Hey everyone, Just a new member trying to get my posts in. Also want to get into DIY E juice. But horribly failing. I got all my ingredients from Wizard Labs
these are the stuff I bought:

120ml 18mg PG Nic Blend
250ML VG

Flavorings (All 8mil):
- 1x Banana Cream
- 1x Strawberries and Cream
- 2x Vanilla Cupcake
- 1x Belgian Waffle
- 1x Milk Chocolate
- 1x Tiramisu


Can someone help me out?

Welcome to the boards, Kewzies!
Best advice I can give you on diy other than to visit the boards that EBates suggested is start by mixing the smallest batches you can get away with and TAKE NOTES on your ratios. Then when you find one that you like it will be easy to duplicate in larger volume.
You should be able to find many, many recipes... but the fun part for me was creating your own!
Good luck, have fun and happy vaping!!

I have visited that Sub-forum but I cant find a whole recipe. They just mention the Flavor percentages which may be a lot of help because yesterday I tried making a 10ml and a 15ml batch both didn't come out right. I mustve either put too much or less flavoring. Hopefully the next batch I make will be a success. I got a weird chemical taste so I'm thinking that I put too much flavoring, though the juice is almost tasteless I do get the nic hit I desire.

Hmmm... well, I can say this... after looking back over the flavors that you have, all of those would need a good steep to really bring out the flavors! And it probably wouldn't hurt to let them breathe for a day as well...
Breathe = put them in a cool dark place for about 24 hours with the bottles fully open to allow any alcohols (in your flavorings) to evaporate
Steep - put them in a cool dark place with the caps on for a period of time and give them a little shake every day or so (those flavors you'll probably want about 2-3 weeks of steep time)

Thanks Kaezziel, I am currently letting them breathe but geez I that steep time! Hehe 2-3 weeks... I guess I have to me more patient and make more batches.

What level of nicotine you’d like to vape?
What ratio of PG/VG you want?

LOL... no problem... though you can try to cheat.
Put the caps back on and put them in a ziploc baggie (close it, of course) then put it in a bowl and fill with hot tap water (as hot as the tap will get, don't microwave or boil) as the water cools, replace it with hot water... do this for about 4-5 hours, give them a good little shake and then let them breathe... that may get the flavors to mingle a bit better, they may still get better over time, but this might give you a little head start!

 

[Kewzies]

Yeah, I tried a different method where I just set the microwave for 2 minutes with nothing in it. Open it after its done and put my bottle in there for a few minutes. I should try your suggested method today. Also what do you think of the rice method?

 

[Kaezziel]

I'm not familiar with the rice method.
I must admit, I stole the method that I posted from another member here... i think he posted it a little different and probably better than I did, but what I posted is the general idea...

Here ya go... that's where I stole that method from! Glad I found it, I prefer to give credit where credit is due!!

Alright well thanks for the suggestion and help. I shall try to force steep these batches I made and see how they turn out.
