Question for the mixing guys and dolls please

[piper1]

Question for the guys and dolls who regularly mix their own.

When you are about to test the liquids that you have made do you use a clean tank every time or is there a quicker alternative way of testing your recipe

thanks piper

drip it direct to an atomizer 3/4 drips and vape away (and choke if its a baddun')
just blow through after and replenish with another flavour
leave any menthols till last as it stays in there

I bought one of these primarily for testing new flavours - www.vapingthings.com/-PHOENIX_SS_REBUILDABLE_ATOMISER_WITH_EXTRAS_FROM__1599/p1311952_7880563.aspx

Works great, not too expensive plus its a repairable one so should last for ages

I just use ordinary 510 atomizers. Cheaper. I have several around from before. I tend to use one per flavour, then after I've finished testing, rinse them in hot water a couple of times and put them back on the grill over the radiator.

vh dripper with a ss wick works for me

Same as the gents for me Piper, an atomiser every time . . . be that a rebuildable or otherwise.

I used to use tanks every time, but Perps took me in hand and gently took my dripping virginity a while back..... can't do it enough now.... Love it!

Sssssh, that was our special secret Frog. That's the last remnant of my reputation gone then.

Opppppssss.... sorry Perps :-[

Thats the nice think about this forum, Friendly, helpful, knowledgable people (well in the main), always willing to help rather than "Big it up" or put you down or take the P***, or try and throw spanners in the works.....

Long may it continue

Hi Piper, Although I have tried them, I cannot get on with dripping and so I have gone for Buds for my testing.
www.safercigs.co.uk/BUD_Tank_Atomizer_22ohm_15ml_510_-_2_pack/p705283_4069380.aspx

I put a little in the tank, test it then suck out the remainder with a syringe. Then refill it, using the syringe, about halfway with water, give it a good shake, then suck that out and I am ready to go with the next test juice.

I have 6 Buds on the go and I keep one for coffee type juices, one for mint/menthol types, one for fruit types and the rest for my tobacco ones.

It only takes seconds to wash them out and for some juices, especially when they get near to being ready, I like to vape for several hours before deciding if the are just the way I want them and the Buds taking 1ml, allow me to do this before putting them into a decent clearo or viva.

Basically my Buds are only used for testing, but at £4.50 for 2, they are a decent price.
By the by, I use a set of reversible tweezers to handle the rubber nipples on these and they make the job a doddle.
