Odysseus home made liquids

[utal]

Hello all!

I was wondering if there are some "experts" on making the right liquid for Ody.

Any advice on what products should I use in terms of VG, PG, flavors, nicotine, etc?

What "offline" calculators are you using to make the perfect juice for Ody?

All the best
Paulo

ejuice is as individual as it gets....what you love I might hate and vice versa so there's no "right" formula. I'm not sure what "offline calculator" means, but I use Breaktru's Ejuicemeup. It's a fine program.

I think that the same theory applies to any mod, atty, battery.............

What I'm looking for is to avoid the worst experiences over there and to try the best ones. I see ppl saying that they lost flavor with rebuildables, etc, etc, so I was just looking for good experiences from Ody users with home made e-liquids

About the offline calculator, there are several online calculators to know the % of nicotine, flavor, vg/pg, etc, in order to do a Xmg of nicotine with X% of VG/PG, etc. What I was looking for is for a calculator that don't need any internet connection or some other that ppl who make their own liquids use.

Thanks!

Breaktru's is the one you want.....google to get the link (Breaktru's EjuiceMeUp), download, install, and you're done. It comes with a nice collection of recipes as well. It's a great program

Well, I've only used a couple rebuildables so far: the Bulli A2-T and Odysseus. I've got a couple more rebuildables on the way, though. From my experiences with both of those I've found that my DIY mixes have been nice flavorful vapes in them. I typically do about 16mg nic, 40-50% VG (occasionally all VG) and 15-20% flavor (depending on the particular flavoring used). I like the vape of 100% VG, but have found that sometimes I need to add more flavoring with those mixes and a roughly 50/50 mix of PG and VG gives me the optimum balance between flavor level and quality of vape (for my taste, anyway).
I have some PEG-400, too, but haven't played with it enough yet to really say anything about it. Maybe I'll do up a batch of something with it later this week

The biggest detriment to flavor IMHO is due to the particular coil and wick setup. Some setups just burn too hot for some juices. I'm still learning how best to build for optimum flavor, but it's been going well so far with most of my setups
I was vaping on my Odysseus most of the day with a 1.2 ohm single coil setup, using .2 kanthal instead of the .15 nichrome that came with Ody, only two loose wraps with a doubled piece of wick inside. I was quite surprised that even a more delicate flavor came through nicely even at that low a resistance


I don't know if any of that is the kind of info you were looking for

I would post my thoughts, but for some reason Killjoy does exactly the same thing I do right down to the percentages. Thats really wild. Except for I do 6V on Ody, Iatty and Bulli A-2

Mixing my own juice is one thing I have yet to try. Perhaps it is because I have trouble mixing hot water with instant oatmeal that has me hesitant!

Thats pretty funny Major - best off defeating the oatmeal first

Thanks Killjoy1, it's a start for me! just need to buy some bases and start playing with eJuice Me Up.

haha, you know what they say about great minds ;-)

I never took the A2 above 5v, but I have done one 6v setup so far at about 3 ohms on Ody (I always do 6v with my UFS, though) and it was an awesome vape! My 1.1 ohm dual coil was great at 6v, too, but a bit on the hot side. I just did that last coil really low res 'cos I wanted to play with my GG in Stealth mode


utal, if you're just getting into DIY the best thing I can suggest is to stick with small batches at first until you get a feel for just the right ratios for you. I still do small batches when I'm trying out a new flavor, too. That way I can fine tune my mix a little with each batch until I find the perfect ratio for that flavor.

A lot of people just find a VG/PG ratio that they like and stick with it, yet others will adjust that ratio for different flavors. Whatever gives you the most satisfaction is the right way
