DIY juice mixes...

MonstaMash · 08-02-2014 12:18pm #1

I've started mixing my own juices lately just for the sake of experimentation.

I'm using VG/PG base mix 50/50 & flavours sourced at http://www.inaweraflavours.com/en/7-e-flavours

For those of you vapers out there that DIY mix, what is your preferred VG/PG ratio & why?

Fairly new to it myself, 4 month convertee, but anyone that knows me knows I go a little OTT OCD on a subject when I get into it.

Another newbie here.
Something I'd like to try myself in the near future.
I'd be very interested in knowing what your concoctions turn out like.

MonsterMash, have you come across any decent weed flavours for e cigs?

MonstaMash · 08-02-2014 2:10pm

It's like cooking basically, if you have the right ingredients & put them together to taste, eventually you will come up with a flavour that entices the taste buds & just hits the spot.

It's all about personal preference, it can be a little hit & miss at first, but it's not alchemy.

Start of with small amounts & add to taste I find.

You can always add to the flavour, but you can tone it down with a good neutral base or distilled water if you over do it.

On second thoughts...it is alchemy, vaping alchemy

68% VG
30% PG
1% Sucralose (in PG)
1% Ethyl Maltol (in PG)

Leave juices steep for at least 2 weeks.

Been at it for about a year now and thats the recipe that seems to work the best for drippers, clearo's however need a 55:50 mix or start to choke fast so I ask people what they are using first - the 70:30 is much more "luxurious" vape though.

I've taken to adding a few drops of Whiskey to my tobacco mixes lately...makes all the difference, adds a hint of flavour & thins out the mix

Anyone who likes the Mom and Pops range can get the flavour concentrates online, I've used the Five Layer and Pchelas Poison and they come out lovely at about 20-25% with an overall 70/30 mix @18mg.

The flavours from the alchemists cupboard are very sweet from my experience.

Would love a concentrate for Highbrows Cappuccino Diablo. That stuff is expensive!

I've mixed a bottle of five layer cake this morning, how long does it need to be left before it can be used?

I left it for a week the first time, giving it a bit of a shake daily.

The last time I used it after a couple of days and the flavour was very muted.

Leave it for as long as you can, really.

That's good. I was hoping it didn't need two or three weeks.

Thx

If you bought it premixed before, then don't be shy with the flavour concentrate. 20% min.

I put 7ml in a 30mix, just to be safe.

Little tip to prolong the life of your syringes , cut strips of celotape and do rings of celotape around the lenght of syringe, stops the numbers wearing off

Or go to the chemist and ask for a couple for giving your baby Calpol

IF you have a 10ml one, just keep that for multiples of 10ml and the chemist will hand out 5ml ones no prob.
