My DIY Experience Firing Up

[SenorMike]

So just got into the DIY world. Starting to read up on the stickies and other posts for good info.
Here is a list of flavors I have now. If any of you have any advice with what I have now, that would be great.

Im never knew until getting here about steeping, prior when buying juice they always mixed it up right there. So this is all very interesting and a learning experience.

Im using Kosher VG and PG. And also bought from WL 100mg/ml nic.

wow I am impressed I have quite a few flavours that I have just bought as well and have mixed up a few small amounts I added some stevia because I like sweet and some of the more seasoned members did say it was okay to use it. I haven't yet come up with something that is as good as what I have purchased but I am very new at it I did buy a dripper though and the flavours are very strong in the dripper

You really need some vanilla's and more creams to augment what you have. They are super important. At least for my mixes. I started off much like you with a bunch of flavors and no idea what to do with them.

I would try
6% cinnamon Danish swirl
3% sweet cream
2% Carmel candy
2% marshmallow
1% maple syrup

A vanilla would be awesome in this. Tfa vanilla swirl is a good flavor to buy in 4 oz bottle.

Have fun and let us know what you come up with.

Here's some good reading

My blogs will give insight into all aspects of DYI, from steeping to what supplies to have on hand to a basic walk through mixing your first E-juice.

Then read hoosier's blogs. These blogs concentrate on fine tuning your mix and give insight on additives.

Then read Boletus's blog's. These blogs concentrate on formulation of nicotine bases regarding proper calculations methods for figuring Nicotine concentration as well as safety.

Then read Ginger's book "E-Cigarettes 102: DIY E-Liquid". It is a book which I've contributed to that delivers an in depth easy to follow guide in the art of DYI.

E-Cigarettes 102: DIY E-Liquid

I recommend viewing VPLive Vape Team Episode #82: DIY Safety and bookmark it for future reference. It explains safety in all aspects of DYI.

Have you made this ? Im trying it now. How long should it steep ?

 

[SenorMike]

If anyone has any major flavors I should get larger bottles of let me know. Such as the gentleman above speaking about vanillas and creams

 

[Rickb119]

I wouldn't "start" with large bottles of anything! I have several 4oz bottles of flavoring in my cupboard that will never get used (I really need to toss them at this point). Some were bought based on the recommendations of others. Some were flavors that I really liked, until I found something I liked much better. Some are just getting old because I just don't vape as much of that flavor as I thought I would.

Start small until you find out if you like it or not. The exception might be the above mentioned TFA Vanilla Swirl. It's good stuff.

 

[SenorMike]

I mean highly popular mixing stuff. Like Ethyl Maltol, Koolada I ordered a larger amount of, being 1oz bottles that is. Everything else was an 8ml flavoring. Sweet Cream im very low on, seems to be used often in mixes lol.

 

[SenorMike]

Also, I have something custom baking I mixed tonight, I suspect a little steep time is needed, but when I get this Papa smurf out of my tank Ill try it. A kind of blueberry/strawberry lemonade. I used some other lemonade recipes and altered them to make what I have concocted lol Smells AMAZING

 

[sketchness]

Have you made this ? Im trying it now. How long should it steep ?

Yes I have. It is a very sharp bakery cinnamon flavor fresh. Which I like. But after about 2 weeks it transforms into something amazing.

And I absolutely agree about larger sizes. Except vanilla swirl
