Adjusting a receipe

[zeldamum]

I made some pear drop juice and it is lovely excempt it could do with being alittle stronger in flavour and lower in nic as I really like it.
My receipe is:-

32% of 75mg pg nic base
4.6% pg
40.4% vg
10% pear
10% lemon
3% banana

made up 5ml at 24mg 70/30 I used ejuice me up calc

I would like to go down to 20mg so I can vape more of it.

How would I go about this without upsetting the flavour ratio. Maths is not my strong point.

zeldamum the easiest solution is to make another 5ml at 16% and mix the two together. 20 +16 = 40, / 2 = 20

[zeldamum]

Ok Oneday thank you but you have totally lost me. Hate anything to do with numbers and still extremely new to mixing.

[rincewind]

so in other words make up five mil at the following %ages

Nic base 21%
Pg 16%
VG 40%
flavours
10% pear
10% lemon
3% banana

...and then combine what you've made with what you already have. The nic percentages of the two juices will average out at 20%

As an extension to that, if I have 20ml @24mg with 2 flavours & I want to increase one flavour, do I make up exactly the same, but just adjust the one flavour & then mix them both together?

Yes, that would work too. Just adding more of one flavour to your original mix dilutes the nic % and can change the PG/VG ratio.

As an aside, for those wanting to adjust nic % there is a 'nic combine' calculator in e-juce me up, in the tools menu at the top

Dont want to combine with the old one as I have vaped most of it, just want to lower the nic and up the flavour for the next mix, keeping the ratio of flavours the same but more flavour if that makes sense.

All you need to do then zelda, is enter your new ratios into ejmu for your new mix.

OK, in that case make your next 5ml like this

Nic 1.33ml (26.6%)
PG 1.02ml (20.4%)
VG 1.5ml (30%)
Pear 0.5ml (10%)
Lemon 0.5ml (10%)
Banana 0.15ml (3%)

That will give you the same flavour but at 20mg nic

[zeldamum]

I didn't know you could calculate just the flavours separately on ejmu. I have adjusted it.

Gone upto 26% flavour as 25% was giving out very silly number 0.58561ml as an example.

Thank you Oneday and chrisjw
