I want to stay vaping mtl tanks but want max flavor too. I just bought some kayfuns, a couple drwavs, a hastur mini and a artemis. Will these tanks give me the flavor close to a dtl tank? I have yet to start building coils on any of these just haven't got around to it yet. Can someone suggest a good kanthal build or ss build on any of these tanks for best flavor? I'm willing to go higher watts if it means better flavor. Been mixing my juice at 60vg/40pg. With higher watts I'm guessing I will have to go higher vg so it's less harsh? Currently vaping on a vapefly nicolas tried both the .6 and the 1.8 coils and perfer the 1.8. I do find on a couple mixes I definitely taste more flavor on the .6. I'm vaping mostly tobacco recipes. Sorry these questions are more hardware related but do pertain to diy if I have to up the percentages in my recipes. I'm vaping freebase at 6mg with the .6 i had to drop down to 3mg and even that seemed harsh. Don't want to switch to salts because I want throat hit.

You could jump on Discord and go to the hardware channel and see if you can get some help there. Just be prepared to get hit with a lot of information very quickly. I believe there’s a link to the Discord on the side bar, big blue button. 🖤

I am thinking about creating my own e-liquids but i don't know any brands for nbases. I live in Turkey so i don't have access to many.

which of these brands can be trusted ?

Sigma VG - Ineos PG -NicSelect - Wilmar VG - Basf PG - Grande Nbase - GlyCamed VG

thanks for any input. I understand that Merck is a good brand but it doesn't have VG. So im wondering which of these VG brands are safe to buy , use and also won't give me trouble in the taste department.

How can I add a mentholy freshness to my e liquids with fruit bases? Do i just buy a menthol aroma or is there another way ?

Just buy a menthol flavor or other coolant such as WS-23 or Koolada for Flavour Art Polar Blast.

When mixing hit salts is 5mg on the ELR calculator the same as say a juul pod? Mixing for a friend who uses juul.

50mg is probably what you’re shooting for. For ”desired strength” put 50, then below put in the “nicotine strength” of your nic & the percentage of PG/VG it is

I just ordered a few flavors direct from OOO. I'm not happy with the customer service I received when I contacted them to check on my order because it was late but OMG. I ordered Chocolate Chip Cookie and even though I haven't opened the bottle it smells abso-freaking-lutely amazing!

​

I want to make a single flavor juice out of it, but am not sure how much to use to do this. Does anybody out there have any experience with their flavors? Should I start at 6% and work my way up?

Don't get your hopes up too much, most chocolates smell pretty good and vape horribly. That flavor has been around for quite awhile, so I'd imagine it would have caught on if it were an exception.

Well, I mixed up a single flavor batch and cranked up the percentage to 7%. It's good but not as good as a complex recipe. It tastes a lot like nestle toll house cookies but with the butter, content crank down a little, and the yummy rest of the cookie cranked up a bit.

Even with using more the flavor is not as strong as I thought it would be but does take care of that chocolate chip cookie itch I was suffering from nicely enough so maybe it's a nice chocolate chip cookie base?

This is not a flavor review because I don't think I'm experienced enough to do those yet but just my personal impressions and I hope they help someone else out there :)

[EDIT] This is what I'm getting after a 3 day steep.

Why are my mixes so harsh to vape? Does steeping help with that?

Watermelons are hard to work with, I've found. Can you give us your recipe?

New mixer. Didn't want to make a post to ask but has anyone come across a good clone recipe for Bird E Juice Sesame Balls? I still have a few 60ml bottles of it left but I'll eventually need to make my own or attempt to.
