Oh my God, I'm really kicking myself.
Turns out my perfect delicious recipe is using LorAnn Maple.. which contains MAPLE SYRUP!

Now I'm not sure what to do.. I want to vape it (I only have about 20-30mls at most) but don't know how good it is to vape.. is the main issue here that it will gunk up coils faster? I can live with that until I get the Maple Natural flavor at least.

I'm almost out of my other everyday vape, so I planned on moving to my tobacco maple recipe.. but am now having second thoughts..

Any suggestions guys?

just an update.. finally filled a tank with my original flavor that I worked on (first time vaping a DIY juice rather than just tasting it).. feels good.. really liking it.. I did accidentally make it about 12mg, though, and I vape 18mg.. so hopefully it gets me by until I make and steep some 18mg.. I think I still have a few tweaks to do but it's great. The second batch I made is still slightly different, so I'll have to work out the kinks still so I am consistent!

So my second batch is definitely different than the first.. and now my first batch is all vaped up.
The second batch is still very tasty but it's definitely different! Looks like I'll have more experimenting! I do have a 60ml bottle of a third batch, so we'll see what that one tastes like after it steeps..

I still have one more batch I want to make, using converted ml's - so I will wait for that batch to see how it tastes and adjust accordingly.. then when that's down it should be easier to reproduce (instead of using drops.. ugh).

I am going to start making a new juice, though.. I have some new flavors coming.. Malt, a few different Maples and a Bread Crust flavor to name a few.
My next one I will try to keep simple (well.. a little simpler haha)

I'm thinking RY1, maybe Real Cig, Maple, Graham Cracker, Malt, Vanilla Custard (maybe?).. then probably AP, VW, Vinegar... we'll see.. I've got a bunch of ideas!

My ADV for the last week is something similar to yours
VZ VFC, VZ Real Cig, TFA Graham Cracker, TFA English Toffee, EM and a bit of ACV

That sounds great, I will have to try it! I've got no Toffee flavors, though.. I'll have to get some!

just be really careful with it it is quite strong and once you pass the good level everything tastes weird (I don't really get a toffee flavor but a nice toasted caramel something

Working on a few new recipes now that I got another dozen 1/2 oz cobalt glass dropper bottles in the vape mail yesterday. Been having a real problem not being able to steep long enough without enough bottles. :( Got a basic RY4 with a few drops of TA whipped up and gonna let it steep for a month. I'm excited about my Hibiscus Raspberry tea. I drink it every day at work since we have free coffee and tea to keep a properly caffeinated work force.

Hibiscus Raspberry tea: (all TFA, haven't tried it yet, waiting for 2 week steep)
15 ml 12mg/ml NIC

3.75 NIC (48mg/ml)
3.75 VG
5.7 PG
.9 Raspberry
.75 Honeysuckle
.075 Hibiscus

I'm on my 3rd batch of my original recipe I talked about in the first post... it's still very different.. I'm scared I won't be able to replicate it!
I'm gonna try something else, though.. in the meantime.
For starters, the maple I was using (from LorAnn) was the kind with actual maple syrup in it.. so I think it's gunking my coils a little faster.. I just got a bunch of maple flavors from Capella, Nature's Flavors, FlavourArt and the LorAnn maple (natural) that I will try...

I'm still sticking with my first idea, so:

-tobacco(s) - at least Hangsen RY1, maybe Real Cig as well.. might even do the Black Cigar triple combo like my first recipe.
-a good maple, this time more maple!
-might try Natures Flavor Brown Sugar
-Graham Cracker again
-bread crust from FlavourArt (if it tastes good.. I haven't tried it yet)
-and maybe Malt
then AP, and maybe VW, EM and Vinegar

I might not do the brown sugar, I'm not sure yet.. I want a simpler juice to make but I love the idea of combining maple & brown sugar, graham cracker and tobacco.. plus I feel the bread crust will go good with the AP... I'll probably start without the brown sugar, maybe less EM too

I'll let you guys know how it goes.

My third batch of my other juice is still tasty, it's just completely different... not sure how that happened! I'm sure I could make it again if I do what I did before, making 3-5ml flavor samples and using THOSE to drop into one big batch.. at least if I really want it back I will do that and measure it all properly.

