I must have odd taste buds!! I really didn't like the £1 Vanilla Custard but have gone through loads of their Heisenberg! Just about to place another order for 100ml of their VG stuff.

For tank cleaning I usually find hot water does the job but for a deeper clean just strip & clean with hot water then leave it in a shot glass of Vodka over night. (Or Gin)
Thanks! Flavour really is totally subjective so, as an experiment, I've given the remaining half of the H/berg to a friend who's getting into vaping. I didn't tell him what I didn't like about it so we'll see.

Re cleaning, I use hot water only with several rinses and changes. This has always worked with my two Nautilus Mini tanks and the new subtank seems fine now.

Beard do great flavours but a lot of their range has tested for diacetyl, which is why I stopped using them.
Just done a search on this and it seems so, at least when they were tested last year anyway. I've just messaged them to see if they've changed their recipes since the tests were carried out and have shelved the juices for now. Thanks for pointing this out.

Cloudhouse have now stopped selling ready made eliquid so DIY flavor concentrates only:

I wonder if the smaller firms will go the same way with the new TPD regs?

Popped down to the local vape shops today looking for some DIY concentrates....4 shops & not a single place sells any!! But did pick up a different bottle of Heisenberg....



Similar flavour to normal Heisenberg but not as full on and more mellow and miles smoother so probably better for an adv, has a different flavor thrown in here and I can't place it! Driving me nuts trying to figure out what it is!! I think it's cucumber?

Also saw Zombie Juice in the local Cash Generators window, had no idea they sold eliquid, anybody tried these? £10 a pop so didn't bother as I couldn't try any but they're named after some well known & pretty expensive juices! Gambit, Castle Long, Snake Oil, Mothers Milk and another Heisenberg!!

The XO stuff turned up from Liberty Flights, haven't tried these yet but they all smell great!!

I like zombie Juice. I bought a bottle of their Heisenburg a while ago which I use often despite not really liking menthol flavours and I got a bottle of their Mothers Milk today which I'm really enjoying.

I'd recommend 'Farleys gnarly sauce' by bad drips as well.

That's good to know smile

First time I've seen these so I might give Heisenberg a shot and see how it compares to the others. This stuff I bought yesterday has gone!! Very moreish, nice & smooth but I still prefer the £1 Heisenberg flavour. Im mixing up a few different ones next week with the DIY kit smile

Michael Mosley, really? I think we must agree to differ.I reckon he's out-arsed by many other TV types. His 'Blood and Guts' series on surgery was excellent. In it, he had to try and fix a heart with a hole in it and test the effectiveness of hypnosis as pain relief against big leccy shocks.On proving how reducing body temperature reduces the body's demand for oxygen, he had to freeze his 'nads off in a lake in (I think) Finland in winter. I can't think of a more committed presenter offhand?

I watched a bit of the prog - it was interesting, especially the bit where it was found that menthol e-liquid was killing off far more airway cells than pina colada flavour.

Got it recorded for later.

I don't know who this bloke is but the program was interesting and well worth watching. Vaping came out of it looking very good.

No, thanks all the same rolleyes

Just watched the prog and it was very good within its limitations. I won't spoil it for you but it opens some interesting lines of enquiry.

I do vape and upon looking for answers to dropping nic levels I found this which was interesting.

Oh I watched the BBC program which was also interesting.

Box of goodies arrived today smile

Few bits & bobs from The Juice Cabin, should be enough here to mix up a load of sample juices and plenty left to see me through a few months. Premixed base liquid in 50/50 & 85/15 6mg, couple fancy glass skull bottles for my Heisenberg smile and various sizes syringes. Bottles were from Creme de Vape in 3ml & 5ml sizes to mix up a few different DIY Flavours to try.



Liquid & syringes:

Also worth a look here for a different method of mixing using scales instead of farting around with syringes, just picked up a cheap £4 scale off eBay:

Anyone looking into DIY I also strongly recommend mixing by weight using an accurate scale and a juice calculator. Takes 5 mins to knock up 6mg base/pg/vg which I then use for my mixes in smaller bottles. It is MUCH easier than using syringes.

Yep that's what im doing this week, I only stumbled across the video late last night after purchasing the needles! Still I guess it's handy to have them but the scales look miles easier.

Should save a few quid here, gets expensive when your using a sub ohm tank that gulps the juice down eek

Anyone in need of bottles - 10ml ones in a 50 pack are only about a tenner on Amazon. Bought them to decant my 100ml bottles into to make tank filling easier!
