Howzit everyone,

Looking at getting into mixing,

I am a big fan of dessert vapes and cereal vapes.

Can you guys recommend any recipes for my first time doing the DIY thing?

not always but you can often sub with something close. sometimes you land up with a new unique twist on a recipe.

perhaps look at a DIY vendors flavour list and see what they have to offer. that helps to influence recipes alot better.

a good place to start is http://valleyvapour.co.za/

R25 for 25ml? Is he a vendor or does he mix it himself, or is he selling cheap Hangsen and Liqua juices. Just asking as it sounds too good to be true and normally, when it does, it is.

 

[Calvin305]

Haha not sure just yet, a friend of mine has been buying liquids from him for mixing

Liquids or flavors? When we talk about liquids or juices, we talk about ready mixed juice. Flavors or concentrates are the stuff you use in the base liquid to get the different flavors of the juice. Which are you talking about?

 

[Calvin305]

Oh no they are the flavors sorry, it is concentrate

Be careful mate. Find out if he's getting it from reputable flavor companies or extracting the flavors himself. You should know what you're inhaling when you make of buy e liquids. I only buy flavors that are made by reputable companies like TFA, Lorann, Flavorwest, etc. Be very careful.

 

[Calvin305]

Where do you source your liquids from?? And what do you pay for them?

99.9% of most concentrates are pg based

 

[Calvin305]

100% pg?

Yes

But if you knew the manufacturer then you can google the data sheet

Valley vapour

 

[Calvin305]

Haha okay, brands that you use? And flavours that are quite universal for dessert vapes?? Like cheescake graham crust? Vanilla custard?

I get my concentrates from SkyBlue Vaping, Valley Vapour and Vapour Mountain.
Concentrates are in liquid form and the liquid is PG 99% of the time. If you want VG based concentrates, then you'll prob have to import.
The concentrates that I use most are made by TFA (The Flavor Apprentice), Lorann, Flavor West and FA (Flavor Art). They all had their concentrates tested for dangerous chemicals like Diacetyl, Acetyl Propionyl, and Acetoin and they publish the lab reports. Those are the ones I trust. I also trust the flavors from Vapour Mountain. Those people are awesome!

Haha think i am not going to try saving money, i suppose 10ml does go a long way, if you had to work it out, does it come to about R70 for a 30ml bottle??

I haven't worked it out. I just enjoy mixing and vaping my own creations
No matter how you look at it, it's cheaper than buying e liquid and def cheaper than smoking. So it's a win win in my books.
That is with e liquids.
With hardware, now that can be an expensive venture. I'd rather not go there...
