How to dilute?

[doctorjellybean]

I've some 18mg e-liquid, which I would like to dilute to 6mg. Can it be done, and how?

For every 10ml of the 18mg/ml eliquid you need to add an additional 20ml of diluents (such as VG, PG, flavour) which will make 30ml of 6mg/ml.

What ever amount of juice you have youll need to add double the quantity of PG/VG to it, but will end up very weak in the flavour dept..

Thanks guys. It may not be worth it if it's going to weaken the flavour.

True (unless you want to PG, VG AND some flavour concentrate).

The alternative would be to get two more bottles of the same flavour e-liquid @ 0mg/ml nic and combine them with the one that you already have.

Alright, I've found a few sources which still have my discontinued flavour in stock. I'll be stocking up to vape while the juices I'm mixing are steeping.

One source is 6mg (my preferred strength) and the other 12mg. If I mix the 6 and 12, what would I get ... 9mg?

Yes, that's correct doctorjellybean If you can get some zero nicotine then your 18 mg combined with 0 mg would be 9 mg (which is probably vapeable to you? if you're used to 6 mg)

I find that I can vape a mixed bag of nicotine strengths depending on my tank/ atomiser. If i'm sub ohming then I want 3 mg but I can comfortably use 6 mg in a less effective tank (ie subtank or aspire atlantis or isub) I can go up to 12 mg if I use a nautilus coil (in mini triton/nautilus/silo tank)

Thanks Pepperty. My tank is a Vaporesso Veco with an Innokin Disrupter. 18 is way too strong, and it'll be interesting to see what the 9 vapes like as I've only been vaping 6mg.

I can tell if a juice is too strong for me, I get a nasty peppery taste and its how I know I'm due to lower my strength.

I started at 24 mg and over time (4 years now) I have lowered my nicotine.... I know that modern attys are more effective but its a system that has worked for me in the long run
