Random DIY mixing and More

I don't like TFA Cranberry because I can't vape it fast enough. For the first few days I love the tartness but in less than a week it starts turning sweet to the point of yuck.

I do like the FLV Cranberry.It's not super tart but it doesn't fade.

I can't yet comment on the SC Cranberry. I did buy it but haven't done anything with it as yet. Life hit me with a few bricks and I'm trying to get back to whatever is my new normal now.

I do have a couple questions which I'll take one at a time. I bought a scale awhile back and I never calibrated it which I want to do. I have the SF-400D. Question is how do I calibrate the scale? I do not have weights. If I need them I'll have to get some.

Most are already calibrated when you buy them. As for our purposes, when you set the bottle to hold the ingredients on the scale hit the tare button and it goes to zero all is good to start adding ingredients. After eack one added hit tare and add next ingredient.

That is what I do.

That is what I do.

Then it should be good to go. If you added say 3 grams and that is what the machine says then its weigh/gram is correct.

@FranC , check this for calibration without weights:

OK,ty. Weighed a new quarter and my scale is exact for the given weight.

My reason was that I don't have and didn't want to buy FLV Lemonade. I subbed VTA Sour Lemon for the Lemony Sicily because I think it is a better lemon and doesn't fade as quickly. I am sure the recipe is delicious as Nick originally wrote it.

Good reason! I don’t want to buy FLV Lemonade either at least not right now so I’ll be mixing your version too!

My next question....I have 100mg nic. I want to mix my base mix in 120ml bottles.How much nic do I add to each bottle to have an end mix of 6mg? I figured this as 7.2ml of nic in each bottle. Checking to see if that is correct.

I get 7.46 for 6% in 120ml batches.

This is correct for gram weight. @FranC 7.2 is for ml. Both are correct depending on what measure of units you are using and how you are mixing your recipes.

Yes,that is what i got. I mix my base by ml and use the scale in grams for my mixes.

 

[FranC]

I have big syringes (12ml) that I use to measure the nic in my base mixes. I pour in the VG and PG by eye as I'm not that fussy.

I get 7.46 for 6% in 120ml batches.

I have made note of the gram measurement also. I may wish to go that route sometime.Thanks

Eight vape had the advken cp tf rta on sale for 4.99 the other day so I grabbed a couple. I got them today. I hadn’t really heard of them but read some reviews. Easy to build and pretty decent flavor. I put a 316 fused Clapton coil in. It’s performing well.

Another one I've never heard of.

 

[hittman]

It wasn’t popular, at least I don’t think so. It’s a single coil rta. The flavor so far is quite good. I’ll see how it holds up with a trip to work tomorrow.

 

[FranC]

Hopefully it lasts that long.......LOL

I will be home this weekend because my daughter is attending some girl scout shin-dig I have zero interest in. I may have to mix some juice to amuse myself.

I also just remembered my pepper mix. I hope I remember to try that tomorrow.

I’ve got another coffee mix to try and want to mix a couple lemonade recipes I found.

 

[Heartsdelight]

I used VT Sour Lemon and VT Lemonade Clear.

Shattered Lemon
Fizzy Sherbet (VTA) 5%
Lemon (FE) 2%
Lemonade Clear (VTA) 3%
Sour Lemon (VTA) 2% (or use FA Lemon Sicily or INW Shisha Lemon
SugarDaddy (Reg) (Rick's) 1% (or your favorite sweetener)
WS-23 30% 1.5% (or to taste)
It really is a S&V recipe. The LA Lemonade is good right off for me. I let it sit overnight just to settle. The VTA Lemonade is better after a week.

Thanks very much!

I’ve heard about it.
