A moment of your time please,
I've had my first attempts at DIY steeping for about 8 days & couldn't wait any longer so tried them today, I mixed tham all at 3mg nic, 70/30 vg/pg (using E-liquid recipies.com calculator)
Each one was shaken & left with cap off for 20 mins every day as suggested on 'new amsterdam vapes' guide to mixing & each was a variation on his strawberry cream recipie. I used digital scales for measuring by weight & made up them up in 30ml batches.
When I vape them there's a slight harshness in all of them that tends to come & go as if the nicotine isn't distributed evenly.
The flavour is nice but quite vague compared to how great they smell so next batch I intend to increase the flavourings to overall 15%
1st recipie as follows
Nic (darkstar 7.2% PG) 1.3g 4.17%
PG 4.93g 15.83%
VG 26.49g 70%
Bavarian cream (TFA) 0.9g 3%
Graham Cracker (TFA) 0.63g 2%
Strawberry ripe (TFA) 1.56g 5%
total 35.81g 100%
Could the harshness be that I didn't mix/shake it well enough when I first made it maybe ??
Cheers,
Matt.
