    Just got 100% VG Hangsen menthol, stuck a bit into the subbox and WOW!

    So smooth :)

    Where did you buy it from?

    Probably here:

    http://www.vapefreaks.com/Menthol_VG/p2486621_13586554.aspx

    Less than 15 euro for 100ml. I used to exclusively vape this before I got in to DIY. If you find a flavour you like you're laughing. Just note the instructions on that page because they come in a bottle with no tip for filling.

    BargainVapour sir, great bunch of folks!

    http://www.bargainvapour.com/HS_Menthol_VG_100ml/p1274299_13175338.aspx

    To be honest I thought it would rip the throat out of me (Mouth to lung) but it is so smooth. Will definitely be stocking up on it before these laws come into effect :mad:

    Space jam - galactica

    Supposed to be strawberry and champaign. Its a strange one this one. I thought it was rotten last night, tried it on a dripper with a .31 duel kanthal build, fresh battery in the mech. The flavour was strong but not that pleasent. Bit perfumy and got a weird nutty taste off it. Its slowly growing on me today though. Filled up an i sub last night and just let it soak and its s bit smoother out of the tank. Vapeing it at 25 watts off an innoken disrupter. Its 6m nic and i dont know the vg pg ratio but im guessing its a bit higher in pg than i would like it to be. All in all its growing on me , not a bad flavour but its definitly a very artificial strawberry, not fresh at all. I dont get what champaign "should" vape like? Its a weird one for me. Theres something else in there too though like a pastry or nuts. Might let the second half of the bottle steep after today

    DIY Strawberry Milkshape from Vampirevape,lovely creamy flavour after steeping for about a week.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 635 ✭✭✭Dr Bill


    This could be old news as I haven't bought a bottle of juice in ages but I saw on the Kix website a juice called Teleos The Milk 2,has anyone tried it and is it as good as the original?

    Its meant to be v good, havent tried it yet but its getting rave reviews. Im not the biggest fan of cinnamon though as it tends to overpower everything else.

    Good stuff.

    Im still convinced theres a tiny bit of cinnamon in the original milk. Im due another attempt at the clone. Think I'll reduce the brown sugar and or replace it completely with marshmallow.

    Well I had a bit of time off over christmas and vaped a load of free vapefest liquids, and a couple of other purchased ones.
    The highlights for me:
    Craft Vapery - It's Toast.
    I bought this lush liquid at fest and saved it for the hols.
    Its amazing IMO, frighteningly accurate granary toast and strawberry/rasberry jam.
    You can even taste the little burnt bits. I'd be happy to try their other two flavours, which I didn't bother doing at Fest, so taken was I by 'It's Toast'.

    NKTR - Mango
    Holy God Ted! Its mouthwatering Mango, pure and clean tasting.
    Given to me by a big friendly American dude at Fest, John I think was his name.
    They say its an artifical nic in it, so where does that leave the TPD?
    If its not derived from tobacco, or contains tobacco or anything tobacco-ey, how can this liquid be covered by their money grabbing regs?
    I digress though, this liquid is just gorgeous. I'd try their other flavours.

    There were loads of other 'nice' juices too, Republic of Vape's new dripping range (the one I've tried so far anyway) is a real step forward for the company, lovely stuff. A few American and UK juices too, the take home is I didn't have any horrible juices, nothing you'd gag on and say never again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone


    Madame Vapes [a line from Grand Vapes] - Geisha - Loving this stuff! I love any of the yogurt based juices I've tried to date in fact. And this is no exception, in fact, it's possibly the nicest. Lychee and mango cream yoghurt! Mmmmm. It really is good. Anyone who may have tried Versus Vape's Annex will find this one tasting familiar. They are very alike, but Annex is more on the peachy side. I actually prefer this Geisha, and it's cheaper! Nice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,401 ✭✭✭jonski


    I don't really do liquid reviews, I don't really buy liquids ................. DIY ftw .

    But....... I will say that if you like the taste of blackjack sweets then the BlackJack concentrate from flavourart is really nice . I'm mixing it at 10% and it's just enough of the taste without being too strong or too sweet . The smell of blackjack is fairly strong though so if you live in a house where the others don't like it then you will find yourself vaping outside .

