Let's face it, there are only a few things we put in a bottle that really matter to what you vape in the end. I just made up 90 ml of a favorite clone in a 120 ml bottle which already had ~20 ml of old for the "old
juice helping new
juice" steeping. I used 3 syringes and 1 cylinder.
This is how I did it. Nic 5.4 ml. This one is sorta important. so I used my 5 ml syringe then my 1 ml for the 0.4 ml remaining. As long as I had the 1 ml in use, 0.9 ml EM, same for AP at 1.8 ml (1 ml then 0.8 ml), 10 ml syringe for the 11 ml of Ry4D, same syringe for the 14 ml PG. grab the cylinder and measure out 54 ml of VG and done. Shake, hot water bath, shake, shake, over.
I rinse my syringes between each substance. I only draw INTO the syringe. If I overshoot, well, into the sink as I do not want to risk cross contamination. From start to finish that took me maybe 2 minutes (not counting the hot water bath), which is longer than it took for me to dig out all the flavorings I needed (I keep them all in plastic containers in case they leak with no real organization to them, which obviously would be helpful).
That's MY method. Works well for me. Everyone should use whatever method they feel most comfortable with, and what's most time efficient for them. Just throwing this out there but 1% is 0.9 ml, so my accuracy is well below that, to no more than a 0.5% error. That doesn't bother me or throw my vape off.
Single biggest source of error in mixing by volume is the VG. It is viscous and making sure it's all transferred over from a cylinder rather than a syringe you can push to fully empty does require a touch of patience. If I wanted to speed up my workflow I should probably just pick up a 50 ml syringe and be done.
Will an inexpensive kitchen scale really offer accuracy any greater? Lab grade, sure, but a $20 scale from Amazon that is maybe accurate to 0.1 gm? Not a dramatic improvement. But if a scale is working well for your workflow why not, it's as good as any other way, including mine.
