Is it TMI to ask if Rabbit requires either FA cherry, grape, blackberry, mad fruit, or bilberry? These are my short list of flavors I'm avoiding until I buy them in original factory packaging to confirm whether I have bad batches or a broken taste perception.

no, optional but ideal, no, yes, and no - in that order. :)

WOW, I did the same. Asked for my order to be cancelled and my order shipped with tracking numbers a couple hours later. Crazy how this worked out. I think I'll take your advice and try bullcity next time.

Start with that ejuice calculator you like and try one of the simpler recipes. If you run into any trouble, you can always send me a PM here (click my avatar on the left and choose "start a conversation"). I'm happy to help. The DIY forum here is full of really helpful people, and I know some use that same calculator.

I'm glad to hear that. Now I can call you my diy sifu . I will contact you soon.

I don't use calculators or scales. I usually make small batches like this. I use droppers that produce 33 drops/ml. Then 1 drop of flavoring in 6ml base = 0.5%, or 1 drop in 12ml base = 0.25%, etc. That keeps it easy for me.

For my favorite recipes, especially if they're complicated, I mix a bottle of just the flavorings, so I can easily make bottles of juice later without getting out all my flavorings to mix again. Like this: http://vapingunderground.com/threads/how-to-mix-small-batches-of-complex-recipes.1980/ .

Good advise and thanks for the link.

Hi guys! I did it! I did not fear and I walked that plank on the plate ship! All the way! It's one of the best walks I've ever had. Pirate Truffles is an excellent nice Spicy (like real cocoa from Mexico, if you've ever had the pleasure of trying) sweet rum truffle with coconut. It is so good! I used to have a friend who visited his mom yearly in Mexico and he'd bring back bars of hard chocolate that we ground down to make the best Mexican cocoa. I am not a big one for chocolate type vapes, but guys this takes me back to that Mexican chocolate I no longer get! Hot damn HIC, thank you MILLIONS!

If your looking for a sweet chocolate vape this isn't it. This is like authentic Mexican chocolate rum truffle. It's not bitter. It's nice and rich and deep, so divine!

I do the same. It is just so much easier & I only make small amounts because I am always trying something new. Using syringes is a mess to clean up and no reason to spend money on weight scales when this works just fine for mixing just for me!

New today at HIC's Mixes : Rabbit Cereal
View attachment 21047
"As fruity-cereal fans know, the Rabbit craves different flavors than the Toucan. This recipe is a flavor-match to the Rabbit's favorite cereal, right out of the box. This recipe uses FlavourArt flavorings plus one from The Flavor Apprentice."


I am amazed FA flavorings can so perfectly match the flavors of junk food wholesome breakfast cereal. Until I refreshed my memory with a box of Trix, I didn't realize it's so different from Froot Loops. For total Rabbit bliss, vape this while muching from a box of Trix. You will not find a more accurate flavor match anywhere.
Trix are for kids you silly rabbit!

Oh, I'm so glad you finally made that one, @Daintanee - and I appreciate your colorful description. :)

I was kicking myself the other day with my ECX order. The 30% sale was nice, but DOH forgot the marzipan and they don't do changes once you hit the submit button.

Hi Everyone,

My first post to this great place. I am thankful to God that I found the right place with so many great people along with their free excellent helpful advises. I can't express my happiness in words and don't have enough words to gratitude @HeadInClouds HIC, for all his efforts (in all manners) to help people STOP SMOKING. THANK YOU SO MUCH @HeadInClouds HIC (and all others too).

@HeadInClouds I bought couple of recipes from your store https://gumroad.com/hic but missing some very important one which are following

1 HIC's Chinese Almond Cookie
2 HIC's Chocolate Raspberry Torte
3 HIC's Linzertorte Cookies
4 HIC's Hazelnut Pralines n Cream
5 HIC's Orange Blueberry Cheesecake
6 HIC's Pink Grapefruit Sweets
7 HIC's English Allsorts
8 HIC's Cinnamon Dolce Latte
9 HIC's Shamrock Shake
10 HIC's Caramel Macchiato
11 HIC's Peppermint Buttercrunch
12 HIC's Corpse Reviver

Could you please check is there something wrong, why I am missing all those (especially I love Orange Blueberry Cheesecake and Chinese Almond Cookie) ?

Thanks a lot

new today at HIC's Mixes : Gooey Coconut Cookies
p Gooey Coconut Cookies 200.jpg
"Sweet, gooey, coconut cookies. This tastes like macaroons made with that sweetened coconut you buy in a bag - sweet from the moment the vapor hits your tongue, all the way through the lingering exhale. This is a new breakthrough in coconut vapes! This recipe uses only FlavourArt flavorings, including their new "Joy" flavor."

