submitted over 9 years ago by coolcat97

After reading through all the beginner guides, finally ordering a kit, to mixing by weight.. All I can say is wow.

I love you all. This community is awesome and I've been vaping on my DIY mustards milk. Ohhhhhh so delicious. AND CHEAP TOO!!!!

Thank you all so much. As a lurker, I've learned so much from this sub it's amazing.

It just works in this scenario. No biggie.

This is by far the best calculator to use. So easy and filled with tons of features. eJuiceMeUp is way too convoluted and a pain in the ass to use IMO.

Congrats and good luck on your first mixture. Extreme care with the nicotine is the first rule in diy.

It's actually "Read the sidebar..."

Maybe you should read the sidebar ;)

Ive tried two little test bottles, neither wow'd me. Still holding out hope. I tend not to get sick of things I like so all I need is ONE all day vape and I will be a happy camper

I had the same issues. Once you hit that ADV you'll be golden. I make 120ml bottles only because that's the biggest bottle I have lol. I've literally made liters of it now.

1% FA - Vienna cream
4% TFA - Banana Cream
2% TFA - Milk chocolate
4% TFA - Strawberry (ripe)
4% TFA - VBIC
It uses very common flavors that a lot will already have. Plus I run about 2 tanks a day through my arctic tank and the coils last about 3-4 weeks which is nice.

Not op but look for skiddlzninjas nana cream clone. Fizzmustards is incredible too, simpler ingredients as well. They're both very similar and I've vaped over a liter of it (both).

I just started making 200ml batches after buying [this bottle.] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B5138SO?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00) I like the tip on it too, easy to fill up smaller travel bottles and the such.

I do it by volume because it's close enough. I make it 500 ml at a time. I am just getting to the end of my September batch, gotta make more tomorrow.

i would recommend try the weighting route, my mix taste so much better compared to measuring with ml and no mess.

I don't need to get that exact. I vape not to smoke, and mix to save money. I don't do it as a hobby.

Buy a scale once, never buy syringes again... saved you some money.

2 points

by [deleted]over 9 years ago

Yeah I make that large of batches and I see no need to get a scale. It's not even that difficult or messy.

Mixing by weight is so much easier. I mainly vape to not smoke but it's kind of grown on me as a hobby. That said, im not too picky about my juice. Out of all my recipes 2 were not vapeable. Mixing by weight is just so much easier.

I just started mixing on the 17th, mustards milk was my first brew, first try I accidently switched the percentages, so it's more like mustards strawberry. But I made 60ml the correct way but won't try it till I finish my first bottle, pumped to finally try a nicely steeped mustards milk. I'll be trying it in a few more days. I made an amazing vape using mocca, cookie, and honey dew though. After a little tweaking it will for sure be a flavor worth sharing.

i've been wanting to try mustard milk for awhile now but the word has it that it doesn't really taste that good to begin with.. what do you think? but it only takes 3 flavors to mix so i guess it doesn't hurt to try huh..

It does want time to steep. You can shake and vape it, but after a week or two it's sooo much better, it's worth the wait.

I havnt tried the batches I made properly yet, Im waiting for it to steep but im sure it will be good. The mistake batch Iv been vaping is okay but I can only taste the strawberry (probably because I mixed it wrong). I made the diketone version so it only takes 2 flavors, TFA strawberry and TFA vanilla ice cream. It cant hurt to make if you already have your flavors, or next time you order throw 10ml of them on there. Its pretty much a premium vape that is super easy to make. As the others have said, steeping is nessisary.

getting the exceptional recipes that you can make with your current ingredients is the hard part.

Mediocre/bought juice quality is easy though.

i dont get the hype about mustard milk though, it just tastes like a rather bland VBIC base to me.

how long have you let it steep?

1 points

by D1STURBED36over 9 years ago

going on 3 weeks now.. still tastes the same as it was first made, made a bottle before that with the same result. Im thinking its my strawberry or my tastebuds response to strawberry because my other strawberry juices havnt had much noticable, if any strawberry..

Another newbie DIY-er here, just ordered my first kit today. Already got some concentrates in and can't wait to get mixing, just after a quick sniff of those! :)
