I am not sure what percentage it works out at, but a 30ml bottle of concentrate mixes up 180ml of juice. Anyone work out the figures for me please!?

16.6666 [repeating]

[30/180]*100

I got that too for 18mg 50/50

What nic ratio, and pg/vg hun?

See, I really am hopeless with maths!! 10mg, 50/50 are the missing figures. I think it's around 17% but not really sure. Not really of any consequence, as both the OH and myself like the mix, so that's all that matters - just thought it might help the OP!

That was my mix that you stole

But yeah it has to be 20% and 50/50 gives me the best ratio of nice clouds but decent flavour without giving me mouth ulcers (too much PG does not agree with my mouth).  Was pretty much all I vapid for about 8 months, although I'm branching out again now, still mix it my the 50ml bottle and it doesn't last the month mind

But I am in the 'it really has to taste of something' camp for me to vape - half dead taste buds and all that so more sensitive types might like it weaker.

It was indeed my little love

I passed it around a bit though just like free love .

ive had RA sent to me don't remember where from but it was bound to have been from you sis I have had a few parcels now  but haent had any free love but I will make do with a cuddle when we meet

Yep,

just tested it, just short of 17% flavour

Bless you sammy13, thank you for doing what I really ought to be able to do but just can't get my head around!
Any way you look at it, 30ml of concentrate and the other ingredients makes for rather a lot of very vapable juice for not a lot of pennies - I'm a happy little bunny

Using 100% 72mg pg based nic - making 10mg @50/50

25ml nicotine

34.4ml pg

90ml vg

30.6 ml flavour.

I personally would make it 34ml pg, 31ml flavour

so just a tweak above 17% flavour

Well it is important to share the love

And what is a juice if you can't taste it eh?

I think it ran away when it saw the size of the task at hand.

I think I may need to invest in a scythe lol

I bought a 10ml premix Red Astaire today and have added around 5ml of my 9mg 50/50 nicotine base to dilute it as I found the standard mix too strong a flavour for me. What percentage would you suggest I start mixing the RA concentrate at when I start mixing my own?

[smeghead]

As the majority seem to like 20% and you've basically diluted your premix to 1/2 strength I'd say 10% would be your strength

Seems like a good starting point. Thanks. Funny when i tried the premix in my 306 atty the taste was just about right but in the Mini Nautilus the flavour is much stronger.
