Beginner Here- PG/VG Ratio Question

[DebiK]

In reading different posted recipes, I see that some are posted with PG/VG ratios.

Are these just the preference of the recipe maker or do some recipes need a particular ratio?

Good question. I'd like to know this too.

It gives you an idea of how much flavor with PG/VG ratio.
If someone posts a recipe with a 80/20 PG/VG ratio but you use all VG then you are likely to need to increase the flavor because the VG could mute the flavor a bit.

So, if you used say, a 50/50 mix, would you need to decrease the flavor?

*Edit, I dont think I worded that correctly, but you understand what I am asking I hope. lol

You don't necessarily have to increase or decrease flavor. Some people like stronger flavor than others but it just gives you an idea of what you are working with. If you try a recipe and the flavor is not quite right for YOU then you can increase or decrease as needed.
