Not pie cheese cake. A whole different aminal you know like a horse of a different color or something. That being said My Blackberry swirl cheesecake is top of the list.

Sooo... about to place my very first DIY juice order tomorrow. Decided to get the stuff from Pink Mule, who are based in Netherlands, after some recommendations from European memebers.
Have decided to get a 80/20 base with 6mg/ml of nic. Trying to decide what flavours to get.

Anyone has some suggestions for fool-proof recipes, that wouldn't require more than two, or three flavours?
At the moment I'm pondering on getting blueberry, peach and vanilla custard. Perhaps grab some dark cherries, so I can mix either blueberry+peach+custard, or cherry+peach+custard.

Whatcha think? :)

Thanks!!!

Can't really advise on recipes, most of mine are rather complex... but the TFA Cherry Extract is a great flavor; not too sweet, and not medicinal (no cough syrup or cough drops!).

I've been messing with my DIY and so far, all my stuff is a little strong on flavor. After vaping on it for a little bit, it kinda makes me sick. Kinda like when you eat a lot of super rich foods.

I'm going to have to tone down the flavoring I think....

Some of the recipes I have found use a combined flavor % of up to 20%!

That's a little too rich for my lungs.

A lot of that depends on the flavorings you use. I use FA and avg around 5% on flavorings, some of them I can go as low as 2% and still get a nice flavor from.

When I was making my feeble attempt at DIY everybody was saying average 20% flavorings I did a few attempts and about blew my socks off. I still have about 300+ ml of 12mg 80/20 VG/PG in my freezer.

I've just started DIYing and found that single flavours are best around 10-13%. I've yet to try my hand at more than one flavour, but it's definitely on it's way.
I just can't believe how much money I saved.

I have so many flavors I haven't used it isn't funny. I like almost everything they represent, but wasted cost of failed mixing can take its toll and many of the recipes I have found are personalized favorites with little Verification by other vapers. I have found a few of them to be doosies :mad: and not even close enough to correct.

DDS (down Drain Syndrome) Bites.

But I keep looking.
Every week I find new and interesting recipes.
I add them to my Ejuicemeup program
Then promptly forget I found them
:facepalm:

Even with TPA, I almost never went above 15% and most of the time closer to 10%. FA flavors are stronger so you need way less of them than you do others.

If there is anything that "might" cause problems long term it would be the flavorings, as no flavoring is made for our usage, because of this I like to keep %'s in juice as low as I can.

Dose dictates the poison.

While I agree on light flavoring is the safer route, some might misunderstand.

Flavor strength - in original Flavoring form is Flavor to Carrier.

Super concentrates are almost All flavor and only require a drop or to to match the strength of a ml of another flavor in a high volume carrier. Both mixed at an equal recommended rate may have the same amount of Flavoring.

Those wishing to try vaping Light flavors should understand we mean less overall flavoring.
I reduced my Milk Chocolate Toffee Cappuccino ADV by 50% flavoring a few months ago and fund I actually like it Much more this way.
What was good became great, for me.(YMMV)
