disappointed with vapemunki Ejuice

[clairea]

So i purchased a few of vapemunki ejuice after seeing some rave reviews about them, 
i bought razzle dazzle
prom night
vanilla sky
Mr blue sky
and tropical thunder

said to let the steep for a week which i have done caps off in bathroom cabinet away from kitty cats, anyway i've now tried 3 of them and have to say there is not much flavour to them,

razzle dazzle which i have going at the mo is very weak fruity one,

prom night reminded me slightly of weak palma violets, 

and mr blue sky was just nothing

going to let the steep another week before trying them again and hope the flavour improves but to me they need to up their flavourings  a lot more, if they don't improve won't be buying them again, I like a strong flavour, 

sorry vapemunki i had such high hopes,

Thats a shame. Is it possible that with vaping now in the mainstream, that demand is outstripping supply I wonder? Almost another reason to make your own, I'm only now getting into the habit of making homebrews weeks in advance (plus making them go brrrrrr brrrrr in an ultrasonic oojimiflip machine) so the um... 27 different mixes I have ready or in the making are vapeable at their peak.

do you make your own coils if you do you need some rayon it makes bland liquid tasty

[clairea]

Think i will have to make my own, waiting for hand to mend though as i don't want nicotine concentrate everywhere, i make my own soap with caustic soda so can't be as dangerous as that to make, and lip balms etc
then i can get the high enough flavour to suit me, wonders if lip balm flavours can be used in ejuice, hmmmmm, but i think they are diluted in oil to start with i'll have to have a look into it I have lots of lip balm flavours, have the time on my hands or hand at the moment so to speak,
also wonder if you can add essential oils as flavours ie peppermint have a lovely peppermint oil i use in chocolate making,
I make a lot of things with my hands, i'm crafty, i flit from one hobby to another when i get bored of one i switch for a few months,

davetherayon tell clairea about the benefits of your rayon the wonder wick dosent she need it in her coils

[clairea]

I don't yet ronaldo bit hard with only one good hand but might do once my ruptured tendon has been fixed, but i do rewick the ones i do have, naturevape and my protank although i think i screwed up my last protank one by only putting in two wicks instead of 3 need to redo it, but use cotton wool at mo, davetherayon is sending me some rayon,

re my protank had a spare coil and lots on they way, so i was lucky i had a spare coil the silicon wick inside the one i decided to rewick wrongly, had fallen apart, wasn't impressed with that not seen that happen before, but don't forget i'm still a newbie to all this, i relied on my ego for weeks until i came on here.

Didn't you order your juice the day after me? Mine are still steeping and I won't even bother trying them for at least another week.

In comparison I have some JJ cheese cake which is about 7-10 days older than my vapemunki juices and I can tell just by looking that they're not ready to vape yet.

Also vapemunki do offer and extra flavour shot but I'm loath to pay and extra 75p on top of an already expensive juice

brilliant you wont look back with rayon it really is wonder wick

[Bluefish]

I don't know the juices but some need minutes steeping, some need months?

[clairea]

i don't know, it was last week i think i got them last Friday,  they just said they were ready to go now but best to steep for a week so I left them a week, others i've had say 7-14 days i will give them another go in another week or so, but i'm loathe to pay 75p extra as well for extra shot as well, they may well improve with age but i can't see them getting much stronger but leaving the other two for a few weeks just to see as i really don't want to be disappointed in them,

i'm not myself at mo days of week all get muddled into one at mo,

ordered a load of samples yesterday from smokeyrainbow so hopefully can test a few more out, can't wait for vapefest to try lots of them,

I just checked and did get them last friday,

[ronaldo]

there will be plenty to taste at vapefest I think everyone will take a lot of juice with them I am going to look in my cupboards to see if I can find anything I don't want and take it with me we all have different tastes and what one person dosent like is someone else's all day vape for example I love pineapple and most people find it

[clairea]

i love pineapple my fav drink used to be a pineapple milkshake the liquid stuff crusha i think it was, can't get it anymore, now that would be my ultimate ejuice

[Deleted]

You mentioned you steeped them for a week with the caps off, which bottle cap are you referring to?

Please be careful what flavourings you use clairea oil is not good for vaping. We mostly use concentrated food flavouring in pg or vg. Some other additives are bad to vape also. If in doubt about oil in a flavouring try a few drops in water if it has an oil slick best not to use.
