In the cupboard

[sammy13]

I have a question which may sound daft but if I don't ask it I will never know .

I know a lot of you do your own mixing so you probably know the answer.

Is there anything I may have in my kitchen cupboard, ( or the supermarket shelf ) that I could add to a bottle of liquid to change the taste.

I have vg, which I believe dilutes rather than changes. Are there any other liquids you can add?

I'm not meaning anything to do with mixing from scratch, just wanting to add something to a bottle of juice I have to change the flavour.

My juices are missing in action and I no longer like the ones I have.

Menthol crystals from your local chemist can boost/change your flavours, but go easy, when people say a SMALL crystal in a bottle, they mean miniscule

What is it you're trying to achieve? Generally, you need water-based liquids, never oil-based as this screws up the coil/atty. If you want to use menthol crystals, you'll need some PG as they don't dissolve very well in VG. @ashmal has had some interesting results steeping herbs in vodka, you could have a go at that

Just a thought - you won't have it in the cupboard, but investing in a bottle of Dulce de Leche flavouring or Vape Wizard might be what you're after - these 'condiments' can often fix a so-so juice, and I'd've thought it's a little safer/easier than trawling the cupboards!

I'm steeping half a scotch bonnet chili in some PG, but I'm too scared to try it.

Can I watch when you do?

The chilli sounds interesting.
Thinking of menthol crystals would a peppermint cordial work? Or any cordial for that matter?
Squash? Coffee? Alcohol?
Not sure I fancy cider flavour but could borrow a drop of brandy from a neighbour.

Cordials are normally loaded with sugar, so I wouldn't recommend it

Brandy might be ok, but not very much, and personally I wouldn't

Peppermint/vanilla food flavouring can be ok, but tell us the ingredients list, before you try it

That brand of peppermint flavouring is used by a few people, and should be fine

[sammy13]

Excellent, I shall go find some.

I know this is not what you asked for but try experimenting by mixing different eliquids together... you will be surprised at some of the results.

I have tried it and I was impressed, in fact it has got me through the last 30 hours or so.
I had a few drops of kiwi mix, and energy bull left and I mixed them with the tobacco flavour it changed it into a flavour I quite liked.
Now I am worried about the weekend though. I have drained everything out of the non tobacco bottles, and once my clearo is empty I only have tobacco I do not like.

My big mistake was I only bought tobacco flavours, 10ml and 30ml bottles.
I've lost 40ml by spillages and leakages.
I threw a 10ml bottle away cos it ripped my throat out.
Sue kindly gave me the kiwi, and energy I liked those.
I've gone back to the tobacco and its rank.
I placed an order for 3 different flavours with a company I have had good service from, but it has still not been sent out.
They have moved or something so there is a delay only I didn't know.
I have now just ordered from joosejuice so hopefully something will get here soon.
I just have to get through the weekend

Aw no, Sammy, that sucks Definitely try the peppermint then!
