Trying again

[borovape]

Right, I'm going to try this again. I haven't done any DIY for a couple of years and my experience was frustrating and largely fruitless.

I'm thinking premixed base just to cut down on the chew. Good or bad idea in your experience?

Single shot flavour (or at least no ludicrous complex recipes, yet) for the same reason.

Looking for your assistance in regard to the flavours you've found working well in a simple mix.

I thought CAP chocolate fudge brownie was ok last time round, I would of liked the CAP NY cheesecake if it hadn't been so potent and a simple CAP vanilla custard V1 mix was passable.

Flavour profile is sweeeeeet. [emoji2]

I have developed some patience in the last couple of years, so long steep times are not a problem.

Hit me up with some thoughts please Apes.

Why not start off with pre-mixed? There are some nice blended concentrates about. I am currently hooked on Boardwalk by DIY or Die from Chefs Vapour - try this:
https://www.chefsflavours.co.uk/diy-or-die/4595-boardwalk.html

£7.50 for 30ml, mix at 20% so that's enough for 150ml of juice.

Are you mixing by volume or weight? Mixing by weight makes it very easy to do complex recipes as there is much less faff with syringes etc.

Have a look at the other blended concentrates on there. Lots on JustVape247 as well in terms of blended ones. Just check the descriptions, read some reviews and then try some you like the sound of in small volume.

Ive been mixing since feb or march.I usually mix the cutwood unicorn milk clone.its great.perhaps complex having seven flavours but its not really.just use a calculator tool to get the volume you want to mix and write everything down,then tick it off as you put it in.Its only opening seven bottles instead of one or 2.The complex ones are a bit off putting if you need 7 flavours and you have none in your stach.then it becomes a big outlay on a gamble wheter or not you are going to like it.
T juice red astaire one shot is awesome as are dripworx new range of concentrates.
One shot is just as satisfying as mixing your own concoction.Others to try are vamp vape concentrates.have been reading alot about these lately and should know tomorrow how these are,steep time dependant.
Just a note that the dripworx range truly are shake and vape.I mixed them yesterday,literally stuck them in hot water for 20-30 seconds so the viscosity of the vg allowed everything to mix well.shaked it and vaped it.delicious.

Thank man, I'll check it out.

I was doing volume mixing, which may explain why I thought it was such a pain in the arse!

I've been using the premixed concentrate from thee-cigshop the've quite a range atm and the prices are pretty good

 

[borovape]

Wow, checking out these premixed options and things have changed loads!

Back then I can only really remember TJuice doing this and sadly I'm no fan.

Great stuff guys. This is making me feel a little more positive about having another bash [emoji4]

Definitely try mixing by weight, so much easier! Grab a glass beaker or three, a glass stirring rod (option but I like them ) and some of these https://www.amazon.co.uk/iDaodan-0-...92875&sr=8-3&keywords=electronic+scales+0.01g - just seen some that do up to 3KG on there now actually https://www.amazon.co.uk/iDaodan-0-...92875&sr=8-3&keywords=electronic+scales+0.01g - bear in mind you would need a 3L container to mix!

Have a set of those scales, some pre-mixed concentrates and some beakers to put in the raffle shortly. Just waiting on the concentrates to turn up. We keep threatening to do more FAQs and guides as well do will definitely do one on mixing.

I don't do FB that much mate! Is it an open group? If you could link me up that would be wicked!

Where's the best place for beakers... And rods? [emoji2]
