Yay! My first wizard order came

[dwarfcat]

500ml vg
500ml pg
250ml 36mg nic
5 1ml syringes
5 5ml syringes
1 3ml syringes
5 each of all their needle tips
5 cobalt 30ml bottle
5 10ml bottles
TFA strawberry, marshmellow, brown sugar, watermellon, kiwi, sour, sweetener, pomagranite, watermellon, bubblegum, peanut butter, cinnamon danish, bacon

so excited that my order came today. I was afraid I had a mess on my hands because it looked like they played soccer with my box but everything was safe and sound. Sitting down sat to whip up a couple juices.

juice 1 ( the wow factor) peanut butter, bacon, cinnamon danish
juice 2 (hillbilly heaven) watermellon, bubblegum, sour
not sure what percentages im going to use yet.

how do you guys go about cleaning your syringes? Do you use 1 exclusively for your vg, pg and nic? I want to make sure I keep things as sanitary as possible.

Hi Dwarfcat,

I use seperate syringes for my Nic, PG, & VG. I clean them with hot soapy water and rinse. Then let them air dry. If you need extra syringes Tractor Supply carries them at a reasonable price. Good luck on your DIY Adventure. Always good to see a fellow Michigander here.

Cheers,

Yes I am and it's about time, I thought winter was never going to end (cautiously puts away snow shovel ). Looks like we might actually get a few weeks of nice weather before it's 90 with 90% humidity

Hmm can someone check my math here. I thought it seemed pretty simple and I wrote up these amounts for a 10ml bottle of 6mg 60/40 juice at 15% flavor but i keep reading confusing things
Flavor 1.5ml
Vg 4ml
36mg nic 1.6ml
Pg 2.9ml

Try using the eJuice Me Up - Best eJuice Calculator to do your sums, i made your figures:

Nic - 1.67ml
PG - 2.83ml
VG - 4ml
Flavour - 1.5ml

Have you seen this calculator? Looks pretty easy to use.

It's a bit too simple and has no way of recording your recipes, so i'd avoid it. The one I linked above is good for beginners, or try this one http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/480587-new-calculator-try.html it has lots of options and is fairly easy to use.

Thanks for the tips. Ill def check out that calculator. I wish they had an Iphone app because im never on a real computer. Waiting to make some is killing me but my fiancee wants to help "cook batches" with me tomorrow. She doesnt even smoke or vape (aside from a few puffs of mine) and she is excited to play.

 

[dwarfcat]

Do you guys stick your pg,vg and nic base in the fridge or just somewhere out of the sun and room temp?

 

[Huckleberried]

I keep my pg, vg and the nic I'm using in a dark cabinet that's pretty cool. The rest of my nic is in the freezer in glass bottles.

We made our first juice tonight!
8% bubble gum
1% sour
1% sweet
5% watermellon
Smells delicious. Shaking and letting mix till tomorrow night for the pacers big win over miami.

 

[dwarfcat]

Hmmm, filled up my taifun with it. I must say, im not upset with my first try. Its very bubble gum on the inhale but leaves a watermellon taste in the mouth like a pc of bubblelicous thats been chewed for 10min. Not getting any sour but there is a subtle sweetness. Next batch im backing off the bubblegum a few percent, uppin the sour by 1 and putting more mellon.
