Barista Brew? I just bought one but it’s steeping. It tasted light, believe it or not!
I think Barista Brew is a new one that just came out this year.
I actually have two of them. One was from ECBlends and the other is called Rear Diff from Boosted Ejuice. Rear Diff was the stronger better tasting one of the 2. It came highly recommended and was on sale when I got it from Giantvapes.
I’ve been wanting to try ECBlends for a while. I bought so much juice during ban sales that I’m feeling guilty buying more, especially since I’m learning to mix my own!
You might like Savage Jackman. The taste is unique and yummy. Kind of cakey cinnamony creamy strawberry. But better than it sounds. One of the few juices that I vaped the entire 60ml right away and ordered more of!
Real Tobacco Extract's Perique is divine in my Russian on my Danibox. Damn good natural NET
Wow, a classic flavor in a classic setup. Nice!

Cool, I got it saved on a wishlist to not forget to try and buy.

Monkey Spunk from Vaping Watch
Sticking with the custard theme from yesterday but needed my banana flavor.
Would really be in heaven if there was a recipe of Nana Gram by Yeti for the DIYers.

Mist's Minty Mallow [WIP]
All flavorings TFA, substitutions can be made as desired. Batch size is 10 ml bottle.
Vanillin 10% 0.20 ml } Substituting this for Vinillia Bean Ice Cream & Vienna Cream
Peppermint 0.50 ml ---
} Subbing for Creme de Menthe.
Wintergreen 0.50 ml ---
Marshmallow 0.10 ml (oops had that incorrect, edited to fix.)
Presently, vaping it off of shake and vape. It's okay, curious how it will steep out. I may play with this some more later on. Possibly may want to add Sweet Cream, add more Marshmallow, or Vanillin.
Use whatever base you choose. I'm using max VG and estimating 10% PG from the flavorings. Choose your own nicotine strength as well.
More often than not any batch size I make will be a 10 ml bottle size. I do this for two reasons, one it's what I use in my squonkers, two it helps me keep the math simple. If I want to scale the 10 ml batch to 240 ml, I just multiply the proportions for the flavoring by 24.
So 0.10 ml by 24 would be 2.40 ml. 0.50 ml by 24 is 12 ml. 0.2 by 24 is 4.8 ml. That bumps a 240 ml recipe out to something like this.
Vanillin 4.8 ml
Peppermint 12 ml
Wintergreen 12 ml
Marshmallow 2.4 ml
Looking at it like that I might consider quartering the mints used to bring them to 0.12 ml each. That brings each mint down to 2.88 ml for a 240 ml batch. Did not realize my over use of the mints until seeing it at 240 ml. Bwhaha! I'll knock out all the smelling people that try the heavy mint juice. Yes, sure I planned it that way.
===> Yeah, after about a day of steeping can taste I used a bit too much mint. Might correct this batch by adding another 0.10 ml of Marshmallow to knock the mint's edge.

Main Street (apple pie)
The Sauce LA
The Sauce LA
I thought about that one. They have some really unique flavors and good prices. I’d like to mix some of those too.
If you diy, you should drop by the Daily Mixing Thread. Lots of good people there that know a lot.
If you are liking that version of apple pie try getting the Synapse from the Vaporham Lincoln line as well. When I made my huge order they were out of the Main Street so I got the Synapse instead. Needless to say the very next week after getting it, I picked up 3 more. lol
Looking forward to making that one. My one fear is I keep hearing how it makes your wick.

I'll get there soon enough.
My main issue is funds. Been off of work since Oct. 14th because I had Carpal Tunnel release surgery on my right hand. Then I had the same surgery on my left hand on the 19th of Nov. So basically I have been living off of one hand at a time with no pay coming in. TBH it is hard enough trying to type one handed. If I had enough of the flavors I bet I would still be trying to mix as well.... lol

