Ok do I have this right you want to add almost 50% flavoring?? If that is what you did I would say you way OVER flavored the mix. Can you tell me what brand flavoring(s) you used?

yes i want to do 50vg/50pg liquid.im not very sure what brand of flavoring i use. there is no label at the bottle.

50% flavoring is way to much. Add 80% more base which will dilute it to 10% flavor and see what it taste like. So as not to waste what you already made make a test sample by pouring 2ml's of mix and add 8 ml's plain base shake and try that, you can always adjust upward from there...

and base from my recipe, what should i adjust? from what to what... im not very good in percentage, could you teach me in ML.

I hope you are not using the supermarket grade flavoring. E juice need high concentrated flavoring.

I can teach you but only if you have a solid understanding of the basic concept behind DIY. You need to do some research first so you understand the basic concepts and terminology of DIY. Here's a great place to start.

My blogs will give insight into all aspects of DYI, from steeping to what supplies to have on hand to a basic walk through mixing your first E-juice.

Then read hoosier's blogs. These blogs concentrate on fine tuning your mix and give insight on additives.

Then read Boletus's blog's. These blogs concentrate on formulation of nicotine bases regarding proper calculations methods for figuring Nicotine concentration as well as safety.

Then read Ginger's book "E-Cigarettes 102: DIY E-Liquid". It is a book which I've contributed to that delivers an in depth easy to follow guide in the art of DYI.

after i do some research base on your advise, i found that my flavouring was local made(malaysia). that's why i cant taste the flavour. i have to find the TPA or CAP.

Hi Nikrapovic. You need to find out whether the local flavor contains any pg or vg. Or it is pure flavoring. Sometimes it doesn't have any mix which will messed up your percentage.

 

[1vapeatatime]

I am not quite new to this, yet I'm always running into roadblocks with my "speriments". However I can tell you this for sure. I use ONLY established brands of flavoring, and when I stumble I can almost always find answers at ECF simply by looking at what others have done with said flavorings.
Also, whatever you are trying is going to find its way into your lungs. I wouldn't even consider an unknown flavor maker.

That's true

i already ask the supplier, they said the local flavour contains PG only. so after reduce PG in my recipe, i got the taste already.

Great to hear that. You can try to mix with single flavour to test out 'how it taste' feel before mix with others
