| I guess it just a mater of finding the sweet spot but here the question. I have try a lot of juices and i can say i hate how they taste. The only flavors i have loved have been the ones when i vape them and they are almost tasteless. When i smoke and i can just get a hint of flavor vs over load of flavor if that makes any sense.
So question until i find a my hand full of flavors i love can i just order like a pg/vg mix in 18 nic and cut it to try to even out the flavor?
Or anyone ever have a juice where when you vape it you can just get a hint of the flavor? |

| Narcosis,what nic level do you need to vape? You can reduce flavor by adding PG or VG to a juice that has strong flavor.
I regularly buy 24 mg juice and to get the 10-12mg/ml that i normally vape, add an equal amount of 90%VG/10%distilled water mixer to "stretch" the juice(basically doubling my juice for about 2-3 cents per ml)the consequence is reduced flavor which I can usually tolerate. I don't do that with premium juice just general purpose vaping juice. The "good stuff" is for a treat not for diluting.
If after diluting thenic hit is to low you can add unflavored nic juice to kick it back to the required level

If you just want a little flavor, then check the suppliers for the plain nic strength that you want. Add some flavor base, mix and vape away. Bikes suggestion is how I started mixing, and now I buy straight nic, make a large batch with no flavor and then small batches with flavoring added. |

| or you can just get DIY mats and add the amount you want for your own taste. bikes suggestion seems easier though, also cheaper depending on where your get your DIY materials.

| Tek,you're a natural,not everyone is.
Van may not be able to see the scoop you're using. You know what you've got in front of you. How big is that scoop? 1/4 gram? 1/4 teaspoon? 1/4 cup,1/4 of a 3cu yd backhoe bucket? Are you turning the EM into a liquid BEFORE adding to the nic juice? What is your solvent for dissolving the EM crystals.
Van doesn't know what to do to accomplish what you do,give him some details and specifics. What are you using and what are you doing with it specifically.
I can make a mod but I have to buy 3 times the materials to make one because I break,burn,fracture and melt every thing I touch in the process OR I can get someone else to make it for me because they are good at it and I am not, or possibly they know what they are doing and I do not. All I lack is time,talent,training and treasure.

| Good point bikes.
1/32 a teaspoon i belive but here is some thing easyer..
take some em, and add to pure pg or vg.. say i tea spoon to a 30ml bottle.
then shake and shake.. What does not disolve dont worry about.. leave that in the bottle, and keep adding pg or vg, to that and keep making em extract..
take the mixture, after a few days <or to speed it up, heat for 5 seconds in the microwave and let cool> take all the liquid, and now you have cotton candy or em extract.. take the liquid out of the bottle, leave the em that did not disolve.. for the above next batch..
help lol.. |

| Yeah, but no added flavor, hence, uflavored. I don't know how to make it so it has no taste at all. ECOpure Krystal is as close to flavorless as I've tried, and it still tastes like VG.
