help needed with Red Astaire mix

[vapeguy]

i need a good recipe for mixing red astaire at 50/50 pg vg 24mg 

[chrisjw]

I just add 20% concentrate to the base.

vapeguy - try out the forum's mix calculator - look at the menu bar at the top of every page, on the right hand side marked 'Mix Calc'.
Put in the required details, click 'generate recipe' and you will have the correct percentages of all your ingredients to use for a mix.
You can adjust the amount you want to mix, the strength of your nicotine base, and the amount of flavouring you want to use (20% in your case).
If you register on the calculator, you can save the recipe to use again or share with friends - visit www.eliquid-recipes.co.uk

It seems a bit daunting at first, but once your first mix is out of the way, it's a doddle.......the calculator does it all for you.

start off practising with a 5ml mix......you're not really wasting anything that way.

What strength nic base are you using?...is it PG or VG?

20% is good ratio for the flavor, thats what i mix this at, 60/40 pg/vg. T juice mix everything at 80/20 pg/vg

From memory. 2.5ml 72mg nic base. 2ml red astaire. 0.5ml pg and 5ml vg. Not at home so cant check but im sure thats about right.

Edit: That might be 18mg though!

This, the calculator works out the amounts needed.
Then you just add the amounts to the bottle, simples

assuming its a 72mg PG nic base, i can only get it to 54/46 using 20% red astaire @24mg and a 10ml mix
nic 3.33ml
PG 0.07ml
VG 4.6ml
Red Astaire 2.0 ml
