I wrote a guide on vape . deals (remove the space between vape, the . and deals for the website address) it is on the first page today, click the articles link after today to find it.
My intent was to just pass on some knowledge but keep it simple with links to resources such as the DIY_eJuice sub reddit.
They have asked me to do a part 2 which will go over making your first recipe once you get your supplies. Part 3 will be more advanced and talk about the different flavor companies, additives and flavor blending.....etc.
I have learned a ton from here, ELR, vaping community, VU and more.
I just wanted to ask the pros and beginners alike what they would have done differently if they were starting out today. Would you use ELR, all the flavors or vaping community for your first calculator and why? I use Juice Calculator, pretty sure it was written by Botboy. I do dabble with ELR and vaping community online calculator but haven't tried all the flavors as I heard you can only post 2 recipes, after that there is a charge.
I am just trying to figure out what would be the easiest for beginners to use. If it is too complicated they may get discouraged before they dive head first into the DIY rabbit hole.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
I would have started sooner on alltheflavors. ELR is a wasteland, full of recipes that shouldn't be public, and recipes that should've been retired with the eGos and clearomizers they were designed for. I would've gotten a scale even sooner than I did (those two weeks without one were brutal) and I would've taken better notes before ordering flavors... Sites not having the flavors I wanted, but having identically named flavors from other companies... Happened more than once. And I'd have labelled more consistently. And I would've ordered direct from Inawera sooner, and hopefully beaten the flavor ~~reformulation~~ruination.
Those are the big ones. I may have ordered a bottle of 250mg/ml nicotine salts back before the 66mg/ml cap became law here. (It was supposed to apply to juice only, but dumbass punk kids who should've been skimmed out of the gene pool deciding to buy and drip nic bsse kinda fucked that up, since the left needs idiots like that to show up and vote for them...)

What the actual fuck. I admire the mental gymnastics it must take to turn eliquid mixing advice into insulting half the population. Prick.
Well, half the population is less intelligent than average...
All great points, thank you.
I still have a few ml left of the original INW Milk Chocolate I am guarding with my life. I will never forgive them for the Apricot, messed up one of my favorite recipes.
Just trying to get people prepared, hope for the best but prepare for the worst as the saying goes.
Thanks again
Flavor ruination?????
I prefer the app vape tool. It's just nice to have something I don't have to be connected to the internet to use. I have an old phone I put it on which frees up my regular phone when I'm making juice.
I have heard about juice calculators for your phone but never tried it. Is it in the apple and google store? What's the name?
Thanks for the info 👍
