need a strong cig taste for morning wakeup vape-in100% VG?

[Miracles]

Just plain old "unflavored nicotine" works for me EVERY MORNING with coffee! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE my tobaccos. Former menthol smoker, but find that I love non menthol tobacco flavors and that's what I vape most of the day. But for an AM wake up and ANY time I get an urge for a real cig... plain old Unflavored Nic satisfies the cravings every time.

Ah! OK thanks for explaining!

Dang, I have to steep for 3 weeks!? I was reading something about speeding up the steeping process by shaking the bottles and putting them in warm water, shaking again, etc. and I was wondering if I might speed it up some by placing them near the radiator, and shaking them every day....? Can't hurt to try maybe.

Forget about speed steeping, especially by applying heat. You'll end doing more harm than good. Steeping just takes time.

You can try the flavors immediately, as they are all good, but they will go through some drastic changes over time. This is especially true for tobacco flavors, especially NETs like Dark Horse. Typically, when tobacco juices are fresh, they are very one note. It is only after a few weeks that all these wonderful subtleties come out and bloom.

When Lynda lists Virginia/TA, she is talking about the mix she made of FA Virginia flavor with Tobacco Absolute(TA) added to it. She then uses that mixture as 3% of the total mix. The nicotine is added separately.
FA Virginia - 10 ml Tobacco Flavor Virginia (FA)
TA - Tobacco Absolute Blend PG ( TFA )

TA is a highly concentrated Bulgarian tobacco extract. DIYers use it to add a dark woodsy, smoky, almost ashtray flavor to their mixes. It is a very potent flavor, so it must be used very sparingly. In Lynda's case, she only adds a tiny amount to a flavor, and then adds that as a flavor in and of itself, so the TA is highly diluted, but it doesn't take much to make a big difference.

Yes, FA means FlavourArt.

EM is Ethyl Maltol. Sometimes it is called ethyl maltol, and sometimes it is sold as cotton candy flavor. Ethyl Maltol 10% PG Solution (TFA)
Same thing, different name - 10 ml Cotton Candy Flavor (TFA)

HHV Dark Horse and BWB Virginia are good places to start. Can't blame you for wanting to try Malty. Just be sure to steep all 3 juices for a few weeks. The color change in Dark Horse and Virginia should be quite noticeable.




Yeah, MTS is a good additive to have in your DIY arsenal. MTS stands for More, Thicker, Smoother. It rounds out juices by taking away the sharp notes and making subtle flavors a little more noticeable. It won't fix bad juices, but it can make a good juice become a great juice. 10 ml MTS Vape Wizard Flavor (FA)

ACV = Apple Cider Vinegar.

Just to clarify, I use pure TA, not the diluted version.

I filled my tank with some unflavored WTA from Wholecig and vaped that today, it wasn't bad and kept me satisfied. Not as exciting as having a nice flavor, but not bad at all.

lol, ok, but I think I might try and experiment with a couple of bottles I have that I don't care about anyway and see what happens... I won't try it with the tobaccos or any complex flavor.

I took advantage of myfreedomskokes sale and got some DIY stuff today along with some dripping atomizers. My MVP came too! It sure makes big vapor clouds. I'm not crazy about that iclear 30 tank that came with it though.

My next issue is to find a way to get the amount of flavor that I do with dripping, without having to drip.

As fas as dripping the Igo-L is amazing
great flav
easy rebuild
cheep
and hold 15-20 drops so you don't have to drip every second

as far as an alterative I have not tried but have been eying
the Reo Mod bottom feeder will have just as good flav because essentially it is dripping without having to drip

or the Russian 91% RBA (not sure yet if id go for this or not have heard mixed reviews so far
but its supposed to be better then the kayfun

I have only been using a bridgeless ego atomizer. Everyone says that building coils is the way to go *sigh* I guess I'll have to learn! I wish I had someone to just show me how in person. But they say it isn't that hard to do i guess. I still don't entirely understand why it si so much better than a store bought coil though

I've been thinking for a while about a REO too! I'd still have to build coils then I guess.

I'm not crazy about

I am currently enjoying Kamel Hump from OKCVapes...very good tobacco flavor not overly strong though. BTW my Granny used to say that...I'm not crazy about it...LOL

It seems intimidating at first but all it is
I take 30 gage kanthal torch it real quick
I take either 2 or 3 mm silica or elkwool torch it real quick
wrap the kanthel around a double over piece of wick and a pin
about 5 wraps
put it around the screws and tighten

I know it seems intimidating at first
but watch a few video's
after a couple times it will be easy

got to where I can wrap 2 start to finish torch and all 12-15 min
just relaxing doing it with morning coffee getting set for the day
