DIYers do you still buy readymade juice?

...and with our special secret ingredient you will discover.....ah shit....koolada.

In my view the extra money you are spending on buying juice from a vendor is 99% the cost of whoever you buy from's blood sweat tears and gallons of wasted juice to perfect a juice through nothing more than trial and error with, as time goes by, intuition. This of course applies only to quality vendors who do it because they love making juice, not to repackage other stuff and make a quick buck

I for one have no magic ingredient, I just vape a lot of mediocre juice until my tester buddies say wow, this is spot on, I want more

The proof is in the pudding, folks only re purchase if they are happy

I didnt try to offence someone with my post.I know making juice is not easy and not everyone can do that.What i tryed to say in my post above was some satiric regarding some juices descriptions.
Personally i cannot vape more than 4 ml from the same juce so imagine how many flavors were in my tank.So for me adv wasnt invented yet.
My apologies again for my bad english and if i offenced someone.

Talent, effort and time am I wrong?

I think the hocus pocus is steeping.Continuing discussion,i belive there is a big diference between a homemade and a premade eliquid,is this hocus pocus(steeping) and some aditives.I make my own eliquid,i got on my desk over 50 flavors and any mix i try is not comparing with a good premade liquid.Again steeping(my fault-im not so patient)

I think its your concept of "try" I literally go through 100's of iterations of each component then I do the same with each combination, it takes ages, takes up loads of space and I end up binning ( or usually if not too far off, vaping cos I'm tight ) the rejects.
Its also about how they are after a good few months too

I would also assume you have far less flavours, and versions of said flavours to pick from, you will be making combinations of what you have, we will be buying many iterations of the possible ingredients we may or may not want, and then lock ourselves in a room for hours / days / weeks etc till its what we want

Try this, get a flavour you want to perfect and keep slogging at it, but make, at the bare minimum 3 variations, leave for a few weeks and try each one on different fresh setups to make an informed decision

Unless you are incredibly lucky, this will take ages , but as you start collecting variations you will see the improvement

Then repeat scientifically with more variations, slowly whittling it down

Thanks for advice,ill try if ill have time.Unfortunately as i wrote before im not so patient regarding eliquids.Mixing juices is an art,grafitti is art,tatoos the same.Must be an talent maybe.

I'll occasionally buy a pre made juice. Usually it's all down to the packaging. I'm a sucker for marketing.
Reality is, I really like most of the stuff I make myself more.
Although I may have tipped a couple of litres down the sink over the last year!!

I buy and diy... and have much more respect for the more patient juice vendors who have spent far more time perfecting their juices than me in just experimenting to find something vapable... if you are any good at cooking you will find flavours and combinations that go together ok... but like certain chefs juice producers go from
.. meh i could do better myself for less cash, to omg what happened there i want to marry this food/juice
