Tobacco ordered, found page for instuctions, I've got a 1 pint pyrex jug is that big enough or should I get a bigger one. Dave Thats what I use Dave..... and use a plastic spoon, wood can carry over cooking flavours from that curry you made etc and metal can taint the juice.

I have noticed that several members have a very sweet tooth.... So while I was thinking about a recipe for Johnboy, I came up with this.... It needs to be vaped at a lower heat (not an LR atty at 15 watts) to get the most from the flavour, I am using about 8 watts and it is sweet and nice. The higher you get, the more burnt taste. Enjoy..... Sweet Chocaholics.

Update:- loving my new flavours, the tob leaf on it's own or with walnut or vanilla or with both walnut and vanilla, the other flavors from CCW are good to, especially the peppermint and apple. Where is Karma? ???? Whathave you ordered Karma?

If you buy some licorice you can make your own black cat, get some walnut, vanilla, maybe toffee/caramel and try mixing them. First just do leaf extract and licorice, if its not deep enough try a bit with walnut and a bit with vanilla and a bit with both, like froggy says, about 2ml ata time. I mixed 50/50 own tob leaf and apple and that will replace my applewood, at a fraction of the price.

Referencing a recipe I posted earlier today for Mars Bar Whooppss…. I mean the “Work, Rest & Play” Bar recipe, Someone asked me what do I mean by “vape this juice at about 8 Watts” ? Well, depending on the Voltage being output by your device / battery, and the ohms of your coil, it equates to the amount of watts of heat generated by the coil. I am running a 2.0 ohm coil in that particular DID and want to heat the juice at about 8 Watts, so If I was using a Variable Voltage device I would set it to about 4 volts. If I didn’t have a variable voltage device, and just used a straight 3.7 Volt battery and non-adjustable mod, then I would need to use an atty or cartomiser etc, rated at about 1.7 ohms to give me the same 8 Watts. There is a very easy and good online calculator available here www.onlineconversion.com/ohms_law.htm . It is very easy to use, you just put in two known values and it calculates the rest, very handy knowledge to have. All juices vary in their sweet spot, (where it tastes best to a particular person) having this knowledge helps you make sure you vape and it tastes as it was meant to. I hear lots of times people say, that juice had no flavour or tasted burnt.... Often it is because they are vaping it at the wrong heat (Watts).

I haven't done any mixing before but Frogsters brilliant thread has tempted me ! I now have on order the bits and bobs and several flavours - CCW's cherry, liquorice, caramel, lavender, honey, sticky toffee and PA's chocolate and dulce de leche. Not that I've got a sweet tooth or anything ! Thanks froggy.

You are welcome Julie, from the list of stuff you have posted there, you will soon be making up some nice juices I am sure.... And remember, everyones taste perception is different, so don't be afraid of tweaking and experimenting... If you need any advice / help, there are lots of knowledgable people here. Enjoy! Edit: (apart from Lavender, I love the smell, but the taste is very different, I have not tried Cupcakes one, but have others, and it is not for me..... but as I said everyones taste is different).

Hey Frogster, Did your home made tobacco, its just steeping, cant wait, smells divine!! oh btw, if you guys haven't already, have a look at 'Wild nuts' by F'Art, lovely nut mix for your mixes, coffee, chocolate, toffee, vanilla etc, kinda strong though!
