Sweetener Differences?

[twoeyedbob]

i'm really interested in using saline...
sounds like it helps lift accent flavours in custards.
gotta work out where to buy it or make it first.

just about to run out of pre-made myself..had to throw my last evods worth of genuine mothers milk out this morning as i'd kept it so long it went funky.
And only got 1ml accies left... :-(

That's the theory ... well, I stopped buying pre-made juice a couple of weeks ago which really forces the issue. Vape what you make or suffer!

Actually I've had some success. I've got 2-3 months of juice done, am vaping merrily on the first batches and have more concentrate on the way. The cost savings are outstanding but the potential to waste money on speculative concentrate is clearly there. Need to stay focused.

The fun is going to be working out exactly what each of the additives - ethyl maltol, sweetener, Dirty Neutral Base and Vape Wizard - actually does to the juices. Do they rescue an average juice, do they turn a good juice into something better ...? Have to be patient with steeping and the trials.

Concentrate swaps might be a good idea ... the chance to move on 8 or 9 ml of concentrate that doesn't work for one but might work for another. I bet every home brewer has bottles lying around that they won't use again but someone else might want to try.

Brave move with the switch straight to homemade. I still have some pre made thank feck as all bar the water melon needs steeping or some serious jiggorypokery to become palatable. They all smell great apart from the sherbet lemon which smells like... Well I don't even know what but maybe akin to some chemical warfare. Concentrate swaps is a good idea and well worth a suggestion to the admin.

Not good Bob!!! Shame about the mothers milk. That is on my to try list as supposed to be rather tasty.

Not sure if you are interested but found this with regards to saline solution and vaping. There are many conflicting reports as ever and hope the link works as I am crap with this sort of thing:

As do I, about 8 days' worth ... I said I had stopped buying it 2 weeks ago, so it wasn't so brave to have a little safety net.

The main safety net though is starting out with concentrates of flavours that I know I like ... nothing complicated in the first few batches. Nothing too experimental, walk before run, eh?

Yes, watch this space then.

Oh, and I found this today, have you seen it before? Typical German efficiency ... as with all raw data, you make of it what you will. fortunately my wife speaks German fluently.

I can't speak a word of anything other than English... And to be fair struggle with that most of the time
But from what I can make out it's independent pink spot concentrate percentages from various mixers. They mostly all seem in the same sort of ballpark so should be a good guide overall. Is there others I wonder with regards to different brands?
Just need some pink spot concentrate....

click on the supplier names at the top shedload up there, including lots of German ones, natch!

I've just got Swagger despite recoiling at the impossibly overhyped product description ... it would have to go some to knock King Arthur's Pipe off the top of my tobacco tree ... Cubano is improving on me.

Nice one. Just realised as looking on my phone and scrolled straight to the percentage table. This is quality!!!
Not heard of Swagger or Cubano so will have to look that up, are they tobacco based? But sounds like this sherbet lemon so far!!!

Yep! Swagger's by Pink Spot and this Cubano is by PA which I bought at vapersemporium.

Are they full on tobacco? Quite like the sound of a mana bush type of mix but have not had a tobacco flavour since the first couple of weeks vaping.
