Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

I have 2+ litres of nic and that's good for me.

I also have an empty tank so I need a flavor change.

With the ban in effect no one will ship to them

Good thing I don't live in MA.

If push came to shove and my state did the same thing I have plenty of friends who live in other states that I can ship it to. MA is extreme. They've always been extreme. NC is not.

I have the means to buy nic in bulk, but I'm not sure I can make a vape that I actually will enjoy. This is my first shot at making juice so I didn't see the need for a mass order.




I reside in SC and I have a good feeling the governor is not going to put vape shops and ban all vaping equipment and materials needed to make e-juice illegal overnight.

Hope your optimism prevails, but...

As I said on another thread. I'm just waiting to see what the Live Free or Die State does....................

Nothing that suggests a South Carolinian couldn't purchase nic.

That remains to be seen.

If you let us know here what kind of flavors you like then we might be able to make some suggestions on recipes.

As far as flavors go I like Caramel Custard, Creme brulee, and then I'm lost. I can't count the number of juice bottles I've poured down the drain. Heathers Heavenly Vape has a juice called Sweet Chaos and I love it, but it's $20.00 for 30ml. I'm sure it's a complex mix.

I wont spend $1000 for nic on connecting dots that aren't there.

Sounds like everyone on this thread has things figured out to make them comfortable. I have dabbled in DIY for years but couldn't make anything that rivaled my favorite retail liquid. I am I guess a supertaster. That doesn't mean I am great at mixing, lol or explaining what I am tasting but it does make it difficult to find something I can vape all the time. I finally realized, hey..my vendor is using the same type stuff to make the one I like so I should be able to do the same. So I got back into DIY full force.

Just learned that my fav from Vapewild is being discontinued. I asked if they would release the recipe and was told no....won't be buying anymore from them. I am determined to replicate that juice as soon as I get caught up and can devote time to it.

As for overbuying, I haven't done any buying based on the latest crap. I regularly buy a new thing or two for fun, it is my entertainment.

Your flavor menu is twice what mine is.

I've been saying for years that I envy people who can enjoy a wide variety of flavors. I see people on this thread who tell us what they're vaping and what they will vape tomorrow, the next day, blah blah blah. I want to slap some of you guys.

Geeez,Bronze. I suggested a couple liters, not a $1000 purchase.

We're all in different places. For the veteran DIYers I can understand why they would want to be fully stocked right now. They know what they like. I'm not there yet. Not sure DIY is viable for me just yet. However, one thing I am getting a sense of is people overbuying. The panic makes them open their bank accounts and unload on a stockpile of gear that they really don't need but feel panicked into buying it anyway. And the profiteers are tapping into that. Just my observation.

I WILL NOT go back to tobacco, except to order 1 ounce bulk pipe tobaccos for flavor extraction (which I have already written about on the ECF). I don't know if my artificial flavors will last for years, but there are flavored pipe tobaccos. @hittman alluded to butterscotch and honey & chocolate. I also know of vanilla & chocolate, maple & vanilla, black cherry, toffee and a nutmeg & cinnamon flavor tobaccos. That's not even counting the blended tobaccos I know about.
I can vape any flavor I want for years to come. Screw 'em.

Neither would I. But $100 for a lifetime supply ?

Does anyone know of a good coconut? The one I bought from TFA has this twang to it and aftertaste that I.cannot.vape even if I tried. I can't even smell it now for wanting to hurl. TIA

So I would look for recipes for the 2 things you like. There are probably some buried in this thread.

Is your chocolate NET real sweet, Brett? That sounds good.

Say Pop, you mentioned you were doing a choco chip recipe. Is it any good and do you have that recipe?
