Start up DIY list

[Rnroutlaw]

Well from all the reading i've been doing I think I have a list of everything I need to buy to get started with this DIY plan.
1.) VG 2.) PG 3.) Nicotine base 50/50 4.) Plastic dropper bottles 5.) 5 ml. syringe 6.) 1 ml. syringe
And of course flavorings. So how does this look? Am I at at least on the right track?

I would grab a few different size syringes 1-5-10 ml but then again I usually mix 30 ml's at a time so some ratio's are 7-9 ml just makes it easier and there cheap.

Yeah I'm only going to mix 10 ml at a time. There are so many flavoring brands. Any I should stay away from?

A box (25) 2 dram bottles for flavor testing. $12. They add in free pipettes, funnels bottle labels etc.
Glass Vials | Accessories For Fragrances | Glass vials for perfume samples and other uses, stopper vials and vials with screw caps

Looks good! I would grab 3 1 ml syringes, and 2 3ml syringes so you don't have to get up and rinse them out while mixing up a batch. Make sure you get some kind of sweetener, some smooth (or other such 'fixer') and some koolada or menthol. Those are needed in small amounts in lots of juices. Also, order twice as many plastic dropper bottles as you currently have on your list. Trust me!

As far as flavoring brands, I am not that experienced. I have almost all TFA flavors, but am in a co-op for some Nature's Flavors. It's hit and miss and depends on your palate. I'm trying to master what I have before going over the deep end and trying the others.

I agree get a lot of bottles As far as flavors it can be hit and miss.Try and get a few from different companys and I would start with simple mixes at first and remember to always start low on your flavor % and add more if needed.If you could let us know what kind of flavors you like we might be able to help more.

Well, Im partial to the fruity flavors. I would like a tobacco flavored one as well maybe with a hint of vanilla with it. I am heading over to the wizard labs site friday to see if they are ready to accept orders. And btw, I love Tucson! I use to live there. Lakeside Village apts on Golf Links rd. Man do I miss Los Betos

Get an ejuice calc. If you order from MT. baker vapor, you mix their juice at 20%. I would also mix in 3ml quantities and not use nic. until you have figured out the flavoring. Just remember too much flavoring can cause no taste and write everything down so not to forget your mix.

Sounds good and wow, I forgot I had downloaded an ejuice calculator from here somewhere. Thanks for the reminder
