woot I made juice!

[jdub]

so I have a bottle of pg,grape loranns, and vg

most of my pg was used to chop up carts so I had about a little left so

30%pg
15%grape lorann flavoring
25% vg

its got 0 nic for now and has a very dark purple color but it tastes excelent

I used it on an offbrand atty so it wont damage it

I guess thats the percentages I didnt really measure cause it was my first time and now I have 30ml of grape juice

few questions tho

anything besides unflavored I am missing? is it bad for me compared to any other ejuice thats premade?

that was my first diy recipe too! I got some cherry and grape lorann's at the local Meijer(the only non-oil flavors they had). Your percentages only add up to 70% tho, but i'm sure that was just a typing error.

Try different amounts of pg and vg to get it to your liking. More VG means more vapor, but vg will thicken your juice and too much could gunk up your atty. I got a DIY kit from Dawn at diy-flavorshack and have been mixing like crazy! Currently finding the perfect mixtures for my own:

Raspberry-Lemonade
Raspberry-Mango
Cranberry-Peach
Dunhill with a little bit of mango

They're all tasting fabulous!

When you get the nic juice, use some of the online mixing calculators to find the right numbers. I got a big bottle of 60mg flavorless from Dawn, and I use Tod's Calculator to dillute it to 18mg.

So I've never mixed my own...what's the other 30%?

 

[jdub]

lol sorry I meant to say 45% vg thickens it up

I think thats a perfect ratio and I cant wait to order some flavors

all I need to do is buy juice with pg already in it and its unflavored

hopefully I can whip up about a liter of cotton candy soon

Congrats, jdub! Its very cool when you make your own and you actually really like it! I do not buy flavored juices, rather I make my own DIY VG juices exclusively, for now anyway. One thing about the grape, though, is it has coloring in it. The coloring can be a problem as it doesn't vape well, and can decompose on the coil. There is a Lorann's guide here somewhere that lists all the Lorann flavors in terms of how good they are for vaping.

thats why I use a knockoff ecig that uses 510 threads... works great for a passthrough and more vapor than most my dekang/strictlyejuice juices

hey! score...I've never goofed up a batch of homemade brew yet! i made a batch too strong on purpose once, but it was easy to bring it back to 24mg so I could use it,that strong juice made me dizzy! I make cherry juice only, I love it...actually it's fruit punch flavor amd I use gatoraid or koolaid as my base flavor......hey, thats a good tip, gatoraid or koolaid for flavoring and color...it's all water based!
