Diluting ready made liquid

[yesitsme]

Hi, I have bought 2 x 50 ml bottles of juice at 36 mg strength, which is higher than I like but I thought I could add a little PG/VG glycerin and make it last a bit longer. I thought adding around another 10 mls. Any thoughts? The i-30 tank I use seems to drink juice and it's not leaking. I used dual coil carts before this and a bottle lasted for ages.

Not a problem just be aware that besides reducing the nic strength the flavour will be diluted as well, easy enougth to add flavour concentrate to make it up.

What nicotine level are you wanting the finished liquid to be??

If as you say, you add 10mls of PG/VG (no nicotine) to one of your 50ml bottles @36mg then you will get 60mls @30mg, however as Charon says the flavour will also be diluted down.

Math:  50(mls) x 36(mg/ml) = 1800
           10(mls)  x 0(mg/ml)  = 0

Add the results together = 1800
then divide the result by 60(mls) 

= 30mg/ml

Hope that helps

36mg seems strong to me. I wouldn't be surprised if you were OK on half that. But you would probably need to add flavour, or buy 0 mg juice from the same supplier and mix that.

Hi,
I buy 18 mg menthol and dilute it 50/50 with PG to give me 9 mg. I bring the flavour back by adding some peppermint food flavouring.
