Ok ordered from Nic River and Bull City
500mls of PG, VG, 100mg/ml nic in PG
Hangsen - RY1, Tab Blended
Purilum - Sweet tobacco, Super Sweet
WF - Cashew, Macadmian Nut
FA - Acetyl Pyrazine, DX Hazelnut, MTS vape Wizard
INW - 555 Gold, Gold Ducati
TFA - Popcorn, Toasted Almond, EM in PG
Going to mix up the tobaccos first, then the nuts. Try to find the right tobacco and nut combo then will work on rounding it out.
I am sure to have a million more questions.
Thanks All for the input

Been looking at nic.... I used 100mg in PG before. I think that my vape will end up between 70Vg/30Pg & a 50/50 mix. If I get 36mg nic @ a 50/50 mix then add the flavorings or more vg should be somewhere between 36mg and 24mg. Which is ok. I am not stuck on a #. Or get the 100mg in vg just for the ability to adjust it easier?

I second the suggestions to buy Nicotine in a high PG base or at least no more VG than 50/50, at least for mixes with VG at 50%. Drawing up VG in a dropper or a syringe for DIY mixing can be a pain. I use dropper bottles for my 70PG nic base. I'd hate to think about drawing up an all VG Nic base. My Nic base is 70pg/30vg and was purchased when I mixed that range for DIY.

I think the nic I had before was already oxidized when I got it. I got the cheapest I could find. I think that nic is a important part of the formula for these juices. Nic salts maybe down the line. Any suggestions on the cleanest tasting nic?
Thanks for the suggestion Anna

I’ve been using Nicotine River 48/100 mg and haven’t tasted anything peppery that some people find.

I will admit I haven’t used any other nicotine but since it tastes good why mess with it.

When I started mixing I actually googled the name of the juice and added “clone” ex Boomslang Clone

I actually got a hit that ive used and love. It’s not a perfect match but I can tinker with it I suppose but it’s good as is.

Good luck with your DIY!

Wow, Fidelia, I think you beat me, even. I was under $150 on both my flavor purchases. The nicotine river discount WAS great though. I feel like I will be nice and stocked up for a while, given what I already have.... But go, Fidelia, go! :)

Anna i don’t know how so many things ended up in my shopping cart! And then I figured if 10mls was good why not 4 or 8 ozs!!!!!! Actually every time I have some “extra” money I buy more nicotine just in case! So it’s not all on flavors lol!
