When you first read about vapers doing DIY, it looks a bit intimidating. You think: "No, I cannot do this, it's too technical and time consuming." The truth is that once you take the time to research it properly, you realize that it is not rocket science. It can be done. The time spent is worth it. In the beginning you are over cautious, afraid of making a mistake. But you learn from your mistakes.
After making your first few batches, you wonder why you never started earlier. It is so much fun trying out different recipes and tweaking them to your own liking.
You also awaken to the fact that DIY saves you a toilet full of money. And decide that there is no need to buy commercial juice again. It costs about R30 to R40 to make a 30ml Bottle.
You make a total excess of juice, thinking that this is justified as they must steep for so long. You must keep the cycle going. You just have to keep on making juice with this newfound knowledge.
When you make your first few successful batches, you feel so clever, like a "Mad scientist". You may even be tempted to believe you can become a juice master, and start selling your own juice. This is a different ball game entirely, one which requires serious practice, patience and good marketing skills in an industry that is almost flooded with so many self acclaimed "juiciteers". The competition is tight and it requires an enormous amount of willpower and dedication to sell your own brand of juice. It's tough to penetrate the market. You also appreciate the effort and time that juice sellers put into making marketable e-liquid.
You awaken to a new dimension of vaping which enriches the hobby giving you a sense of empowerment and control. It's awesome to chose your own Nicotine levels, VG/PG ratios and quantities.
Lastly, you vape so much more than before as you have a cupboard full of e-juice that can last you a year. You stock up on bottles of VG, PG and nicotine afraid that it may go out of stock or become banned by "smoking" regulations. It almost becomes confusing asking yourself, "Which do I try next?" Your desk is littered with many bottles of half filled juice — and you tell yourself: "Calm down, re group, and go back to basics".
For those contemplating getting into DIY, dive in, you won't look back! It was one of the best vaping decisions I ever took.
