Second Go Round with DIY

[Mare1077]

I am toying with trying DIY again. .The first time I tried it, I thought "I am a scientist, I can do this no problem. Just mix the components together..." .However, most of my juices, while perfectly vapable, were not necessarily as good as buying it from a vendor. .

Now, I have the itch to try it again. .For one, my husband, who has never really smoked and not addicted to nicotine, has decided he likes the flavors and wants to vape for fun. .So, I have bought him some no-nic juice, but the price is no better than mine with nicotine. This really doesn't seem right to me. So, I am revisiting the whole DIY idea. The budget is kind of tight and I would like to save wherever I can.

I guess I am just looking for that support that everyone here is so dang good at. Tell me it isn't that hard to make good juice. .Mostly what I enjoy vaping are simple fruit flavors, so it shouldn't be that difficult. Nic (or no nic), pg, vg and a little flavor...

I also don't necessarily want to go crazy buying a bunch of stuff only to find out that I don't like what I make. .

The new super concentrated flavoring that is out makes diy very easy. Ecigexpress and vapingzone sells this. Add 1-4% to your base nicotine, steep, wait and enjoy.

DIY is easy - as long as you are not trying to replicate the taste of a commercially bought liquid! They arrived at their flavors by judicious trial and error...

I usually recommend Capella's for beginners because they are hard to hit level 7 with. (Level 7 is from my flavoring levels blog)

This means that too much tastes like too much which is not the case for most flavorings.

Also Capella's are seldom "one dimensional", so while it is exceedingly rare for me to only use one, and only one, flavoring in a mix, it can be done with Capella's and still make some fairly good juice.

The super concentrated flavorings from ECX and VZ may be the next in line in my recommendations for beginners, but they are used at a much lower % than many other flavorings and they will hit level 7 and above pretty quickly.

But, yes, it is easy, but it only get easier with practice. A few bad mixes are a great thing, if, and only if, you learn from them. Learning from the bad tasting juice is how it became easy for me, so I think it's a great thing.

It's also important to remember that it's not always necessary to mix a plethora of da j00se. Some of my best DIY blends consist of only a couple flavors with a pinch of sweetener. When I first started I tried mixing 5 and 6 flavors each time and they always had terrible tastes.
