Hi everyone, i have made a slight mistake in my Vanilla Custard mix. I mixed 50ml at 50/50 10mg nic. Capella VC 15% DDL 3% EM 2% Now its been steeping for over 3 weeks and i tasted it last night and its ok but not as nice as i was expecting. Perpetua advised me in the Custard thread to try and use the Capella VC at 20%, So basically i am trying to work out what to do. I am going to decant 10ml into a bottle and try and make it so its 20% CVC Here is what i was thinking of doing U will see on the left my original mix and what i am planning on doing to fix this on the right so basically add 3ml to make 13ml of juice by adding nic 0.6ml PG _____ VG 1.4ml CVC 1.1ml DDL 0.35ml EM 0.06ml Is this right?

D'you know, I have a maths A-level (equivalent), but I'm rubbish at sums! Also, can't see your recipes - can you make them bigger? Or:
In EJMU, go to File > Print Image > Print to Adobe PDF, then click the box in the PDF, copy it and paste into Paint (or similar), then upload that to Photobucket or whatever.

Looks to me like you are adding too much DDL unless you want to increase the % of that too. The CVC will be 20%, can't tell about the nic cos I cant see what strength you're using.

If you have some now maybe instead of knocking the CVC up put FVD instead?

Hi Jcol, The problem first is that you cant do a 50/50 ratio mix (Because the additional custard is adding more PG). To do i correctly at 50/50 ratio would mean that you would have to make your 10ml to 25ml for it to work. So, the easiest way to change it would be the following... 60/40 and make 14ml to get it perfect. So all you need to do is subtract your original formula with the new one and you get this to make it... Nic Base = .74ml PG = .92ml VG = .56ml Custard = 1.3ml DDL = .4ml EM = .08ml equals 14ml total at 10mg (60/40 ratio)

Maybe hold fire on any adjustments until you get some FVD, for me FVD makes all the difference
