I love this stuff. I posted this for someone's thread, but wanted to pass it on for more people who may be interested. Especially DIY newbies.
I do DIY very simply. The cartos that I like best are the chocolate at V4L. I ordered their VG chocolate liquid for refill and found I liked that too. My reason for DIY was to save money. My nic level for the juice I was ordering from them was already down to 6 mg, which was only $8 for 30 ml. So I simply ordered the same juice in 36mg/30ml. (Same price, which is very reasonable if you look at the cost of "plain" 36 mg nicotine liquid at most places - it's usually a lot more expensive than that.)
When I make a bottle of liquid I fill it up about 1/5th the way with the V4L 36mg juice. Then I add about the same amount of Capella's Dark Chocolate flavoring. I fill the rest of the way with VG from Walmart ($3, and has a dropper top, so no messing with needles for thick ole VG - that's a pain). Add 1-2 drops of Capella's Super Sweet. There ya go, that's all there is to it (unless you want to add some PG, which Capella also carries, just use less VG). The only equipment needed is an eyedropper for the favoring because after the first normal-sized bottle was used up, I needed to get the buik size bottle, I was using so much of it. The first time I ordered the flavor I got the usual drip tip bottle, so the eyedropper just refills that one for me out of the bulk bottle. No big deal.
So I can make a 30 ml bottle of juice for about $3, and that lasts me 2 weeks. Not bad.
I like that flavor so much more than all of the others that I've tried, I don't want to branch out. Maybe sometime. But the same principle can apply. Since I also vape zero mg sometimes, I've tried making this DIY without the V4L liquid and it tastes the same. So when I get around to it, I intend to order some "plain" nic liquid at high mg just in case a ban happens someday, then I'll be well supplied.
Anyway... fwiw that's my "half-homemade" approach to it which is very easy and doesn't require much if any equipment.
p.s. Added bonus - now I use the Super Sweet in my coffee, so I've kicked the nasty artifical sweeteners too. (And some chocolate drops in the coffee ain't bad either.)
