Watermelon is a strong flavour but dont vape it all day get a subtle one to give the buds a bit of rest and exercise, you might find watermelon sickly later on.
Fags are a thing of the past, you can save a few bob so long as you steer clear of the shinys, well done ditching them looking forward to you posting your favourite vapes, When youve sussed youre flavours.

Malic acid gets a mention in the magic mask
write up in the link Ash posted it doesnt alter the ph but it might mask
any vinegary acidy taste if your using vinegar to squash the alkaline
levels.
I want to get on with a bit of experimenting this theory could turn either way.

It is and it isnt.
 Im only mixing for myself, Any experimenting fluids are only mixed in 2 to 5ml samples, I can afford to dump that kind of quantity as Im only on a relatively low nic mg. Ive a feeling the pool testing kits might need bigger samples. Its something Ill look into when Im out and about, Thanks for the heads up.

the test strips are good.

None of the TV appearances have yet featured a clearo or any other devise that you fill up yourself.
The caller tried to talk about his Ecig and was talked over, If they are not supermarket friendly they aint going to show.
Another good advertisement for cigalites and corporate refills, why hide the more popular fill your own devises ?

Dont do it.

After mixing my first flavours a few weeks ago and tasting how strong they was only to start fading away I started to do my following mixes with more concentrate. I was expecting a stable strength flavoured juice but got the opposite, flavours that died on me, tasting of very mild soapy water. I have mixed at 25% 30% and 35%.

Reading about, I heard about vapers tongue and what people do to try and cure it, one guy said eat salt and vinegar crisps, I give it a go and I could taste the juice not as strong as it should of been and it soon died off after a minute or so. Not having any more crisps I gargled some malt vinegar again the vapes taste returned for a few minutes then died off.
I then remembered reading one of maccafans posts where he was saying vapour is very alkaline, the penny dropped as I realized the vinegars acid had been neutralizing any alkaline build up on my taste buds.

I have done some more mixes at 20% and the flavour is there not intense as I was striving for when I first start mixing but not weak either.
 Im now starting to look at adding concentrate the same like butting sugar in my tea, If it tastes ok dont up the sugar to make it sweeter you get used to it in no time and end up having to put more in. This only leads in the juice case to an over alkaline mouth leaving you wondering where the hell as the flavour disappeared to.
Im now going to experiment with lower %ages and find out just how much flavour gets lost to mixing over strong juice.

I threw mine in the draw for a week when I was having the same problem.
I went back to it only to discover I had taken the carto out to prime it and but it back through the wrong side.
This some how stops a vacuum building up in your tank and you end up sucking through juice with no resistance.
If everything is right just blow through the carto from the battery end and stick a bit of tissue at the other end to mop up any exess juice that would be gurgling up into your mouth.
Im using a 6ml tank and it dont like to be sat to long or the carto gets to wet, Ive to take it easy for the first ten drags or so then I can drag on it a lot harder.
