You might try posting your Flavors in the suggest a recipe thread, or using the what can I make with my flavors search on ATF. Just out of curiosity how long did you steep the mustard milk?

God Milk, Cuprian, cliche, cereally easy loops or crunchies. I'd recommend some more recipes that aren't mine, but I don't really have a need for any more simple recipes :/

Got a link to the simple sugar cookie recipe? I'm waiting on my first batches of Unicorns Milk & Mustard Milk to steep. On day five now. Looks like I'm one step behind you :)

Simple Sugar Cookie is one of my favorite recipes as well. I always have a bottle of it around. Once you post your flavor lost, we can help more. But I want to suggest Batter Up by u/NotCharlesManson. Just FYI, I think I have the same taste as you in juice, and Batter Up is honestly the most impressive yet simple recipe that I continue to make. I have more recommendations, jus need to see your list.

Custody is a simple vanilla custard, just three ingredients. It is delishus!

What is SC? Do you mean RF?

Drop CAP dragonfruit and use TFA instead. Lower INW Grape slightly, and I'm guessing SC Blackberry is where the dryness is coming in. /u/vurve introduced me to FW blackberry, and it's pretty much everything I've needed in a blackberry flavor.

"bullshit."

It's supposed to be a mouthfeel, but really it's just a word we've learned to use to make you want to try out recipe as compared to someone else's.

A cola flavor is not going to help you. FA Lime Distilled might but I'm not entirely sure, not having tried that drink. You probably want to create something stellar and present it to her completely finished, but if it were me, I'd probably make up a bunch of single-flavor limes for her to try and let her tell you which one tastes more like Red Bull Lime Edition to her.

I'd say you want LA Lemonade as the base for this, it has an almost carbonated feel to it, more so than anything else I've tried. It's also a fantastic flavour.

FW Keylime has quickly become my favourite lime flavour, it reminds me of lime cordial, which would probably work well with this, and it's not too sharp tasting so should sit well with the lemonade.

I'd probably go with - 4% LA Lemonade 3% FW Keylime

There are red bull flavors out there. One of those with some LA Lemonade and like 0.25-0.5% INW lime and you should get pretty close

Hey buddy, I think I can help you with this. Get yourself some FA Aurora. It is a lime-centered flavor with a carbonated aspect, and I think it would be perfect for this. It is also basically delicious by itself--- if she likes Lime Red Bull, she'd probably enjoy vaping standalone FA Aurora at 2.5-3.0% in the meantime while you are crafting the rest of the recipe =) It really stands up to other flavors very nicely, I would recommend starting at 2.0% with it, but you will actually probably want to use more as you adjust the lime flavor to her taste.

Edit- here is ConcreteRiver's review on this flavor -- I really think it's a perfect match for you. I also just used it to make a badass Lime Coke a few days ago, which is shake-and-vape deliciousness. If you're going to order a Cola flavor, definitely go with FA USA Pleasure (Cola)

I'd say ditch the accessories and just buy a scale that measures down to 0.01g. and a few bottles in 10ml and 30ml. If the flavors are bottled with dropper caps then you won't need syringes. And you can get pipettes/gloves for cheap if you need them.

It's usually cheaper to buy things separately than to buy the kits, but not always. Do a little shopping around if you are trying to save money.

Edit: this could be helpful

It looks like you're buying from makemyvape. I bought my first kit from there too!! I'll echo what the other poster said. Buy these things separately. The flavours do come with droppers but you won't need syringes etc if you have a scale. Trust me, washing syringes and waiting for them to dry properly is a pain. Go with an electronic scale. The scale they have on "offer" there is exactly like the one I bought from Amazon for the same price. Also, check this out: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B01N2KKEPI/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The tiny funnels are AWESOME for putting pg and vg in the bottles. There might be greater deals elsewhere, this is just the one I found. As far as the flavours are concerned- think before you buy. Check ELR and alltheflavours and look at top recipes there (a lot of feedback, comments etc). Find a flavour profile you know you like and buy the flavours for the recipe. For example I know I love nanner bear and nana cream so I bought the flavours for these recipes so I made something I KNOW I'll like. Once you have things you like around, you can start expanding and experimenting a bit. For flavours look at chefsflavour. They have a bigger selection than makemyvape. So, all in all, I hope this helps. I was in your shoes around three weeks ago as I decided to get into diy just before tpd hit so I bought a fuckton of nicotine, but I can be very obsessive once interested in something. I hope this helps.

