Mixing by weight - calculator

[Jen]

I wouldn't even know where to start with that kind of maths! It's probably a lot simpler than I think though, all percentages right? My brain might explode, though!

I d looked at using scales in the past briefly but never followed up because of the density variances.

I got to say i really like this idea and with a measurement figure for vodka,concentrates and additives this could turn out really good.

Not really fully formed in my head yet but bakers use a neat way of writing recipes wherebye everything is a percentage of the root ingredient ( normally flour) im just wondering if its a good/bad idea to base recipes around that principle.(for example everything a % of PG)....thinking aloud here

Anyway watching closely how this develops

I've searched to see if there are any calculators that give weights as well as volume and there appears to be one called Liquix but it's only available to Apple users so I can't test it.

There are quite a few excel calculators out there which can be adapted but nothing matches the ease of use of a standalone program like EJMU.

At the moment, I mix by weight but have yet to find a calculator that gives me recipes in grammes.  I just convert ml to g using a standard calculator at the moment.

I saw Perpetua's post here with a recipe for her VC.  Looks like a spreadsheet but I may be wrong but I've checked the figures and it uses the same ml to g ratio for PG, VG and concentrates that I currently use.

Where can I get my grubby hands on it from?!!

I'll email it to you Lemental.
