I have some menthol concentrate, but now want to add some nicotine to make a "normal" vaping liquid. Do I do this in the same way as any other concentrate.
This calculation for a 10ml quantity I got from dot1 5 ml nic base (36mg) 1 ml PG 2.5 ml VG 1.5 ml Menthol concentrate
Could I leave out the PG and add instead 3.5 ml of VG?
I have heard the menthol can be quite harsh, so just want to check before I do it.

I guess it depends on the menthol concentrate you have, but yes you can swap the PG for VG no problem. I am guessing your NicBase is PG based ? Here's the recipe based on your NicBase being 50/50 PG/VG based and your Menthol having a PG base

My Nic base is actually 50/50 PG/VG, but I prefer a bias in the final mix towards VG.
Would the final mix be ready to vape immediately - as I'd imagine no steeping necessary?

Hi
I have edited the above recipe for 50/50 PG/VG Nic Base
It should be ready to vape straight away after a good shake.

Here's one I did which included Eucalyptus - but the Menthol in it I made myself with Menthol Crystals (crushed) 2.5ml and 2.5ml PG

You do just have to be careful with Menthol/Menthol Crystals Emmita, that you don't over saturate with VG . . . otherwise the menthol crystals can in some instances reform, if there's not enough PG to keep them fully dissolved.
