Noob to DIY juice...Flavor???

[BethAnn]

I'm about to take that leap and make my own juice...Where is the best place to purchase Flavor Concentrates. Also, came across a few calculators and wondering if anyone has used the ejuicemeup calculator. If so, was it a good one? What calculator would you recommend? I need simple and easy to understand that will calculate it all for me.​

Also, another question...Are all flavor concentrates mixed in 100% pg?

Wizardlabs is my go-to. All very high quality stuff, super cheap prices, and they test everything themselves, to make sure it's up to par. As far as flavors, I'm sure there are VG flavors out there, but I wouldn't know where to get them. Bear in mind that most juices don't go more than 20% flavoring, so if you get 100%VG Nic base, you are looking at MOST 20%PG*. (Assuming you are wanting little to no PG)

eJuiceMeUp is probably the best ejuice calculator out there at the moment.

*It should be noted that alot of juice vendors that sell "100%VG" juices, are actually selling juice that is 100%VG NOT counting the flavoring. Not all of them do that, but some do.

Most flavorings will be in PG solutions. There are a few brands that use alcohol. I've seen very few flavorings that are in VG. Often, a typical flavoring may have a combination of PG and alcohol (and sometimes water.)

If you don't have any serious aversion to PG, I'd recommend Wizard Labs for their overall excellence as a DIY vendor, though I have other vendors that I like to buy from as well. I'm sensitive to PG, but 20% or less in a mix does not bother me, so I use their flavorings. Note that they list the ingredients and the manufacturer on each flavoring page.

I don't use e-juice calculators, but ejuicemeup is popular, still maintained, and made by an innovator in this community. Can't say much else about it, other than I think it has lots of recipes included, too.

EcigExpress has lots of flavorings, as well. You can also buy directly from some manufacturers, like the Perfumers Apprentice.

I like Ecigexpress, Vaping Zone and High Desert Vapes for my flavor buying---ECX has the most flavors in one place. You may buy your nicotine at any of those places Wizard Labs I believe only carries TPA brand.

It just depends on what flavor you are buying really... A lot is TPA, a lot is TFA, and there's LA, and SM... I personally love WL, and get all my DIY stuff from them, but I suppose that since everyone's taste is different, flavorings would be subject to that same effect.

I just meant for more brand options the other places have more brands to choose from in one place. Nothing against the wizard...lol

LOL No offense on either side really... Just putting the info out there.

 

[BethAnn]

If you do want to avoid PG, the Nature's Flavors stuff is PG free. High Desert sells their flavors, but they don't call them Nature's Flavors... I think they might be listed as PG-free flavors or something like that.

Yup. They are called Non-PG Based Flavors - High Desert Ecigs - Age Verification

One Stop DIY also carries Nature's Flavors - Nature's Flavors Organic Flavoring - One Stop DIY Shop Store

If you can sift through the website for the non-PG flavors, check here - Natures Flavours
