Im starting to realise how much of a PITA having all ingredients from different vendors will be. Maybe I'll see how much @ukflavours can cover Hi TomAs vendors, we can only go on studies that have already been made to date. I am a vaper myself and on a personal opinion, we all choose to vape at are own risk. There will always be risks with this until years down the line. We chose to smoke knowing the risks and tbh thats what we do as vapers. I personally believe it is 100 times better than smoking so it is my choice to vape. As vendors, the vaping is so popular, it really helps if they can be as honest as they can to help eliminate those who choose to avoid certain ingredients. We have done just this on our site I think you've misunderstood me. All I'm saying is I might get most of these ingredients from you to get started Thanks for all your help guys. Will get started on this soon (without the absinthe) and I'll keep you up to date

Right... I have decided to leave absinthe in for the first mix but have downed it to 2% and am using the anise at 6%. I have substituted mint for mint candy - I'm hoping it helps give it that 'sweety' type of taste, although I'm not sure that it will have much impact at 1%. All of these were available from Chefs Flavours Lew & Chefs Vapour Karl so will put the order in unless someone thinks that any one of these is particularly poopey...

Anything from chefs you think might be worth swapping with a diff brand?

I'm curious . . . why are you going to the bother, expense and faff Tom, when the concentrate is readily available and likely to continue to be? If you are worried about supply in the future, then it's possible to build up some stocks and freeze it. Not being facetious, just curious.

Will cost maybe £5-£10 to do a load of testing with the first batch of flavours having 16 punts at 10ml samples. The faff... it is alot of faff and I definitely would not be continuing this recipe for my ADV. I just want to have a RA replacement recipe up my sleeve should apocalypse day come and t-juice is a company that disappears due to that. You are right though. Maybe I will put this on the back burner and hope the day doesn't come. The thought of no RA has just made me a little loopy I suppose

So that's a shed load of faffing, too much for me anyways.

So that's a shed load of faffing, too much for me anyways. A month of faffing with 150ml worth of tweaking a mix... £10 A lifetime of knowing you can make an ADV you can stomach... PRICELESS (In all seriousness I'm glad you said this.) The main reason I started this mission is because I have read that TJ concentrates are only available to buy at 40ml or less, but have since found that Nige will let you buy more if directly from him. The only problem stashing a load of concentrate away for a rainy day is how much is enough?? I'll see how big a bottle Nige will let me buy xD

I think if the worst happens, and TJuice happens to be one of the unfortunate casualties, there would be nothing stopping them sharing their recipes... I wouldn't worry unduly
