Adding water to ejuice question

[hissie]

I mixed some juice a while back, but it's too thick. How much water should I add to reduce the thickness?

Thanks

What PG/VG ratio is the mix hissie and strength? Also what atomiser are you using it with? Is it wicking problems?

(Adding purified or distilled water/vodka will reduce the viscosity, but also lower the nic and flavour.)

This seems to be a "How long is a piece of string?" question.

Surely the answer is to add a little at a time until you get the thickness/viscosity you are looking for.

I just slosh enough in until it looks about right hissie . . . . if you want to be more accurate, then start low (5%ish )and work up.

If you have PG I'd add it instead of water as it will help with the flavour. Start low say 5% and see how that goes.

Oops sorry hissie, I didn't know that.

Very few people are intolerant to whiskey or Vodka. I just thin with whatever bottle is open. Way better than water!!

I'm with robray Happy to thin my eliquid with vodka -- and I always have it in! helps with throat hit too

I am intolerant to all alcohol.

I add 20% distilled water to all my VG dilutant.

Thanks peeps. I'm not to bothered about reducing nic strengt. This is purely an emergency measure as I have *gasp* ran out of ready made juice.

I will buy some distilled water and will add a bit at a time. Sorry to sound useless, but I'm not a seasoned mixer

You might find Purified Water easier to come by from a chemist hissie . . . . or you can just use some boiled/cooled water if you're not too bothered by the possibility of a random microbe.

Which I'm not.

Thanks perpy. I'm not overly bothered by the odd microbe
