Hello vapers, i hope u all have a nice day
In my country selling e juice is forbidden so its so so expensive, like the cheapest 120 would cost aroud 35-40$ and buying from other diy'rs will cost like 100ml for around 28$
I searched and read alot about making my own juice, i can get my hands on everything except for flavours , i cant get the flavours u guys are using the the tfa and cap etc
Only source is localy made flavoring which is made for vaping and its safe
But not getting the exact flavours as u guys, can i make same mixes u post or it should be the same company? Is there a source for flavours with good international shipping rates?
Since you don't have the same flavorings, any recipe you try will not work out exactly the same way. But that's not necessarily bad. You might find something even better.
if I were you, I would just start experimenting with the flavors you have. The recipes you find online might serve as a guide but it won't be exactly the same. And there's nothing wrong with that - one of the benefits of DIY is to adjust things to the way you like it.
You won't be able to use posted recipes. You can use them for ideas on how to blend your own flavors. Does the company making the flavors you can get have a name? Or are you talking home made flavors that someone sells?
.
Can you post where you are so that others can suggest a flavor site?
Its local manufacturer that specialised in making food concentrates, they claim that their vaping line doesnt contain sugars or ketons, i can link the site for the retailer

Maybe take a look and tell me what u think
You can try to use the recipes posted but it won't turn out the exact same, that may not be a bad thing. You will have a similar path that the first mixers had. You can totally mix your own with those flavors but you may need to do more experimenting which may cost you more at the beginning but knowing you made a recipie that is your own is more satisfying than you can imagine. If you need any help with percentages or ideas send me a message.
Thanks for the help, ofc ill keep that in mind when i receive the nicotine, i would say i have a good palette so im looking forward to make some mixes

I've also noticed,with strawberry for example, if I use one kind of strawberry its ok but using two different kinds it makes the flavor seem more authentic. I'll use a strawberry and ripe strawberry together and it turns out better.
What country do you reside in if you don't mind? There are mixers from around the globe on here that could direct you to an online vendor that would likely be able to get a pack to you, but would this be considered illegal (or just "forbidden") and are you willing to absorb that risk?
I think you'll likely have much more success at DIY by obtaining at least some of the mainstay flavors we all use, and then you can branch out and try the local stuff (or both).
I live in jordan middle east
I think ill try ordering couple of them on ebay i jusy found some1 who ships them, i dont have any idea about the laws but ill just give it a try
What should i start with? Which flavors should i buy as a new boy
Lorann flavorings should be easy to get on amazon or Ebay. I have tried Inawera, Capella, Flavorah, and FlavorArt. Of the four I have used I would rate the Flavorah as #1 and Inawera as #2 followed by Capella at #3. I am buying all of the Flavorah flavors (at 18 currently) before I buy any other brand, they are soooooooo delicious and very concentrated. I think Inawera is in Europe somewhere, maybe you should check their website and see if they ship to your area.
Agreed with others - you can't use different flavours and get the same result but you CAN use the recipes you see as inspiration for flavour profiles that suit what you have. It may take some experimenting but you might get some awesome results.
Start off simple - 3 flavour mixes that are known good profiles. Like for example - the standard 'strawberry cream', look at their strawberry offerings and their cream offerings and see how well they go together. If the strawberry seems weak or not full eough see if they have another strawberry and perhaps try mixing two types into the recipe. You should find very quickly you get GOOD juices, but with a little time and practice you'll get GREAT juices.
Great comment, i just had an idea
Since nicotine conc. Is gonna cost me whole alot, u think i can try to mix vg/pg/flavor first to make surr i can make it work then i buy the nicotine?
I think thats a goof idea, 1 liter of pg/vg costs around 10$
I dont think it's a bad idea to start mixing at 0 nic to see if the juice will be alright. Itll definitely save you money since you wont be wasting money on nic.
Absolutely!!! - in fact i'd recommend it. Nicotine can change flavour a little but unless you're vaping at high nic levels the only thing it really adds is the throat hit. If you have a good tasting juice, you should have a good tasting juice with nicotine Just remember you won't get that throat hit without the nic so if that's important to you don't judge the no-nic juice on it's lack of throat hit.
I'd also recommend the usual mixing of each flavour you buy as a single flavour just to get used to how it's supposed to taste on it's own. It'll help you when you go to adjust your recipe and tell you if you can get away with adding more percent or if you should go to a complimentary flavour to round it out. You may have a few failures, but i think you'll find that pretty quick you start finding what works and you're more and more happy with your product.
I'd also recommend watching some youtube recipes where the tuber explains the flavours they're going for - you'll find yourself thinking about which flavours you have that give a similar taste.
Atleast how I look at it, the flavorings used for ejuice is just regular food flavorings - like one would use for making candy, desserts, baked goods etc., if flavors are the only things in the package. If you told the online shop to put a description like "Food Flavorings for cake" or similar on the package or toll declaration, it should only be considered as such. But you should wait for other redditor's opinions here before doing it to be certain.
I assume you're using Egnite Flavors? I started out using their concentrates back when I began mixing about a year and a half ago, since then I've moved to TFA (which I bought mostly from a couple of guys that were selling on Facebook. Check this group out), but I still use their VG/PG, Sweet, Ice (Koolada) and some other occasional flavors.
For a relatively new flavor manufacturer, Egnite aren't bad really. Their concentrates are pretty much a hit or miss (Hits: Banana Cream, Marshmallow, Bubble Gum, Green Apple, Ice and Sweet. Misses: Honeydew and Cantaloupe (awful nailpolish taste), Butterscotch and Glazed Donuts), but that's the same deal with most flavor manufacturers out there. You just gotta try a few of their flavors, experiment a bit and see what works for you.
By the way, I talked to the owner a few months ago and they were working on introducing some new flavors containing Diketones to give that rich creamy feel. So yeah, they are constantly improving and introducing new flavors from the way I see it.
Check out ELR for some of their recipes out there: http://e-liquid-recipes.com/list?q=egnite
Best of luck!
Well hello my friend, thanks for the feed back its good to hear from some1 who tried them
That was very helpful, first of all their pg/vg are good quality?
U think i should only order what u mentioned? OMG egnite list recipes thats so helpful man thanx alot
Happy to be of help my fellow Jordanian!
Their PG/VG is top notch. From I know, it's imported and not locally manufactured.
Here are some of my own more successful Egnite recipes (man I used to experiment the hell out of their flavors, good days). See whichever suits your profile better and maybe grab some of those flavors:
Also their Lime Pie is quite good.
There are a number of good recipes you can have with just tfa and cap. It does limit your recipes but you can still have good juice. Do you know if ordering abroad is allowed? Maybe chefsflavours cna ship to you.
