OMG. So much sadness in mbv'ers today :( I'm sorry everyone who's having a rough patch :( All of the above are probably while I'm antisocial and don't really interact with more than like 2 people in real life (outside of work).

now I feel guilty about being happy that my juice came a day early. QUICK EVERYONE GO SNIFF YOUR JUICES. It makes me happy when they smell yummy.

The general consensus in the DIY threads is that 125° F is low enough to not effect the nicotine.

:facepalm::facepalm::facepalm:

doh! that was one thing i hadn't even thought about. which is kinda why i was asking! so: :thumbs:

You could, must make sure the bottle you use are heavy duty glass, like the amber glass bottles, but you really don't need to boil them, just get them up to a temp of about 120 - 130, don't need to get any higher then that and just let them sit until the water gets to room temp, then shake them up. I'm sure someone else responded, but I am not going to go ahead of the posts, thankfully there are only 5 pages for me to catch up on since I was last on.

ya, already checked out my containers. juice is half way up the sides, i put the same water level in, heated it up, now they are sitting.

Eh, I suck at DIY :/ I was testing out a Caramel Apple DIY and it is nasty... I should stick to tried and true MBV recipes and stop wasting flavor, PG/VG, and cleaning bottles after I dump it :p

i'm using the Keep It Simple Stupid method, except in my case it's Keep It Very Simple Stupid!

going by what...Mowgli-Mowgli-Mowgli..gave as a general MBV recipe.

6.5 mil dulce de leche base, 0.5 MTS Vape Wizard and 43mil 80/20 premix nic juice

to doctor my root beer, i just dumped both bottles together and added 2 mil root beer base and 1 mil koolada. i can play with it i it needs it.

i did 2 MFS Tobaccos with 3mil flavoring, 0.5 Vape Wizard and 0.5 MFS Tobacco concentrate. easy to adjust if i need to.

THEN, i took 5 MBV Tobacco flavors that i wasn't to fond of (originally 50 mil each) and added .5 mil Vape Wizard and .5 MFS Tobacco to each. cheap fix if it works, nothing lost if it doesn't. still room to adjust. (just wish i had more glass)

interesting morning. :matrix:

if anyone is interested in why we are so susceptible to cancer as of late, there's a very interesting video, at the end of this link, about Vitamins K2, D & A. (it's 83 minutes, but very interesting)

my heart is breaking so many times listening to you guys today. my family has not escaped the ravages of cancer, both my parental units died of it. but we were not close, unfortunately. i somehow envy your stories, even tho they ended sadly. :cry:

My father and I have not been close at all for many, many years, but over the past 4 or 5 years he had changed quite a bit and with all of his issues and his reaching out has made me put the past aside and now I have to check on him every week, he's going on 83 years old now and I worry all the time when I don't hear from him in a week.

If you want some just let me know and I'll put it back for you until you can get it.

Thank you, but I'm fine! It's just one of those things, when you have the ability to get something you don't give it a second thought, but when you don't have the ability you notice things a bit more I guess and that sucks! lol Thanks to this thread I had gotten things I never thought I would and liked them, some more than others of course and the sad part is that ones I wasn't sure I would like, I find that I do and had only gotten a small bottle of it! But isn't that the way it always works... :closedeyes:

good for you, dear. i regret that i never reconciled with mine, but there were (to me) unforgivable things done earlier in life. but they tried to reach out later and i refused. i am a bad daughter, but it's very hard to forgive some stuff, ya know? anyway, back to vaping pb and get razzled.

Can anyone else comment on their experience with the MBV peach flavors? I know they may need steeping time, but after a week and a half all the peach flavors have a cough syrup type taste. Will this improve with time? or is it just one of those flavors at MBV that doesn't ever come out that well?

So I ordered a Pyrex Vivi nova tank to use exclusively with my MBV cinnamon hot tamale and after a few minutes started to smell and taste burnt plastic. I was so confused because I knew it was a Pyrex tank. Looked at it closely and the inside of the drip tip was melting. Arghhh, why would thy put a plastic drip tip on a Pyrex tank. Growing pains.

Vape on my friends.

