Hi. I'm a DIY newbie oh, well pretty new to vaping also. Started vaping about 4 months ago with a pod device and Nic salts. After many unsuccessful Nic salt juice purchases I mean many, I found only two that I really liked. One was glas basix banana cream pie. The other was I think custard shop butterscotch cream pie. And ugly butter was okay but not flavorful enough. Anyways after wasting so much money juices that were disgusting I decided to try my hand at DIY. I got 100 mg liquid Nic salt concentrate in a 50/50 PG VG blend from liquid nicotine wholesalers. As well as a 50/50 PG VG blend for the base I think from there as well. Since most of the flavorings I have are PG based I also have 100% VG to make my juices 50/50. I've been experimenting with flavors and flavor combos always at approximately 15approx 50mgmg Nic salt 50/50 PG VG as my target for finished product. I have tried so many flavors and mixes but they all seem just a little off to me. I could list off all of the flavors that I have by all of the top flavoring brands but that would take too long. Anyways all of my juices seem to have more and a little after taste that make them not as pleasant to vape when compared to the good store-bought juices I've tried. Is there something I'm missing? Could it be the PG VG blend I have or the Nic salts that I have or is there another additive that people use in their recipes that I'm not? Any advice is appreciated thanks.
