Evening , I need some advice please. I `ve seen here that some of you make your own juice. How? what will I need, how do I do it and where is the best place to buy it please. Been vaping for a year now and still unsure about so many things you all talk about. I received my order from Ok Smokey,atties ,batteries and carts and George sent me a tin [like a caddie] as well. Nice suprise. Sue

Hi Sue I don't think that many, if any, of us make our own juice ??? I for one mix juices together or add flavourings to ready-made juices. I expect that I've missed a whole kitchen-industry in our midst, let's see what happens scylla

I had a go and did not like the results of my handy work one bit. I bought high nic liquid cut it with VG and PG then added flavours. Result alternated between over watered down cordial and raw cake mix Blaaaa Yuck. Liquid blended with a high % VG gave me an upset stomach and cramps - apparently a very small % of peope have this reaction to VG Kate I know mixes her own and has done for a very long time. Vapers forum has some threads on DIY mixing here.... ukvapers.com/forumdisplay.php?s=a9be2f605dda641c5adc43177e8b8a71&f=6

Not tried mixing my own either - apart from cutting higher strengths with glycerine. Sue, if you want even more info than from Keef's link, ECF have a whole sub Forum on DIY e-lquid (plus at the top of the page, there is a sub-sub forum with recipes ) : - www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/

Thanks Scylla,Keef and Chrissie. I think I must have got the wrong end of the stick.I thought some of you did make your own. If you Keef, are not happy with your results,I don`t think I stand much chance. I looked at the flavourings on TW and thought adding it to something or other would make the juice. I`m a complete numpty on some things.I think this is one of them.I think I`ll stick to just buying it.Going to buy a couple of Lisa`s juices to try. Sue

Lisa's juices are a very good price. I haven't found a flavourful one yet (but my tastebuds have been murdered with Laphroaig malt whisky, Plymouth gin [none of your common brands for me, and besides, I used to get big discounts ) and fags ) but you can always add FlavorArt or Decadent Vapours flavours for an adventure scylla

Hi Scylla,decadent flavours is what I have been looking at [TW]So do I add so many drops of that to a normal tobacco juice. Sorry to seem so dense. Sue

Sue, you are not dense - far from it! I also wouldn't know how many drops to add. looks like we have new UK supplier with some interesting e-juice flavours from the US, but he need s to get his act together a tad more with his website : - www.paradisevapeuk.com/

Unfortunately, this is the dense asking the dense I just put, say, 5 drops in a part bottle of juice, then I decide I can't taste it so I add 5 more, still can't taste it so go mad and squeeze 10 more drops in - etc, etc, etc. I've just been to ECF to find some flavouring threads but got waylaid and came back empty handed EDIT - Chrissie you hadn't posted when I started scylla

Scylla, thats exactly what I would do. Some of those flavours sound soooooo good. I`m going to order the cream from Lisa. I think that would be really nice with a fruity flavour added. Do you know anyone besides TW who has the flavours. I can`t find any from my usual suppliers. Thanks for the link Chrissie,interesting. Sue

Try www.liberty-flights.co.uk/products.asp as they sell the Flavour Art flavourings and also the unflavoured nicotine liquid. You can use the discount code ECF69 for a whopping 15% off While you are there, have a look on their forum. One of their members is currently creating a whole new area with tried and tested 'recipes' for mixing your own juice. I can't make any recommendations I'm afraid as I have only just received my mixing gear and have yet to attempt any concoctions. Good luck with your foray into alchemy!

Sue, Liberty flights sell Flavourart flavourings to add to your juice : - www.liberty-flights.co.uk/product.asp?id=15BTW, I've been in email contact with James of Paradise vape (what a lovely person he is). I think when he is eventually fully stocked & he finishes tweaking his site, he will be a welcome asset to the UK vaping community

Thanks everyone. Liberty has so much of everything,I will need to spend quite a time looking. So many flavours I can`t choose. The price of their 5 pack atties for 901s is great and if you get discount as well,its even better. Bought mine last week and don`t need anymore. Sue

Sue, it's also great to see that Liberty Flights has a 14 day guarantee on their 5 packs.
