The cost of juice

[Chemical Bromance]

So I was chatting with a buddy from JKT about the vaping and the price of juice came up.
From my experience, the price of juice hovers around $30 for a 30ml bottle. It suddenly hit me that it's bloody expensive!
At that price, a litre would be $1,000! Even at half the price, thats more than I'd be comfortable to pay for a bottle of single malt. Holee crap!
Next mission: homemade juices anyone?

I know PH sells VG and there are lots of bake suppliers who will sell the concentrated flavours.
And Art Friend will sell the test tubes and some measuring flasks.
Anyone care to kick in some local-specific comments?

For long term DIY is the way to go.. But somehow I find it hard to replicate some of those real good ones.. Like mother's/unicorn milk, which I really like.
If you look hard enough you can probably get the necessary ingredients for juice, minus the nic of course, which is banned substances.

DIY is the way to go, don't let those juice-makers rob you any longer.

1000ml costs me around 20 bucks or so to make, and nothing tastes as good as home-made imo (although it does take a little practice to get there).

I've looked online for recipes but some of the flavourings seem to be Western centric. May be tricky to get in SG. For instance, I'd love to be able to replicate the King's Crest Duchess Reserve. The oak barrels will be hard to find tho. Hahahaha

I'm getting into diy juice too. As soon as I weaned off my nicotine addiction.

Make it yourself. End of line.

 

[Jugband]

DIY is the best decision I ever made. Totally agree, nothing taste as good as what you make yourself.

 

[errolng]

can't really be bothered to.
too lazy to put in the effort

 

[farmer]

getting NIC is the problem even if u DIY

 

[sgcloudchaser]

anybody have tried extracting nic locally ?

 

[crazyhendrix]

From what I read, you're gonna get the other alkaloids in tobacco when u do an extraction, not to mention---dangerous.

I think I'm gonna be OK with PG/VG

Yeah, finding a mix of flavor might just do it for me, even though the TH does gets to me. Just glad I'm not smoking anymore.

There are some amazing up and coming juice vendors that sell 120/180ml batches at huge discounts. One hit wonder makes a premium juice for only $60 for 180ml and I've tried 3 of their flavors and all were very good. Also just today I got a shipment from om vapors they have a sale going on till July 4th for 70% off. I paid $35 for 2 120ml bottles so $35 for 240ml and so far it tastes great I'm about to put in a huge order today. I think the code is ecf70 for anyone interested.

Dude, you KNOW the people on this sub-forum can't order that. We'd have the authorities on our ....

Hey mr. Bromance,

we talked about this a couple of weeks ago but I can't remeber which thread it was in. I'm still not satisfied with my recipe, but you might like to try banana-cream flavoring from TPA.

It's very good on it's own but also nice with one or two % of brown sugar and/or vanilla cupcake flavoring.

That's basically the recipe I'm trying to copy as there's something in TPA flavoring I'm sensitive to.

Any nice pop corn receipe?

That sounds pretty good. I'll hit you up when I start making my own juice.
