I tried Keoke Coffee with Pralines and Cream (PG, VG and 555) this morning...yuck. The coffee is strong (I only used 8% coffee as recommended in another thread) and almost bitter. I thought the Pralines and Cream would be sweet?

I have here: Coconut, Tutti Frutti (yeah, I know...coloring), Creme de Menthe (also has small amount of coloring: blue and yellow), Chocolate Hazelnut, English Toffee, Pralines and Cream, Keoke Coffee and Cinnamon Roll.

Which that I have are sweet and recs for additional ones?

I'm still looking for bottles, I don't want to order them online. I refuse to pay more for shipping than my actual order will be. In the meantime, I'm mixing only 2.5ml testers because if I don't like it, I don't feel so bad dumping it out.

Same here

I`ve been trying to get dropper bottles locally here since I started vaping.

Only found 5ml ones, no luck with 3ml.. :mad:

The only places that I can get them are from US.

Even the UK sites are not worth it, or are wholesale only ....grrrr

This is crazy

A local pharmacy did have some larger ones but they were actually too big for small batches and they wanted $3.00 apiece for them. :(

I'm waiting for MidWest Vapor here in the US to get their 36mg unflavored juice back in so I can just get bottles from him when I order that but who knows how long that will be.

I really didn't think they'd be that hard to find....but then I do live in Podunk (country bumpkin-like area).

Here is a copy of the invoice that I received from a real gentleman, from an US company - www.UltralightDesigns.com

I appreciate his offer, and understand that it is the lowest I can be charged for shipping to "the end of the world" ...but anyways 10$ total for 4 plastic dropper bottles seems a lot to me and I will have to pass this offer.


Too sad it is the only supplier that I`ve found that is actually willing to sell me what I want... (except that he does not have glass dropper bottles)

I just go to the dollar store and get the $1 eye drops for redness. Clean the bottle out very well and use it. It's a decent size but I'd really like something that I don't have to remove the dropper part with pliers. A lot of suppliers just sell those ones (where the dropper is part of the plastic bottle) and that's not what I want.

Midwest Vapor won't ship to you? It may be worth it if you ordered other items and they have the glass dropper bottles.

this forum is at the bottom of the main page, below the suppliers. Truck Driving Mouse is going by U.S. plastics and is taking orders to be picked at the factory. Of course there are no glass bottles! Anyway check him out. Juicey Juice sells the plastic bottles and they have some tiny glass bottles.
Walrus can direct you to glass bottles. He is also in the Classified section..P.M. him so as not to clutter his E-Liquid thread.
To sweeten, I was told to add v.g. or glycerin.

The pralines is sweet but full of crud, it leaves a coating on the top and I have ruled it out to use for more then just a few drops. The english Toffee is also very sweet but requires quote a bit to eeally taste the sweetness. Cotton Candy is also very sweet but does not taste like cotton candy. I am currently mixing with a Caremel based liquid because I thought it would be sweet but is not. I did find that using bavarian cream with the caramel base taste just like RY4, weird. It seems that it takes 15% or more to really taste the sweetness. I love the English Toffee in everything because with enough it sweetens anything.

Have any of you tried using glass sample bottles - the kind that perfume comes in? They are usually not too hard to find at beauty supplies. The hold only a few milligrams of liquid. I have to get some too because I am starting to mix my own stuff. Quite a waste to mix up a large batch only to find out it's awful!


Excellent tip, Faethe, thanks so much!

Hey Shadowdr,


Can you tell me what percentages you use or what your recipe is with the caramel and bavarian creme to get close to RY4. I have been failing at making my own.

Thanks
I used 36mg caramel from MyVaporstore
8 ml Caramel juice
8 ml of glycerine
2 ml of Loranns Barvarian Cream
5 drops vanilla
The important stuff is just the caramel, barvarian cream and vanilla. But this is just what I wrote down for my reference. Weird how it taste smokey, my wife thinks it taste a lot like a cigarette but I don't know.

Place for lots of sizes (small & larger) Glass bottles w/glass droppers - Amber & Blue bottles

Amber, Cobalt, and Recycled Glass Bottles from Mountain Rose Herbs

Plastic Bottles:
Oil and Cosmetic Bottles from Mountain Rose

Shipping fee a bit high, but if you need the bottles..........

That's the issue. I refuse to pay more for shipping than my order will be (it's a matter of principles....hehe)

MidWest Vapor has both unflavored juice AND small glass bottles with dropper lids...they're just out of stock on the juice so hopefully it'll be back in soon.

I haven't tried those, I want a dropper in the lid. I've been mixing up 2ml testers so I don't feel bad dumping it if it's a dud.

Made up a batch today that is pretty yummy:

2ml 18mg unflavored juice from TW
1ml VG
1/3 ml English toffee (lorann)
1/3 ml Chocolate (lorann)

just made a small batch to see if I like it and I can't seem to put it down yet lol, very good vape.

I make a similar flavor but use Chocolate Hazelnut instead of chocolate, probably very similar ratio too. I add a drop or two of menthol flavoring too.
