You can buy some "zero nic" juice in the same flavors and dilute what you have to 6 mg without losing any of the flavor. Just keep in mind that some days are less stressful than others and always keep some stronger nic juice available for the days when "Stuff" happens.
Congrats!
Relax, Enjoy!

That's the plan for my 'favorites'. And I do plan on keeping some higher nic levels around. Not sure what to do with the ones I consider unvapable though...just plain don't like them.

I have some extreme menthol and some fireball to add to those. If that doesn't work, it goes down the drain!

In a number of places (including this thread, maybe) I've read where people try something months after they categorize it as "not worth vaping" and find it now is quite enjoyable. There seem to be different opinions regarding whether this is due to change in taste perceptions or due to the taste actually improving with time.

Thanks to Kena, two of them are now 'vape-able'. I mixed a menthol that's just 'ok' with the tobacco I hated, and came up with something I can tolerate. The third one, well I'll find someone who wants it. It makes me feel slightly ill, too expensive to dump and most people like it.

Soaking that CE5 in hot water or cheap vodka may help ungunk it.
That's awesome that so many family members are willing and able to be with your MIL at the hospital! Having a Dr. in the family can't hurt either. :)

@molli
Glad that you were able to salvage some of those juices. :thumbs:

@bells
I've experience that several times with juices that I've come back to a month or more later. I think in most cases that it did actually improve greatly with aging. But there may be a tad of my tastes changing too. :)

@semi
Great reminder about letting freshly charged batts sit a while before using. Since so many of us in this thread are afflicted with CRS...we need reminders like that OFTEN. LOL

Batts - I charge them in a charging bag outside on my concrete porch (it is not flammable). I do not watch them every minute, but do peek out the window once in a while. I try not to overcharge or even fully charge my batts to extend their life. I respect, but do not fear them.

And to add, I never use a freshly charged batt - always let it sit and settle for awhile. To date, from what I have read, this is the greatest safety precaution to take. I have enough batts to allow that - not as many as Mike and Janet, but enough not to be caught with all dead batts...

OK... then I need more batts, just to nevah be in a panic re: charging.

In other news, the CE5 seems to have forgiven me and appears to be working fine.

OK, I'm throwing my best guess out there as to what CRS means in these contexts: Can't Remember S__t?

:thumbs:

Did I hear someone mention bacon?

Sounds yummy! :p

Did you get some DH? Love his description! LOL "I know how it sounds, but think about it. Bacon makes everything better, right? This is no exception! Bacon lovers unite! VAPE BACON!"

Yep I got another 1000 too!

Ok...now Robin has joined the ranks of those ready for the zombie apocalypse, or FDA slapdown. :)
How was that toffee coffee extract that you made. Any good? I just made one with a hazelnut/cinnamon coffee that turned out really tasty.

Gloria, it tasted just like fresh ground beans! I made 30ml of the Butter Rum Toffee Coffee and I sucked down all but maybe 4-5 ml. doing the extract was the way to go!
I ended up with a extraction of about 30ml, from 2/30ml pg start!

Awesome! Now where did ya get this yummy sounding coffee? And which extraction method did you use please? And what % did you mix with base? I'm all ears about making good coffee flavored juice. :)

Ya'll need to stop fueling my paranoia!

Nope, not yet. But, it does make me just curious enough to consider it!

I have got to get up off my lazy behind and try this!
