Just mixed my first batch today!
submitted about 9 years ago by Aviduser09

I received the first part of my diy order today, mixed up a quick easy recipe. Turned out good, I'm stoked to try some other recipes out! Should have the rest of my flavors tommorow.

Just wanted to share my excitement somewhere, vaping was getting to be as expensive as smoking was for me. Not anymore!

Thanks to everyone who contributes to this sub. For anyone in western canada, I'd like to recommend firstchoicevapor. Fast shipping, well packaged, good nic quality. Not associated in anyway, just want to support local bussiness(hope thats okay here).

Thanks again!

Noice. Just started mixing too, already have a weight on the way, because fuck cleaning all those syringes.

So far, the best thing I've noticed is that i don't have to change cotton every 3 days, because my coils and cotton gunk up so bad.

Glad you made the leap over to the other side. It can get overwhelming and frustrating so take your time as it's a journey. Like others I went nuts and got too many flavorings and started to bust out 30+ recipes, especially the clones. I found 95% unvapable and turned me off of DIY for a while but I'm back at it now. For recipes your best bet is actually here probably under the monthly threads. People adding notes is the best info you'll get anywhere.

e-liquid-recipes.com is the wild west for recipes but it's still a must to sign up, especially for their calculator so you can input your totals to get grams (in options) instead of ml to make life so much easier.

Thanks for the advice.

I def. will take note of some recipes in this sub. I've got 4 highly rated recipes from e-liquid-recipes.com. It seems you can't have too many flavors. I could see mixing some of the more complex flavors being a bit of trial/error.

I just started with cream and bought flavors that I liked (berry/hazelnut), kind of mimicking some major label brands (blue elixir mostly). I have reached 20% (6ml for 30ml batches) and found the flavors are really good. Ive yet to follow a recipe but am not writing that off. I love the fact that I know exactly what is in my juice the most, but flavor is really just as important. Good luck moving forward!
