Newbie-No Nicotine DIY...Is it really this simple?

[evolutionx]

So, I've been vaping for about 6 months and I'm tired of paying high prices for zero nicotine juice.

Since I don't need nicotine is my process as simple as buy this http://www.choiceecig.com/vegetable-glycerin-usp-32oz/

mix into smaller bottles to steep

VAPE AWAY!!!!

I literally pooped myself when I realized I could have 3800ML of juice for 30-50 bucks (multiple flavors)

For my situation, anyone have suggestions (no nicotine)?

Thanks!

Pretty much if you vape 100%vg, you should use a calculator though.

Yeah, it's pretty much that simple. The hard part is finding the correct flavoring mixes and concentrations for your preference. Since you won't have to worry about preserving nicotine concentration, you will be able to adjust flavoring much more easily by dilution or adding flavoring.

If you're going to stick with just VG as the main liquid, then you may want to get some distilled water to thin it a bit. That would depend upon the percentage of flavoring in the mix, since those are generally PG, ethanol, and/or water. If you're using 15-20% flavoring, then you probably would not need to thin it more. I use VG with only around 7% flavoring, and usually add around 10% distilled water, as well.

Capella's flavorings are a great place to start. Most of them taste fine as single-flavor mixes. I like the ones that I have at around 15%.

A couple of sites that I like for flavorings are ECigExpress and VapingZone. They sell a wide variety of flavoring lines. Some are much more concentrated than others. You'll probably want to check them out eventually.

I'd suggest reading the stickies above, and considering getting some ethyl maltol to help with mixes that are a bit lacking.

Thanks for the input. I'm just curious, right now I get juice from a local shop and its 100%VG. I can't stand PG so I want to get 100% VG and just add a candy flavor (big fan of candy tastes). My questions is this, "No matter who the supplier, are all VG liquids of the same quality?" Meaning, the VG I get now tastes very smooth and produces tons of vapor, so is it safe to say that the store probably uses the same type of VG from a place like KARDEN DIST. and then just adds their "secret" flavoring? And any suggestions on "candy flavoring" companies? (I am reading the reviews on here). I'm a big fan of MINTS and SWEET CANDIES.

I basically just want to add a water soluble flavoring into lets say a 50ml bottle roughly 15% (depending on flavor strength) and the other 85% is the VG and thats it? at its most basic (due to no nicotine).

Thanks!

Yeah... 0mg is Dead Simple.

My Only Suggestion, as I would for Any DIY-er, is take Detailed and Accurate Notes of Everything you Mix.

That and Drink a Lot of Water when you Vape.

As previously stated your VG will be thick so will need thinned down. I've heard of lots of people diluting it with vodka instead of distilled water, to get a better throat hit. Haven't tried it myself mind.

You got it, it is simple! Do your test batches in 5 ml little bottles so you get the flavor right, take notes or write on bottle drops used and what flavor/s. Makes it easier to tweak Have fun! bnrk

Hey thanks everyone!!! I just got a 1000ml 100% VG from RTS Vapes and about 10 flavors including a menthol, sweetner, koolada in the 4ml sizes to sample. I also got syringes and bottles for the mixing. Being that I do no nicotine (sometimes 3-5 mg/ml) I may mess around and learn to do it with low nicotine for sh!ts n giggles. I'll look around on here for the % of either distilled water or vodka is necessary, I assume there is a golden rule for 100% VG. I did notice that some of the flavors I got do have PG in them so is it safe to say that even just the flavor can thin out the VG? That seems to make sense. Vaping was an eye opening experience when I first realized I could quit smoking but now this new DIY has got me excited again.
I personally couldn't stand handing over $1.00 per ml anymore at my highly inflated shop. They have great juice but I felt like I was getting pick-pocketed bigtime. I vape about 4-5 ml a day so it started to feel like I was smoking again. Doing the math, I just got about $800 worth of juice (buying at store) for about 40 bucks!!!! Its robbery I tell ya!!!!! I have seen the light once again.

Yes it'll thin it a bit, maybe not enough.
