Some DIY tips.

I have helped a few people with combining flavors for a great juice. This is just something I have learned and it seems to help others.

I use usually three flavors in each juice. Sometimes I will go for four.

But there is a pattern I follow every time and it has always worked to well for me.

I break down the flavors into categories. This allows me to pick from each.

I know that my juices need a cream flavor to give the depth of flavor I want. I know most fruits need something to sweeten.

Tobacco flavors and sweet flavors I use at half what I use of other flavors.

Here are my categories and a few examples:

Creams: Bavarian cream, sweet cream, dulche de leche, eggnog, horchata

Fruit & candy: Strawberry, grape, pear, caramel, butter rum, butterscotch, maple, caramel

Liquor: Jamaican Rum, Brandy, Pina Colada

Nuts & more: Coconut, Praline, hazelnut, graham cracker, waffle, butter

Sweet: Cotton candy, marshmellow, honey

I will combine at least one cream, one fruit or candy, one nut or other in that group, or liquor group.

So two samples of my mixes might be:

Cherry, coconut, brandy

Caramel, bavarian cream, Jamaican Rum.

I have done four by adding some tobacco or one from the nut group.

I always use more of the total flavor percentage for cream and fruit or candy flavors.

Where does Butter fit in your catagory? I have some and don't know what to do with it.

Thanks for this post. It should help a lot.

I got that with some other flavors. Have not found a use for it yet. But I was thinking maybe with the waffle and maple. Sounds like breakfast! Might throw in some coconut too. I would only use a little of the butter.

Well I am going to be trying a few of these, thanks everyone for contributing.

I had my favorite juice vendor piss me off this week by not replacing a stinking 15 dollar bottle of juice after I've spent over 700 dollars with them. Really, WTF .......
(I really mean stinking, it was not the right flavor)

So before my all day vape is down to zero i'm gonna have to brew my own ..... I'm done with juice vendors.

Went through same thing with my favorite vendor and started DIY-ing. The savings are unbelieveable and I know what is in my juice because I put it there. The possibilities are endless. I read everything I could on the forums ordered stuff and away I went. Been mixing for 3 months and nothing but good. Get notebook and write EVERYTHING DOWN and PATIENCE is a must, still working on that especially when it comes to steeping. Good Luck.

Also the "E juice me up" application is nice for working out recipes and ratios.

I use butter in my cinn danish, waffle, fr toast, apple pie.....

I just got the new concentrated flavors in...and what a difference...I made a 5ml tester and only used 3 drops of flavor! and they taste awesome....well...the peach does...haven't tried the rest yet...lol

 

[kabonk]

I like the calculators on this site E-Liquid Recipe Mixing Calculator With PG/VG Percent Adjusting because I break down the cost and I can see that I'm it's only costing me $2.60 for a 60ml bottle of juice it really appeals to my cheapness and you can bookmark the page and save your recipes

 

[kabonk]

did you get them from vapingzone or ecigexpress? I keep looking at those maybe I'll try a few from each

I am a little afraid of the butter/custard flavors...

Justin, the custard and cream flavors are really good for cutting a sharp taste you might get from a fruit flavor. An added dimension that does not have to overwhelm a juice. Just a little can make a flavor come alive!

Capellas butter and vanilla custard don't have the dangerous ingredients (I forget what they are called)

wow I have stayed away from all of them because of the not nice things. I thought they were in all the flavors like that. I will have to get some of the Capellas

Terry made me go look for it-diacetyl

Quoted from another thread...
"Originally Posted by cosmopaladin
You might know this already, but just in case you don't (you said you were new to vaping). From wherever you order check that they guaranty all of their flavors are diacetyl free. Diacetyl is used for a buttery/popcorn flavors and when vaporized at high temps and inhaled it, it can cause popcorn lung/Bronchiolitis obliterans which is not curable without a lung transplant. Anyways I know it use to be in some buttery flavored e-juice and should not be in any anymore. Any reputable places juices is likely ok. Just it is good to check or stay away from buttery flavors if you are really concerned.

Also if you do do DIY juices as someone else suggested, Lorann flavors, which most people use as flavoring is Diacetyl free or so the site sight says. Lots of people use it and I have yet to hear of any issues.

Good luck with finding a flavor you like."

 

[j_fro]

Yeah, Diacetyl is the buttery one, custard is a related compound that starts with an A... Thanks for the heads up on the Cap flavors though

BTW- did anyone see the madvapes study of Nic through 8 weeks (differing storage methods). They found at 8 weeks the only storage technique that showed a lowering of Nic level was open to the air on a window sill. It lost 1mg/ml. I was pretty surprised by that one.
