I'm not sure where this post should go so I'm sticking it here.

There's a juice (Mojito) that I got hooked on shortly after I started vaping, it came from my local brick and mortar store. He mixed his juices at 40 PG/60 VG, 24 mg nic. Over time he changed the ratio to 30 PG/70 VG and now it's too thick. For me. Also, as I tried new juices from different vendors my taste buds changed and the flavor of this Mojito is no longer quite what I like.

So, I started adding a little bit of sweetener. That was good. It needs a little more mint. Mmmmm. That's better. It needs to be a little thinner so I added PG... and I finally got something I really, really like at the viscosity that won't kill coils in my clearomizers. Being a person who likes to share I gave a couple of friends a sample to try. They really liked it!

And asked if I'd make them some more. They're willing to pay me for it as well so I'm not out anything on supplies. I'll only charge them for what I use because I'm not out to make a profit.

Tonight I've been busy making like a mad scientist and mixing. I don't use a formula as I just add a little to the base juice and go from there.

Add a little of this. Vape. Add a little of that. Vape. It needs a little more of this. Vape. Lather, rinse, repeat as necessary.

Now, I've been at this for over an hour or so and pretty much chain vaping (via direct dripping) something that started out at 24 mg of nic. These days I only vape 12 mg at most so I'm a little dizzy from all the nic I've been vaping. There's a killer headache just around the corner waiting to pounce. So far I've mixed two 50 ml bottles and one 30 ml bottle and the last one's almost there. Almost but not quite. It's probably a good idea to leave it for the night and start again tomorrow but I really want to finish this. Lol. It's bad enough that I play with the juices that are already premade. Can you imagine the havoc I could raise if I were to take the final step and start to DIY?

i sometimes mix and match what i have on hand and a few juices really got better with just a simple bit of this and a simple bit of that and voila WTF did i make but it is good lmao

Lol. I just killed a battery with all the testing I've done tonight. On to the charger it goes.

This is why I keep a bunch of glass bottles on hand - just so I can mix stuff in small batches. If something doesn't turn out right it's not like there's a lot of liquid that gets wasted. If it turns out good then I can mix a larger batch. Which reminds me I need more glass bottles. Lol.

But isn't it great when something goes right and it turns out to be delicious?

You, dear heart, are pure evil! Lol. It's only a matter of time before I start going down that road. Right now I'm just getting my toes wet. I think I have about half of what I need to get started though. *sighs*

VG and pg are cheap. Buy it on amazon and get a quart. More then you will need off the bat but you can use most of it pretty easily.

Just ordered more PG from ecigexpress about an hour ago because I used up the last of what I had on hand with the last batch. Thankfully, it was enough. You say I can get this from Amazon by the quart??? Hmmmm. I do have a Prime account... how do you know which ones are safe to vape though?

i read somewhere wal mart and some pharmacies keep that stuff along with vg. and flavorings you could always buy at your local bakery supply shop

Good to know, thanks. That's what I was looking at.

those ones are specifically made for e-cig use. purest you can get from what i have heard.. i used a testing kit and they came out almost perfect.
