    Why would they delist this from the official FDA Youtube channel? Hmm, maybe its because they have been getting sued a lot.

    'Suggest a Recipe for my Flavors' Thread - Week of October 28, 2024

    Got a bunch of flavors but not sure how to make them work together? Post your list here, and our team of semi-professional mixologists will make suggestions for you! Don't forget to include manufacturers' names for all of your concentrates, and make your list easier to read by using bullet points or at least listing each of your flavors on a new line by hitting return twice after each flavor.

    There are Recipe Sharing websites in the sidebar where you can register a free account, input your flavors, sort by rating, and either mix something up or be inspired to make something with your ingredients. Actually, if we are being honest, a link to your stash in atf is what you should do if you have any more than a dozen flavors. Otherwise, it's an eye sore but you're welcome to try it either way.

    Co2 to prevent nic base degradation irtr

    Whenever you open nic bottle, air with fresh oxygen gets in, degrading a bit of nic in the solution during storage. One way to prevent it is to air the bottle with Argon gas before capping it.

    Could Co2 be used instead? Or is nicotine too reactive even for that?

    (chatgpt says Co2 is fine, but would be nice to hear from someone who tried this)

    Diy Balkan Blends irtr

    Hello guys, I'm making some pure tobacco e-juice lines, I use most of the flavors from FLV. Currently I'm making a tbc bottle that has a rustic flavor and is easy to smoke (vaping all day). I am currently using Oriental, Tuskish, Virginia, Latakia and Red Oak.On a 100% scale, I mix the ratios as follows: Oriental: 35% Turkish: 15% Virginia: 25% Latakia: 15% Red Oak: 10%

    It gives off a sweet, predominantly Oriental and Virginia flavor, with a hint of leather and mustiness. The reason I added Turkish was to enhance the cedar and musty smell but I never really smelled cedar. The oak scent I added because I like the smell, it doesn't affect the overall look too much I think.

    I try to imitate Balkan Blends like on pipe tobacco, of course it can't be too similar w DIY juice, but the current problem I find missing in my juice is the smell of the ash, tar and a bit of smoke and soil. I'm wondering if I should add Dirty Neutral Base, Black fire ?

    I take the spicy but gentle of Oriental as the main, I don't know if the ratio I mix is ​​too little Latakia and too much Oriental or Virginia. I found the flavor base to be okay, it just lacked that burn of pipe tobacco. Thanks guys

    Bullcity flavors VG (irtr)

    I have not ordered VG in quite some time and have honestly been a bigger fan of noms lately but needed VG and ordered flavors and bottles and tossed in VG. They wouldn’t process the order with the VG. I’m in the lockdown state of NY. It’s VG, not the devil N.

    Bull City Flavors won't ship PG/VG to NYC anymore? Irtr

    So always I ordered PG or VG from BCF, last time was in the middle of the summer I believe. So last week I tried to order the same again and it said "some products in your cart can't be shipped to your location". Turns out it was PG/VG - and not in huge quantites, I tried both 0.5l and 1l. The site doesn't explain it in anyway - my flavors shipped okay.

    Is there any awesome new legislation about base liquid I missed? Thanks in advance!

    Reproduce twangy effect IRTr

    Hello,

    I love six licks tongue twister series, I am succeeding to approach most of their recipes in terms of taste, but never succeeded to reproduce the twangy effect on the tongue.

    I tried sour, powerful sour, sour ball candy, and other already flavored sour but nothing.. I imagined also I needed more something like citric acid, and indeed something like lemon drop flavor gives something approaching but I don’t want all my recipes have a lemon flavor, any advice, thoughts ?

    Thanks !

    Fall Flavors

    Hi everyone,

    Sorry it's been so long since I've checked in. I've been meaning to write several posts and life has happened and, well, that's just the way the cap sugar cookie crumbles. So, here I am with a need to mix some seasonal vapes for a friend and going through some old reliables. Figured I'd share some recipes and ask what you all like to hit in these fall times.

    Classic "Fall in a Bottle":
    Cabin by u/AlfredPudding - still kinda top dog in terms of selling Fall and changing seasons, it's a 123 that has apple, tobacco and pear yet tastes like none of those things. It tastes like Fall in a Fucking Bottle.

