Not my list but found on the net
Additives
TA- Tobacco Absolute (ALC) (Contains EM)– You can buy this premade from TFA 1% in most tobaccos; makes it “pop”. It’s that “missing element”.
Purified Medical Inhalation Saline .5% – 1 drop per 10ml (Bakery and Tobaccos) Adds body and enhances juice. May add salty note.
EM = Ethyl Maltol – Crystals to liquid - 1/4 tsp. to 10 ml warm PG or PGA (Some say VG will work) Tiny Bit (A fraction of 1% in your mix) - Gives a "body" to the vapor and may slightly reduce sharp notes. A Bit (Close to 1% +/- in your mix) - As above but will take the edge off sharp notes and may very slightly sweeten. A Bunch (1%-5% of your total mix) - As above plus sweeten A Load (10%+ of your total mix) - Cotton Candy flavor (EM info written by Hoosier)
ACV= Apple Cider Vinegar – 1-2 drops per 5ml (Tobaccos)
Lemon Juice - 1-2 drop per 5 ml (Fruits)
Sour TFA – Malic Acid 20% solution. 1-2 drops per 10Ml Makes Fruits “pop”
Tart and Sour – (Citric and Malic Acid) 1-2 drops per 10Ml (Higher % creates Jolly Rancher-like effect) Makes fruits “pop”
Menthol – Crystals to liquid – 50/50 in PG or VG Start a 2% (Some say 5%) – depends on how much you like menthol. 1 drop to 10ml brightens fruits with menthol actually tasted
Vape Wizard (MTS) More,Thicker,Smoother– .5-2% - Smooth’s things out, cuts down harshness, creates body. Can dull flavors, use sparingly. (Possibly Oakwood flavoring)-patkin Hoosier says; “MTS Vape Wizard, aka VW. MTS is supposed to stand for More Thicker Smoother. It can help some mixes produce more vapor. (Some flavorings actually reduce vapor production) It can smooth or help blend flavors together. I use it in the 1 drop per 10ml to 1 drop per 3ml range, but usually start closer to the middle at 1 drop per 5ml to see if it will do a darn thing to the mix. Sometimes it seems to work wonders, but I've never had it make a mix worse”.
Bitter Wizard – .5-2% - 1 drop to 10ml - Removes sweetness, adds dryness. May hurt blend (start with small batch). Hoosier says; “Bitter Wizard. This makes things bitter. Mostly useful for tobacco blends, but sometimes a bit of bitter will make things much more flavorful. Again 1 drop per 10ml to 1 drop per 2ml is a useful range. I usually start at the tiny 1 drop per 10ml and work up if it is needed”.
Magic Mask – .5-2% - Reduces acid perception without modifying PH. Adds mouthfeel. Hoosier says; “Magic Mask. This is weird stuff and I find it is more likely to hurt the taste of a mix than to help it. It can take really sharp notes down and make them palatable. I usually start over if I have used this in a mix and it helps and always start over if I have used this in a mix and it makes it worse. It may work better for you than me. This is the last thing I ever try on a mix”.
Smooth - .5-2% - Rounds out any harsh edges, provide a thick mouthfeel, softens the high notes of your blend while boosting your background notes.
Sweetener’s - Sucralose (Most Common) – Better Stevia (Alternative – some say chemical taste) 1-2 Drops per 10 ml or 1% adds strength in flavor and sweetens greatly. (Remember; less is more, start small) – Mostly used in fruits, candy, and bakery flavors.
Other Sweetener Options – TFA Marshmallow- adds moistness and sweetens. TFA Molasses adds sweetness + a trace spice. TFA Brown Sugar Extra – adds sweetness. Some custards and Vanillas have also been used (Also known to brighten other flavors).
Ethyl Vanillin 10% Solution – Crystals to liquid – ¼ tsp to 10ml PG? Unsure Great sweetener + Vanilla taste.
Caryophyllene Oxide TFA 1% PG – .5-1% - Adds a woody notes to tobaccos and mixes well with some fruits. - eikon
AP = Acetyl Pyrazine 10% soulution – .5-2% Adds a bready/nutty note (Can turn into Frito taste if overused) Use sparingly.
Aldehyde – L-14 Peach – TFA - Diluted to 1% - Use at .5-1% Be extremely careful with undiluted solution. Adds “a very dry, not sweet, peachy note” - eikon
TH= Throat hit - “Capella's Horchata, want2vape's Caramel #2” Also, some cinnamon’s. -
PGA= Pure Grain Alcohol (Everclear/151 Rum/Vodka - high proof) 1-2 drops per 5 ml = Throat Hit
Side Notes
Higher vg mixes 50%+; flavors are less intense – May require more flavor
70pg-30vg seems to be the commercial "norm".
Too much flavor will create flat taste…adding more flavor will most likely not “make it better"

I have a clone 20w istick that the charging light never goes out on mart166 it's just a fault with the light as checking it is fully charged after around 2 or 3 hours and works perfectly. My istick 40's I use in tc mode but find that they last around three quarters of the time that the 20's did. Mine take between 2 and 3 hours to charge depending on whether I run them out or not. I have 2 so it's not a problem for me.

I don't have the Lemo ripperkipper but I do coil using Ni200 in my goblin mini wicked with Muji cotton. I have found that too much cotton will mute the flavour. I use a 2.5mm former 6 to 7 loose wraps which usually comes out at .15 on my istick 40.

The coil needs to be saturated to wick well rach1981 so it sounds like you didn't put enough juice into the holes. To help with wicking on a new coil take a few puffs without firing this pulls the juice into the wicking material and usually only need to done on a new coil. With the volts and wattage it will only use the last that you set either one or the other and is best to just try for the setting you prefer with whatever juice you are using as different juices taste better at different settings. I personally use watts and range between 7 - 9 but I am not a cloud chaser.

I can't see any reason why not although I have never tried I think it depends on your wicking material I use cotton. I've always cleaned the parts of rebuildables in the sonic cleaner including rubbers. I am someone that will always give it a try especially with something that would otherwise be thrown out nothing lost then.

Hi banditruss I just use warm water for 2 8 minute cycles and I clean my nickel coils in them just drop them in. I have found that I can do this a few times to extend the life of sealed coils. I haven't tried Kanthal coils as I don't have any sealed ones.

The forum calc allows you to put in the pg/vg and nic ratio in top box which would be your premixed base happyloman I also think you should not mix such a large volume to start with I usually only do 5ml testers to start. With the pre mixed base you have I would think about 5mg is the highest you can achieve.

I think the beauty of mixing anubis is that you adjust any recipe to your personal taste. I often leave out or swap some flavours and mix a small 5ml sample to try.

The blunt needles are universal and attach to all syringes peter12 and are needed to get into the concentrate flavour bottles to measure that. You can get them from eBay with the syringes I don't use pipettes at all though I did buy some when I started mixing found that I never used them

Boots vg is the value health glycerin peter12 I've also used glycerin from Lloyds chemist which is only slightly dearer and saves a trip into town. I know some other use glycerin from Superdrug as well

I read earlier that e-cigs are only going to be allowed in the 1st year then it's only patches. More money for pharma which are already proven not to work.