I've made a lot of great-tasting coconut recipes, but the perfect sweet coconut cookie has not been possible until now. Finally, thanks to FA's new Joy flavor, we can vape sweet coconut with none of the dry "husk" effect. This is the coconut cookie flavor I've wanted since I first vaped coconut.

Having some fun with the Kaktus Collection. About Desert Camouflage, under what conditions do some people taste cinnamon? I'd like to coax some of that if possible... My experience was the interesting and bright fruit taste, 25/75 - DC's @ .4 ohms. It's a flavor that was previously only known to my nose, and now I can vape it. I'll be premixing this for spiking other future recipes, in the same way I'd use a splash of apple to sweeten a recipe, for starters (ntm branching out with Kaktus). May as well be a new flavor!

Thanks @HeadInClouds for posting a recipe with a new FA flavor (joy) so quickly, you rock. Again.
Who has Joy in stock?
Start at BCV... I see of the 3 new flavors, "Joy" is OOS as of only a few days ago, the others are available

Everyone in Europe, and nobody in the U.S. at the moment. Keep your eye on bullcityvapor, who already sold out one batch and will likely be back in stock before anyone else.

I don't know if it takes certain "conditions", but I think lime is causing that. Some people get hints of cinnamon from FA Lemon - I've never personally been able taste it with that one. I don't know how the citrus-makes-cinnamon flavor illusion works, but I have read about that with foods before, so it's not just a vape thing. (you can always cheat and add cinnamon flavor; I did with some lemon recipes to experience what others were tasting lol)

About Joy... I have many not-quite-complete recipes that have accumulated in my "try again someday" file over the past nearly 2 years, all due to lack of a finishing touch. Joy is turning out to be the missing magic key for a number of them. I think we'll all find many uses for this flavoring!

Mixed it up a little bit ago! Can hardly wait. :)

I just ordered 2 10ml bottles from Flavourart site. I notice two new e-motions flavour, Glory and Storm (both tobacco enhancer flavours) Do you have any plans on making recipes for these two new flavours?

Certainly not any time soon! Glory and Storm are both tobacco blends that many (most?) people would use standalone. I described them here:

New today at HIC's Mixes: Southern Charm
p Southern Charm Blend 200.jpg
"Sweet, bright, refreshing flavors reminiscent of a well-known Southern liqueur. Juicy orange-peach is sweetened with honey bourbon, then mildly spiced. The honey and spice flavors are provided by mild tobacco blends, which give a subtle backdrop of complex, smooth tobacco. A short ingredient list, simple measurements, and a couple flavor variations are detailed to cater to your preferences. Kick back and relax with this one. This recipe uses FlavourArt flavorings and The Flavor Apprentice's Kentucky Bourbon flavor."

This is a great example of premium flavor from a fairly simple recipe - and using FA tobaccos for non-tobacco flavors like honey. The orange-peach is so summery-bright, even I like this with a little menthol (which is totally optional!)

Ooh, you should turn that off. What happens is the scammers go after your primary mode of payment first. When that's not enough to cover what they're scamming you for, Paypal takes the rest out of your checking. Seen it happen so many times. And they don't always fix it - there's some kind of loophole.

Hi, I am trying to make one flavor bottle premix (combination of different flavors as described by HIC for instance HIC's Mixes: Southern Charm) so how you guys normally do for 5ml bottle? It will save a lot of time and just take flavor bottle, mix specified % in pg/vg/nic and ready to vape.

What I am doing right now is using Ejuice Me UP calculator and putting recipe in it. say 200ml (total recipe size), I subtract PV/VG and NIC and rest will be the flavors (by adding all flavors in one bottle).

So Could someone please advise me, is there any other good way to make premix flavor? Your thought / advise will be appreciated (specially @HeadInClouds if you can put some light on it)

Thanks everyone in advance.

There's a thread on here somewhere about making flavor bases. But what I do usually is just take the recipe and make a base of that using the percentage of each flavor as mls. You just need to keep the proportions the same, and that's a fast way of doing it if you have a complex recipe with a lot of different proportions. Then just take that base and use it as a single flavor percentage in your nic base.

@AmandaD Thanks for the reply and I understand now how to play with premix flavoring. By any chance do you have any Strawberry Custard recipe? like Dr. Crimmy's Strawberry Overdose? Thanks

I have almost no clone recipes! Probably because once I discovered HIC's recipes I liked them better than 98% of the juice I ever purchased :) If you go to the recipes section, though, you'll find at least three threads on clone recipes - see if you can find what you're looking for over there!
