| Hi Everyone,
I have a vanilla flavoring and a menthol flavoring. I would like to add it to a tobacco flavored juice. Using a small (JC sampler) dropper, approx. how many drops should I add of each to 3 ml's of tobacco flavored juice. I know tastes differ, but I have no idea how concentrated this stuff is.
Thanks  |

| What I do - and I think most of us do - is add a couple of drops and shake it up really good and vape it....need more flavor just add a few drops. Keep track of how many drops you are adding until you get it to just the way you like it so you know for next time. It is all personal taste....what someone else likes may not suit your tastebuds. You will end up with your own custom made juice that is perfect for you - happy vaping! | |

I've already messed up some of it. The menthol is not that good. I bought some new cartomizers for my eGo and added 2.5mls of my "home brew" as directed. Now I see that 2 mls is plenty! I ended up with a mouth full of juice and a cartomizer filled with nasty juice that I have to vape out. You live, you learn  | |

| Exactly, Rose. This is a learning process, but one worth pursuing.
Menthol is very strong compared to vanilla so understanding that may be your jumping off point.
You may want to do what Rocket suggests and set aside a jug of unsuccessful mixes by type, i.e fruity,tobacco,menthol, coffees etc. and save them for later experimenting or just that rainy day when you're waiting on an order to come in.
When you develope a good recipe write down all the elements in a log book and label the container "MY menthol/vanilla/tobacco blend" or whatever. | |

Now that I feel like I've been vaping a Christmas tree all day, I think I will try something else. I really like the tobacco/vanilla taste. Maybe I'll leave the menthol alone for awhile. | |

| Boy have I messed up some juice trying to flavor it. But I found that most of the time you can add enough unflavored juice to it to make it palatable. I only mix very small amounts in 3ml bottles so I do not waste it. I found the fruity flavors seem to be strong...like cherry, strawberry, orange,lemon but the food flavors like caramel, coffee, cola are not as strong. Funny story- i had a few drops left in a bunch of little bottles and said "what the heck" and mixed them all together - it was the BEST I have ever had and I have never been able to reproduce it since! | |

Ha! but isn't that the way it always happens! I've reverted to using premixed stuff tonight. No more surprises! I'm using my carts now and am confused. (imagine that) I fill them up and they only last a couple of hours. I start out with big vape and flavor and all just goes away. Am I suppose to refill them again or throw them away after each fill?
Then again, the cartomizers that I got (and probably ruined one with the menthol stuff) are made of plastic! Is there any way to clean and reuse them? I'm not a pauper, but I got kids to raise. Yall are gonna get so tired of me! Just tell me when the curtain call is coming!!! Please don't send the Sci-Fi man after me. I've already bothered him enough! | |

| I always saved my early failures and premixed stuff I didn't care for.
Mixing it all together and than having an idea of what you want & how to get it can be a quite pleasant experience,

| What the frig is up with the second one? Look at the last 'flavors', some idiot spammed it (probably a bot). Ah, the wonders of the Internet.
It may have been less 'sophisticated' 17 years ago, but it was a lot better.

| Heh. Yeah. I remember when a 'tard like me could build a website. Now I need a program to handle the program that talks to the program that tells the other program what to display. | |
