Increasing the nic in premixed juice

[aliscampbell]

I love a bargain and purchased 30ml of Steam Gunks Captain Vanilla on sale last month only to find that it is only 14mg nicotene. Tried it last night and it's lovely so don't want to use it up quickly just for the nicotene.

I have 72mg nic and worked how much to add using the mix calculator.  Did search for the answer but couldn't find it in any threads. After adding the nicotene, does it need to steep again?

Probably doesn't need any more steeping. A good shake and mix will suffice. You don't mention how much you're increasing the nic level, but it might be worth trying it out as it is? If you're only taking it up to say 16mg or 18mg, you may find the 14mg is adequate.

It's was hard to put down when I tried it last night, but not sure if it was the lack of nic or the flavour. Would like to take it upto 18mg. Thanks for responding remnant

How much 72mg base do you need to add? If it's just a splash, I'd go for it.

Then again, I vaped some 10mg all night once without knowing.... (when I was on 18mg)....

I'm thinking you need to add about 2.8-2.9 ml into each 10ml to up your nic to 18mg, so you'll be decreasing your flavour by around 22%, only you can decide if its strong enough to take that much dilution aliscampbell? I would with Pluid, snake oil or RA, but Custard I wouldn't be too sure.
Why not take 5ml juice, add 1.4 ml nic base and give it a good shake and see before you go the whole hog?

2.6 ml although might be less now I have had 2 mini protanks full

oh maybe got my maths wrong?poochops I worked out how much was nic was needed for 30ml at 18mg minus how much was put in for 30 ml at 14mg. First time using the mix calculator so maybe got that wrong?

That can't be right...

Upping from 14mg to 18mg will be hardly anything.

My calculator is on my other computer though....

(in my head, I'd say under 1/2ml...)

What did it say, as I think that's the correct logic.

No, it's my maths that's completely arse about face, Sorry  ???
Just over half a mil per 10mls as djs and yourself got to! Sorry it's been a looong day! I'd add that much and just go for it, you probably won't notice the difference in flavour but the nic will be better for you.
4/72x100=5.5% or .55ml in 10ml
