Got to stop buying juice!

[dickyg]

That does sound a sensible way round the issue!

you could do this

5 10ml bottles of 24mg DV Cherry Pie £5 (it is 85PG/15VG)
1 10ml bottle of Black Cherry TPA flavouring also from ECW £1.99
1 200ml bottle of Glycerin from Boots £1.20

pour all 5 bottles of cherry pie into a 100ml dropper bottle and add 15ml of glycerin

You'll have 65 ml of 18mg Cherry Pie that might be a little bit weak flavour wise but probably fine, add the black cherry flavouring to taste

65ml of nice cherry e-liquid for £6.99 isn't too shabby (not counting the boots glycerin cos you'll have loads of that left for the future)

This sounds like a simple way to boost flavour in any juice? Is it really that simple?

Just I find all my Vaping a fraction less flavoursome than I'd really like?

Its no good.

I already have close to 300mls of juice and just bought another 150mls!!

At the rate I vape I will have enough juice to last me 6 months!!

Tell me about it. I got my first PV on Friday - now its Thursday!

Ive got 220ml juice sat right in front of me.

170ml juice on its way.
200ml 75nic VG on its way.

No flavours or mixing kit yet, but good to be prepared!!
& I've got a nice selection of flavours.

Must stop looking at 'Bargain Thread'

I have gone the other way and bought enough Nic Base, PG and VG to last me the next 6 years (@24mg).

Now I am collecting Flavours and will blend these only as I need them.

I do find that my tastes change over time and some that I raved about 4 months ago, I can't stand now, and some shop bought ones the makers have changed their formulas and are hideous now.

One thing I have found is that how my ejuices taste, has a lot to do with what I have eaten or drank just before I vape and so, in the evenings when I am more likely to be aware of flavours, I have switched to sipping Sparkling Water.
This is very refreshing, but imparts no taste and so I get the true flavours of the ejuice.

Fred I now have 700mls and ordered another 120mls this morning. All different flavours and strengths as I plain to get my nic level as low as possible by Christmas.

Lobeydosser how long a shelf life does Nic base have as juices are meant to be around 2 years although onyl a couple I have bought have a sell by date on them?

My excuse is the if they bring in the ban on E liquids over 6mg I will be prepared.

Also i must like Fred stop looking at the shopping thread.

sure is the only problem is you'll be diluting the nic level a bit at the same time but as you're only adding a few extra drops it's not a problem.

say you have 10ml (24mg) of Apple e-liquid and you add a whole extra 1ml of Apple flavouring

24mg x 10ml = 240mg total nic
240mg / 11ml (includes 1ml extra flavouring) = 21.8mg nic per ml

so even if you add 1ml extra flavouring to 10ml of e-liquid, you're only reducing the nic content by about 2mg per mil

Hi Zeldamum, The life of Nic Base is indefinite as I store it in the Freezer.

[Adam78]

and how many ml of nic base is enough to last you 6 years?

[zeldamum]

Oh good idea. Can you store ready mixed ones in the freezer?

I hope for your sake not! Or you'll be off on another buying spree

Don't see why not!

Remember to leave room for food though

[zeldamum]

Means I can carry on looking for special offers.

The children can live on noodles for a while. Juice is much more important, other is a threat of a ban after all.
