###Thinking of starting DiY and have questions? Please check the sidebar links and the WIKI first.
Weekly New Mixers Questions Thread

Use the search function before posting questions.


##Vendors
Commercial posts are discouraged- Vendors please post to /r/ecig_vendors, if you wish to cross post to /r/diy_ejuice after your thread is posted to /r/ecig_vendors, please contact the mod team with a link to your OP requesting permission. We will respond within 24 hours.

Users: If you choose to cross post from /r/ecig_vendors to /r/diy_ejuice items that look attractive to DiY'ers, that is most certainly permitted, however, if we notice an account that only does that (aka a vendor shill) that account will be banned and related posts removed). Reviews of DiY product and service are always welcome.


##Recipe Posting
All recipes should be posted in their appropriate threads. That said...

If you want to post a recipe you've been working on and you are offering an insane amount of discussion/information with your OP, you are welcome to post it in the main sub.

Quality examples of what new recipe posts should look like if you post to the main sub:
Mustard Milk by /u/fizzmustard
Nana Cream Clone by /u/fizzmustard
My Effort Cloning Shurb by /u/vaperous
Please keep in mind, even if you post in the main sub, be sure to cross post the recipe to the correct thread for posterity.

If you aren't willing to write this much detail, please confine your recipe posts to their appropriate threads:
Monthly Recipe Thread
Clone Recipes
Flavor of the Week


##Requests:
Monthly Clone Request Thread
Weekly 'Suggest a Recipe for my Flavors' Thread


##Buying/Selling /r/diy_ejuice is NOT the proper place to request to purchase juice from DiY'ers. If you are looking to buy cheap DiY juice, please post in /r/ecigclassifieds/.
If you are looking to buy/sell/trade DiY Supplies, please post to /r/ecigclassifieds/ before cross posting to /r/diy_ejuice.
DiY Group Buys are permitted in /r/diy_ejuice.


#####If you see a post that is not in compliance with these guidelines, please downvote, report and move on. Do not badger the OP. Thanks in advance - The Mod Team

^Any ^discussions ^related ^to ^THC ^or ^other ^forms ^of ^using ^DiY ^to ^do ^something ^illegal, ^will ^be ^removed ^and ^you ^run ^the ^risk ^of ^getting ^banned ^from ^the ^sub. ^Also, ^please ^avoid ^discussion ^about ^pure ^nicotine.

Such a great post, super helpful to newbs...but front page in a few hours:

I prefer FA's Window Cleaner. FW Windex just doesn't do it for me.

I like the new(ish) rules about posting a thread for a recipe. I've seen a lot of posts lately like "my first mix" or "any ideas for this mix?" when really those should be in the recipe thread.

Good stuff, glad you guys compiled a post like this.

hey Botboy, is there something we can do about all these vapemail posts? I like this thread because it ISN'T the ecig subreddit, and it seems to be slowly getting filled with vapemail posts.

Will talk to the mods but I don't see us restricting vape mail type of posts. This is something we'll typically let the nature of reddit deal with, just downvote and move on.

Yeah, I guess its just something I'll have to get used to as the sub gets more and more subscribers :/

Hey guys, I stalk this thread a whole lot but don't post much. How do I add the category to which something is posted? As in that rectangle that will say "recipes" or "supplies" I know I know, noob question.

After you've submitted a new post, you can add a "flair" via all the options at the bottom of your post.

What about experiences with DIY vendors, both good & bad?

Reviews of vendors, flavors etc have always been and will always be welcome.

A clean well moderated sub is a happy sub. I sift through enough recipes where someone clearly just guessed percentages, tried it and because it didn't such they thought it was the best out could be.

This is an art people. Put time into it and don't ask repetitive questions.

Yay, it'll do some good to get it all cleaned up. Granted, I've broke some rules listed here like the recipe posting. I try to write about my thoughts and whatnot about it, but I'm just not as experienced as the others.

by Botboy141over 10 years agoMixing like a mad man...

As long as you are at least including your thought process to the best of your ability you are fine.

I'm more so targeting the , hey guys it's my first mix, 3% strawberry, 10% blueberry, 5% peach, let me know what you think!

1 points
 
by Chrononaughtover 10 years agoOne of "The Damned"

Oh ok makes perfect sense! Thanks for the clarification. Oh, I tried you Delicious Vanilla Recipe and added .5% Coconut Extra and .25% Acetyl Pyrazine and it's probably the most amazing thing to grace my taste buds.

Edit: also added 1% FA Classic vanilla and .5% FA Vanilla Bourbon. It's a lot of ingredients, but damn am I in love.

Well shit, sorry about that. I have sent several people over here for this very reason, to buy DIYer's liquids. Ill send them on over to eclass. Thanks for the clarification and not reaming me a new one, B.

grumbles contest mode..

Haha i'll pop contest mode off.

Yeah we don't want to have to police scammers here nor have it turn into a spamfest of sell me cheap shit.

by To0nMaNover 10 years ago

I hear ya, to be honest i just didnt know where to send them so i suggested the sub. Makes perfect sense to send them to eclass and i will do so in the future. As this is by far my favorite sub i do not want to be part of the problem.

Not sure where I should put this, since we are discussing the sub and Mods are here... (Will move if you like, didn't want to create off topic post on front page.)

.

DIY_eJuice is the only sub that doesn't work with Never Ending Reddit.(Part of RES)

It actually works in FireFox, but is broken in Chrome.

Are others having this issue?

Not sure if the sub's CSS is breaking it or something, I'm not a web dev guy.

by captaincannibalover 10 years ago

Never Ending Reddit works fine here on Chrome for me. I've seen it stop working plenty of times while browsing around Reddit though.

In Chrome, hit ctrl+shift+del, clear cache, cookies, etc and reboot and try it again. If normal troubleshooting doesn't help the best thing to do would be to go to the RES sub and ask them if they know why it doesn't work sometimes.

I use res with no problem on Chrome. And this is where I spend most of my reddit time.

Mods and I will discuss but I know there are other resources out there that cater to this specifically.

What's with the pure nicotine rule too? There's nothing illegal about it, just dangerous.

5 points
 
by Botboy141over 10 years agoMixing like a mad man...

Way too dangerous for it to be considered for DIY at home.

This is a DIY sub, not a commercial ejuice production sub.
