How much liquid does everybody have in inventory right now? I am curious as to how much everyone keeps on hand as I am trying to decide how much is enough. :p

I count 30 bottles here, with varying degrees of fullness and in varying sizes, plus one 236ml bottle... let's call it about 900ml total. Doesn't feel like near enough when you figure in steep time and a handful that are fine flavors but not what I'd prefer to vape.

It looks like I found the thread to ask my question - the thread of people who actually vape & enjoy MBV's liquids. I have just placed my first order, it should be here in a couple of days. I ordered well in advance of need, so it can have lots of steeping time before I try it. My question is about flavour shots (and yes, it should have been asked before I ordered, but I couldn't find a thread that was actually about MBV juice!). I ordered 5 different flavours, and I got 1-3 extra flavour shots in each of them. My tastebuds are still healing, and I often have trouble tasting my juices. At this point, I guess I'm just asking what to expect. Is this going to put my juice in the slightly stronger flavoured range, or just barely flavoured, or over-flavoured, or what?
I'm sure this has been answered but what up B.C. :toast: you are right on track for a good experience, extra shots are not great right out of the gates but it sounds like you have a pretty good grasp on your taste buds so good idea on them, each type of juice from MBV have different steep times so if you give us a list we could comment on how long for each. Yay Canada.

Yeah, when people talk milliliters I think "That sounds like a lot." But when I look at it, I think, "That's not nearly enough."

Good Tuesday afternoon MBV :)

"Enough?" Enough=as much as it takes to soothe the anxiety of not having enough :)

I have "enough" to fill a couple of buckets :D

I used to think 50ml bottles were pretty sizable. Now they look small to me. lol. I might be developing a liquid-hoarder mentality, that's what really prompted my question. lol

Yup, same here. But I refuse to feel guilty about it, because when the regs come down, it's going to take a few months for things to get sorted out. The smart vendors (MBV and others) will probably experience little to no down time, but I don't want to be in a panic because a) I can't get juice or b) I can get juice, but it's twice the price it used to be so now I can't get as *much* as I need to be able to have a decent supply from paycheck to paycheck. So, hoard away, I say. There will come a day when we're glad of our hoarding tendencies, if only because it'll save us some money down the road.

Hiya Stone.

You can never have too much juice on hand. I would hate to count up how much I have now but I'm sure it isn't enough.
Hey Amiaji! :)

Yep, that's the thing...I can't stop worrying about what will happen after the FDA finally passes the deeming regulations. I don't know what will happen, but I suspect that ejuice will bear the brunt of the deeming regulations. If that is true, it is possible that we will experience periods where ejuice will be unavailable or a black market item. This is entirely the reason that I took up DIY. I have enough flavorings and nic to last awhile, and that doesn't include all of the other assorted bottles of juice cluttering my vape world at the moment :)

Well, In a week's time I will have received over 600ml's in liquid. I can't tell you how much I had before that, maybe 500? But the humidor is getting full.

I think when it comes down to it the only item the FDA will be able to tax and regulate is the nicotine. PG/VG/Flavorings, etc can all be used for other things and there's nothing in them the FDA can really tax without hurting other industries. If I were able to DIY, I would be figuring out the best way to stockpile the nicotine to make it last as long as possible and then buying a great deal of it.

Besides its your turn to use the bath water...... it's an odd year

Well, if it wasn't an odd year before that post, it certainly is now.

I haven't seen much of him since Darryl was killed and pantera fell apart is all.

He did a couple small things then he's been with that side project 'super group' since. Wasn't sure since when Dimebag got shot, the early reports were saying it was Vinnie and/or both of them. I was running sound at a club that night & in between bands one of my waitress friends came into the booth crying. Her boyfriend was the opening act for them & she was getting txt's before it even came on the news. Pretty crazy & a very sad day, indeed.

How much liquid does everybody have in inventory right now? I am curious as to how much everyone keeps on hand as I am trying to decide how much is enough. :p

Take what you have, triple it, multiply by 1/pi^2, carry the 2, subtract 3 & buy a vowel. That should be about half of 'enough'.

I bought a 1 liter bottle of 100mg nic juice just for that reason. I haven't yet tried to make my own but I can if I have to. Even at 50 mil a week that would make enough to last 2 years.

Entirely true, since PG/VG and flavorings are used in too many other applications. I'm going to lay in some DIY supplies as soon as I can afford it, but it's too big of an expenditure this close to Christmas... hopefully next month.
