Could you vape this straight?

[mn shutterbug]

I ran across this site looking for something to add to water to give it some flavor. I was wondering if a person could vape this as is, if you didn't need any nicotine. If not, what would you need to mix it with? E liquid - e liquid flavoring, e juice flavors, e cigarette flavoring, e liquid flavors, e juice flavoring, e liquid flavor, e cigarette flavoring

Hi Call me Mike, These flavors are to watery and concentrated to recommend vaping straight. You can mix them with PG (Propylene Glycol) or VG (Glycerin). Just add about 20% of these flavors to straight PG or VG and you are set.

If I wanted to add some nicotine, what % would I add to get to 16mg?

Thanks Scuba

Oh no... please don't vape that straight!

Depends on quantity and what mg% your of unflavored nic juice you are starting with.

easy way is to do the following calculation:

Quantity1 (ml) * mg% + Quantity2 (ml) * mg% / Quantity1 (ml) + Quantity2 (ml) = mg% per ml

i.e.
5ml of 100mg nic juic + 20ml of PG 0 nic + 5ml of flavoring 0 nic = 30ml of 16.67mg nic juice.

Get it?

You can always download my calculator to figure this out. See my sig line.

Or, multiply the 5 ml nic liquid times 100 mg/ml to get a total nic of 500 mg in the 5 ml of nic liquid.

Then add 5 ml nic juice + 20 ml PG + 5 ml flavor = 30 ml e-liquid

500 mg total nic divided by 30 ml e-liquid = 16.67 mg/ml

500 mg total nic divided by 30 ml e-liquid = 16.67 mg/ml

Same thing, LOL 500 + 0 + 0 / 5 + 20 + 5

It is good to know the formula if you are trying to add multiple quantities and mg strengths together. But yes yours is easier with only one nic source.

Not saying any way is better, just wanted to re-state your formula in a different way for so as to drive home the math.

I always pick my target volume and target nic content first. Knowing I want 30 ml of final product at 20% and have 100 mg/ml nic liquid I multiply 20% (0.20) times 30 ml, giving 6 ml 100 mg nic juice needed.

I then add the other ingredients to the 6 ml nic liquid until I have 30 ml total.

If I want the same 30 ml, but at 12%, I multiply 30 ml times 12% (0.12), telling me I need to start with 3.6 ml nic liquid, and add other ingredients until I reach 30 ml final product.

This is why I really like the 100 mg/ml nic liquid, makes for easy math. It gets more complicated with 60 mg/ml nic liquid, you can't use your target mg/ml final product percent directly.

LOL, that is why I use my calculator, it does it for me, yes I am lazy

Dan, is it GUARANTEED to drop the 100mg down to 16mg if you go with the ratios above? I want to do the exact same thing, just wanna make sure the nic gets cut down from 100 to 16, I DO NOT wanna smoke 100mg :-(

It is guaranteed that if you use the above ratios I posted you will get 16.67mg nic juice.
Since I do not know what the quantities you are working with I will base everything that follows on a finished product of 10ml of nic juice, this will give exacty 16mg nic juice:

For 10% flavoring Add:
1.6ml of 100mg nic juice
7.4ml of PG
1ml of flavoring

This will make 10ml of 16mg nic juice with 10% flavoring.

For 20% flavoring Add:
1.6ml of 100mg nic juice
6.4ml of PG
2ml of flavoring

This will make 10ml of 16mg nic juice with 20% flavoring.

It would help to know what your target amount of finished product you want to make in ml is. And what % of flavoring you want in the mix.

If you provide those to me I can tell you exactly how much of each to add.

I really recommend downloading my calculator so you can plug your numbers in section 1 and it will tell you the exact amounts of each ingredient to add in section 2.
