I use Care+ Glycerin from the local chemists, would you consider it really thick Perps? It is quite iLardyboy, pretty much like Boots - depends which base you're using, PG you won't need to dilute. VG if it's a runny(ish) one you won't either - that's just my personal choice though. With the warmer temperatures we're having then our eliquid becomes less gloopy anyway, I'm not a fan of runny/thin eliquid as I reckon it leads to more leakage issues on certain set ups. But again, that's me and my personal preference. Which no one else may share.  Do your VG heavy juices wick ok using a microcoil and cotton, or do you need to use a different setup for your juices? |

So when diluting VG, would I add 10ml of vodka/water to 100ml of base to dilute by 10%? Is that right? My method is slightly less scientific iLardyboy . . . . I decant some plain VG off into a separate bottle and just slosh enough in ( the VG! ) until it's less gloopy. Then I always have some ready to use, although if it's a runny(ish) VG base, which the ones from within the UK tend to be I've found. Then I don't use diluted VG as I prefer a thicker eliquid. Toots uses Nicvapes base, which is quite thick. I use Care+ Glycerin from the local chemists, would you consider it really thick Perps? |

How do all get your liquids to be 100% VG, doesn't the flavourings add PG to a mix? I've been curious about 100% VG, but I tried some Accies Ambrosia and it didn't wick very well with a microcoil and cotton. You can't iLardyboy . . . unless it's an organic concentrate which has the flavours carried in organic VG, or pure Ethanol/Alcohol based. There aren't so many of those ranges about that I've seen. If kaska is using F'arts then there will be some PG in the mix, so strictly speaking they're not 100% VG. So when diluting VG, would I add 10ml of vodka/water to 100ml of base to dilute by 10%? Is that right? |

I've got to order some more concentrates, then I'll get a big batch mixed up. I see custardy love child has vanillin in it, what difference does it make to the juice Perpetua lairey? adds a very slight creamier note... I've got a big bag of crystals iLardyboy... drop me a PM with your address and I'll send some to you  Just mix with PG like you would menthol crystals. around 10% crystals to PG. That's very kind of you lairey, thank you very much. I'll PM you. |

I know Perps, I'm so ashamed:( And so you should be! You need to mix up 300ml and as soon as your stock drops below 200ml, make another batch... that's what I do now and I've always got lots of custard, at least 8 weeks old  I've got to order some more concentrates, then I'll get a big batch mixed up. I see custardy love child has vanillin in it, what difference does it make to the juice Perpetua lairey? |

It's been just over two weeks since I vaped PVC, just now, I've filled a tank with it and......I'm in love with it all over again. It's the bottom of a batch a made about 5-6 weeks ago, and it tastes even more amazing now. I usually can't get past two weeks without cracking the bottle open, but I've been giving other juices a chance and I set it to the side while doing so.
The only problem now is I've only got about 3 days worth left. I've been a bad boy and not kept to my batch mixing of it and now it's going to be torture, because this time I'll be leaving it for at least 5 weeks. Sympathy please!!

Thanks, iLardyboy - I will get onto your Eye of Sauron tomorrow hopefully! Let me know how it goes and what you think of it. Also I'd recommend you adding Sweetener and MTS Vape Wizard to your ingredient box. They are great additives and very common in recipes on the site and most likely if you try to create your own recipes. |

can I just dissolve some granulated sugar or icing sugar in it?  I wouldn't have thought so...try it without it and see how it is. It's only 10ml so you won't be wasting much if you don't like it. |

iLardyboy - is there anything I can use except the sweetener - that's the only ingredient I haven't got in my mix box There's nothing on your list of ingredients to replace the sweetener, but you could try it without it. It won't be as sweet, but that may be ok for you. |

For my Eye of Sauron recipe, which I think you said you wanted to try....for 10ml you'd mix this:
Nic - 3.3ml
PG - 0.3ml
VG - 3ml
TPA Cinnamon Red Hots - 1.5ml
DV Absinthe - 0.5ml
FA Anise - 0.5ml
TPA Pineapple - 0.5ml
TPA Sweetener - 0.2ml
FA Menthol Artic- 0.2ml
You can try it fresh and see if you like it, but I'd let it sit for a week for best flavour.

Just mix with PG like you would menthol crystals. around 10% crystals to PG.
