Tynesider,i was just trying to keep it as simple as possible for those new to mixing.Im not going into full details about mixing because its trial and error.You will never know until you have a go sort of thing mixing is.You can do all this f*cking about with calculations and still end up with a crap mix.I keep it simple and get good results every time.I write down what i have used and when i hit on a good mix i have the info to make it again. Mr l,im excited about these flavourings mate i will let you know what they are like when i get back off my hols.Damn it,all ordered but im away for a week :(Oh well,from what ive heard they are much better than the farts which i have been using.Will be nice to do a few mixes when i return Edit to add,keep it simple,have fun doing it and dont take it to seriously. Health issues ??? Only if you buy high strength nic and dont know how to cut it properly,or if you use crap flavourings from Asda.

Cheers

Cheers Well to start with you can get some "Boots Glycerine B.P" 200ml for a couple of quid , this is used to "cut" the nicotine juice with What strength juice do you plan to mix ? What juice ratio do you like ? What flavours do you like ?

Ok well thats a start I now know I can get it from boots, which part of the store will it be in? I've only been vaping about a month so I'm still experimenting with strengths/ratio/flavours and thats the reason why I wanted to mix my own. Up until now I like the 60/40 mix about 18-24mg ( medium ) strength and the best flavours I've tried are Gold&Silver,Hazelnut,Marlborough,Menthol

Ok, so there are a few links here for anyone thinking of having a go mixing their own juices. Calculator: www.ecigexpress.com/ejuice-calculator.phpAnd a few recipes: www.e-smokers-forum.com/diy-e-liquid-recipes/But I have to say, I use no science or exact measuring in my mixing whatsoever, no two batches I make are the exact same, which for me is part of the fun. I'll start with a 30ml bottle, which I'll half fill with a 36mg PG base, then top that up with approx 10ml of unflavoured PG, which I buy from this Ebay seller. cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330337578846&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:ITThen I put a couple of ml's of VG for a bit of vapour in . . . then top the bottle up to the top almost with flavouring, shake then leave overnight to steep a little. Haven't had any unvapeable disasters yet and it's easy enough to tweak the mix a little by transfering some from the 30ml bottle into a smaller bottle to give room for some additional flavouring etc . . . . honestly, mixing doesn't have to be complicated. I live just outside of Brizol Roachie, have driven through Brislington, but I don't the area as such . . . . one day I will, it's early days yet, I've only lived here 30years. PS. Edit to say the plain VG is with the cough medicines in Boots Tyne.

Bit of a funny one this juice thang.
I don't, and never have, really like the taste of tobacco. It's something i've always had to endure just to get my hits/fix of nicotine.
Now i can take my nicotine throgh e cigging/vaping it's cool that i can take it with different flavours.
Trouble is...i'm not sure what taste i want in my mouth. One of my favourite tastes is duck in plum sauce. But i'm not sure i would want my mouth to taste of it very often let alone all day.
I suppose it's getting in and trying some till i find one i like.

Perp = i've ordered 5x5ml samples Pick n' mix. I can't rermember what flavours i went for.
Hopefully then one of them is the caramel.
I am rather partial to the taste of tesco's peanut puffs. I wonder if someone could recreate that taste ?

I'm very partial to Walkers Cheese & Onion crisps but I wouldn't want to vape them Del, James (Paradise vapes) does some good nutty flavours

Thanks Chrissie - i'll try the pick n mix flavours i've got coming then try James' .
BTW i found a minature of smirnoff vodka. Some one on here said that a few drops will be ok to vape. Well i tried to only drop a few drops in my cartridge and ended up filling it right up with only the slightest tip up of the minature. It cut down my TH for the first few chuggs now it's fine again. Out of interest has anyone ever been done for vape driving ? I mean could you get pished vaping vodka ?

You're supposed to add a few drops of voddie to yer ejuice Del, to increase the throat hit and thin a VG heavy mix.

If your wanting to try mixing for yourself 2 great pieces of software are the ejuice app for iphone/itouch users and JuiceMeUp by breakthru software.