    I stopped into Republic of Vape over the weekend and was looking to try something new. I didn't catch the guys name but he was really sound and let me try a few different juices before I bought one. He even gave me a replacement glass for my subtank mini for a few quid cheaper.
    In the end I opted for DRPN Donuts Bear Claw.
    http://republicofvape.ie/shop/bear-claw/

    It's absolutely delicious. I'm not a fan of cinnamon at all but this is very subtle and not overpowering in the slightest. I'd highly recommend it and I'll definitely be buying it again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,906 ✭✭✭EGriff


    They have some great juice, they're becoming my go to site these days. I like the way the flavours are listed under each juice without you having to click into its individual page, a simple thing but it makes browsing the site much handier.

    Way too many juices out there right now at €20+ per 30ml. I feel like we're paying as much for the arty-farty labels as we are for the juice itself. How can some companies do 120ml for not much more? I see the €20+ per 30 juices as a special treat now. Especially when I go through that much in about 2-3 days. I had to start looking for cheaper alternative. SO will be trying some DIY soon. But, I have found a decent juice, €23 for 120ml.

    White lightening juices, http://vapeisland.town.ie/products/361341

    it's €5 postage for one bottle, but even for €28, you're getting 4x 30ml, and it's pretty good. The Unicorn Cake is as good a any of the usual strawberry milk/cake ones out there, their 'S.K.Y' is also good [strawberry, kiwi, yogurt] and atm I have 'Berry Blast' - which is a fruit smoothie, and pretty good too. The only one I actually didn't like was Super Cereal, the one I thought I'd like most. I still buy some old fav's in 30ml, but I like to have a bottle of this stuff on side, so I don't run dry.

    And scary to think what the TPD will do to pricing and the taxes that our beloved govt will slap on liquid tobacco products. It's an uncertain future for sure.

    They've really nailed the tax on in Italy on any juice containing nicotine, look at the prices inc vat on the Flavourart site.

    Scary stuff

    Or stick some nic in the freezer, I'm down to 2 - 3mg now so what I have should last me a few years, surely they will have seen sense by then.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 588 ✭✭✭jno547


    surely they will have seen sense by then.

    Do you really believe they will ?????
    Is there a time limit on storing nic frozen do you know?

    No,just fooling myself.
    Once they tax it,it's here to stay I'd say.

    From what I've read nic in a pg base (apparently stores better than vg base) can last over 10 years, even then it doesn't go off just loses some strength.

    Jaysus - knew this was coming but did not expect to see outrageous taxes for a few years yet. Poor Italians with a 134.5% sin tax for improving their health. This feels so wrong and even evil.

    Back to the Black Market again :D:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 588 ✭✭✭jno547


    Got myself a bottle of Teleos Remixed The Milk 2, loved the original, the clone was good but I went through so much of it that it lost it's kudos.
    The Milk 2 is every bit as good as the original, creamy, cereal, lemon, vanilla, it's all there.
    Trond, if you see this try it, you won't be disappointed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,555 ✭✭✭youdipstick




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone


    Never tried the Gypsy juices, but have tried white lightening. They're alright, I found them a bit weak on the flavour side. Unicorn cake is about the best one, the donuts one wasn't out at the time. Some of them look interesting, and the price is as good as you'll get.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 472 ✭✭nuttyboy79



    I've tried 3 of the White Lightening ones Super Cereal, Unicorn Cake and S.K.Y.

    Super Cereal is really nice reminds me of Teleos The Milk, Unicorn Cake is subtle but nice definite strawberry light cream, S.K.Y. is really nice too really refreshing kiwi, strawberry flavour. But overall good juices and at 23 quid for 120ml you really can't go wrong.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone


    Super cereal is the one I couldn't get on with, tasted like wash up liquid mixed with a little strawberry, wasn't getting cereal from it at all. It's not jut that one though, it tastes identical to Cerealized, by Grand vapors, terrible stuff [IMO] Whatever lemon they use isn't good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,555 ✭✭✭youdipstick


    Thanks for the reviews...
    There is alot Ml in the bottle if one didn't like it,I might try a bottle of the Donuts when I order my FP from him...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26,567 ✭✭✭✭Fratton Fred


    I'm just finishing off a bottle of unicorn milk and I will be buying another shortly. I might try one of the others as well.

