What eliquid mixing supplies to start with?

[nikomoul]

Hi all, i am a total newbie, but am intrigued with the idea of making my own eliquids. I wish to make 0 nic liquids.
SO my question is, what do i need to mix them, what do you use? What type of plastic bottles, syringes? Do you mix the flavorings and liquids in a small shot glass or what? I will probably buy some pg and some vg and some lorann's flavorings. JUst need to know what other supplies to get to actually MIX them up and store them. THanks!!
p.s. WIsh i could have posted this on the eliquid forum but i'm a newbie and i can't start a new thread there.

All I use is a syringe and a plastic dropper bottle. Didn't want to complicate the process.

Don't forget Bickfords flavors. I use both but I can't get by without Bickfords Coffee and Hazelnut. I consider these essentials.

I haven't tried them yet, but Capella flavor drops are getting good reviews and they have some awsome flavors.

flavored shake, water flavor drops, flavor water, fruit drops, Flavored water, coffee flavors, bottled drinking water - Testimonials

Yum they look awsome. Unfortunately I was unable to find any ingredients listings for the flavors. Maybe someone can tell us if they have food coloring or oils in them.

I think some folks in the DIY section have checked them out and found them to be good to use. There are also some discount codes posted, IIRC.

myfreedomsmokes.com has a starter kit for DIY liquid, and it has EVERYTHING you need to start including a nice tool box for 30 bucks. another 10 gets you ten sampler sized juices to get you started. you can even pick 0 nic. also inlcudes a how - to booklet. i just ordered the 40 dollar one and am expecting it soon.

as for the flavorings, if it says there are artificial colorings or if theyre oil based, i wouldnt touch em. baaaaad mojo for the attys.

From what I've read here and the videos I've watched alot of people use a syringe (dulled down) to extract their unflavored juice, flavoring, glycerin, etc. and squirt it from the syringe into the bottles. The bottles vary in size from 3ml to 30ml or more I'm sure. If you mix smaller amounts like the 3 or 5ml size measuring your amounts with the syringes is easy. Then when all is squirted into the little drip bottles you just shake it up to mix. Where to get the bottles... I do believe it has been posted on here before and american plastics sounds familiar but I am a noob also so if I'm wrong please dont yell at me It's an experimental learning experience for us all and I'm sure someone with more experience will give you better advice! Good luck

I have capella, and have now been using them more than loranns..they do taste more like baked goods if that makes sense? but seem more consistant if you like sweet flavors. Cost a little more too, so I'd try maybe three flavors to see what you think. I use the smallest size glass dropper bottles to both mix and carry, it's enuff for two or three days for me (by then I'm on to the next flavor to try!) but not so large if I don't like the taste after a while...

hi scaralouche,
i saw that tackle box kit, but it seemed to be a little too much equipment for me. Just want a few basics.

All noobs want to make their own juice. Learn how to vape first with some good pre-made stuff available everywhere. This will give you a taste base to judge your DIY endeavors on, and it will also show you that good juice is just as inexpensive. You will also have more knowledge of hardware issues before you realize problems you will experience with your mixing capabilities.
