Guys and Girls
My Concentrate order got screwed up and no Menthol. It will get fixed but this is my everyday vape.
My question is can I use crystals and PG and make my own to get me through ? If so please someone tell me how much to add to 30ml of PG liquid
pleassssssssssssssssssssssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

PS I aint got fancy scales lol

Small tub of crystals think it's 5 grams into a 10ml bottle add pg to fill warm a bit shake it's very concentrated though so be careful when adding to mixes

[mark1316]

Babs I love you lol so dont use 20% mix like normal then say 10% 15% ?

Simplest thing ever making a Menthol concentrate mark1316:

Though I pop the crystals into a dish, add PG, dissolve and then draw up in a syringe and bottle. Saves persuading them into a bottle or crushing first.

Start at 5-10% in a mix, otherwise you'll likely blow your head off . . .

I got mine from Sainsburys they were already crushed very easy to use. That might even be a bit strong Mark I'd try 5% to start you can add more but not take away

cheers guys in the shops in the morning then lol . i got wee mixing cups here. 5g menthol 10 ml PG sounds good to me . i will mix at 10% and have a blast I like strong

[mark1316]

Well that went well lol . 70/30 MIX 10% Vodka 10% menthol mix hit the spot. 1/2 filled empty 10ml bottle with crystals added 10ml PG
stuck in ultrasonic bath with warm water . Shook the daylight out of it for 3 min then used it to mix
Hate to say but sharper than my normal purchased concentrate. Might just keep this method going but work out the weight for 30 ml concentrate unless someone has done that already ?

Maybe add a little sweetener or a few drops of smooth will take off the sharp note. 30 ml concentrate is just 3 times your 10ml 3 tubs of crystals into a 30ml bottle then top up with pg lol

[Perpetua]

What I do to make a nice, rounded 30ml of Menthol Mix eliquid Mark, is:

10-12% Menthol Concentrate
3% Green Mint
2% Spearmint

The other minty flavours take off the sharpness and give some depth to the overall flavour.

Which Green Mint do you use Perpetua , found several mint flavours but haven't come across a Green Mint

Health Cabin's robdelmar:

It's a way to go and with them only offering premium shipping I'm not sure if it would be worth your while. Hangsen make a Mint Candy flavour, which could be a substitute?

If all else fails and you'd particularly like some I can have a rummage in the obscene amount of flavourings I seem to have acquired and see if I've a spare bottle I could send you.

[robdelmar]

Thanks for the offer Perpetua but no worries. Had a look at the Health Cabin site and they list Green Mint as Double Mint/Green Mint, pretty sure I saw a vendor doing Double Mint, anyhow plenty of other mints available, was just curious as to where you got the Green Mint from.
As to obscene amount of flavourings I'm in the same boat here, getting ridiculous

apologies if I've hijacked this thread

[Perpetua]

I'm sure no one minds robdelmar . . . digressions are our forte on here.


It's certainly worth taking a straight Menthol mix a little further on I reckon.
