Hello my fellow vapists, I won’t get too in-depth with my first failure at order; I went from thinking recipes were for like specialists and stuff, to joining a forum and educating myself every day.
I got tricked into thinking it was easy after getting flavours at a shop mixed (Decadent Vapours that have like 140 flavours in their liquids lol) so my first attempt at making liquids I wasted pretty much 500ml 3mg Base along with 10 liquids that were all like medium priced. It was a heartwrenching story and complete and utter loss. I pretty much poured half or more in and when I didn’t get the taste I wanted I poured more. So at the end, I was only left with half of 2 flavours left. Which was the Ry and Tiramisu, since they were very strong. The second attempt was buying another 500ml along with a couple of DV flavours to try to salvage the old 50ml bottles of single flavours.
Anyway, I am still currently researching for some more flavours to get at the start of next month. I want to have enough in my stash to be able to make some top recipes, but I am running low and so I was thinking of making some more stuff now, but the what can I make feature isn’t the best. I want to make some simple stuff that I know will probably be good and just let it steep.
So I wanted to ask a couple of questions along with asking what some nice simple recipes would be that I could make with what I have. I would like to make like 30-50ml of whatever I am making. I currently only have a 10ml needle and plastic bottles for measuring/storage.
Question 1: How do you know you like 1 particular flavor, when you’re testing it out, when 1) it isn’t steeped yet and 2) you are mixing it with other things? I am asking because I would like to be able to order more than 10ml bottles of things, but right now I don’t want to waste money on things that don’t pan out taste wise, even if they are highly rated.
Question 2: How do you taste test your mix if you can’t really figure out what it will taste like until it has steeped?
My Stash:
I have tended to like some berry tastes at the store. I also am excited about the pineapple taste, maybe the Bavarian Cream or Strawberries. Idk. Just something that people generally like. I know these all seemed like safe good choices for my palette.
- Probably 250ml of 3mg 30PG/70VG Decadent Vapours Nicotine Boosted Premium Base Kit or something (Which I don’t even know what means really when they say it’s premium or boosted??)
- Boysenberry (Flavorah)
- DX Bavarian Cream (TPA)
- DX Peach (Juicy) (TPA)
- Fuji Apple (FA)
- Golden Pineapple (Cap)
- Kiwi (FA)
- Raspberry (Sweet) (TPA)
- RY4 Double (TPA) (Not really that interested in this one at all, unless there is something really good I should try)
- Strawberry (Ripe) (TPA)
- Sweet Strawberry (Cap)
- Sweetener (TPA) (I think it’s just a non-Sucralose sweetener because it didn’t say Sucralose anywhere)
- Tiramisu (FA) (5ml left)
- Vanilla Swirl (TPA)
EDIT:
I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE if people could suggest (not necessarily the exact flavours) what type of flavours groups I am missing in this beginner kit. Like for example; you need some nut flavours or more pastry flavours, specific fruits or candy. Idk.
Wrote the PG/VG Ratio Wrong oops.
