ok... predicament. i have lowered the nicotine on my last few orders from 24 originally, now down to 12. i still have quite a bit of juice left that is 24 but when i try to vape it now, it tastes way too harsh. i just tried some blue moo i got in may so it's plenty steeped, but it's 24 mg nic and burns my throat something awful. is there some way i can cut it, like maybe add some lower nic whipped cream or something? i am open to suggestions, as i HATE to waste juice. thanks :)

Just get the same volume of the same flavor in 0nic then mix the two ... taadaaa 12 mg juice

Ohhh!! I sold a lot of my juice. I spent last night and this morning making orders :) hubby will have a lot of choices now. He's been doing real good on the 100%vg but its thick so I'm gonna get the 70vg/30 distilled h20

So this week I will get 2 orders from MBV :)

wouldn't it be faster to put a few drops of distilled water in the bottle? Not all the max VG juices are the same viscosity.. if I need to, I just put a coupla drops in my clearo.. T3.. whatever.. and I use tap water. We have a well and a killer filtration system

Tucson, it's a dry heat
I really like the 70/30 mix of VG/distilled water from MBV. Maybe I'm too lazy to mess with diluting regular VG. I like that it's done for me and it's not too thick. It mixes well with my DIY stuff - I have a big bottle of unflavored 70/30 VG (need another actually!)

I took the advise given and had some juice and a brand spanking new mod from mbv sent to my companies warehouse, hopefully I can get by and pick it up by the weekend. Any way to short cut the steep time? I got a cinnamon roll and a whipped cream. Currently already have a pumpkin pie spice (another vendor) on hand thats gtg.

you have really accomplished something, cause i have never tasted a tobacco juice i like. but i have found hardly any other flavors i haven't liked. :)

Have you tried naturally extracted tobaccos? I went through a long list of 'fake' tobacco flavors from various vendors and really didn't like any of them. They mostly tasted a bit bitter/sour... 'pungent' I guess. And 'tobacco' would not be in my description of the flavor. I tried a NET from HHV... Legend and Dragon's Fire. Both were light years better than any of the fauxbaccos I've tried up to that point. Open the bottle, take a sniff and you get the aroma of a fine, sweet tobacco... there was no mistaking that smell.

All it took was 1 puff and I ordered a large bottle of Legend from HHV and retired the fauxbaccos....

to be honest, i don't know. they could have all been faux flavors for all i know, but i really don't need tobacco flavor to make me happy. plenty of other more pleasant flavors for me :)

i use a heated ultrasonic cleaner to speed steep my juice, but it you don't have that, you can try the following:

take tops off bottles and put in a microwavable container filled with enough water so the juice bottles don't float. put the container, bottles immersed in water, into the microwave for a minute. then vigorously shake the bottles, zap again for another minute. shake them again. do this as many times as you want, taking care water doesn't boil over sides of container. this is the process i used before i got my US

Hangsen RY1 is the most accurate cigg tobacco flavor if you're interested.
It's excellent for DIY but I quit tobacco :vapor:

even more reason to look forward to the weekend! Those two flavors.... are good choices.. pretty darn good out of the mail box. (probably go well together too)
When you fill them, while you're away, just leave the tops off for a couple days.. give em a good shake when you can. I vape Whipped cream the day it arrives, although it does get better with age.

Interestingly enough, I felt the same way until recently. When I quit smoking, I said "no need for tobacco flavors", and didn't try even one from October of last year, when I quit, until a few weeks ago, when I decided to give it a try. The ones that I have tried are more like a graham cracker-y, flavored, caramel and vanilla type. They have grown on me a lot. Now that I am over 9 months removed from smoking (holy crap !!!!), I realize that I can enjoy the tobacco flavors without thinking of it the same way.

To each their own, but I wanted to chime in with my experiences.

Happy Monday, fellow MBV groupies!

I think maybe I've turned a corner with my creeping crud. Got a good night's sleep for the first time in a long time and feel generally better today. Tastebuds are still off, but hopefully that will be next! Managed to get out last night and harvest some from my garden. It is completely overrun with weeds from all the rain we've gotten, but I got a whole wagonload of stuff from it. :laugh: I've got to get my .... back out there more often.

Existing on Johnny Chimpo since my Sticky Bun is gone. Man, now I wanna grab some whipped cream. I need a vaping sugar daddy. :p

I am loving the number of fellow nerds in this thread. If this were school, this would definitely be the nerd's table in the lunchroom, which is right where I belong!

I've been thinking about grabbing some NET juices and giving them a shot. I don't necessarily NEED the tobacco flavoring, but I am intrigued by everyone's descriptions. Plus, I am a big enough nerd that I am drawn to juices with cool names. Anything with dragon in the name absolutely has to be given a shot. Star Wars character? Yes, I'll try that flavor....haha Does anyone else do that? (And it seems that the absolute coolest names are always assigned to tobacco flavored juices. Why is that?)

So while making my daughter breakfast this morning I managed to trow my neck out, stopped by the clinic on base and got a refill on my valium script. I go down to the man cave and grab my dripper, a few juices, and heat pad.

You know your way out of sorts when your too lazy to clean your dripper between flavors. So from yellow cake->razzleberry not to bad
from yellow cake->razzleberry->banana cream pie not so good. I suppose I should get off my but and clean it but I think I am just going to power through. Slipped disks suck!

Awww man, feel better soon. :(

I could see how yellow cake (yum!) would be great with a berry flavor, but yeah....then on to banana cream? Not so much. :laugh:

So we should start a running wish list. I want a sugar daddy and you want a french maid to clean your gear between flavors. That's not too much to ask!

The more clever/interesting the name the more apt I am to buy it. Why buy blackberry cobbler when you can get Twas Brillig.
