Ahhh, now when I hear the word "organic," I automatically think of Virgin Vapor. I'm not much of a mint guy, but their kona velvet milkshake is 2 DIE 4. Also currently sold out unfortunately. :(

They probably have a minty type worth trying...

Yeah best to walk before you can run. Thing is, sometimes even easy ones (like just mixing some strawberry in a 50/50 mix which doesn't really need steeping) can turn out tasting a bit yucky, perfumee. So imagine if you're trying to mix 3.5% flav con of this and 2.7% flav con of that..

hi valeriee, i got better results from serching 'does eliquid expire' but anyway.. having seen this discussed in forums over the last couple of years my conclusion is that a shelf life of up to 2yrs is about the safety limit. i personally wouldn't leave it for that long, but then i don't need to. i only make small amounts at a time.
As a starter for more info: http://ecigarettereviewed.com/e-liquid-expiration

It's me again I've read some article about steeping juice. Why the need to steep your juice? Does it mellow out the flavors? I love steeping my tea but my juice it never occurred to me :)

Oh I like that. I was an accidental quitter. Nice one that.
Wellll I was. I was trying out this thing called vapin and noticed that I hadn't bought any cigarettes for over a week and still had some left..... That was sometime toward the end of June this year. His many people do you know that can't tell you the day they quit smoking.....?

When I tried vaping for the first time, I wasn't sure if vaping would replaced my addiction to cigarettes but i really wanted to quit smoking. I've read a lot of forums and articles that vaping helped them quit smoking eventually. I guess it's just a matter of reassuring yourself that vaping can be a tool to totally stop or quit smoking :)

vaping can and is used as an effective aid by many smokers to quit, but really, in my experience i've found vaping is more about doing something that is far better than smoking. For many of us it initially gave us that cessation whilst delivering nicotine but the enjoyment of vaping tasty flavours whilst getting a good throat hit later took over.

but for the least troublesome way to quit you really need to experiment with different flavours and juices and buy a good proper juice tank (to screw onto your device) that you can fill up with the eliquid. my first eciggys were very hard to take a draw from, they were tight - like trying to suck mints through a straw. things have improved a lot since and vapingunderground has a good few help sections on this subject and an area for new vapers to ask questions and look through

i totally agree with that higher nic level. i think people see us talking about the low nic levels we use. but that's what happens after you've been vaping a while. a smoker in most circumstances is gonna need a much higher nic level than 6mg. my recommendation is also go high nic first and then reduce it rather than the other way round (i went went up to 36mg nic to begin with before i was satisfied. it was too high even for smokers, but it did me just fine)

Tapering is the key... U can't go zero like a cold turkey... It takes time,right equipment,right juice,right throat hit to get it right....and eventually quit smoking....
