Both

Both. Usually I order a higher nic (48) pemixed and add PG and some flavoring to it to make a lower mg.I use 100 mg and add PG and flavoring to make 36mg. I do use Tasty Vapor doublers.

I only use PG

36 mg.

Atomic cinnacide

Name Your Juice!

1) Do you buy your juice already mixed or do you DIY?

I DIY most of my juice, but I still buy some because I haven't figured out how to get a specific flavor myself. I also buy some pre-filled carts for the same reason.

2) If you DIY, what is your process? Do you modify pre-made mixes by adding additional flavor or by mixing them with other pre-made mixes. Or do you mix from scratch using unflavored PG, VG, nicotine and adding your own flavor. Or do you just cut high nicotine juice with plain PG/VG or with TastyVapor doublers?

I buy unflavored high nic juice and then cut it with plain PG and VG. It's cheaper that way. I mix up a big bottle of the nic strength I want, put some in little bottles and add flavor drops.

3) What ratio of PG to VG do you prefer?

I like a 70/30 mix or thereabouts.

4) What nicotine level do you prefer?

12 to 16mg nic. I vape more for the habit than for the nicotine and would like to wean myself down to 0 nic eventually.

5) What mix is your favorite? (Be specific. Include the exact names of the liquids you use)

I get nic juice from whomever has it for cheap - often on the classifieds here and from StrictlyEjuice when it's in stock and MyFreedomSmokes when it is on sale. I have a bottle of Wilton's VG. I use the flavors and plain PG from HappyVaper.

Feel free to add any other information about your mix or your mixing process.

I learned to never make more than 3ml of any flavor until I am sure I love it. Even then, I only make a 10ml bottle because my taste changes quite often. I found labels that won't smudge or fall off. And keep a recipe book!!

Name Your Juice!

1) Do you buy your juice already mixed or do you DIY?
Mostly DIY

2) If you DIY, what is your process? Do you modify pre-made mixes by adding additional flavor or by mixing them with other pre-made mixes. Or do you mix from scratch using unflavored PG, VG, nicotine and adding your own flavor. Or do you just cut high nicotine juice with plain PG/VG or with TastyVapor doublers?
Depends on what I've got at the house, most times it's mixing premade (lately from what I've got from the PIF thread :))

3) What ratio of PG to VG do you prefer?
70/30 VG/PG. Mixture gives the best wicking/flavor/vapor I think.

4) What nicotine level do you prefer?
Between 32-36mg for most of the day or at work. 18-25mg at night whilst I wind down for bed :)

5) What mix is your favorite? (Be specific. Include the exact names of the liquids you use)
So far, as close as I've come to an all day vape is my home-made "Cloverice". Tasty Puff Cockamamie Clove (which tastes more like anise than clove I think, but there's still a bit of clove in there, thus Cloverice) and my VG/PG mix at about 30mg.

Feel free to add any other information about your mix or your mixing process.
You CANNOT be overly safe or "paranoid" about the cleanliness of your equipment/work space/yourself when it comes to mixing juice. It's way too easy to cross-contaminate ingredients, especially if you get distracted, which is why it's also important to mix somewhere alone and undistracted. PPE is essential. Nic, afterall, IS a poison and can kill in large enough concentration/doses, so where your nitrile/apron/eye shields/long sleeves.

Name Your Juice!

1) Do you buy your juice already mixed or do you DIY?

Pre-mixed - Im too lazy to DIY :)
2) If you DIY, what is your process? Do you modify pre-made mixes by adding additional flavor or by mixing them with other pre-made mixes. Or do you mix from scratch using unflavored PG, VG, nicotine and adding your own flavor. Or do you just cut high nicotine juice with plain PG/VG or with TastyVapor doublers?

See above.

3) What ratio of PG to VG do you prefer?

Around 80/20 or 70/30 suits me just fine

4) What nicotine level do you prefer?

12mg is my usual - I have 18mg as well though which is fine anything higher I cant vape for long.
5) What mix is your favorite? (Be specific. Include the exact names of the liquids you use)
Too many to name - Im a juice-a-holic and I like most things Ive tried
The only exception for me would be anything with Cloves as I'm not a fan and it tends to give me a migraine. Other than that, I have tobaccos, fruits and dessert type vapes, they all have a place in my collection.
I buy mostly from TV, DIYFlavorshack,Cignot (their BASIC range not the dekang ones),MSTsBakery,Vaporstation,Madvapes and Myfreedomsmokes (and that was listed in order of frequency)

Feel free to add any other information about your mix or your mixing process.

