just did a quick test using both methods, obviously without steeping but have put them away to forget about for a few days and I have to say (even without the steeping) the postmodernsmoking calculator gave me a mix that I am more than happy with. Problem, well it's not a problem was I didn't stop there I added a few drops of menthol to the mix and got a new flavour which I cant get enough of, think I might even have a bit of a nicotine rush because i'm liking it so much. I think originally I was adding way too much pg rather than vg.

The nicotine base is PG based but I dont know about the flavouring.
Can you tell me how you got the calculations please. I'm guessing it's something to do with there already being pg in the mmix to start with (nicotine base and flavouring?)

The flavour i'm using is black cherry from ecigwizard.
I've downloaded a new app to my phone called eliquid calculator (penguin icon) and made a new recipe, could you cast your eyes over this new and hopefully improved recipe to see if i'm on the right track?
Base nicotine 54mg/ml
Target nicotine 24mg/ml
Target eliquid quantity 5ml
Water percentage 0%
Flavour percentage 20%
Calculate
Base liquid 2.2ml
PG/VG 1.8ml do I split this to make the 70/30 mix? 1.26ml of pg (70%)
0.54ml of vg (30%)
Water 0ml
Flavour 1.0ml
I'm new to this and think i've gone wrong somewhere any help would be much appreciated. |

I decided to try making my first ever mix a couple of days ago and let it steep until now. The problem is it doesn't give much of a throat hit, much vapour or much flavour. I used an eliquid app to work from and the recipe is as follows:
Nic 54mg pg base 56 drops
Pg 32drops
Vg 13 drops
Flavour 25 drops
The nic is supposed to be 24mg
The pg/vg is supposed to be 70/30%
The flavour is supposed to be 20%
Can anyone tell me what i've done wrong to make it turn out so badly?

Hi all,
Since I Started vaping at the begining of last year I tried a few flavours but stuck to 2.
Menthol which is my all day vape and redbull which is my occasional vape.
I'm looking at trying some new flavours now and am looking for any reccomendations.
Thanks for your help.

Hi all,
I'm a little confused over the mixology part of vaping but would like to start to make my own juices.
I'm looking to get a good understanding before jumping in.
If I wanted a good throat hit would I be looking to add a higher % of vg? (70vg/30pg)
If I wanted more flavour would I be looking to add a higher % of pg? (70pg/30vg)
Thanks for any responses.
