Whoopsy. I just ditched it all. Never mind I'm currently vaping on your mint choc ice cream . Yum . Also got your mint chocolate which has the lid off as it has a slightly biscuit smell to it but it was only made on 31/3. So will come back to that one later Some of my nicest home brews are now very dark in colour rednutt.   They look like what I've just thrown. Ahh well it's all learning. On the up side I've got loads of clean bottles now haha |

The black e-juice is probably off if it's black and 2 years old depends a lot on the flavouring. Off e-juice has a distinct taste peppery sort of. Hi,
Firstly, Black or dark e-juice, does not indicate that it has gone off, just the opposite... it has most likely matured very well.... I have bottles at 2 years old in my personal collection, and they are some of the best you can taste. Don't throw away what could be a very nice juice.
Secondly, fresh nic can and often does have a peppery smell / taste. It needs time to mature and blend once mixed with other components. The peppery note will decapitate with proper steeping.
Some suppliers of Nicotine (usually from USA, China, India, etc) send older stock where the nicotine has already aged, most Nic from the USA is Indian manufactured and imported to the USA and then sold to customers in the UK. So can be a few months old before purchased.

Yeah teethcv I'm nervous about it and that why I've only bought 100ml of nic just now to see if I get the hang of it. I've got lots of joosejuice steeping just now and some from alchemist so I will be relying on my vendor juice for the time being while I practice and my aim is to make vapable juice and stockpile stuff for future so that nasty government can't stop me  |

Brilliant. All I need to do is wait on mr postman bringing all my goodies. I've got loads of old bottles of ejuice that I never used and most full. 2 years old. Are they too old? Was going to empty them down the sink and wash and reuse the bottles. Some of the liquid is black like my full bottle of grants vanilla custard.
I haven't worked out a preference for pg or vg. I used 100% vg virgin vapour butter mint cream which I loved. Used to get a slight runny nose but I thought that was maybe more to do with mint.

I've been playing around with the forum mix calculator. It's saying I need to add more pg but I don't have any apart from nic base. Can I just add extra vg in place of it therefore rather than a 50/50 it would be more like 45/55 ? Would it be too thick? Here a pic  |

Yeah I like the fact it £1 odds a bottle . I just bought boots glycerin B.P. I was going to buy 72mg nic from vapersemporium but they want £10 delivery! So I just ordered 100ml 54mg from Joosejuice for £12.50. Will need to find the best place to buy nic 72mg in future if I am successful at juice making . I just got some juice delivered this morning from alchemists cupboard. Mint Choc chip ice cream mmmm yum. Would love to know how to make that. It's not on the recipes he has posted. It's definitely my favourite juice so far. Thanks everyone for helping me out x I'm going to read up on the links posted above xxx |

Do you have to use drops? Couldn't I use a syringe and measure in mls?
actually just realised it's more accurate in drops than .2 of a ml
Is there a certain dropper I should use?

I've been reading and reading through loads of posts and I've realised that a lot of people are hoarding/ stocking up on nic base. Is this for fear of it being banned?
If so then I'd better get on the bandwagon too but I'm on info overload. I think I have the basic understanding, correct me if I'm wrong please.
i have ordered 100 ml of 54mg (54/18 =3ml) which I want to make 18mg so I would add 3ml to a 10 ml bottle along with 5ml plain vg and 2ml approx flavouring ? Am I getting close to how you make your own? Then if I find it too strong I could add less flavour and more vg in the correct ratio?
im also wanting to make a chocolate mint so was looking at Capella flavours. Am I better with Dutch choc mint or getting the double chocolate and the cool mint seperately?
sorry about all the questions. Any advice and ideas would be great x
