Not a bad deal.
Bulk Apothecary is a little cheaper though. A gallon of each runs $40.41 when you use their coupon (savings10). That is including shipping as well.
Edit
Bulk Apothecary lists by weight, VG is 10lbs and PG is 8lbs.

MyFreedomSmokes carries Nicotine, and sometimes PG and VG for great pricing, as well. Get on their mailing lists and buy Nicotine (100 mg/ml) for $40 delivered. Hard to beat their sales. So, several good sources. I buy VG by the bucket from Bulk Apothecary and PG by the Liter from Amazon and others. shop around. Great deals out there.
My bottles from Fasttech shipped yesterday, I choose PET this time, only ordered 25 of them though. As soon as I get them I'll order some more if I like them,
Twenty-five will soon be gone, I give away probably more than I use.
Also with that bottle order that's coming is a Hot Cig TGT II

You can get China made bottles for about $10 - 12 for 50 bottles on Amazon. I use these a lot for samples. That's delivered. Takes about ten days.
Thanks for the info!
I'm well stocked at the moment but I will keep them in mind!
Thanks Bill, 50 of them coming for $9.80 shipped. That's half of what I paid with Fasttech.

*Finally* had a chance to mix the Flamingo. Really nice, I think it's definitely growing on me. I love how clear it is, it seems like it wouldn't gunk up coils the way my strawberry and cream does, which would sure be a nice change!!
I did add some Flash, just cuz I can't deal with vapes that have no TH, but it occurred to me just now to wonder about maybe adding a touch of Koolada. Also wondering about experimenting with a strawberry/blueberry/coconut flavor.

I had mixed up some of Bill's Cream Fantastico (Blueberry/Strawberry/Cream) a couple of weeks ago, and I really love how it's mellowed and smoothed out. Never thought about dropping in some coconut - I bet that would be killer. I may download some of that 30mL batch into a 6mL bottle and add a touch of coconut, just because you have my tastebuds interested. I'm going to whirl about 1-2% (overall total flavoring based on original recipe) and maybe a touch more sweetener with a little snort of PG/VG base. Yes, there will be some dilution of the original, but eh, unconcerned by that.
How are your Mom and Stepdad doing?
Can somebody throw me a link? Can't find anything on Amazon even close to that.
Thanks!

Found the same ones that I bought last night from the same seller for $1.81 cheaper, also seen they are coming from Hong Kong (i'm OK with that)
My stepfather is doing very well; came thru the surgery just great, and his doctors are very pleased with his progress. My mom is very relieved, as well as being as annoying as ever.
We're going up today to do our monthly housecleaning, which should be fairly light, given that he hasn't been there in a week, and she and my aunt have been staying in a motel near the hospital for a large portion of that week. But he'll be able to come home to a nice clean house, and not have to endure the roaring of the vacuum when he's still trying to rest a lot. I think they're going to move him to a "regular" room today, so he'll probably be coming home one day this week.Good reminder about the Cream Fantastico, I had forgotten about that one -- so I may just add a bit of coconut to that one, instead of muddying up the small bit of the Flamingo I made -- which is very good, though of course it seems a bit odd to my tastebuds after several months of strawberry + all the cream/vanilla in my strawberries and cream. But the Flamingo definitely has more TH than my strawberry mix, so I foresee it becoming a headliner pretty quickly.

Thanks, glad you like it. It's been my ADV for months now. [emoji4]
OMG I'm so embarrassed! That was so easy. I was searching "up the wrong tree" the whole time.
Thanks!

I tried looking for this recipe how far back is it?? Been looking for a MM clone and have only found one :/
Hi everyone,
I've been lurking around for quite some time and have learned a lot from this thread. I would like to add my contribution to this thread with MY take on the infamous Mother's Milk. This is a recipe that I have been working on for a long time and I think I've gotten really close to nailing it. Please share it if you'd like, however, please don't claim it as yours.

