Adjusting premixed juice

Hello. Been lurking just havent posted in a while. Just enjoying my KGO. Also got an SD Keyring for times when I need to be stealthy lol.

Just curious what others prefer to do...

I need 24mg juice minimum but my girlfriend likes 18mg max. I have unflavored 36mg nic juice in 100%PG and 100%VG. And 100% pure VG no nic.

Is it better to nic up or nic down when adjusting as far as flavor? Or does it not matter?

I was a much heavier smoker than she was so Id prefer to buy 24mg and just add 0 nic VG to dilute it for her but she makes faces when I say I'll do that lol. Im aware the pure vg probably doesnt carry the flavor as well as pure pg but thats what Im working with at the moment.

Thanks for any advice! :toast:

Well, to adjust 18mg/ml -> 24 mg/ml you'd add 7.5ml of the 36mg/ml to 15 ml of your juice.

To adjust 24mg/ml -> 18 mg/ml you'd add 5 ml of 0 mg/ml to 15 ml of the juice.

Either way someone gets screwed as far as flavor dilution goes. If you use pure vg to adjust down I'd say the flavor dilution would be at least equal to adding 5 ml of 36mg/ml nic base to go up, if that makes sense.

A different option would be to get some 60 or 100 mg/ml to add to the lower concentration juice. For 100 mg/ ml you only need to add 1.18 ml to 15 ml. Using 60 mg/ml you'd add 2.5 ml.

You could also buy 0 mg/ml flavored juice to dilute hers with, that way she wouldn't lose any flavor. Not sure how the cost would work out with that.

I'm curious though, do you both love the same flavors? Otherwise it would just seem easier to buy the juices you each like in the appropriate concentration.

Yeah, Spaz has it right.

I wondered the same thing. If so, it's a darn shame they both didn't fall for the same TV flavor and could grab the higher mg and a doubler...
