Help needed with the DIY vape juice making process

[Cathy4]

Thanks you I have been using the drop method along with graduated cylinder for the ml so i stay as close to recipe as i can

[Cathy4]

Thank you so much for all the help. I have added the flavors i have on my stash. I have been busy researching recipes and ordering flavors. I appreciate all the help so far and am still learning how to navigate this forum thing. I am definetly not very computer savy

Beginner's Guide to Using The ELR Recipe Calculator

The purpose of this post is to provide people new to ELR and new to DIY in general to help them get started using the E Liquid Recipes Calculator. It’s possible there are errors or points that have been left out and I’ll lean on the community to help me edit the content. I see the same questions over and over…people confused over how to use the calculator and/or how to go about mixing their juice. The following is a user guide to making the most of the ELR Calculator First (and you probably kn…

As for Butterscotch Flavours, this one is totally natural and delicious. I’d mix it at 8% , and give it three weeks’ steeping. ;

Welcome @Cathy4
You’ve had some great advice which I am certain you will take on board.
Have to say there’s nothing wrong with experimenting and making recipes up on the spot, I’m certain we all do that, but get to know the flavours is very important.
Find your sweet spot and mix for you and your taste.
Enjoy your stay here and have fun!

Ermm… Someone (wink wink, nudge nudge) said that Botanic Elixir is actually MF (Medicine Flower) diluted…

Botanic Elixir Concentrates (MF Dilutions, UK, PG-free)

Time somebody started a thread about these . They are actually 9:1 Medicine Flower dilutions in VG, and work out a whole lot cheaper than buying neat MF. As fellow MF fans know, the MF conncentrates are sooo strong that it’s very difficult to measure then accurately - a further advantage to diluting them. I don’t think dilutions assist with steeping time, though. The flavour still takes weeks and weeks to develop properly, in most instances. So do give them plenty of time, just as you woul…

So why not just say MF? grins
(I do appreciate they’re difficult to get over there though. Just making it easy for folks to follow, since they may not have yet found the other thread.)

Just a FYI, you should share your flavor stash public. This way these awesome folks can help you put together some simple recipes. This way you have a vapable recipe while you do some single flavors @ different %'s so you can get familiar with your concentrates. Its amazing how a flavor changes a recipe around at various %.

Oops! fair cop, Guv. I was, umm, thinking maybe I shouldn’t scare the newbie off by rattling on about MF, just yet Thought I could just kinda sneak the MF in with the cheaper version. * chuckle * Then , once she’s hooked…

Oh! and if she’d said she’s Americam, then I’d have said, “Oh! go to ECX and buy their dinky little bottles of MF instead…”

but she still hasn’t said where she’s living.

See ? There’s method in my madness.Hmm, or do I mean madness in my method? :S

Cinamon danish swirl is a great flavour just add a bit of custard away you go
