    Check my maths for mothers milk - by react

    Ummmmm........ Why did you put the percentages in the ML column? It kind of works in this case but only because you are making 100ml and 1ml happens to make for 1% in this case but you need to put the percentages in the percentages column.

    Mixing By Weight: Basics 101

    You want to get it as level as possible but I'm not sure just how critical it is. This scale is one of the few that have a built in bubble and that is one of its pluses. At least you know you have it in the ball park if not spot on level. Like I said, most other scales don't even address it...

    Am I at least in the right ballpark?

    Criteria would indeed be .01 accuracy, at least 500g, no auto shut off. I can mix up to 240 ml batch including the bottle with the 500g max scale, larger batches with a beaker because it is lighter. When I needed more than 240 ml, I weigh the nic. pg. and flavors in one beaker then the VG in...

    Am I at least in the right ballpark?

    I am a strong proponent of weight based mixing. I have RA an it is a lot easier on my hands as well as my eyes. Gently squeezing is a lot easier than trying to draw things up in a syringe. I did a tutorial and offer several suggestions here Mixing By Weight: Basics 101. Feel free to ask any...

    Nic handling/storing 101

    Hey Kurt, mind if I pose a question? I was usually pretty hung over for my 8:00 AM organic class in college so there is a good chance I am missing something here but........ While I totally agree with leaving a few mm of head space, it really isn't for expansion is it? I understand that vg/pg...

    The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

    May be just my taste buds but I use CC (EM) with pastries and it seems to go well with some grahm creations. With primarily fruits I tend to use sweetener. Could just be me and my taste buds.
