I love this juice, but I can't find it anywhere in Northern California nobody has heard of it or the place where I got from originally had troubles getting orders filled so they stopped carrying it.

I have never brewed up e-juice on my own ever or anything like but the trouble of getting regular supply of this juice is something that would be worth the investment.

I have watched videos on how people make it seems pretty simple once you have the gear, but I have no idea how to replicate a recipe or a method for figuring it out.

So how is this done? I don't want to guess I want to use what ever they are using and try to get 90% first pass, then improve on that.

Any information about this would be appreciated!

First, I'm no DIY expert, but I've been doing it for several years, so I'll give answering your questions a shot.

I have watched videos on how people make it seems pretty simple once you have the gear, but I have no idea how to replicate a recipe or a method for figuring it out.

Making DIY eliquid isn't hard to do at all. However, cloning an eliquid isn't simple by any means. There are many who literally try for years, and never get it.

So how is this done? I don't want to guess I want to use what ever they are using and try to get 90% first pass, then improve on that.

You've got some really high expectations there! Good luck finding out exactly what flavorings, and at what % they use those, to make the eliquid you want. I've never known of a company that shares that information. Best thing you could do...is search some eliquid recipe sites hopefully for a clone or 2. Try those and then see what you think they need, to be as close to "the real thing" as you can get it.

Yeah could not find something on ELR, could you describe the flavour profile - sorry I have no idea what this is. But DIY is super fun, and easy - I could link you tons of video's to get you started, all on youtube.

You could always order it online!

Sqeez berryade - Google Search

I don't like using unsecure sites, which is all the net. I would rather just walk in to a store and pay cash or even have the store order it for me. I had id theft issues in the past and this cured me of all online purchasing. I do use gift cards that I pay cash for so I have thought this might be a way to buy things online.

Also if they ban flavors I want to start learning now so I can continue to vape the way I want to.

So far my research on how people clone juices that they love is by tasting them and figuring out but this takes a lot of knowledge and time and a trained pallet which I do not have.

Looks like a few of what I would call "pros" who trained to do this stream and do live mixing so I might pay them to figure it out for me. The more I research the more I realize how steep the curve is and paying a pro mixer to figure out recipe is the shortest route to success.

I guess if you just want one juice this would make total sense - however the whole thing with DIY is to provide you with variety, and options. In your quest to re-create this juice, you might stumble upon a concentrate that you like even more than this juice.

Thank you! I am using Youtube right now to do the research and watching all the videos at 1.5x speed and found some good sources and gained a lot of knowledge in the last few hours.

DYIORDIE has live mix of my other favorite Lemon Twist: Pink Punch Lemonade. This guy is a badass! :)

Many people get a prepaid VISA card, load whatever amount you want on it, and use it online. You can reload it whenever you need/want to.

I’ve been DIYing for over 4 years. I have over 100 flavors. I only cloned one commercial juice successfully, and that was because I bought that company’s flavoring and they were kind enough to also give some details on how it was made.

I guess I could have cloned others, along the way, but I have not bought any commercial juice since I started DIY. I only ever bought a couple juices I liked. Which is why I turned to mixing.

If you go about it like you are suggesting, I see nothing but frustration in your future.

Mixing is easy, but you pay your dues. There is almost certainly no exact recipe for your favorite juice out there. There are so many flavors that might be in it, so many brands of flavors, almost impossible to guess, infinite combinations.

All of us mixers do our own thing, but one thing we have in common is, we’ve all learned what we know by process.

Nobody just bought A, B, and C and came away with a perfect clone.

So buy your juice or make it... but if you do decide to DIY just be aware that you’ll have some testing to do. And eventually you’ll have some good juice.
