PM on the way to you shortly mate just got back yesterday what an epic mission.

Yup agreed with @Spydro learning to get EM levels right has been essential to get a good mouth-feel out of my DIY. Had some fellas show me first hand so I use around 0.25 percent MAX. More messes with the flavor in a bif way and make things a little muted IMO

I am very impressed with what I have found on the Cape Town DIY scene. We have some great artists around just quietly doing their thing. Been cool meeting people not active on the forums as much now.... locals have talent for sure. Some incredible NET's I am blown away and excited for the future.
Oh really... Nice

Problem with JHB is everyone is so far away from each other, so regular meet ups is a mission.

We need a nice central vape lounge

Yeah in Cape Town it is really densely concentrated around the Southern Suburbs it is like everybody does DIY and is organised to the level of own labels unique bottles and a will to put out top level juice. The city is going to explode with the new wave and their new school juices pretty soon. Tasted such off-the-wall mixes now and all were good. No. GReAT. Only one really bad one so far but yeah bro the average CT DIY is of incredible quality. I started buying off mates now. Not shops.
 
So jealous bud I wish we had that sort of community here.

How much are the juices u buying maybe it'll be cheaper to buy the stuff from u and courier it up. Tired of the local juice suppliers not being willing to advise how to start selling juice and sharing ideas with the diy community

Well for example Bombies has a whole tutorial on becoming an e-liquid vendor and give away recipes so ine doesnt have to stick to local for good advice.

To discuss this stuff I need to pay up and become a vendor me and @Silver were going to talk this week but family emergencies took precedent.

Still feeling it out so IF I do get a vendor section going then hell yeah mate straight from the mixologist to the vaper ☺

Sounds freaking awesome and I'm looking forward to it. I will go check bombies out too. I haven't got time to go full out diy with a 5 month old and a 4 year old they tie up all of ur time

Yes before 9 years old kids are a handful eh looool. Mostly a hazard to themselves. My daughter has been getting gloves on and measuring PG and VG and reads my work notes for me it is really sweet :) And she came up with the ideas for my two most proud mixes too and she encourages it. Keeps asking when we will make another mix.

Shes not allowed near the nic bottle even with full safety gear I add nic first and get it out the way then she joins in and gets suited up. Really epic mate. Really epic.

That's special bud my boy has also asked to help me but he's only 5 I said when he is older then he can. I don't mix nic myself as I am scared he touches it or it drops on the cupboard by accident and he touches it so I am scared of it. Yeah they are a hold full but I can see my boy is getting more and more dependent. Amazing how they develop so quickly.

I get you mate only a year ago I would have been impossibly paranoid about a bottle of nic in the house.

Rather safe than sorry. Not a bad rule to have with kids.

There are some awesome local juices out there, but I always find myself spending more time with my own mixes. I am not a super experienced mixologist, but prefer my mixes.... diy has given me soooo many options it crazy.
 
I mix all my stuff at work, so no flavors or nic lying around at home with a 19 month old. Id be very paranoid as well, kids love to put anything in their mouth. Cant imagine stuff lying around for them to sample.....

All I know is do NOT touch TFA's Coconut Extra. Vaping that stuff is punishment for adultery in some cultures.
Im working on a tfa coconut cream at the moment, my venture with coconut extra has been really bad. But this one could actually work, will post outcome on monday when i try it :)
 
I tried a Pina Colada mix and I call it Islands. (30ml)
8% Pina Colada (tfa) (84 drops)
7% Caramel Original (tfa) (74 drops)
0.5% Vanillin (tfa) (6 drops)
70/30 split 3 nic
I find that after a week of steeping the flavour comes through beautifully. The only thing is (and I can't explain this) that while i was testing the juice every 2 days, I get head hits, if thats what i can call it, developing into a headache. Should i replace the vanillin to sweet cream concentrate or decrease %?

Yes I mixed the same recipe but with Banana Cream (tfa) instead of the Pina Colada. Also got headache from that.

Mmmm, have u had headaches from any of ur other mixes?
If not, it could be the caramel or vanillin. Just a guess
