On topic but slightly different convo, I've been exploring flavoring and wanted to share a resource I've come across. (talking about flavoring your juice by adding concentrated flavors here)
The Vaping Underground forums have
an entire section (5 sub-forums) on DIY liquid. Nic needs are different from Cannabis, but anyone curious about DIY juice, and flavoring their juice can get lots of relevant info here.
The recipes sub-forum in particular could be useful to people here. If you buy concentrated flavorings to add to your juice, it's hard to estimate how much to put in sometimes! Skimming through some recipes helps give you an understanding for flavor additive ratios. Also, most people on that site use flavors by the same company: FlavorArt (FA). Since different flavors from different companies are different strengths and require different ratios in recipes, it's super helpful when you find recipes that use all one company's flavors!
Also, there's a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable poster over there named HeadInClouds (HIC) who posts lots of great recipes, but also posts notes on each flavor from FlavorArt (taste, strength, suggested mixing ratios, etc). There are a bunch of separate 'notes' threads, but
all of those notes on FlavorArt flavors have been compiled on this page for easy reference (with HIC's permission). Very useful if you're thinking of buying any FlavorArt flavors!
Note on FlavorArt: There are many different companies that make concentrated flavors, everyone has their favorite. I've noticed many DIY'rs like FA because they are transparent about what is in their flavors, and proactive about discontinuing flavors if studies show their contents harmful (things like Diacetyl, Acetoin, Acetyl Propionyl, etc).
It all seems a little overwhelming at first, but there's not that much to it. I've ordered and I'm waiting on these flavors right now: blackberry, kiwi, black tea, green tea, lemon, lime, mandarin, pineapple. I think adding subtle amounts of different combos of some of these flavors to the Holy Terp mixers that I already have will make some delicious juice! I'll let you know how it goes and share any recipes that are hits.
**EDIT: I order from
gremlindiy.com just because that's what I stumbled across, but there are many other places to order flavoring from all the different companies if you search around.
**EDIT 2: I got a mod note for posting twice in a row in a thread before so I'll just add this here... I'm trying something different this time. My tank was almost done and I wanted to mix a new batch so I dumped the remainders in my old Kanger T3D (with some older remainders from last time). I mixed up a new batch (1/2g OG Kush wax, 16 drops HT Philosopher, 16 drops HT CouchLock, 8 drops lemon concentrate). However, I'm not going to touch it. I'm going to let it steep for a couple of days and just finish the combined remains in my old tank. I've seen from nic flavor recipes that steeping helps with flavor retention. Not expecting much, but I'd like to see if the concentrate's flavor (and the added lemon) persist any longer when I eventually hit that tank.
