You'll find it will make a vast difference Andy . . . other French Vanilla's really aren't a patch on TPA's Deluxe version, it is to me what sweetener is to our Rom.


Have you really mixed this with 40% flavouring xs2man?

Ha ha, No. It was 5/10/5 so still 20%. I clocked that after saving but before mixing. Oops. Better re-save.

That's a relief!

I've ordered my starter kit cause want to give this a go. But a bit confused with the calculator.
I thought if you had 54mg pg you mixed it with vg.
But looking on the calculator you have 3 things excluding flavour and sweetner.
Nicotine ejuice
PG
VG
Am I reading it right or is it that I've just not studied enough yet to make my own lol

bazzer343 it all depends on the final mg you want and at what ratio.  Even though your nic base is in PG, you will probably need PG & VG dilutants  to achieve what you want.  A 70/30 mix at 10mg will need more PG dilutant and less nic base than a 70/30 at 20mg.  That will use more base and less PG dilutant.  Just put the figures in the calc and see what it says

Perps VC (Notice change of concentrate for French Vanilla)


Blueberry mint (original recipe, but no flavour after one week, so upped the blueberry):


Blueberry mint, current recipe. Still little flavour, so added 5 drops to evod full, tastes minty, but little blueberry:


Irn Bru - Not tasted yet :


Yeah, I knew I had jumped the gun on the VC, but just couldn't wait to try a home brew, lol. Should have maybe picked a different flavour though. The only reason there is 30% in the blueberry is because I could taste nothing at 20%

Hi Xs2sman,

I had similar problems mixing, I was using syringes etc - but now I found the solution to my mixing .

In EJMU. now I always have '30ml' to 1ml in the calculator.

I count my drops, instead of mixing with syringes - a lot slower, but the results are more satisfying.

Start with 4ml, Blueberry flavour at 15%, then Menthol at 2%. let it steep for 24 hrs. - vape.

If not enough Blueberry, add a further 2% -(add 6 drops) amend your recipe, let it steep for 24 hrs. - vape

Proceed until, it gets to your taste.

If your using Menthol crystals dissoved in PG,it is very strong and at 5% could mute the Blueberry flavour.

hope this helps.

Mike