Here you go.
You are the best thank you!, I'll need to pick up 2 of those flavors yet but looks very promising! My order is out for delivery and I have work soon hoping to get my flavors before I go in so I can make some dragons blood
After going through my sample bottle of mango custard,i decided it's definitely a juice i want to keep around haha,so i made up a 30ml of it.While i was at it,i finally made a sample of the lemon cake recipe that was posted month's ago,yeah i am a little behind haha,and also mixed up some of dwcraig1's peanut brittle.I haven't tried either of these new ones yet,but defnitely looking forward to trying both.
I'm really new to mixing and got a few flavors to play with. I was wondering if there was a usual range that is used for Bavarian cream? I got caramel candy, mandarin orange, orange cream, and the Bavarian this time. I do have a few others I've bought in the past also like ry4 double, blueberry, lemon, and a couple others.
I check this site if I have a flavor I'm not familiar with:Flavor Percentage Recommendations
Dave's suggestion is a good one for single flavor starting points. However, single flavorings are not going to work about 95% of the time for you. Try some of these mixes with your primary flavors of choice:
If you want to make great single flavorings with TFA, try adding them to different mixes. They all seemingly improve with supporting flavors. Here's a couple of examples:
Custards
Cotton Candy - 7%
Vanilla Custard - 6%
Bavarian Cream - 6%
Add any single flavoring to this mix for a great custard. You just have to work out the total single flavoring you need, and it's generally going to fall in the 7 - 13% range. I would start at 10% and adjust up or down as required to match taste. I make this with Mango....YUMMY!
Chocolates
Milk Chocolate - 5%
Double Chocolate - 5%
Bavarian Cream - 4%
Vanilla Swirl - 6%
Cotton Candy - 6%
Butter - 2%
Add fruits like cherries or strawberries. Mix in peanut butter, etc. Sky's the limit. But chocolates are tough and require a lot of supporting flavorings to pull off, imho. Also, by adjusting the double and milk, you can change the type of chocolate from milk chocolate to dark chocolate. I make this with Cherries.
Danish
Vanilla Custard - 4%
Brown Sugar - 2%
Butter - 2%
Sweetener - 2%
Waffle - 1%
Sweet Cream - 1-2%
Add almost any fruit to this one for a great Danish. I like it with Peach, but works with apple, lemon, cherry, etc.
Creams
Sweet Cream - 5%
Vanilla Swirl - 5%
Hazelnut - 2-3%
Honey - 3%
Sweetener - 2-3%
This cream recipe is great with fruits and just about anything else. Add single ingredients to this in the 10 - 15% range. I would start at 10% and increase until you find the sweet spot. I use this with strawberry and banana.
Pies
French Vanilla - 4%
Sweetener - 4%
Pie Crust - 4%
Graham Cracker - 3%
Brown Sugar - 2%
Butter - 1%
Cinnamon - .5% (OPTIONAL)
Add your fruit (10-15%) or nut (5-10%) to this recipe for a wonderful pie flavoring. I use this with peach, apple, pecan, etc.
Tarts
Sweet Cream - 4%
Vanilla Swirl - 4%
Cotton Candy - 2%
Sweet and Tart - 2%
Wonderful starburst flavoring and great with cherry, lemon, strawberry, grape (with raspberry or strawberry), orange, etc.
Complex Creams
Add strong flavorings of almost anything to Cream Fantastico to make a delicious Complex Cream. This works particularly good with strong cinnamon's, tarts, etc.
Cream Fantastico
Blueberry Extra - 8%
Strawberries and Cream - 7%
Vanilla Swirl - 5%
Bavarian Cream - 4%
Cotton Candy - 4%
Sweetener - 2%
This cream mixture mixes surprisingly well with everything I've tried so far. In this way, it can "rescue" a bad mix along the way. So, adding this to other mixes can produce some remarkable results. Try adding this to my Red Vines recipe for example. Had one vendor say that mix was the best juice they had ever tasted. I mixed those two specially for her as she wanted a creamy red licorice juice. She claimed she could taste about 8 different flavorings and was blown away. Glad you liked it miss!
Anyway, if you are just starting out, get the flavorings in the recipes above from TFA. Add your favorite fruits, tobaccos, etc. to them and you'll be making great juice in no time. Of course, all recipes must be flavored to individual taste, but these will get you close, and most folks will like them just as they are.
Also, combine fruits too. Add pear and peach, or any other pairings together in the strengths suggested and make up your own magical juice that no one else has. Put your name on your new creation!
Also, you need a good juice mixing calculator:

Good luck!
You can also review recipes on this thread. There are hundreds of them, and many are quite good (why else post them?). Surely you can find several that both look interesting to you and match some or all the flavors in your arsenal. Focusing on perhaps ten recipe or less, when you start, will allow you to build up your flavor stash and make great juice starting day one. Trying to create your own flavorings at first is a really difficult task, as we all found out, so we share what works for us here, and provide tips along the way for members and lurkers, who want to learn to DIY. Generally, this thread focuses on high flavor mixes, providing vapable juice at the time of mix (shake and vape), or shortly thereafter, without long steep times, though juices do benefit from some time in a cool dark spot. Anyway, feel free to ask questions, suggest ideas for flavors, ask for help with recipes with your flavorings, etc. Good luck!