    I have really enjoyed it and for the price it's excellent.

    Juice has to get cheaper, because this sub ohming lark gets through a tonne of it. I'm vaping more a week than I was a month two years ago and it is getting almost as expensive as smoking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,555 ✭✭✭youdipstick


    That's for sure Fred,10ml would last me a week back then & some over,today,some sub ohm tank coils will last a bit longer than others,but €4 a pop,that is expensive as well.
    So DIY & cheap liquid is a must & also RBA's.

    You mean the Unicorn cake? Because Unicorn milk is another over priced juice

    Why do you think I started DIY mixing? I haven't paid for juice in 2 months now, and though I spent as much on getting started out and buying tonnes of flavourings and bits and bobs for mixing, I'll save a tonne in the long run. I have juice for months steeping away, and the goods to make a whole heap more. I keep buying extras because it's a bit addictive :D I don't need to.

    I think everyone who uses a lot of juice should look into doing it.

    got some lovely "Dragons blood" clone concentrate from picknmixdiy today

    have to give the guy a bit of plug, as he runs a great business


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26,567 ✭✭✭✭Fratton Fred


    With those pre mixed concentrates, what % di you mix them at? I might knock up some of the milkman.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,455 ✭✭✭lee_baby_simms


    With those pre mixed concentrates, what % di you mix them at? I might knock up some of the milkman.

    Depends, they differ. The mothers milk clone is mixed at 23%.

  • Users Awaiting Email Confirmation Posts: 489 ✭✭AngryDiMaria


    So I'd use 23ml in a 100 ml mix?

    Yes. The bottle will be labelled with "mix at 23%" or whatever percentage applies to that particular mix.

    The "Blueberry Cheesecake" tastes of socks....

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 746 ✭✭✭Mightydrumming


    I found with pickamixdiy's mother's milk (recommends 23%) that it was a little bit to strong for my liking, have it at just under 21% and it's gorgeous :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,762 ✭✭✭✭Inquitus


    Element: Pink Lemonade and Freshly Squeezed. Both really nice flavours, really enjoyed them, only thing is I found they destroyed my coil way faster than usual, anyone else noticed the same with these, it's a real shame as I don't think I could use them on a regular basis due to this. TFV4 with the Quad Coils was what I was using on my RX200.

    I've never tried the Element range, but they advertise them of being made especially for use in Drippers.

    Those coils should wick it fine though, although might struggle if you are doing some huge chain vapes.

    It wicked fine and vaped fine, just seemed to speed up the coil degradation substantially, maybe just gunked it quicker. Will use on a dripper in future, thanks,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,756 ✭✭✭Thecageyone


    Some juices do that because they are over loaded with sweeteners. certain flavourings are known coild gunkers, not a lot you can do really. On a dripper you could re-wick when they get loaded up, and clean your coils. That's why they recommend for that I guess.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,687 ✭✭✭✭Penny Tration


    Most element stuff wicks absolutely fine but they're jam packed with sweetener so gunk up coils incredibly quickly. Nice flavours, though!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,006 ✭✭✭Daithi 1


    Im pretty new to vaping. I bought a vape in Blanch for 60 euro and have since realised I was ripped off. So far i have used liquids from vapingdog - virgina and strong tobacco and rusty and one or two from spar shop when I was stuck.
    All the above liquids are 5 euro each and I always feel like I need something more, not getting that throat hit I guess.

    I came across this today and thought it's exactly what I need and it's less than what I paid for an Evod twist vape.

    Any thoughts on this product? See the video.

    Also any thought on the type of coil required, can I buy it anywhere?

    I do use eleaf istick 20w,30w,40w & a 50w but I don't own a 100w istick,they were all great isticks.
    Someone who has one will chime in here later to give their opinions.

    You mention a coil,but not the type of tank you need for the coil.
    PG & Nicotine will give you the throat hit & depends what tank you have,come back here & tell us what tank you have....
