Hello Members,
Recently I have been mixing and matching and enjoying making my own DIY juices. I have had some excellent success stories with mixes such as:
-Chocolate
-Strawberry
-RedBull
-Vanilla Custard
-After 8
and more... recently I experienced my first yuk juice as I will call it. I picked up a 3ml bottle of DK Tobacco Base flavoring from my friend Jack at Happy Vapor, I got home and began mixing. I know I probably made a mistake in the recipe I made by using way too much DK Tob base, but I ended up making it at 15% flavoring to a 10ml bottle. Took a whif and almost gagged.
I tried to vape it and actually did gag lol. Picture walking out into a robust garden in the middle of the spring time on a hot day when all the flowers are blooming and you can smell the heavy odor of blooming flower pedals and roses........ yeah...... there's my juice I can add this as a replacement to ipecac syrup if I wanted.
The good news... All was not lost. I thinned the bejeabus out of this 10ml batch, added a bit more PG Nic base bringing it back up to 9mg (my current level and dropping) and added the following flavors:
Strawberry, Chocolate, Caramel and was able to salvage the juice to a point where it is vapable now.
In review: This would be a very good flavor to use in very low moderation. I would say 1-2% flavoring... 3 max. And would probably go well with Tobacco Absolute and other Tobacco flavorings.
Lesson learned.... I make great Juice bases at 70/30 with nic.... but I have to learn to start lightly with the flavoring before I create the mother of all juices that would drop an army
