Hi everyone. I'm new to group and been advised to come on here for help. I've been vamping for 3 months now and spending a lot of money on trying to find a decent juice. I would like to try making my own can anyone advise me how to do it? Thank you in advance

from me! You need to know what flavours you like, what strength of nicotine and then start asking from there. The mixology section on here is a great place to start, loads of recipes etc olive1968

check out store-ablgr.mybigcommerce.com/ for buying small samples of all sorts of juice, way cheaper than buying 10ml only to find its not to your taste... oh and welcome to aaec too

Hi olive1968, and welcome to the forum. To elaborate a bit on the help given above. First of all, have a look through the Mixology section of the forum HERE and decide what type of flavour you would like in your juice. There are all sorts of recipes there, but don't panic about them just yet; rather get an idea of the sort of juice you would like to make - fruity, drink-type flavour, or desserts (custards are very popular if you think you might like that sort of thing). Check out a couple of the 'concentrate' vendors ( Chefs Vapour or Everything Liquid are good ones to start with) - these sell the flavour concentrates which we use to mix up a recipe, although there are some really good 'one-shot' concentrates around too - Pink Spot make some great ones. You will also need to buy Propylene Glycol (PG), Vegetable Glycerine (VG), and of course some Nicotine Base, which can be found at the same websites. On top of this you will need some spare bottles to mix into, a couple of syringes and a good e-juice calculator like the one at the top right of the forum pages - LINKDo some window-shopping, browse the recipes, get an idea of the cost to get you kitted out and then please come back and we'll help you with the next stage in the process. Remember that although the outlay might seem quite considerable compared with the cost of simply buying juice, the bases will last quite a long time, and once you have syringes etc. they will go on and on. We reckon on spending on average about £1/10ml to mix a juice, and of course if you are buying the bases and concentrates in bulk, this cost becomes even more attractive. Happy browsing, and ask questions - that's what we are here for!!

Hi olive1968, to the forum. The problem will be getting enough blood in the juice for your vamping addiction........ Ok, sorry, it's just a typo........... I'll get my coat..... Plenty of advice on mixing here though, as you have already been given. One word of caution. Don't expect every mix you do to taste fantastic. It's a slow journey, but ultimately rewarding.

olive1968 . I'm only a couple of months into mixing and have found the mixology board really helpful - have fun - believe me it's worth the effort!

Welcome to the forum............. I spent a few weeks trawling through the forum, before I joined. A lot of that time was spent reading the threads in the mixology section, you should find everything you need there............ if there's something specific, and you can't find the answer, just ask away, these guys are really helpful, and happy to assist.
