bit confused about juices

[Deleted]

Hello Everyone

I am bit confused about juices. When i was living in New Zealand , i would buy i flavour concentrate and mix it with my nicotine concentrate  50/50. I would buy a double strength flavour concentrate which was a flavour with either a PG or VG base , and the instructions were to mix this half and half with nicotine concentrate. The nicotine concentrate i have is PG based , 36mg . I have been looking at the t-juice website and was thinking of buying some flavour concentrates , but apparently i have to mix these with PG or VG and then again with my nicotine base. Can i not just mix the flavour concentrate with my nicotine base ? it is nicotine dissolved in PG so why do i need to add additional PG to the concentrate ? also i never had to steep my liquid before either , just mix them up and away I went . Can someone please clarify if i can , and if it is recomended to just mix the concentrate with my PG based nicotine base. Thanks

@alopezg1 I just use the mix calc allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/page/calculator it takes all the guesswork out of it

so i don't need to buy additional PG or VG to mix with the flavour concentrate and my nicotine base?

I'm new to mixing so don't take what I say too seriously but it depends what you want you final strength to be and ratio of pg/vg. I'm using 72mg pg nic base and mix with pg based flavour and add vg.

I also have tjuice concentrates and the are pg based I'm sure. Do you vape at 36mg 100% pg by just adding flavour to your nice base?

on the t-juice website it says : The concentrate has to be diluted with Propylene Glycol, and, or Vegetable Glycerine. The addition of diluted nicotine base can be added if required..

So i am assuming that the favour concentrate contains no PG or VG . I wonder if there is enough PG/VG in my nicotine base then just to mix it straight with that

[rednutt]

I'm not sure about that then. What strength do you normally go for? I'm 18 mg

18-24 mg

I have 36mg base which i mix 50/50 with a flavour concentrate to get 18mg

Ok so I vape 50/50. I'm presuming from your original post above you do too? So you need to add vg to your mix. I'll do a quick calculation to give you and idea. Back in a min

If you went 50/50 with t-juice flavours it would blow your head off, it is a very strong concentrate, I would stick VERY close to their recommendation

but if i add VG as well, that would further dilute the liquid.... i would need to acount for the VG as well

Ok thanks... it says 15% on the website , so i presume i should make up the difference with PG and or VG then mix that 50/50 with nicotine base?

I don't know if there is PG in the flavour concentrate or not though