I've only tried the Peach....straight peach.....and it's very strong. I think I ordered it way back when at 12mg., 50/50 with 2 flavor shots. It did not need the flavor shots. I've mixed it in some bakery flavors, trying to get a realistic peach cobbler, but have just never gotten there. I have a few ml. left in my bottle and it really never got to real peach for me....hope that helps.

Condolences to everyone with lost or losing loved ones :cry:
The world always seems colder when our loved ones move on.
It always brings me closer to who's left and makes me appreciate my days left more.


I have one of those adapters on the way for my Vision Victory 5ml clearo.
(Scheduled Delivery Day: September 17, 2013 D'OH!)


Exactly how do you semi-permanently install it? Just crank it all the way down?

Got vapemail w/adapter today yay.
The virgin 510 threads on my Vamos are so snug that no cranking, loc-tite or plumbers' tape is necessary.
I just cranked it in enough to make contact and the ego threads on my promiscous lil evods are sloppy enough that there shouldn't be an issue with unscrewing the tank from the base or the adapter from the mod.

I'm still using a few evod coils that I started in early July so I decided on a fresh, dedicated coil for my Vision Victory dedicated to MBV Butterscotch +1
I tried a real Protank coil and it's and gurglicious so I replaced it's post with a spare real evod post.
No gurgling, just delicous MBV steeped butterscotch goodness. 5mls at a time :)

I DIY'ed some and it tasted very good after a few hours in the UC and a week+ of regular steeping.
Give it time to mature and maybe you'll like it sometime soon or not.
It's taken quite some time for my Pinapple Peach to mature but I like that now too.

Kelli,
Felt I just had to reply to this and then I'll stop with the moroseness. My mother and I had a really difficult and toxic relationship all of my life. She was hyper critical and nothing I ever did was good enough. I had decided to remove her from my life, with the total encouragement of the rest of my family and my adult kids. I hadn't spoken to her in 6 months when she called and told me she had cancer. So I tried to be there for her. Every time I would go back to KC I'd stay with her and tried to support her because she had pancreatic cancer and they gave her 19 months at the outside. Well, she lived almost four years!! Around a couple years ago a terrible fight happened and I decided I HAD to be done with her to preserve my own peace of mind. I hadn't spoken to her in a year when I saw her last Thanksgiving and my heart softened towards her. From that point on we talked on the phone occasionally, but I knew I couldn't stay with her when I'd go back there. One night in June I felt the strongest need to call her, so I did. I ended up crying and telling her I regretted everything and I was just filled with this compassion and love for her. I intended to be even closer with her in the future and call her every day, but the next day she turned that last corner and ended up in the Hospice House. I got there 2 days later and was so lucky that when I entered the room she heard my voice, woke up, and was so happy I was there. She gave me the biggest hug ever and my heart was filled up to the brim. She never really regained consciousness after that and died 6 days later. What I would say to you is this....forgive yourself first!! Some things can't be excused and we do what we think is best for us. I am so sorry your parents are gone, but you are here, and a very special person. Toxic relationships suck our energy whether it's a parent or not. Abuse, whether physical or verbal, over a lifetime from a parent is inexcusable. Most of my family cannot wrap their heads around the fact that I loved my mother so much when she died. It was just a gift, that's all I can think of it as, because she treated me horribly throughout my life. We luvs ya girl....and that's all you need to know. Hugs!!!

OMG! I am so glad I ordered a 50ml. bottle of Peanut Butter Cup!! It's so dang tasty! It's heavier on the peanut butter but I got a 30ml. bottle of Milk Chocolate to add sparingly to it to bump up the chocolate note. I can vape this all day long!! Warm peanut butter with chocolate.....YUMMMMM!!!!

I got the Peach Rings and it tastes just like the candy. Can't vape it as an ADV, a bit too sweet for me.

So I ordered a Pyrex Vivi nova tank to use exclusively with my MBV cinnamon hot tamale and after a few minutes started to smell and taste burnt plastic.

I have melted MANY plastic drip tips, usually melted on CE4s vaping a great juice :p

roonies, i am so verklempt right now i can barely see to type. thank you for your kind words. its a wonderful thing what you were able to experience in your mom's last days. i have always felt i let mine down. i despised her so much, but she was my only mother and i turned my back on her in her time of need. she did the same to me many times, but two wrongs don't make a right. what a sweet thing for you to write tho. thank you. thanks.gif
