73 and counting..

For s&g I counted my flavors while organizing my stuff. I would have guessed 40, but surprisingly I'm up to 73. There are still many more I want to have. I am just getting my feet wet. This is really turning into alot of fun. Who here is in the 100 flavors club?

I had alot of struggles early on but am keeping at it. I thought I could create wonderful mixes without knowing how things work.

I made six recipes that had a bunch of good things said about them. This has helped me turn a corner tremendously. Some are supposed to be steeping but I'm going through them as is. They're all so good. I'm getting a better understanding of diy reading here, reddit, diyordie, and actually trying different flavors.

I'm not going to be buying commercial brand juice much anymore. Someone I met let me try his Officer Oinker five-o juice he had in a Smok V8stick. Holy Cow was that alot of flavoring! I swear I thought it'd be better cut in half.

My advice to anybody thinking about starting to diy is follow some good recipes first. Be patient and learn as much as you can. It is so very worth it. I've been doing this only a couple of months. The struggle is real if you try to wing everything. Oh and get good nicotine if you use it. The first brand I tried had the infamous "peppery" taste.

I'll never have as many as she has, but the quantity of flavors you end up with.... so sneaky! I swear I don't remember half of what I've purchased. I went to mix something a couple weekends ago, thinking I'd have to substitute most of the brands. Turned out, I had nearly each of them. No idea when I even got them.

Im new to DIy and love it. I actually didn't follow any recipes when I started. The best part of it is making up your own juices. I have made some stuff like Castle Long etc. But I still cant find a perfect match. DIY is awesome.

Oh my, life was indeed easier as a member of the "100" club...lol!
If we're counting the contents of my office freezer, I'm guessing between 650 and 700, would have to consult inventory sheets to be exact. (Yes, I've made inventory sheets, or I'd have no clue what I have and keep ordering duplicates...lol!)

Oh, most certainly! I have far too many flavors, probably near what you have, but my "can't live without" list is closer to something I can count on 2 hands. The rest are serveral that I do like, just don't mix very often, and way too many that I will likely never order again.

Happy late b'day @Teresa P!

While I'm nowhere near your flavor count, I am at the 300 level. I have all of them in a spreadsheet and in my ELR and ATF flavor stashes. Even being that anal I have still unintendedly bought duplicates. I'm blaming that on not enough coffee or too much bourbon depending on the time of day of the purchase... :facepalm:

I've got only four empties. The CAP Vanilla Custard is going down fast. I think I need the big one next time.

What do you guys do with the empty ones? I was going to throw em but thought maybe the can be used for testing?

Flavor bottles I only reuse for more of the same flavor if I use enough of the flavor to warrant buying a 120. Otherwise into the recycle bin it goes. Plastic bottles aren't worth the time and effort to clean them to me.

I did some organizing, updated my spreadsheets and PIFed about 12 flavors. Just sent the order for another 27 today. This will put me over 200. I enjoy trying new flavors and recipes, even if many of them are quite similar. It keeps vaping interesting.

Most of mine I recycle. I mainly only use 30 ml and 4oz sizes so the bottles come in pretty handy especially for all my friends who like to just bum juice lol.

I have about 24 OZ of the CAP VC V1.
Can't have too much of that.

The RF flavorings have good caps on them keep those and maybe the bottles as well.