I can't really add anything else as I don't DIY :)

Name Your Juice!

1) Do you buy your juice already mixed or do you DIY?
I have done both

2) If you DIY, what is your process? Do you modify pre-made mixes by adding additional flavor or by mixing them with other pre-made mixes. Or do you mix from scratch using unflavored PG, VG, nicotine and adding your own flavor. Or do you just cut high nicotine juice with plain PG/VG or with TastyVapor doublers?

I have bought american unflavored nic juice (48mg) from My FreedomSmokes lower it with PG/Vg I bought from Happy Vapor USP and add flavorings I get from Happy Vapor
. I also buy premixed, like DYIFlavorshack and Bombdropvapor. I like the taste of quality American
made with no chemical smells.


3) What ratio of PG to VG do you prefer?

I like 50/50 or 60/40

4)
What nicotine level do you prefer?

Started out stronger at 24 and 36, now down to about 12mg


5)
What mix is your favorite? (Be specific. Include the exact names of the liquids you use)

Started out liking Tobacco flavors; recently found I like the fruity one
.
Won some BombDropVapor recently and I opened up to Key Lime and Cola,
it's good!

Feel free to add any other information about your mix or your mixing process.

If you mix, use only small bottles to experiment with. I have wasted juice
because the flavors were not to my liking. Most folks will agree, whether
you buy already made or DYI..don't jump to the expense of larger mixes at first.

1) Do you buy your juice already mixed or do you DIY?

i've only been vaping for 2 weeks, so all my juices are pre-mixed. i'm still experimenting what nic level and PG/VG ratio is right for me, but eventually i want to start dabbling into DIY.

2) If you DIY, what is your process? Do you modify pre-made mixes by adding additional flavor or by mixing them with other pre-made mixes. Or do you mix from scratch using unflavored PG, VG, nicotine and adding your own flavor. Or do you just cut high nicotine juice with plain PG/VG or with TastyVapor doublers?

before i get into DIY, i'm sampling TV's flavors so i can get their doublers.

3) What ratio of PG to VG do you prefer?

since i'm still experimenting, i'm not sure of the exact ratio but i know i definitely like more VG. to me, feeling the heaviness of the vapor when i inhale is much more satisfying than a big throat hit.

4) What nicotine level do you prefer?

it varies. 24mg first thing in the morning and after meals, 12-18 in between and 0mg before bedtime.

5) What mix is your favorite? (Be specific. Include the exact names of the liquids you use)

i can't say i have a favorite all-day juice. i'm constantly switching throughout the day since i tend to get bored with just one flavor. i do like Tasty Vapor's Atomic Cinnacide, BASIC's Forbidden, Ms. T's French Toast and Aunt T's Mint just to name a few.

All my juices are DIY VG juices.

My base is either 100 mg VG from MFS or 35 mg VG from Vermont Vapor.

My normal recipe is 12 mg nic, 15% distilled water, 10% flavor. I make a 36 mg juice for the occasional boost.

I use syringes for all mixing, for safety, efficiency and accuracy. Accuracy is very important when using 100 mg.

I make my juices in 20-30 mL batches, 6 - 10 mL per flavor, and keep the unflavored nic juice in storage. Flavors can decompose with time, so I don't make more than what will get me through a couple weeks. I use plastic dropper bottles for the DIY juices, from USplastics.

My fave flavors are:

Capella: vanilla custard, double chocolate, pralines and cream, caramel, toasted almond.

Lorann: english toffee, caramel, pralines and cream, black walnut, licorice.

Blaze, thanks for the comment on safety. People that use 60 - 100 mg nic juice need to realize it is very dangerous. All my unflavored is in amber bottles with eurodropper inserts, which allow syringe dispensing, and protect from accidental spills if the bottle is tipped over.

Amber Euro Glass Bottle 50 ml w/ Dropper Cap (Blk) - 18 EURO BLK
