I cut the big head off my frother so now it fits in even 30ml bottles. I also just ordered 7 more flavors (from ecigexpress using the 10% coupon again) 5 of which are various creams. I plan on combining with some of my fruit flavors I currently have. I am stuck in this hole and If I don't produce a usable loved flavor from this I will not like this hole at all. lol We shall see if I can make my own Tasty&Vapey I claim this name this will be my own brand.

There is a recipes sub-forum here and other recipe web sites where you should be able to find some well reviewed recipes using your flavors, and flavoring information about what percentages to start with, to get you started on the right foot. I do not miss buying/vaping premium juice at all. In fact I have 1.5 bottles of premium juice from last spring/summer that I had been ignoring in favor of my DIY recipes that I recently started vaping again so it doesn't go to waste and I am not impressed at all.

Also what is being made unavailable in our furture laws hardware wise like my occ premade coils by kangertek I buy them from china cheap is hardware going to be outlawed mods and such ect.ect.. I tried to find a simple answer to this was unable to, and if our supplies for diy will be affected as well? I know this is diy, but if I just started to only not be able to buy what I need to vape my juice or cannot get what I need to make ejiuce. Not going to be happy

There is no simple answer to this question at this point. I suggest buying lots of spare coils and plenty of tanks/mods just in case. I have more RDA/RTA than I can count at this point that I have never even opened up and tested. I have a dozen or so spare mods in addition to the 10+ mods in rotation and plan to order at least as many more spare mods this year.

That's what I was thinking as well I'm not really worried about coils as I make my own as well. I'm more worried about be devices batteries n such. Thanks for the info. I thought it was only against ejuice. I mean pot has been illegal for how long but I can go online and by bongs n pipes right now. I know pot is becoming legal in many places I'm just referencing. I wish usa would stop buying cigarettes 4 1 week n tell them to unring this bell I bet it be undone. I know a sales rep. For rj Reynolds and he is upset I no long smoke analogs. He was excited to tell me a few mo ths ago that they're making their own sealed refills for a device like my Joyetech eVic VTC Mini 75W TC VW APV Box Mod with my kangertech top fill mini. He said their will be adjustable and be better in every way plus no mess or leaks. We buy refills that are the tank he explained. Can you imagine that if it was decent price and tasted great I guess ok. I doubt it will function well or taste great either.

@akuser47 - Batteries used in mods are also used in other things like some flashlights, etc.. So the prevailing thinking is that they'll always be available. Same thing with most ingredients for making eliquids (PG, VG, flavorings) which are used in making other products, too. There is some uncertainty though, as to whether or not flavorings that are tobacco ones (RY4 and similar) will be available longterm. The real concern with DIY, is the questionable longterm availability of nic base needed for it. That's why so many of us have stashed enough in our freezers to last us for as long as we want to vape in the future.

Most people are also stocking up on hardware, since if the FDA gets its way in the end...even importing them will most likely be difficult, if at all possible. Best to get what you think you may need longterm, while you can still readily get it.

Sorry, I didn't know that. I just saw that it was just ......and thought I'd fix it. Nothing sneaky intended[emoji15]
yeah, I figured you didn't know. They are quite strict about it. Most people can find the site you are referring to with a simple google search but I wouldn't even suggest search terms as that too could be considered evading the forum filters. The other popular vape/recipe forums are not as strict about linking back to other forums.

Thanks, Fozzy. Yes I'm new here and still learning the rules.

Sorry about that I wasn't aware of that either. I am part of a few other forums and they all have their own set of rules. Thanks!

That's one of the best DIY sites out there and it's where I get all my recipes. I'm sure there's some history and reason for banning it, but on the surface it just seems stupid. For those who don't know, if you click on the ratings column it will sort by rating and put the most popular recipes at the top.

First off can someone pm this secret site. Also I made my first 10ml test batch with tropical fruit only waiting on my creams to show up yet. I am getting ready to test it out. My frother worked great and is gtg. I used my syringes this go around and I'll do my next by weight n see what I may prefer. I like the syringes as I can use exact amounts precisely.

Ok I just started vaping my new tropical punch and its awesome. I did a 50/50 pg vg. only 3mg nic. For first 10ml batch my next will be 70vg/30pg I like higher vg. I am still blown away at the flavor of this for my first I expected to botch it n toss it. Now I'll let it steep a few days to a week. I know fruit steep isn't always needed right away I'm just hoping it will develop even more flavor. It's already tasty n smells wonderful with no after taste. My first Tasty&Vapey mix lol.

It's not really secret just google eliquid recipes and it'll come up at the top.
