It is so uncomplicated, it's not true. Put in what you have got, put in what you want, press calculate. Done. No locking of amounts etc.

To be fair, I think it initially looks like it might be complicated, for about the first 5 minutes. Then it's pretty simple.

If you watch the tutorial video -you'll find recipelab to be very easy to use - the locking feature is actually VERY handy when you suss it out.

for example - I vape 12mg - I know that that is approx 23% of the mix with 52 mg base - so add nic base set at 23% - LOCK
Add flavours - adjust percentages - LOCK
add PG and VG and adjust up or down to get desired vg/pg ratio - click mix button adjust how much I want and way to go.

Add to that the ability to save and create revision upon revision of a recipe till you get it right and it's a great program. Does need the addition of resizeable windows and a print function though. That and Liquix for cost estimation are my go to apps nowadays..

If you read the posts, I have watched the video. I just prefer e-juice me up. Put in 20mg, adjust pg/vg to desired ratio and calc. Recipelab needs some improvements, like being able to delete a mis entered flavour for example. Some tweaks and it would be good. I have played with it a fair bit lately, but I suppose it what you are used to, and trust.

There are always new things coming out.... All worthy of a look.

I use E-Juice me up, as I think do most professional mixers, quick, easy, acurate, ability to have multiple screens of the same recipie at different combos open, and a whole load of other reasons....

It is a permenant item open on my screen and used countless times every day without a single glitch!

Horses for Courses and all that, but thats where my preference is at the momment, after looking at lots of others.

You summed it up far better than I could Kev. I just feel comfortable with it.

Edit. Just had a play with recipe lab again, why does it only let you make up to 100ml of a mix, I wanted to make 250ml of a favourite.

Ooooooooh yeeeeeeeeeah. Maybe not many people make up that much so the creator wrongly assumed 100ml would be enough for everybody.

I am slowly starting to dislike it now as I put 2 new concentrate flavours in last night, forgot to put the title of what they were called and can't get rid or edit them. Back to ejuice me up I reckon, and there was me sort of defending it lol.

They were the points I was try to (poorly) make. The lack of editing is a pain (and quite a major point) I do make liquid in excess of 100ml sometimes.

A couple of revisions and it might be more user friendly.

Yep, it may develop into something good, who knows...... But for now "E-Juice me up" is a few streets ahead, but remember it is an established bit of software, and has had many tweaks and revisions to get to it's current form.

Yes, good point that. I shall keep it in my arsenal and see if any updates appear. I feel bad sometimes moaning about free software that someone has taken the trouble to make.

Hi Kev
Do you have a discount code as I am about to order your starter kit?

Also, would you say that pancake maple syrup would go well mixed with vanilla custard? Thanks

Don't do it would be my advice on mixing those 2 flavours Dolly. 

They're both very vapeable individually, but not so sure on together . . . but everyone's tastes are different and it might be the best thing ever!

Kev's discount code is: AAEC for a 5% discount.
