I hope so. I hate math and worry about getting the ratios all correct. :?:

Use a calculator like eJuice Me Up. If you can do math, it'll help you plan. And if you can't do math, it can do the math for you. :)

The harder part is just a matter of trial and error, IMO. But I've only made 3 juices and mixed 2 batches of unflavored base so what do I know yet. :p

Yup, that's the one I use :)

That's the one I use as well. I have tried most of them and this is the best. Love that the latest update gives option for 7 flavors for those crazy juices.

Also it comes preloaded with hundreds of recipes, and for someone just starting out my best advice is to look through them and find some that sound good to you, mix and then experiment with them until you come up with something you like.

Not really, the first ever batch I made over a month ago went unvaped and it turned a pretty dark green.

*Edit* actually now that I think about it, was over two months old before it went that dark. Still green but more the color of NyQuil, maybe not that dark.

Say, maybe you are on to something…

The Nightime, Sniffling, Sneezing, Coughing, Aching, Stuffyhead, Fever, So-You-Can-Rest vape

Sounds like a winner!

I use sterile cotton balls from the first aid aisle of the drug store...just a few dollars for a lifetime supply. It only takes a small amount rolled into a tiny "snake" like when you were a kid in school to thread through the coil. Cotton offers great flavor, IMO. I only use cotton in drippers now, and often use it to rebuild clearo heads.

^He knows his stuff! I think maybe I should give the cotton a try.

Good for you!! I think DIY needs to be my next move. Since getting my new Provari and Protank2 I am vaping more juice. I will be going through 50ml. bottles weekly at this rate....gotta change something up, but I've been holding back because I haven't been sure I can do it right. If I can rebuilt heads I can probably do DIY though, right??

How are you liking your provari roonies?! I have these grand ideas in my head when I think of DIY'ing, but then I'm sure it'd just be a disaster Lol

Agree, it is highly addictive, and oh so much fun. Mixing and making a juice that is really good is a wonderful feeling but the process of trial and error is also a lot of fun. Speaking of addicting, I am going to need to build more shelves very soon.

BTW Mike, I got a lot of the VZ super concentrates now and every one of them has been amazing. That pear was indeed what I was looking for, finally an amazing pear to go with my cinnamon. When you get back to experimenting I highly recommend you check them out. The tobacco bases are wonderful and most of the flavors only require 2% or so.

I made all this just this weekend, and every bottle is pretty good. Several of them are amazing and 2 are new all day vapes for me after just a couple days steeping.

If you need a tester for all that just let me know :2cool: haha

I use 100% pure cotton balls and just pull a strand off to put through the coil.

I also use cotton balls, except I'm still having a hard time getting just the right amount every time. Sometimes I have to rewick 4-5 times before I get the right amount. When I do, it's bliss. Lol.

Oh trust me, I have been kinda freaking, but more so about finding work and wondering w.t.h. is the hold up with the State on my application. But yeah, with everything dying one me day to day it's a little unnerving, but it's just part of life, gotta take it one day at a time, and I'm all set now thanks for some wonderful people here! And I do thank you all for your caring and support! :toast:

dusty, if you are handy (i'm not), i have an eGo that the button is stuck in on. it still works if you use your thumb nail to push it in, but i can't figure out how to make the button pop back out. it's just sitting there doing nothing if you want it.

My Cinnamon Red Hot (18 mg/ml, 50/50 +2) is still inducing coughing on inhale. It also separates into two layers in my Protank2.

Any suggestions on how to fix this liquid? Maybe mixing some unflavored into it? Also, how to save it from separating?

Anyone else have experience with this flavor? Maybe I should have ordered at max VG with no added shots?

X-ice is my favorite! Just ordered 50ml yesterday and 15ml of the flavor extract lol. Let me know if you really want to trade, I have a few flavors sitting in my waiting to trade stash.
