I get that too... and it's usually a flavor or flavors that I wouldn't like, even if I did have them -- lemon or lime or raspberry or watermelon. Eeeeuuuwww.
What I do is go around reading all the recipes I can find for a given sort of flavor -- I must have looked at 50 recipes for something vaguely strawberry-and-cream-ish -- then make my own recipe, based on the flavors I DO HAVE. The strawberry-and-cream I make is better than ANYTHING I've tasted in a vape shop, or bought.

That is exactly why I have so many. Most are the little 15ml or 10ml bottles. I use a dozen or so TPA/TFA flavors most of the time. I ended up getting those in 4oz sizes.
However, I have mostly switched from TPA/TFA flavors to Bakers which are super concentrated, so 10ml lasts a loooooong time. I have been vaping those almost exclusively since I got them about 2 months ago. I love those.

I just wish I had gotten interested in DIY a long time ago. It's fun and I could have saved a ton of money I wasted on buying flavors from vendors that I didn't like. The nice thing about DIY too is that you can use a flavor with different recipes to get different results.
I used ry4 double flavoring for a while but haven't in a while. It seemed to need a long steep time.
I've been using the DRY4 at about 7%. It's good to me right after it's mixed.
The double was ok at around 8-10% right after mixing but I thought the flavor did get better quite a bit after steeping. I did see someone post an ry4 recipe on this thread but I didn't copy it down.
I make juice for myself and maybe ten or so friends. We seem to all have completely different taste, which leads to me buying some flavors that I know I wont vape. Even with a dozen of us vaping different recipes, I still probably dont use a third of the flavors I have, but on the upside, if I see a recipe posted that looks interesting, chances are I have what I need to whip up a batch. I love the Russian flavors also, but I dont play with them as much as I'd like. The amounts needed are so small, they are kind of hard to work with in a multi flavor mix unless you're making a big bottle. Ten ml samples are all but impossible. Awesome flavors though
Has anyone tried the Ginger Ale flavor? I saw it the other day at BCV and was STRONGLY tempted.. but I thought I'd ask this crowd of genius mixers before plopping down the cash. I just got this INW Cherries flavor, supposed to be sweet rather than tart, and if that Ginger Ale flavor is any good, I thought I'd try my own version of "Shirley Temple" or Code Red... the Code Red I got from Killer Juice many months ago was not good at all; didn't taste like Code Red, that's for sure, and then I found out that it's 60% VG, so I wouldn't be able to vape that even if I liked it.

I haven't tried ginger ale yet but I just got Mountain Dew and fruit punch on my order yesterday. I thought they might be fun to try. I also got some vanilla flavors that I've been lacking. I almost forgot, I got dragon fruit to try too. I'm pretty sure I as a recipe or two around here using dragon fruit.
Hello, I just wanted to thank everyone for the recipes and advice. Been following for a year now and have apretty good inventory. Will post a recipe when I think its worthy. I havent seen anyone mention the longevity of the TFA flavors. I put mine in a glass 120ml. bottle when I recieve them and some are over a year old. Do you guys think these will last a few years this way. Any advice or info greatly appreciated. Thanks
Hi all, new to DYI and I'm looking for a specific recipe. I've searched and not seen it posted. My favorite ejuice is from a local B&M called Rumchata. I noticed yesterday that TFA has the Rumchata flavor as a new addition. Has anyone tried it yet? Has anyone got a good recipe for Rumchata? I hate paying the inflated B&M prices. I did order the Rumchata, and a few other flavors, from TFA yesterday evening and want to be ready to mix when it gets here. In the mean time, I will be reading this thread backwards to get caught up and find new recipes to copy down.
Welcome Diver!
I was just looking at a bottle of Rumchata yesterday, and I believe it's a combo of horchata, cinnamon, and rum (with some vanilla) That sounds DIVINE as a combination.
I've not purchased the Rumchata flavoring, but I might be tempted to mix my own (I have all those components)...
There's a Dropbox - ECF Recipes
This has all kinds of info - recipes formatted (after you unzip them) for the e-juicemeup calculator. Flavoring percentage recommendations, etc.
ItTechy and Bill's Magic Vapor are the curators....

I tried the Code Red from Killer last summer - I kinda liked it. It was a cherry "punch" that I'd been searching for. I love Code Red as a beverage - been trying to replicate with the Citrus Punch and Wild Cherry (from Capella) - I'm close, but not quite there yet...
Ginger Ale sounds yummy (just popped open a can this morning
)

I'm a Canada Dry fan for about half a century now, and when I first tasted Code Red, courtesy of my son, I couldn't believe it -- Shirley Temple! Back in the early 60's, when I was a very little girl, and going Out to Dinner was still something people dressed up for, my parents would always get me a Shirley Temple while they drank their aperitifs -- I just loved the little umbrella they put in it for me, like a Big Girl Drink!
I think I gotta add that Ginger Ale flavor to my next order from BCV. But that might not be for a while, since I just got a 30ml of Vanilla Swirl, and a couple of INW flavors I'm going to try for a cherry pipe tobacco flavor.

Ive got the ginger ale. I mix it with kentucky bourbon for my favorite cocktail vape. Its pretty true in flavor, just needs the carbonation

Oooooh - I love me the smell of cherry pipe tobacco (reminds me of my Dad
) I just whipped up some Honey Tobacco (I think it was Trophyfish's recipe) One of the comments was to add a touch of cherry. I went for the original (I'd overdone the almond first time - backed it of substantially this time around.) If it's a winner, next batch will have the cherry addition!- Status
