Cutting down juice with PG and VG and affects on flavor

[Kleiv]

Let's say I have 30mL's of juice at 8mg. I am now aiming to cut down to 4mg. The original juice was mixed around 80pg/20vg. If I mix in 30mL's of 80pg/20vg, will I experience a drastic flavor loss?

Sorry if this is the wrong place, I couldn't find a DIY section.

Your pretty much cutting it in half so it's bound to reduce that flavor quite a bit. Instead of adding pg or vg, why not get the same flavor in 0 nicotine. Mix it with your current juice and you'll have 4 mg. nic.

That's much pricier.

Yea, I guess if you already have the pg and vg on hand. I was thinking if you had to buy them, it'd be about the same.

Do they sell the flavoring or the doublers of your juice. I've added some pg or vg and a little bit of the flavor doubler and it's been OK.

What kind of flavor is it? A tobacco flavor?

I do have PG and VG on hand, but no juice that needs to be cut, hence why I'm asking. I mean worse comes to worse, I end up with some juice that isn't incredibly flavorful. The juices I plan on cutting are Black Cherry, Mountain Dew Livewire, Mountain Dew, and Hawaiian Punch.

The reason I'm thinking about this is because I'm simply a broke ... college student.

The vendor I use doesn't offer double flavoring.

Yes another 30 mls's at 80/20 will get you to your 4 percent with half the flavor. Bear in mind with a higher PG ratio your flavor might not be as muted has you asked the question regarding a heavy VG mix. As Swedish mentioned, it has to do with how strong the flavoring is to begin with to a certain extent.

Oh, I was thinking if you vaped menthol, you could add some menthol crystals to the juice.

Flavoring is cheaper than juice.

Good Prophets is having a big juice sale. They also have big bottles of flavoring. If you wanted to try DIY, they have 240 ml of 36 base for 8.99

For someone that vapes 4 mg nicotine, that'd last you about 100 years.

Here's their flavoring

You will experience exactly 50% flavor loss. With some flavors, that's not necessarily a bad thing. Try a small sample first and you'll know right away.
