And I've never heard of cheesy juice.
My Flavor West yogurt flavoring is probably the closest approximation available.

Posting football on the front porch. It's like everybody went home?
I don't know. The whole place seemed quiet today. I think game viewership was quite high.

Heck, I'm doing both! Multitasking my friend, Multitasking.

Sent with no malice and not a whole lot of forethought from my new Galaxy Tab 4. Thanks Santa!

Can one buy unflavored "juice" in volume, at varying nic levels? (With pharma grade nic?) The one thing I'm afraid of with DIY is handling nic. I have enough problems without adding that to the equation!

Sure you can. Lots of places sell, just look under their DIY supplies or sometimes in their juices. We can walk you through the handling part of the DIY thing. The NIC we use isn't all that dangerous. If you get a little on you just wash it off. I used to wear disposable rubber gloves and don't even do that anymore. I do mix inside a large baking sheet to contain any spills. You can buy any level of nic up to 100mg/ml. That's what I buy because it's a true bargain. I have enough nic in my freezer to last mee a number of years. Say 10. If your worried about it you can 30mg/ml or 50mg/ml.

Thanks, Matt! I'd love some direction in proper handling. Truth to tell, I read the "stickies" in the DIY forum and got frightened.

Have a good night, all. Pats won; I can go to sleep, now :)

Good night my friend. I am not far behind you. Now talk about a blowout. It's like the Colts sent the third string. Patriots let everybody play cept the janitor the last 4 or 5 minutes. We'll talk more about juice mixology later.

LB,

Some of those stickies are for da senseless folk (aka LCD). As long as you're aware of da 'dire' warnings, DIY is really an easy and rewarding endeavor.

I do not use gloves, catch pans nor good luck charms. I do use 60mg or 100mg nic fer mixing.

Probably be sorry I asked, but is there cheese flavored juice?

TFA Sweet Cream and TFA Vanilla Swirl both have solid cheesy notes. When you mix them with other flavors, they just make the juice taste creamy though.

There are also several different kinds of cheesecake.

As far as I know, nothing like cheddar flavor :)

No need to be frightened. As long as you keep in mind that you're working with a potentially dangerous chemical, and exercise a reasonable amount of care, nothing bad will happen. Nic is absorbed through the skin relatively slowly, so if you get some on you, just get up, go to the sink, and rinse it off. If you start feeling like you've gotten too much nic in your bloodstream (light headed, nauseous, headache, hiccups), then stop and wait until you feel like you need a vape. Other than that, don't spill it all over the place or leave puddles of it lying around, and keep it away from pets and children. If it makes you feel better, get some nitrile gloves from the hardware store, and wear those when you work.

Other than that, there's not really anything to it. Get the math right on your mixes or just copy someone else's recipe, and you're golden. If you need help with the calculations, post the recipe you're starting with, how much you want to make, and what your final nic level should be, and we can double check (or do) your math for you.

It's been said elsewhere, but: if you can bake a cake, you can make your own eliquid.

I do it IN the sink. :) No worries about spills and can wash hands instantly if disaster strikes.

Usually I don't do it at all but I screwed up and ordered 120ml of my fav juice. At 0mg. ::::sob:::: BUT i had 250ml of 36mg nic I got when I was planning on starting out. So, 120ml of my juice, 120ml 36mg nic... Now I have a vat of my fav at 18.

Yep I've heard that you can put an Oring from KFL chimney under the screw and it hold the screw outside the housing. Don't think I will have a problem with the VS I believe it has a gold plated spring loaded pin. I also picked up some vape bands to put around the top part of the glass and top cap and one on the bottom section of the glass to protect it. Maybe even hold the glass if you want to fill from the bottom taking the cap off. I believe they are 23mm and the vape bands are a little tight on a 22mm and they are pretty thick. Want to protect the glass more than anything. My wife found a great syringe to fill it. It's about 6ml and it has a long plastic tip that is curved and comes to a point. She has a bunch of junk from when she worked for Eldec Electronics. Plus they say Taste Your Juice and have P Busardo on it. I gotta tell him I'm advertising for him he needs to let me win a contest.

Some places should sell glass replacements for the lemo seen some around about $5.
