    Ooops, sometimes I don't have all my facilities (you clearly said VG base). Just use distilled water. I doubt if you'll have any problem though, unless you use certain tanks or cartos. But even still, you can thin it with a little distilled water.

    p.s. I confused what you have with what I have, which is 50/50.


    Haha, I'm starting to try only saying Welcome to newcomers before 9-10 Am.

    Finally I made 10 ml of my favourite juice with this vg base without dilute.
    after mixing and a hot bath for an hour the results are perfect!
    All the flavours mixed nice.
    So smooth and velvety vaping, very good vapor production and great throw hit for me!
    No any prob with liquid delivery.
    I can say That's a very good base!
    Fortunately because I have 2 liters [emoji1]

    Got my Chemnovatic in an promptly dripped it in the same conentration and PG/VG ratio as my VT nic. This will be short, but my results are as follow:

    VT nic wins out for unflavored vaping.

    Chemnovatic may beat VT for mixing simply becasue it is, based on my brief experience, truly devoid of any taste. That won't work for me with unflavored and it felt a tad bit dry, but in my mix I made up it worked like a charm -- or at least as good as VT. I don't think I have any need to buy this over VT but I will sure as hell use what I have. [My poor MFS nic is not even getting touched these days.] Maybe someone out there that has more bread than I got would be advised to get some of the Chemnovatic. It's good stuff and from what I can tell, it will not interfere one bit with your mixes.

    Thanks for your feedback. So Chemnovatic has no pepper taste at all?

    Wondering if anone else gets vapers tongue from diluting with distilled water 5-10%?

    I have been vaping two years, also diy from my 1st week vaping; I used to get vapers tongue a lot when I diluted with distilled.
    I never use it anymore, luckily I can use pg but every time I used distilled I got the irritated tongue.
    I haven't had a case of that since no more using distilled with diy sometimes with a vendors juice I get it when they use distill.
    Meh

    Peppery tobacco is usually the ethyl alcohol dilute needs airing out. In small >30ml mixes air out in a day or two in huge mixes that could take a while..
    Some nic it's used so heavy it seems it never will come out. A quicker way is to microwave it 10 secs let that sit cap off until it cools try it, then microwave it again if it is still peppery. Some flavors are peppery too like FA Burley when used over 1%..

    I want to try some unflavored but not ready to commit to mixing my own yet (I may get there but I want to sample first). I currently have 250mls Nude Nic in my cart but balked at the $12.00 shipping charges. I'm looking for 6mg and a 70vg/30pg ratio. I will be vaping it straight and using it to cut some of my juices so I don't plow through them so fast. Is there any other good quality vendors that offer 70/30, are on par with NN, and don't kill you with shipping? I'm so close to pulling the trigger, just figured if there is a better option you guys would know. Thanks

    Thanks. I meant peppery taste in the nic base. Just 50/50 PG/VG + nic no flavoring.

    Make sure you try nude's nic sample its only two bucks.. Yeah their shipping is a lot high but I gotta have it lol.. Under ~120ml its $5.25..

    Try wizardlabs their shipping is low and nic, pg/vg is very decent. Shipping 250ml vg/pg is about ~$8.50 from WL.. Cannot beat their flavor prices to try them..

    Honestly if you have a walmart around the humco vg is awesome its a new product from old days it did have a strange taste back a while now its as good as medical vg. You can also pick up pg from walgreens pharmacy if they do not stock it they will have it delivered either that same day or next day its very fast..

    Thanks Visus!

    I assume you're using DW only with VG based Nic. In that case, most vendors already dilute their vg based nic with a minimum of 5% DW.

    I sent you a PM but I see you're in Western Mass. I'm in Central.
    I was going to offer to PIF you a bottle of NN.
    We (New England Vapers on FB) don't have any meets planned this month so you might as well get Nude from the source.
    You have my # if you ever get out to this area. I'm 20 minutes North of Worcester in Clinton.

    I'm going to show my ignorance here, but what is vaper's tongue? I've seen threads/posts but never read carefully because I have never (I think I haven't anyway) had it

    ?

    The one thing I'll say is water seems to "open" things up as Kurt pointed out to me a long time ago. More flavor, even if you're just using unflavored, more throat hit, more pepper, etc.

    Vapers tongue is when you loose your taste. Can't taste the flavors of your juice. That is a very simple definition.

    ahhh thank you for clearing that up. I guess I've never noticed anything like that, but I don't use flavors frequently or long enough to get there so I'm a poor test subject

    when I was first starting to vape unflavored I would notice however that vaping a flavor for a few days would lead to it becoming kind of...well...boring...and then switching to unflavored for a few days would reset the palate (brain?) and then I could enjoy it again

    Wow and Pfft..............

    Came here trying to get some insight. Seems like to much - mine is better - (X) sux

    Would be nice if someone actually did a subjective comparison of several available brands and listed the Variences.
    Not opinions, variances.

    I have read WL is much better than MFS and Vise Verse
    Some prefer total transparency but other feel it is FLAT
    Some say a Nic is peppery and others say it has a nice hit.

    I am not interested in paying 3x price for a Nic that may be preferences 1 step higher by a limited number of elite Mixologist or Flavorles Vapors, but I would like to know if a specific Brand/supply is going to heavily influence my mixes when used in LOW %

    Anyone got a Chart? :(

    Samples are cheap (and even nude nic will basically give you one), so for under $20 you can have the battle royal of nicotine samples.

    It would be nice to be able to assume that each vendor's nic does not vary from one batch to the next, but from what I can tell, that is sometimes not the case.