Suggest A Recipe Thread, please

JF honeydew melon all the way

JF Honeydew Melon or TFA Honeydew.

LA Lemonade, RF SC Blueberry Lemonade Slushie, LA Watermelon for some summer flavors

TFA Honeydew is IMO the best

Try CAP Lemon Sicily or CAP Juicy Lemon ( I personally prefer this lemon), and either FA Strawberry or TFA Blueberry Extra for Strawberry/Blueberry lemonades, great summer flavors!

Wizard labs has flavor packs.

5 flavors for like 5-7$

Ecigexpress has some, but you won't really save any money buying them that way.

GremlinDIY sells 5ml bottles of almost all their offerings if you want to get the most variety for spending the least.

Only ones I've seen are TFAs website 4ml sample packs but going by their top 12 pack it's going to be the same price buying the individual 10mls flavors from bullcity ($1.29 for 10ml @bullcity, $1.29 for 4ml TFAs website)

Nude Nicotine has five 5ml samples for 10$. International post.

.75%-1% works for me.

What % are you using them at?

Combo of FA Watermelon and CAP Double

FW Watermelon is candyish but tastes great!

I'm just gonna throw this out there and say........I don't think real watermelon tastes of anything really anyway

Jam a paper clip down the spout, it helps open up the hole a little bit so it's not so much of a pain.

A pair of scissors? Just cut a bit of the tip off?

You could order from Wizard Labs next time. They have bottles without drip tips. They give you yorker caps though. Get some pipettes off ebay, and you are set. I know this doesn't help now, but maybe it will in the future.

You just mixed it up? I like to steep at least a week maybe 2 weeks before changing anything. That being said, I personally would make a second batch, cutting the peach and honeysuckle in half, then after a couple of weeks compare them both.

Single flavor testing?

You do it the same way you would with a normal mix but with just one flavor and normally without nicotine. A lot of people don't like to waste the nicotine but I personally always mix with nicotine.

Most people use an RDA to test new flavors as it's easy to re-wick and flavor is usually at the peak. I use my Troll RTA as I no longer enjoy vaping from a RDA and the flavor is usually better for me. Just use your preferred tank/RDA that makes it easiest for you.

You can make separate mixes all at different percentages to see the characteristics of the flavor and take notes on them.

I set up different RDAs and test each flavor on a separate RDA. I generally drink something lime to clear my palate if it's a new recipe I'm working on that I actually care about. Otherwise I just wick, drip, they get a pass or fail and I move on from there.

What is Lucilles?

FA Fresh Cream would be the closest, but you'll need to back it off a bit. Try 1%.

Absolutely. We can react differently to the chemicals, we may get different impressions from them or may not be able to sense some of them at all. This means that some will not be able to taste for example a strawberry that only uses certain components, while they can taste other brands that use different ones. It means that some will pick up off-flavors that most don't, or get a completely different impression of them. On top of this, we may not like certain flavors, or may not like to vape them. Unfortunately, there is only one way to find out.

I run into a whole bunch of problems like the ones you describe if I use too much flavoring though. TFA Pineapple above 1% makes any juice taste like vomit to me, regardless of the recipe, but below that it's a marvellous flavor that can really spice up a mix. One drop of INW Cactus can absolutely destroy a mix, while really juicing up others, this one is highly situational for me. TFA Pear though, I'm not a big fan of in general, but again, used in small quantities could probably bring something unique to the table. Although I much prefer FA Pear.

Ive thrown up from vaping TFA pear. I was pretty drunk already though. However I feel like if i had not hit tfa pear i would have not thrown up that night. Although if I wasnt drunk I prolly wouldnt have thrown up that night either...

I'm a cough medicine taster on certain tobacco flavors. Seems to be the ones that are "leathery." INW Western was the worst. Made me feel sick.

