I can't tell if you have your nicotine out or if any at all. But try to keep nic in a dark place so it doesn't oxidize. And I personally keep my flavors in a pullout drawer so they're in a dark place as well. Light can degrade flavors over time so keep that in mind. Happy mixing, and as always remember to have fun.

First thing I plan on doing is making a 100%vg test of each flavor at 5% just to get an idea for what they taste like. Then mixing a few of the popular clones on this subreddit, and finally eventually mixing and matching to make my own!

Any tips for a newbie, guys?

My biggest tip:

Keep a journal - either on paper, or in a spreadsheet somewhere. Label everything so you can trace it back to the journal.

In the journal, write down everything. What you mixed and what amounts, Any mixing or steeping methods, and your initial taste notes. Also, if you steep, keep track of what you did - lid on, lid off, how often to shake, and notes after x days or weeks or months of steeping.

The worst feeling in the world would be making something absolutely awesome, and having no idea how you did it.

Also, it will help you learn what flavors shine right away, or need time, how flavors mend together over time, and help you avoid replicating mistakes.

Thanks for the tips, bud. I definitely plan to keep a journal with everything logged. Hopefully can figure it out pretty quick.

Just mixed my first batch of TSA cheesecake graham crust and it's not too bad. Fun stuff!

If you are into the ceral vapes (fruit loops specifically) give the Tongue Fuck a try. Or look at Jackster's Cereal Killa clones. They are easy to make and taste great, imo.

These look awesome. I'm already buying more flavors, lol.

Im not sure if it was fresh cream, or sweet cream, but be careful with some mixes alone at 5%. It is in my journal at home so I will edit this comment when I get there, but one of the flavours tasted exactly like vomit when I vaped it standalone at 5%. I almost puked and was left nauseous all day

Great tip. I see lots of comments about bring careful with that cream, mixing only at 1% or 2%, so it very well could be.
