's very close.
I get my freebies at 80/20 so the slightly higher pg can carry the +0 flavor better.

I have ~36 30ml amber and blue glass bottles with droppers.
6 at 15ml, 6 at 60ml & about 20 at 120ml (most of the 120s are nic storage)
they all hold a few more ml than they're rated for. I use mostly 30s for making juice and sometimes 60s.

Start small with your first mixes at least until you find what tastes best for you. YMWV

My wife and her friend like MBV East Coast Tobacco at 24mg 80/20 13.5%
They're using refilled Green Smoke cartos that mute flavor so YMMV

I don't use tobacco flavors myself but Hangsen RY1 @ 2.8% is considered the most accurate American cigg flavor

Thanks mowgli, but could you help me decipher all that info? Let's say I ordered East Coast tobacco 80/20 12mg with an extra shot. If the flavor turns out to be too much, how much pg would I need to add in order to bring it back to one flavor shot. I know the mg's will go down, but I can adjust for that.

I think you meant to bring it down to no flavor shots.
They say they start with 10% and each shot is an additional 2%
I don't think it's that precise and must compensate for different pg/vg ratios.

It won't take very much to change the flavor and I'd say don't worry about adjusting it until it's steeped for weeks.
If you need to adjust use a small sample, say 2-3 ml and add drops until you hit it.