FA bilberry tastes like onions and gives me a headache. I've tried .25% in a heavy recipie seeing if it would mask it, and it's all i can taste. Fuckin onions.

You may lose some of the finer, sharper notes from fruits and berries faster than normal. You may find the nicotine slightly harsher day by day. But the temperatures you're talking about are just above room temperature, so while you may notice some change over time, it should be pretty negligible.

Aside from the initial calibration, I've done it one other time. And that was because I had a weird feeling it was off. I can't say for certain whether it actually was, but it only takes a minute anyways. Once you know how much of something you add, you just know. You definitely do not need to calibrate every time you use it.

I'll be honest, I've never calibrated mine and I've had it for years. Although I probably should (and would if I had the weights), it still reads accurate enough for my needs. For me, it's not that important.

The real answer is probably to do it as often as you can be bothered, at least once a year, but all scales are different. Some may need it constantly, some never. I'd refer to the manual.

Do you have the weights it came with? try them on the scale, if it reads off then maybe need a calibration otherwise i dont think u ever need one. can also use a nickel i believe its supposed to weigh 5g exactly

Use these threads for questions like this from now on.

I'd have a go at a peanut butter cheesecake using the following...

CAP Peanut butter 4%
TFA Cheesecake Graham crust 2%
CAP sweet cream 1%
TFA Bavarian cream 2%

I'd maybe go crazy and add 2% of the fudge brownie to create a peanut butter fudge brownie cheesecake

Most companies use actual coffee extract in the flavoring so that is definitely going to make the black. I have yet to see one that wasn't black.

CAP Cappuccino isn't that dark, more like a light brown. Not the best coffee flavor, but I kinda like it, even stand-alone. Check some reviews.

Just ordered tpa Mocha it is pretty clear...

Grapes vary wildly from soda to candy to natural grape. What kind of grape are you looking for?

I would say you'd be better off just making another batch considering how small of an amount you made.

It depends on the percentage you're adding though. I've added 1% and less of a flavor to a finished mix without it being detrimental in recreating it.

Medicine Flower makes by far the best caramel I've tried. Unfortunately they're really expensive.

FA Caramel is great. Pretty much the only caramel flavor I use.

FW has a butter toffee that some seem to like. FLV Toffee is also gotten good feedback. I don't see many people use toffee so take these as a grain of salt.

INW has Nugat flavoring. I've never had it. FA Torrone is also a nougat flavor. Everyone loves it but it tastes like pine cones to me.

INW Grapes is awesome if you want a fresh grape flavor. TFA Grape Juice is a artificial grape flavor. Really depends on what kind of grape you're looking for.

Condiment bottles is the usual recommendation.

I use 120 ml plastic bottles with yorker tips.

I use a mini funnel that sits on top of my bottle that I am mixing in. I don't make more than 30ml at a time. My flavours come with drip tops so I only use the funnel for nicotine/pg/vg (to keep flavours away).

No, it's bound to contain organic material, sugars and what not, you don't want to vape that. If you have unflavored vodka, a little bit of that might help, but it won't get you near high PG and double nic.

CAP Super Sweet (20% sucralose) contains preservatives, which isn't great. If I had to choose, I'd probably go with TFA Sweetener (5% sucralose, 5% ethyl maltol).

I don't use sweeteners myself, I find most juices are on the verge of being too sweet as they are. VG is sweet on its own and a lot of flavorings already contain sweeteners. But if I want that little bit extra, I reach for meringue or marshmallow for creamy mixes, and marzipan or FA Pear for fruity ones.

Unfortunately​, time is the best/only way to truly know what your flavors will do. Heating your liquid might help in the short term but ends up degrading your nic and muting your juice.

RF has sent me bottles with dropper tops, but before and after those they did not. You could send them an email and ask to be sure.

TFA Bavarian Cream and FA Caramel

Strawberry is subjective and situational, there are a plethora of them out there. Some struggle to taste artificial strawberry concentrates, so there's that. My personal favorites are TFA Strawberry Ripe, FA Strawberry (Red Touch) and CAP Sweet Strawberry.

