ok, so to make 10ml at 70/30 with 10% flavouring you would need to add the following... 1ml Flavouring (PG based) 6ml PG @ 18mg 3ml VG @ 18mg This will give you 10ml 70/30 at 16.2mg HTH  That's fab thanks |

You'd do better to get a higher strength Nicotine Base really Jaysey, then you can just use plain VG . . . and up the flavouring to 15% as 10 is a little weak. Tjuice mix their ready made at 15% . . . . Thanks I just thought it would be easier for starters to get roughly the nic I vape . So much to learn  looking forward to more shopping |

If you bought a mixing starter kit from the Alchemist's Cupboard then to get your 16mg strength the recipe is still straightforward for Red Astaire: Nic Base - 2.22ml PG - 3.28ml VG - 3ml Flavoring - 1.5ml |

This..... The world is your oyster with high level nic base, you can mess around with percentages so much more  |

It is Bracken . . . but I'd always suggest making just 10mls at most to start with, until you're certain that you've got a mix to your tastes. |

Meant to ask with the starter kit from Alchemist cupboard how much could you expect to make? Don't worry I will read up and do my prep re:mixing before jumping straight in -but all sounds promising. Problem at the minute is I am spending a fortune on Juice and thinking long-term once I settle down at bit |

I'm totally carp at maths Bracken . . . but assuming you're wanting around the 16mg strength, then a bit over 200ml from 50ml of 72mg strength base. Plus your PG/VG and flavouring. I reckon on 30ml costing me around £1.50 to make and I don't stint on flavour, as I like my flavours intense. That's my rough reckoning mind.  |

Tjuice mix their ready made at 15% . . . . That's a useful snippet of information. I'm still experimenting to find my favourite juices and have got a couple of ready mixed T-Juices on order to try out (heres hoping), but I reckon mixology is the way forward long term and T-juice would be a useful starting place for flavour concentrates. |
