My first DIY order!

[tmel]

Everything is from onestop DIY shop.

I already get my base from nude nicotine, 12mg 50/50 120ml for 9.99.

Did I forget any little odds and ends? I use a Reo Grand and have about 6 6ML bottles that I swap around. 6ML is about 2.5 days for me, so I will make 15ML batches and vape the flavor for 3 or so days then switch.

Also...given the flavors I selected, what combinations can you think of?

On 2nd thought...should I have gotten some sweetener for all those fruit flavors?

Since the horchata is somewhat like cinnamon...will it not go well in a plastic bottle?

 

[keonee]

I just started myself. You certainly got more then I did. I got a few different size syringes, blunt tip needles, amber bottles and some plastic bottles.

I use 60mg nicotine VG base along with the PG and VG bases that I mix to bring me to a 12mg/nicotine. I only have 4 flavors right now.

All my DIY e-liquid has been fantastic...I don't think I'll be ordering online e-liquid again.

 

[tmel]

Good to hear!

I'm not quite comfortable with dealing with high %ml nic base, so I prefer to just get it pre-blended/mixed. It's super cheap and works well for me.

I've been vaping unflavored with some mint and koolada for 2 months now, but I want some flavor again.

 

[keonee]

I have cinnamon e-liquid shipped to me in a plastic bottle. If using a clearomizer to vape I'd use pyrex/glass tank.

When I mix my DIY e-liquid I use amber bottles. They clean up so much better then the plastic bottles. For out and about I dump some in plastic bottles.

Cool. You're gonna have fun. Those cobalt blue bottles are beautiful. Watch that tobacco flavor, it's strong.

Yup, I am excited!

I think I have the ingredients to make a Bahama Clone..

TFA Sweetener will come in handy, but some people use EZ Sweets (I think they buy it in the store). I've heard ripe banana by itself is a tank cracker but I don't use it by itself. It's pretty potent but it does go well with tfa banana cream; it adds something to both that is lacking by themselves. Lots of people use EM (ethyl maltol) and AP (acetyl pyrazine) with their tobaccos. I don't but many do. Oh, tfa bavarian cream is good to mix with fruits. Horchata too, that's a nice one to have. Looks like a nice start!

 

[tmel]

Thanks, I will see how it goes and see if I need the sweetener, I love the bavarian cream idea.

What exactly does the EM and AP do to the flavor of the tobacco and why only to those?

I was going to mix the Horchata with the Espresso, maybe a touch of menthol or koolada.


I am only concerned about juice that would damage a normal plastic bottle, I have 6ml on board with my Reo Grand for squonking!!

 

[Wingsfan0310]

AP gives it a nutty taste to me at 1 to 2 drops per 5ml, at high concentrations it tastes like burnt corn chips imo. EM gives it a sweeter taste but isn't a true sweetener like sucralose. I use AP in my RY4D mix every time. Don't really use EM much even though I have it. YMMV

I decided to pick the below up from nude nicotine.

Sucralose Solutions
Solvent:
PG - 10% Ethyl Maltol Solution (Industry Standard)

Tartaric Acid Solutions
Solvent:
PG - 10% Ethyl Maltol Solution (Industry Standard)

I was going to mix the Horchata with the Espresso, maybe a touch of menthol or koolada.

It's pretty harsh so better go very light on the espresso and play around before adding nic and having to dump it.

I already get my base from nude nicotine, 12mg 50/50 120ml for 9.99.

So if you have a pre made base.....12MG 50/50...and you add your flavors (most in a PG base), your MG of nic is going to go lower every time you mix in flavorings and your juice will always be high in PG.......but as the same with your nic content, will never be the same from juice to juice.

Will you be using a good calculator such as the E-Juice me up calculator ?

 

[Visus]

vg is sweeter than sugar, pg is not to far behind that in sweetness, i say check your atty setup its not giving you a correct flavor hit. I used sweetner before I setup atty's properly.. Sweetner @1 drop makes juice so sweet it almost makes me hurl..

Nice 1st order, I remember my first order and so does the mailman lol...
