Anybody got a good brand concentrate apple and peach I should buy in the UK ?

Tried a crystal bar disposable apple/peach and it was really nice.... would love to make a batch of liquid similar in flavour.

Thanks for any help

Beginner advice needed

My online vapeshop offers easy diy packages. It includes 80ml 50pg/50vg base 12nic shots 20mg/ml 30ml flavour concentrate

It should give me 230ml of 12mg strenght.

As a beginner, question is simple. Will this work? Its far away from real diy what I see on this sub, but still I have to begin somwhere. Thanks

What is the flavor concentrate?

And no, you don't have to start with the shop. It's much better if you start off the right way with the right stuff at the right price

I'm having a little bit of trouble finding my "perfect bottle" for the juice I vape daily and I was hoping maybe someone had a good recommendation.

Here's what I'm looking for:

  • Roughly 60 ml / 2 oz - Up to 100 ml would be okay. 30 ml is too small.
  • Soft sides - I like LDPE normally
  • Wide mouth - I hate using those little mini funnels
  • Fine tip - My tanks have small fill holes so larger tips won't fit
  • Can be purchased in small quantities - I really only need a couple so I'd prefer not to buy 50+ at a time.

I haven't been able to find anything that meets all these criteria. The hardest combination seems to be wide mouth + LDPE + fine tip.

The chubby gorilla 60 ml ldpe bottle is the closest thing I've found but I'd like a wider mouth and for the tip to not fan out.

I'm in the US.

Have you had the bottles from BCF?

Sup y’all, I’m brand new to DIY mixing, haven’t even received my first order of supplies yet, I’m getting into it primarily because I can no longer get the brand I like shipped to me anymore, and it’s not stocked anywhere around me (but mixing is something I’ve had significant interest in for a while now). Super excited to learn and get all nerdy about yet another hobby, as I’m already very deep down many other similar rabbit holes.

With that being the case, my question is this: when it comes to the base ingredients (not the flavorings), is there any noticeable difference in quality across brands/sources when it comes to PG/VG/nic? For a comparison, I’m very nerdy about coffee, and the water you use makes a noticeable difference in the end result, despite being something that most people wouldn’t even stop to consider. So is there a comparable dynamic with mixing juice, or is all PG/VG/nic more or less the same product?

If you are getting USP VG and PG from a reliable source, no. It should be even keel. Don't buy from random brands/sources though.

As for nicotine base, nowadays we don't really have many sources to choose from in the US. We have about three actually.

I started off with 500 ml each of PG and VG, and 120 ML of 250mg salt nic from central vapors
