Same result here:  It's down to the PG, VG or nic. I suspect the nic. The nic should smell slightly of ciggies at room temperature MrsmacYes I suspect the nix, it smells alot stronger than slightly off fags, more like when there is a wet bucket full outside...not that I know what that smells like lol |

Thanks guys that looks similar. Sometimes I use 7mg.I suspect it to be the nic then as that is why I the out my other mixes. They just didn't seen right. Actually I have some 12mg nic so well redo using that nic and see if I get the same smell and taste.

Sorry, I am confusing everyone. I am not mixing the two concentrates together, they are two different mixes with the same Robles. Both the concentrates smell good like the mixes I originally brought from the vendors. Writing it down, I am thinking that it may be my nicotine that is off? Can that happen, I have no idea how it is supposed to smell! Lol Ripshod |

Sorry yes, I am. I am using mixing calculators and using the percentages given. My most recent mix for example was 2ml concentrate, 1.3ml nicotine, 5ml vg and 1.7ml pg forthe magma mix

With my latest venture into rba's, I really need to try and get my mixing skills right as I have to adjust the strength I use.
the problem is when I mix, my mixes smells of nothing but a yeasty funny kind of smell, I had several bottles steeping and through them away because all I could really taste was what I assume is the nicotine. Although my mind is full of recipes I want to try, until I can solve this dilemma.
currently I am trying two basic mixes both with concentrates and percentages given by the kind vendors. I am using 54% nicotine and using the concentrates at 25% and 20% both recommended by the vendors themselves. But yet, when I mix them, no matter how long left, they taste and smell yeasty.
Is it me? Just can't seem to get anything right at the mo

I definately am not saying that myepack are a bad vendor in anyway, and as i previously stated 90% of my equipment is from there and definately without issue. Please guys, this thread was actually just me venting, i was excited that myepack were doing kayfuns as they are usually my preferred vendor for things so jumped at the chance to get one and disappointed when it arrived and wanted to show everyone that not all clones are equal, which this is my first experience of.
Think i'll just go somewhere quiet and hope that i can get this resolved, not being silly just concerned as to what i have started

I thank each and every individual one of you for your support through this, i have no doubt that it will get sorted, obviously i now have to wait on royal mail to deliver what i received and i really dont want this draggin on long after. i avoided naming and tagging because i didnt want it to seem like an attack as I have ordered many things from the company over the last few months which have been excellent and value for money and would still like to be able to order should the need arise in the future, i just feel that the process of returning an item if you feel it inadequate can be long winded. i think this was not helped by the fact that it was a weekend!  |
