Resources and Tips for Beginning DIY E-liquid

Hi watched your YouTube vid last week on weighing the e juice seemed a great idea so went and bought everything I needed I think ha. Anyway just waiting for it to arrive and can’t wait to start mixing. I’m a total nOOb but done a lot of research and am looking forward to it. Oh didn’t realise how many ways there is to steep think I’ll stick to the old fashioned waiting game… And thanx for the vid on YouTube really helped :smile:

Did you get a good understanding of flavors and usage percentages? That’s one mistake I made over and over until I learn to research flavors and how they are used. It can save you money in the long run. Good luck on your venture!

Mixed my first few flavors and two of the recipes called for tfa cheesecake graham cracker… My problem is I do not care for coconut and even after steeping the coconut flavor is still there. Do all companies cheesecake flavor have coconut in them? Any suggestions for a substitute I could use?
Thank you for helping.

Try CAP’s NY Cheesecake, it’s the best I’ve tried and it’s delicious. Easily in my top 5 most used CAP flavors and almost as versatile as marshmallow.

It doesn’t have the graham cracker note but if you would like it in there, I suggest FW Graham Cracker (also a great flavoring) but be careful with it. A lot of FW flavors require 5-10%, their GC isn’t like that, start at 0.25% and work your way up. It can be rather strong if blended with subtle flavors.

Agreed, there’s definitely no coconut flavor in NY Cheesecake (Cap).

Personally, I think it’s kinda gross as a dominant/standalone flavor, but it’s pretty damn good as an accent to some caramel.

This is a perfect example of taste being subjective, because I think Cap NY Cheesecake is a good stand alone flavor. Though I do agree about the caramell

Not sure if this is the right place for this question, but here it goes. How do you submit a shop for inclusion on the resources page? Dashvapes in Canada has started carrying DIY supplies recently, and it would be handy to see it up on the resources page. It’ll be especially useful for those in the GTA - they do a free ship to store option.
