Ok, I'm jumping in with you. How about a Cool Coconut tobacco. Do you like alot of Menthol or a little?
I'm also wondering what the FDA has up their sleeve, so I bought the DIY kit and made up a small batch
of coffee flavored juice to get a feel for mixing and see how it would go. All in all, not bad and easier
than I thought it would be.
Come the FDA or a SHTF scenario, I'm ready.

I had one I called odds-n-ends. It was a mixture of some of my original samples. (I needed the bottles) All of them were kinda the same flavors. Coconut, pineapple, pina colata, and who knows what. I couldn't vape it but it was at least 60mgs of juice so couldn't bring myself to dump it. Little sis loves it. One mans trash is another mans treasure kind of thing I guess.
Lay it on me .. I like experimentation and I also could care less if I toss any of these "brews" out .. I've got quite a bit of my nic 6mg mix left to play with and still plenty of flavoring .. I would say I like a medium strength menthol .. I tend to use one liquid over a week and then switch to something else .. but the flavors I listed on my previous post are those that I've kinda settled into over the last few years ..
I don't care for coffees, sweet candy like liquid, pastry types, cookies .. etc ..
Yep, it was not hard to do .. I told a lady friend that I now can see why the liquid sellers on line have sprung up like weeds .. easy, cheap, high profit, high markup ..
Oh, I'm right there with you U/Willie! I have everything to start with and have made one successful attempt w/Peppermint.
I'm edgy about what the FDA is going to do, so until I get a handle on mixing and feel comfortable with it, I'm simply concentrating on getting enough nic for a very very long time! In the meantime, I'm reading and learning everything I can on DIY!
Poor Fran. You could have your own show! The Fran and Zap show - will she let the Zap survive?
I went on the DIY section and started a file with what sounded good and others enjoyed. Then went back and looked at flavors I needed the most.
75/25% is correct. NOT 33/66%!! Just tell me to SHUT UP!!
Ha ha. My initial estimate was 66/33 too until I grabbed my calculator. Not to worry, there's enough people on here who will check on us. The EjuiceMeUp calculator is wonderful, but Mike created his own. I tell him what I want to mix and he comes up with the %'s. He's my human DIY calculator!
Don't you worry about your stash Willie. Just play with what you mixed - you're bound to mix up something you'll be happy with and you won't have to depend on suppliers or regulations anymore. You can already see how far your money will go with what you've got - you've probably got enough for 20 years now!
Well Willie haven't hear back so hope your good.
Have to up roll the jeans and push up the sleeves and give the dog a bath and a groom. Because I spent his groom money on vaping!!!

I'm just a newby at this, but my understanding is that tobacco flavors need to steep to let the flavors develop. You'll have to taste what you've mixed and then add a little of this or that to suit your taste. Just make sure you make a note of what you've added because if you end up with a winner you'll want to know how to duplicate it. Iffy's rule about his lemon juice he adds to fruit flavors is 1 drop to 3 ml of juice. (I think he uses apple cider vinegar to bakery juices.) I wouldn't go higher than that to start. You can always add more if it's not enough. Now that you've mixed your base, just put some in a small bottle, taste what you've got, then add vinegar or EM and taste it, add some and taste it etc. Stop when its pretty good because it's easy to add just a little bit more and go over the edge and have it taste awful. At least that's what's happened to me. Check out Hoosier -

Printed it out and will mix it .. although I have to figure out the percentages and how much to do 30ml in total ..
Wow, it sounds like we're doing just about the same thing. I'm using OneNote which I'm finding invaluable.
I'm copying a lot into separate files also.
Janet, you're one lucky woman!
My dh is becoming more and more interested in my success with DIY. He quit smoking over 25 years ago, and I suspect that he will become a real asset with my DIY progress! He's a left brain thinker, and I need that logical and analytical mindset.
I tend to always have a ml or two left in my bottles. Since I mix my own, you know that I want to save money.
Solution to a bad mix: add either a bit of menthol to give it a cooler flavor, or add a bit of fireball to spice it up a bit.
I only ever had one juice I couldn'tt do anything with so far.

Microsoft Office OneNote is software that comes with Windows7. It has tabs for Personal Notebook, Work N/B!
Here is a much better explanation than I could offer.