RF SC Strawberry, TFA Strawberry ripe, and JF Sweet strawberry

INW Mix Mint is pretty good, TFA for Bavarian Cream

FA or possibly TFA for Apple Pie. Pick up TFA Pie Crust too if you want to lean more on the crust. Neither has a very prominent apple, so you could boost that with FA Fuji or pick some other fruit or berry for a different kind of pie. Options are nice.

for apple pie... this recipe is legit. it's one of the few recipes ive specifically bought flavors for

https://www.reddit.com/r/DIY_eJuice/comments/3dpljm/awesome_apple_pie_v2/

edit forgot to link you brah

Don't buy flavours you think they're good if you're just starting out. Find specific recipes that you want to follow and buy the flavours for these recipes. When you order again next month or whatever do the same for different recipes. Before you know it you'll have both good recipes in bottles and flavours to experiment with combining them. Buying the champagne for example (unless you plan it to vape it solo) is going to be nothing if the recipe you will follow also needs lemonade or cake or whatever.

cinnamon - flv rich cinnamon

caramel - flv or fa

pie crust - tfa

apple - fa fuji or inw two apple/double apple.

>fa apple is just plain and lightly flavored same with Rf. tfa apple is jolly rancher or more candy like. inw anton apple is like sour green apple candy. er inw shisha apple is somewhere in between real and candy... idk not my fav on the list. not my least fav. go w/ fuji or inw two apples

if you are making a pie recipe check out fa liquid amber as well

i forgot to link you that recipe in last comment. its fixed meow

If you're going for an apple pie you might as well skip the headache and just make botboy141's apple pie.

FW has a good version, not as heavy on the cream as TFA

FW version was really disappointing to me, like most of their flavors. It's not very dense or creamy at all. It's got just a light vanilla flavor. I've never tried caps version but the review posted here said it tastes exactly what a cap cream normally tastes like, so by that I know I wouldn't like it. Hangsen ice cream is good. You only need .25%-.50% though and it's better used as an enhancer to other I've cream flavors.

TFA is still the king imo. I haven't found a replacement yet.

TPA and TFA are the same company. Same flavors and yes you can vape them.

I find 3-5% is a good place to start for the PG flavorings, and between 1 and 3.5% for the super concentrated stuff, depending on reviews and smell. 10% is a lot of a single flavor for sub-ohm. This information is probably not for you if you MTL. I THINK you double the numbers for that but I'm not 100% on that.

I usually start with around 4 or 5% for CAP and TFA and 2% for FA or INW.

But first I look here...because some flavors can't be used so high. FA Honey for example...a maximum of 0.5% is advisable.

10% seems ridiculously high to me. I never used that much of anything.

It varies greatly. Some people use a general rule % for a certain brand, like 2% for FA and 5% for TFA, but even that is a pretty bad idea, IMO. For example, TFA Blackberry 5% is horrible but 0.75% is a nice blackberry flavor. You need to look around at how other people are using the flavor. Read reviews if you can find one here: https://www.reddit.com/r/DIY_eJuice/wiki/index/flavor_reviews

Search for the flavor on alltheflavors.com or, less reliably, on ELR. Look at average use percent, look at recipes using them. Search for the flavor here and look for recipes. When in doubt, ask here in the weekly new mixer's thread or personally ask someone who has used it.

10% is so high you might be blowing out the flavors to the point you can barely taste them; it sounds strange but that is a thing.

Yes - it really depends on exactly what kind of strawberry you're going for, but try something like 6% Strawberry Ripe + 3% CAP Sweet Strawberry + 1% FA or INW Shisha.

Another great combination is 3% Strawberry Ripe, 2% Shisha Strawberry, 0.5% FA Strawberry, as seen here: https://alltheflavors.com/recipes/3600#sweet_strawberry_cream_by_cheebasteeba

Yes I have. The Kona and Chock full of nuts are fantastic. I'm not going to lie, they will kill some coils within about 15-20ml. Rewicking is easy though!

VG/PG ratio is about preference, whether you enjoy smooth clouds or more throat hit. Since PG is the main flavor carrier, anything less than 20% will inhibit the flavors, but you won't benefit much beyond 50% PG either, regardless of recipe.
