Thanks for the replies, I think I will in future use a syringe for the larger amounts, saves having to count out 180 drops! I know it's trial and error and personal taste, I just didn't think about the possibility of different bottle tops being different sizes...doh! It's a learning curve as far as mixing goes tmg, we've all been there. At least if anything you've put too little flavouring in, which is far easier to fix than the other way around. If you mix the flavour too strong Mandy you just need to mix a small bottle of flavourless @ the same strength and use that to 'water it down' so you don't loose the strength of the original mix. Had a few problems in that department myself when I first started mixing as different makes need more or less added and I found out the hard way

I'm the laziest mixer/vaper ever. But it's a great solution.

Brilliant advice as always, shows what a paranoid first time mixer I am, not sure what I expected would happen if I got my ratios a bit off, probably thought the bottle would melt lol. Anyway, another lesson learned, what us rookies would do without this forum I dread to think..

You're welcome, tmg, that's exactly what this forum is for! Happy mixing (and vaping!).

Usually do half a dozen 50ml bottles is under 15 mins ... and that's washing the syringe too !!!! Just tell myself I have developed a trained eye