I'm currently working on a full flavor all day vape. I just finished a light, sweet all day vape but I'm looking for something with a bit more kick and less sweetness.

I'm working with Virginia tobacco extract currently at 10% and trying different undernotes. Maple at 3 percent is making it decent but I'm struggling with the percentage of the 'nutty' flavor. Hazelnut doesn't seem to work at any percentage. I'm going to try almond at 1-6 percent this week and see how that works out.

I got about half of all the Hangsen tobacco flavors in last week so I mixed them all up and have been running them in the ultra sonic pretty much nonstop. I am really impressed with them, however the whole 1 drop per ml thing did not work for me. I don't know if my taste/smell is still recovering or what, but I had to kick it up to about 7.5% to get any satisfaction from them.
So far the stand outs for me are the Ry1, Arabic, desert ship, tab blended, highway and the deluxe.

currently working on a flavorless - nicotine less - juice with tons of TH.

currently at 15ml of VG and about 2ml of gin and a few drops of distilled white vinigar(shoulda had apple cider but i guess ohwell).
working wonders as an allday vape for me - but slightly less TH then prefilled carts at 2.4% nic.

does it really give a TH like nicotine or just a big irritation??

id say a miniscual TH and slight irritation yes. im still working on getting the real TH up. im trying for tons of TH without the nicotine. but not quite there yet.

still on a 0$ budget and using houshold items i can find that are safe for vaping

editt: and to be fair with what i said, i havent vaped this since i added the vinegar because my cart is still full. waiting for it to empty before i refill with the vinegar added

and to be even more honest, these prefilled cart are just as irritating to my throat, i personaly beleive the TH i feel from this Prefilled logic cart is the menthol more then the nic. cause its not that it HITS my throat, it just makes it cold. i can feel the cold. lol.

So I ran out of my original maple flavor from LorAnn which contained real maple (I've been wanting to swap it out for a different one)

Anyway I just made a juice with Capella Pancake Syrup, Capella Graham Cracker, Hangsen RY1 and Real Cig and AP, VW and Vinegar.

I really hope it turns out good.. I used both Capella flavors at 10%. I just tried the Pancake Syrup at 15% and it was VERY strong and pretty nasty actually.. so I really really hope it's good at 10%! I should've used my other LorAnn maple.. the one that doesn't have real maple in it. It tastes pretty good at like 2-3%, but I will probably use more next time.

I think when I get home today I will make the same liquid with the LorAnn maple just in case!

I'm also in the market for a good oatmeal raisin flavor - so if anyone has suggestions that'd be great. I'm thinking Oatmeal Raisin, Maple, Graham Cracker and tobacco base would be delicious!

I also still need to try the Malt flavor I have! I might add that to the graham cracker maple I'm making.. not sure yet.

I am making a coffe flavored vape based off a local companies "carmel cielo". I am mixing cappuccino (fw), carmel candy (fw), and dulce de leche (fw).
Cappuccino seems to be strong but I did mix 11ml cap, 2ml carml, and 2ml dulce in a 50:50 with 12mg. Probably will add more carmel next try.
Fun stuff

Wow! You guys (and gals) make me feel like such a newbie. Which I am. Right now I'm working with LorAnn flavorings. Mainly because they are cheap and so easy to get.

I use 0 nic. all VG base and make 10ml batches.

I've got a good spearmint going.

75% VG
2% LorAnn's Spearmint Flavoring (I'm thinking of bumping that up by 1%)
15% Distilled Water
3% Liquid Sucralose (I'm thinking of reduceing that by 1% or more)

I am, as I am writing this, vaping a Root Beer mix. It seems a bit week so I'm going to boost the flavoring (I have it at 3%) up to about 5% and see what that does.

I'm also working on a Cherry, Apple, Caramel, and one that is VG/water/sweetner/and Real Lemon juice. I'm intrested to see how that last one turns out. Hope it doesn't kill me. :laugh:

So right now I'm just trying to get the basic single flavories down. Then I'll try for more complex mixes like Carmel Apple.