    Pumpkin without Pumpkin:
    Gourd is Dead by u/WolfWheeler - It's got a great name, but that taste is simply special. There really is no other explanation of it other than, you can read the description, you can and imagine what it tastes like, you can say you think it's pretentious sounding but -- mother of christ -- is it delicious. It was my submission for recipe of the year back when we did those things and it would never have won because you people have shit for taste. :)

    Apple Oat Crumble RY4 - I'm actually not an RY4 fan. In fact, I mostly dislike it; there are just so many better flavors that can do what RY4s promise but dont sell. This was my attempt to make something with RY4 that I liked. I did it out of pure spite and, well... people liked it. Including me. So, here it is!

    123 cinnapple side dish by u/ID10-T - Dude. take this with you camping. Aside from that lovely bit of advice, it's a 123 that is so fucking good, accurate to what it is supposed to be, and just downright delicious. You can add shit to it and I did for years. Want some crust? Add tpa ccgc. blah blah blah. I have stolen and reused and repurposed this mix so many times that I'm surprised I haven't been sued yet. 100% recommend.

    Clearly for me the fall association with apples is strong, so I will finish with another one I think is pretty amazing:
    Warm Cinnamon Apple Cider by u/Kindground. This is an example of craftsmanship in creating a mix (much like the other ones on this list). You're probably not going to find HS Apple Mix anywhere anytime soon. And this is not one of those, can i just sub X for Y recipes. Everything here has an intention. You will get close, of course, if you use the key players and thoughtfully sub for notes, but it won't be the same. And it is great.

    Some of my own Honorable Mentions:
    High Five v1 - I never published it because I still refuse to believe that this first attempt at this mix was the best it could be. I have yet to make it better so here it stands. Fruit punch tobacco? Nah, the bacco is barely present, it's just a fun weird thing I did. I loved it and have remixed it many times, which is super rare for me, especially of my own recipes.

    Prapple Bacco 2021 - a remix of an older Fear recipe that I really made for u/ID10-T for fun. I got my stamp of approval and it was fun to make. The addition of MB shape up pear was input from Sanctum and reworking something is a really fun challenge.

    Anyways... I'm stuck on apple. What's your fall flavor associations and/or mixes you like to try? Comment below!

    (IRTR) ADV Recipe - Summer Cooler

    Hey all,

    Check out my latest recipe, Summer Cooler.

    A sweet blend of Fuji Apple, Green Apples, Strawberry, Peach and Watermelon.

    This one started off as an accident 😂, but has turned out quite refreshing and virtually none of the dreaded loss of flavour as you vape it.

    Link to the recipe:

    http://tjek.nu/r/JHXW

    Additives are Cactus, WS-23 and Supersweet.

    Awesome as a semi-shake and vape after 3-4hrs (lets some of the flavours blend in and apple starts to make its way through). Ideal steep time for maximum pleasure so far is approx. 10-12 days. All the flavours blend together, but are still quite individually distinguishable creating a full, sweet, fruity mix reminiscent of a cool mocktail on a warm summers day.

    Illawara Grape IRTR

    Heyo, I thought I bought a 250ml bottle of Inawera Grape but it turned out to be Illawara Grape. I can’t seem to find any reviews for this product though so I am not sure how much to use. I even searched here and cannot find any mention of Illawarra grape. Does anyone know?

    The only place I've seen it in stock is DIYflavours.com and my cart just spinny-wheels when it's time to check out. Been out of the game a very long time so pardon me if something obvious has changed that I don't know about. I've done extensive google searching through the sub and haven't found an answer.

    Clone Request Thread - October 2024

    Love some commercial juice but are tired of paying someone else to mix for you? Then you are in the right place. First, did you use the sidebar and search feature? There are also specific clone threads linked in the sidebar. If these have turned up dry, then please post your request for a clone recipe here.

    However, you should know that most of the experienced users no longer buy commercial juice. Why pay retail when you can mix amazing juice for less than 1/10th of that?

    Be as descriptive as possible.

    Include:

    1. the description provided by the vendor
    2. a description of what you taste.
    3. include a link to any recipes you have already tried (and what was different from the OG).
    4. PLEASE NOTE IF YOU ARE WILLING TO ACCEPT A REMIX OF THE PROFILE. A remix is an attempt to make that kind of juice without attempting to recreate the Original. [It is much much easier for lesser experienced mixers to suggest ways they would attempt to make this juice.]

    The more information you provide, the easier it will be for someone to help you.

    Read more on Clone Recipes and how to get he most out of your request.

    **Just be warned that if you do not put any effort into your request, the chances of someone Doing It For You are very, very low.**

    Happy Mixing!
