Super Easy DIY Method

[fabricator4]

Just got some new FA flavours today. I've had some success.

Tried Cam Blend at 5%. Smells odd and tastes like the south end of a north bound camel. Maybe it's supposed to?

Tried Desert Ship at 5%. A bit too much of the tobacco note. Smells good though, something spicy in there.

Tried Cam Blend at 3%, Desert Ship at 5%. A bit dry, not quite coming together. Added 2% Ethol Maltol.

Success!

I'm getting light tobacco (that northbound camel again) but nice. A richer note with spice (ginger!) coming through mid vape. Dry tobacco finish but _very_ pleasant.

This vapes nice at 7 watts (Also new Vamo2 today! Yay!) but 8 watts is too much for it.

I'm going to clean out one of my rebuildable clearos and vape this tomorrow on the twist. If I still like it by the end of the day I'll make a 30ml and let it steep.

Just dropping by to say THANK YOU!

I'm new to vaping (75 days) and found the vendor juices I have tried to be blah or soapy. I jumped into this DIY method with both feet and am very pleased with my results. This method is so easy. I agree that it's hard to use the calculator because different flavors, even from the same maker, have different %'s, at least for me. I agree with the 20 drop = 1ml is bs. I found when I measured it out to be more like 45 drops per ml. I have made up samples of individual flavors to see what the propper ratio is for my taste and go by smell from there when mixing the flavors together. I don't overanalize just kind of go for it Jedi style.

Now the Force is with me too!

W00t ? I have come to the conclusion that FA is not for my taste. I will order Some TFA and will see how that goes in a couple of weeks lol

The force is in all of us. It's what gives a ghetto jedi his power. It surrounds us and penetrates us, binds the galaxy together. Or something or other...

Glad it's working for ya.

Tobacco flavors is where FA is the weakest IMO. Royal is the only one I buy.

Try FA Desert Ship by making 10 ml of unflavored juice. Add 4 drops of DS flavoring. One of my favorite cig flavors.

4 drops into 10ml would = no flavor at all, especially w/ the way ecx is watering down flavors now..

Don't knock it until you try it. I taste plenty of flavor. Sorry about your luck. All my flavors from ECX are very strong.

 

[darkhood]

I don't have bad luck, my flavors are just weaker than normal. instead of 1-2 drops per 1ml i have to use 4-6 now. no biggie...i'm good.

Actually, it's not so silly with this one. The 5% I started using last night and this morning was a bit on the strong side. I didn't have time to refill the mini Vivi Nova while i was at work so swapped the whole tank for one of my regular vapes. Since then I can still smell it very stongly. There must a fingerints worth on the twist that just won't go away. I'm now vaping the second half of it. It's love/hate at the moment, funky, gingery, tobaccoey in turns. Strange.

You can make the same juice as mbv by using "flavor west" diy flavoring.

I know exact wont come....cuz MBV Butterscotch is really great....but if I can get something I like to stretch the budget on juice I will be happy. Then I want to start on a good caramel.....haven't found ANY out there that is sweet and caramellay ( is that a word) like candy caramels. All seem bland.

good to know

 

[Holbie]

yet again Darkhood more pearls of wisdom... I'm still listening

 

[Holbie]

Bread crust is wack...idk what possessed me to try it...inhaling vaporized bread crust sound like a good idea to anyone?

Bread crust and water vapor sounds like the jailbird special... maybe a new flavor for sale at the commissary... LOL

 

[Holbie]

Meanwhile me being me I just tainted an entire 120ml of hypno mist w/ freakin hazelnut...same color, just glanced at the h and didn't think to double check.. it's foul beyond belief lol. Rancid fetid mixture of despair. That is not a good flavor combo. Good thing I have a half liter left in the squirty bottle.

so dark would this be the first juice you've mixed that you were unable to Vape then? lol
I was beginning to think you were perfect till I came across this?

Penetrates =))

Try FA Desert Ship by making 10 ml of unflavored juice. Add 4 drops of DS flavoring. One of my favorite cig flavors.

That`s like 1.2% total flavour in juice. I mean, 1.2 PERCENT, i think u like the unflavoured VG )

Edit: Really ? Penetrates ?! LMAO

I think you like chemical over load. Flavors are not food ! LMFAO

 

[Holbie]

i mix like this, just made my second order, 500ml of 36mg unflavored
and six flavors all FA, for 56 bucks!!
and my first time i got 250mls and made half FA RY4 8% and 3% caramel,
and half maxx blend at 8%
i used a 3 ml pipet so it took a while but was very easy
I first made two small 5 ml sample batches and they were good so i just went for it
after 2 weeks of steeping they are really good!!
i did start useing them right away.
this is the only way i will do juice now, for the price, 56 bucks
it should last me 4 or 5 months!! not bad at all, 10 bucks a month
oh i also made a red bull with lemon lime that is really nice too!

Where did you find that deal?

 

[darkhood]

so dark would this be the first juice you've mixed that you were unable to Vape then? lol

Yea that was a lil humiliating lol but it was an accident so I don't count it as a failure exactly just an unfortunate mishap.
