Paddy, if that's the site I'm thinking of, and looked at, the recipes are kind of vague. Most of them are by drops, at best, which makes them hard to duplicate. Incidentally, that link doesn't seem to work for me.
awsum,

The links worked for me, but, you're right. Mostly "drops", never mind. I'll be posting a new report in a minute after I load the two new recipes shown above.

Sounded good so I'm giving it a try:



Note I'm using saline( from a post here on ECF) : "The saline is an amazing goodness! Our "base" for almost everything we mix is now 80% VG with a 20% dilution (the 20% dilution is made up of 45% distilled water; 45% .9% saline; and 10% PGA). The flavors are much more *alive*, the dry mouth is lessened, and the final juice is MUCH easier on coils/wicks! The 'salt' (agree - we can't taste) is essential imo for certain flavors....particularly chocolate & bakery flavors"

And I'm using EM because Original called for Sweetener but I don't like "water soluble(Ingredients:propylene Glycol, Water, Sucralose)" and I don't like Sucralose. I'll let you know how I like it.

Where are you getting saline solution from or are you making it? If you're making it, how are you making it?
I got it at CVS. Arm & Hammer Simply Saline...Nasal Relief. Its in a metal can (aerosol, don't know the propellent) with a red stripe on the top. I think it was $7 for 126ml. Ingredients Purified Water & 0.9% sodium chloride. All the others I could find had additional additives. Not sure if it will really produce 126ml though. I had to keep the can somewhat vertical as I sprayed the liquid into a 30ml glass bottle. When I shake the can now I don't hear any liquid splashing around. Considering how little I will be using it might take a while until I really find out how much liquid I get. If anyone knows of a source of a non-aerosol with NO additional additives, I would sure like to know! I'm mixing this at 2%(liquid, no PG/VG ) as shown in my posted mix. Can't taste the salt but its supposed to enhance the overall flavor.

EDIT: When I asked the pharmacist, you need a perscription to get pure liquid!!!!

Oops, I transposed the cheesecake and the Black Cherry while mixing this. Like you've never done that! Anyway, I guess I really do have a Black Cherry Cheesecake now! I'll report back.

Trying my mistake now. Even with 15% Black Cherry, very faint. Must prove that to much flavor actually lessens the flavor.Has a hint of Cheesecake(Graham Crust) but will need to let it sit for a couple of days to see what happens.