Yeah----You found something!!! You surely tried hard enough.
So glad you are liking it. I too understand dealing with vapor fatigue and how that causes one to be picky on certain flavors. Let me know how the raspberry one works out for you when you try it. Hoping you have the same experience.
I certainly did--on both counts
The reason I was so anxious to find a blueberry I could really like is this: I first started vaping, about three years ago, when my wife decided to try it to give up the cigs. (It didn't work for her. She couldn't get past coughing on the vapour.) They were still sampling at the time. (That's no longer allowed in Michigan.) She sampled a blueberry, I smelled it, asked to try it. (I hadn't been smoking for six years at that point.) Loved it! Decided to give vaping a try--mostly for positive reinforcement for my wife. But that BB faded on me pretty fast and I could never get back the "wow" factor of it.
Finally, I have
Turns out I fatigue fairly rapidly on fruit flavours. In fact: I fatigue pretty rapidly on just about anything other than mint/menthol. That's why Naked Brain Freeze always works for me: Sharper fruits and menthol.
I also frequently change flavours throughout the day. As soon as a flavour starts fading on me I switch to something else before serious fatigue sets in. That's why I like to have several tanks loaded and ready to go. If I later go back to that flavour, later that day or the next, and it's still not doing it for me I do a juice swap in that tank. I've got that process down to a science
Will do, though I don't know when I'll get around to trying it.

Thanks- I will try the Synapse next time I place an order at the SauceLA.
I really like Loaded Apple Fritter by Ruthless- very good apple vape as well.
HIC's Teddy Bear Custard from @wildgypsy70
Not sure what the HIC stands for, but it's soooooo good!
She's lucky she lives across the border, I'd almost marry a woman who can make juice like this

Good Guy Vapes / Nuport
Swagg Sauce Mean Muffin. Giving the Smok TFV16 another chance, and already had one of the coils that came with it broken-in with that juice. It's really tasty, but hits my lungs kind of hard. Perhaps need to give this juice a try with a different tank. One that's not quite such a cloud monster.
Boss Reserve - Cuttwood
Wow, an oldie but goodie brand. One of the first I tried six years ago when I tried vaping for a year or so.
YepBy Don Baldy? That’s a good one from him.
Mega melons by cuttwood is the reason i started diy.
Can't go wrong with Cuttwood. Been a staple for many years..... Now you got me craving melons....
I tried Tobacco Trail first since a smoke shop close by had It. Plus, Boss Reserve I think.
Hard to remember, but I loved Cuttwood, Uncle Junk, Cosmic Fog, and Njoy’s 15mls.
These brands seem different now to me, though.
We’ll have to get a recipe. Omg, that stuff smells good!

Peach Passion Awesometown-
The SauceLA
The SauceLA
Nice choice, got 5 bottles of that myself last order.....
Finally finished off my custard kick and cleaned out my tank. Opened a new bottle of Purple Powder Awesometown from The SauceLA. I think I'm now suffering from a sugar rush.... Boy this is sweet....
That sounds yummy. I’d love to try your juice too.
You're going about it all wrong. From what I'm seeing here, you need read the gear for sale or trade and pif threads. Then comment about how broke you are, talk about your sick spouse for sympathy, and don't forget to add in "peace to you and yours" shtick. That's how the resident mooch does it and seems to be working well for him...

We have a resident mooch?
I’ll have to try and up my sympathy routine skillz. So if you give people blessings, they’re more likely to throw free stuff at you? 
Thanks, I’ll let you know how it works out.
My own mix of White Chocolate Double Peppermint. Pretty yummy actually.
Space Jam- - Eclipse.
If anyone knows of SJ Eclipse on sale, please let me know. I love the smokiness.
best deal I found so far is $13.95 for a 60ml bottle
It's getting harder to find since they have quit manufacturing it.

Strawberry Lane by OM Vapors
Oh, update on the Serene... I finally got my full refund. So I have 6 bottles of the crap mix and got my money back. Think I'm gonna try to add some Apricot to one of them and see how it turns out.

Thanks, I love it and I’m not sure if there’s a clone recipe out there.

Boy, you are good, Pami! Impressive.
Once again: Jam Monster Blueberry with my morning coffee
My Falcon tank has pretty much been dedicated to Naked Brain Freeze, because I've found it to be a good go-to juice when vaper's fatigue sets in. Likewise: I think one of my Falcon King tanks is going to be dedicated to this Jam Monster Blueberry, to go with coffee each morning. Or perhaps I'll alternate it with Jam Monster Raspberry, if that turns out just as tasty, as @VapeJunkie has suggested it does.
This may mean I'm going to need another tank or two

Thanks! I was bummed thinking that I wouldn’t be able to get it anymore. I like Ripe Vapes VCT also, but the Eclipse has a better smoky taste. I wish I knew what concentrate makes the smokiness!
In a way, now that NY bans are prolly on again, I’m glad that I like tobacco flavors. But I usually add other flavors to them, unless I want a specifically bitter kind of vape.
These really are the interesting times the Chinese warned about!
