First DIY eJuice. Thanks r/DIY_eJuice

submitted almost 7 years ago by k4win

I asked a question about CAP Vanilla Custard and some user pointed me to recipes like Alfred's Pudding. This sound so delicious that i decided to make it my first DIY mix and so here it is:

Nothing special about the mix but this post is about a thank you. Thanks for all the recipes, your ongoing effort and support here. Keep on mixing.

Hehe I saw the picture before I read the title and thought "this must be the first mix with a label like that". I applaud your effort, good luck with your deep dive into this hobby.

I must ask, how do you label yours?

I am currently using paper stickers and a pen and considering adding some colors so I could differ bottles from a larger distance.

Pretty sure I still got some neanderthal in me, when it comes to things like this.

I print labels off. I wanted to go into the industry, but you know... FDA.

On black friday, office depot was doing a really good sale on a brother pt-d210 label makerfor $10 bucks. It came with 13ft sample of label roll.

Then I bought a 5pack of generic white laminated tze tape on ebay for $10 that are 26ft each. 5 pack of different colors is like $13
they peel off really easy, water resistant and doesnt smear + doing chain labels really helps save some tze tape.

Before I saw that deal, I was looking on craigslist, fb marketplace,let go and offer up for some $10 label makers. Just order generic refills on amazon or ebay since the OEM label tape are quite expensive.

in that $10 price range, you're most likely looking at the small DYMO label makers with the keyboard set up as ABCD-order instead of a regular QWERTY.

I bought a used label printer for like 10 or 20 bucks, and have a stack of label cassettes from China that cost a few bucks each.

I don't even label mine. It's like juice roulette

That was my initial plan first too. I thought "Screw it.. I can EASILY remember what is in which bottle, no problem". Well nope!

I like juice roulette too. A lot of my juices have subtle differences and grabbing a random one along the same line helps differentiate them better to me.

Well this was a pleasant surprise! I’m genuinely so happy that I could create something interesting for you. Please keep me updated on how it turns out. I’ll definitely keep putting in the effort, and hopefully I can make a few more things you’ll want to try out.

I'm in the infancy stages of diy eJuice, what a rabbit hole.

Right now I'm gathering some of mixing supplies that'll be needed, next looking at recipes and trying to find out what liquids will be needed, amount of PG and VG to get started, what strength nic to get, flavors, etc...........

Newbie question:

I don't know labels yet, can you tell me where you bought your flavors? Did you use the premix from Liquid Barn for the Alfred's Pudding?

In the u.s. Bull city flavors or ecigexpress sell concentrate as well as other items needed for diy ejuice.

I've only gotten flavors from bull city flavors. Quick shipping and they carry alot. I've had no reason to go to a different vendor

The flavours in the picture are bought from chefsflavors. A great company from the uk.

Lol, I'm in the states.

Iirc, the shipping costs are around 5$ flat and it takes 7-14 days to as arrive. On the other hand, you may find vendors in the states. Others may help out here.

That sounds really good. I’ve never DIY before. How’s it taste? Easier than expected to do? I might have to give it a shot.
