Jim,

I got a chance to go to Make-A-Cake. Thanks for the info, they are right around the corner from Amazing that I mentioned. Their selection is a little better but they didn't have the droppers. Their glycerine, branded CK Products, wasn't labeled are vegetable or USP. Is this what you have used? I was hesitant to buy a liter of it.

I am liking the fruit flavors as a nice change of pace from the tobaccos and I have a new favorite. Banana Creme is great. Its like a banana flavored runt candy. May not sound like something everyone would want to be "smoking" or "vaping" but I really like it.

The Glycerine I got from them had the USP. It was a about a liter. I found it on their Sale shelf. The bottle was sealed, but the cap was broken. I got it for 5 bucks, and put a Coca Cola bottle cap on it.

Check the small print on the bottles. I can't imagine them selling anything without a USP label, since it's a food supply store.

I read on another forum (I lurk on quite a few and belong to the ones that hold my interest like this one!) that you should refrigerate your smoke juice. Is there any truth in that?

I was always told to keep my juice in a cool dark place. It stays on a stand in the corner of the bedroom, and I've had no problems so far.

Some keep theirs in the fridge. I've seen others asking about freezing it. I would have to have more information before I put my juice in the freezer.

And I'll tell you what I tell everyone else. The best place to store e-juice is at my house.

Thanks for the heads up on the caramel. As far as glycerin the official name is Glycerin USP, there is no such thing as Vegetable Glycerin USP.

If you are looking for clean nic juice this USA stuff is supposed to be good. Been meaning to get some.


But so is this (slightly more expensive).

The droppers are nice when you want to experiment. A drop of this and a drop of that will give you a good mesurement for mixing. Extras are nice to have around the house for when you get into the mood to try new things.

I'm having a hard time with finding a good flavor supplier. One thing I've learned the hard way is get tiny bottles to start - make sure you like it. I am terribly disappointed so far. (sigh)

BeetJuice, are you buying flavored nic juice or flavoring to mix into your juices? After buying some nic juices that I didn't like the flavors of I bought the Lorann's brand of flavorings and tried to salvage the bad juices. For bad tobacco flavors I add caramel since I really like the RY4 which is vanilla and caramel flavored tabacco. The sweet caramel helps to level out a harsh-tasting juice.

I also got a large bottle of unflavored nic juice and mix small quantities of fruit flavorings to make my own. By sticking with 1-3ml batches, you can avoid wasting nic juice on bad mixtures. Some don't like fruit at all but for me it is nice to change throughout the day. Fruit flavors that I had had good success with are: Banana Creme, Apple, Peach and Watermelon. I usually do a 10-15% flavoring with equal parts PG w/ nic and VG.
