I went out and bought some Everclear and tried a few drops in a 3cc batch of juice and I got to admit that just does not do it either....at least I have some now ( everclear) to clean my atty with....LOL I agree that it makes the juice taste weird...plus I think I am half scared of vaping it . So I dug around in my DIY box and found some menthol flavoring which I tried when I first got it and did not care for it....but viola it works giving me a nice throat hit. That just proves to me that with vaping things change.....taste changes and what doesn't taste good at one point...may be fantastic later. Thanks everyone for your help.
