I had no idea :)

So, day 12 i think of vaping, got the gear and some juice, but not happy with the two flavours i have, Rocket sheep 6mg nic , too much like sweets/bananas/custard/ i think? and a harshish throat hit, Tobac #1 from twisp 18mg nic, way too harsh, bitter and feels like i am about to cough up what’s left of my lungs.. i ask on the forum for advice and someone says go to the chemist and buy some VG and mix a bit in with one of the juices then try it...... now being completely new at this and not having a bloody clue, being like my children who never listen to the adage "daddy knows best" and now thinking i am a chemist i completely ignore the sound and logical advise from the forum, and proceed to mix the following.. measuring it all just in case I find the holy grail of vaping..
100ml VG
30ML Rocket sheep
25ml Tobacco # 1 from twisp
Now let’s be honest I have not found the holy grail of vaping juice and I am no chemist but serendipity is a wonderful thing, I am now in vaping heaven, vaping at 25w with half air vale open taking bit hits and getting my nic fix, smooth hits with a hint of sweetness, which I still think is banana/could be custard,have no clue, but when you go from vaping something thinking I am not sure if this vaping thing is going to work for me, to finding juice that’s smooth and you enjoy just keeps you on track and off the Cigs..

That was an awesome read @Nick

What does the VG at the chemist go for?

I'm so poor these days, that I'm thinking of "Watering it down" if it is cheaper. ha ha ha

 

[Nick]

R18 bucks, 100ml

 

[ZK1]

Bargain! Think I will water a bottle down a bit and see....

 

[Nick]

As indicated in my post .. I have no idea what I am doing.. I tried it and it came off.. you might be poorer if you try and it does not work.. I was prepared to throw it all away if it did not work..

 

[th1rte3n]

Quick question. Does the VG affect the flavor in anyway, dilute it or otherwise? Or does it just lower the nic level?

 

[Nick]

I can only say about my 1 experience so best check with the oracles. . It has muted the nicotine level or the harshness of the throat hit and definitely muted the flavour of the rocket sheep ..

 

[th1rte3n]

Cool will do, thanks

 

[shabbar]

in my experience i would say water down your juice in small batches , 10ml juice and a start of 2.5ml vg.

remember vg mutes flavor a lot but creates clouds and smoothness.

if you have a bottle of flavor you wish to water down i would suggest getting the same flavor in 0mg so you do not compromise flavor

The best discoveries were made by accident

 

[Nick]

That's what my wife said about me ...... oh, no, sorry,hang on just checked she said i was an accident she wished she hadn't discovered.

Grab a 30ml bottle of super "Intense" flavour juice (hint-hint) and add it to 100ml pure VG, stir enjoy. I've seen it. I've tasted it. It's magic!

isn't that ratio too much ?

been watering some of my old juices with a 3mg 70Vg/30pg blank concentrate. I find custard that steeped for too long needs this...

I think your nic. content(18%) might have been too high, but that's been cured.You never know what you'll stumble on to. Just another step on the vape trail.

 

[gertvanjoe]

We had some VG sitting in the cupboard and I figured I'd try it. Must say it does mute it a bit but made for a nice smooth vape. I really don't bother for clouds but the flavour is still relatively good and I just added another day to my tank Payday still very far

 

[SHiBBY]

With regular juices, definitely, but VapeMob's Intense range REALLY packs the flavour. I've tried their mango diluted to 100ml, which would probably mean 30ml juice and 70ml VG, but it definitely works

Ive been to Clicks and Dischem and no one knows what Vegetable Glycerol is....

SO where do I find it?

 

[Rowan Francis]

at clicks or dischem , its called vegetable glycerine

 

[BhavZ]

Go to the isle where dutch medicines are stored, the VG will be there as well

 

[SHiBBY]

At Clicks it will be on that aisle with all the little generic green labels with stuff like Potassium Nitrate and Sulfur and stuff.

PS: Here's a fun fact! Instant cold packs, sold in this same aisle, consists of plastic bag containing only two components: a little bag of water, and about half a cup of prilled Ammonium Nitrate. Upon popping the internal bag the water will mix with the AN and undergo an exothermic reaction that cools down rapidly, hence it's popularity and effectiveness. As it happens, that's also the stuff that puts the AN- in ANFO.

Moral of the story: In case of apocalyptic event, take cover at your closest Clicks/Dischem!

 

[BuzzGlo]

if all else fails ask for dolly varden glycerine

Ok cool thanks guys, I think the "Glycerol" part confused them.
