Blackjack concentrate separating?

[dagl]

I have a problem with some Vampire Vapes Blackjack I mixed yesterday. (50/50 16mg 20%)
The concentrate has not combined with the other ingredients and is floating on the surface.
All the other mixes I did are fine and a quick google tells me I'm not alone with this issue!

Is there an additive I could use to get the concentrate to emulsify?
I've tried a couple of drops of vodka but that's made no difference

Cheers

What's in the black jack is it an oil? I can see that would separate if it was? They should give you an ingredient list if you ask or mds sheet which would state ingredients

actually they probably won't have mds sheet, although personally I think all manufactured eliquids should have, it's needed for cosmetics and ingredient list is needed for cosmetics and food so personally I would like to see ingredient list on all concentrates land ejuice like to know what I am inhaling into body

Soon has I seen the heading I knew who's concentrate it was going to be,this is my adv and I have the same problem I think it's the aniseed that is a essential oil but if I give it a good shake it's ok for a short time.

I have never had a problem with any blackjack concentrate i have used. Not tried Vampire Vapes though. Def worth asking for ingredients list as said above.

Thanks for the replies. I've emailed the supplier and await their response....

Iv been in there shop and asked why this was happening to my DIY mix and why it don't happen to there pre mix but didn't get any sense from them.

Could be trace elements of Peppermint Oil even . . . Afro Dizziac does the same, for the same reason.

Though it's strange it doesn't happen in the pre-mix, their response will be worth knowing dagl.

I know what you're saying about Affro Perpetua I regularly mix that too, but this is the entire concentrate floating on the rest of the mix.

Definitely not good that dagl, must have a really high oil ratio.

dagl, drip a few drops of concentrate into a saucer of water and stir with a cocktail stick or similar... if the concentrate floats on the top, then it's definitely got a high % of oil in it... I would steer well clear if that's the case.

Thanks lairey I'd already tried a drop in a cup of water- it floats!

I'm pretty sure it's essential oil but I cannot understand why ther pre mix don't do it that's what baffles me.

Personally I'd be giving that one a very wide berth!  We know that oil in our juice can lead to lipid pneumonia, there are enough delicious concentrates available, with no oil, that it's just not worth the risk IMHO

I will be interested to see what they say to you Dagl. I mix this with strawberry and it's very nice.
