I want to know whats ratio of good balance between base like VG and flavoring in general. Like 9 drop of VG and 1 drop of flavoring or like whats minimum and maximum percentage/ratio of flavoring to add to base.

all goes to personal taste. also if the flavoring is a pg base it will mix better with less plain pg. dont add to much vg unless you plan to make it sweeter. there is a calc misty posted in another thread that can give you something to start with. here it is http://www.todmuller.com/ejuice/ejuice.php
Many DIY recipes call for around 20% flavoring - 2 drops flavor/10 drops VG. It seems to be sufficient with strong Lorann type flavors but with lighter types of flavorings (ie.liquidexpress) it can go up to 40% depending on how you prefer the final taste...
ok thanks. 2 drop flavor and 8 drop VG=100%
Right! 2 to 8
..and that's why I always need that calculator to make my recipes!!

LOL calculator jeez. if i finally get e-cig and like it then I'll order flavoring and 30ml VG base and probably make a spreadsheet for formula for each flavor suited to my taste
That is the best way to go as each flavor does have different intensity and if you find something you really like, why risk forgetting that exact formula.

So far, i'am using 36mg nic juice.. target level around 18mg, flavor 20% lorann, and stricly PG for the rest.. oh, and menthols crystals.
I've never used Water in my mix .. and im not 100% satisfied with my actual mix.. what does water will change/provide to my mix ?
As for water, i've never used vodka or another kind of alcool.. did I missed something ?
Distilled water or vodka is just used to thin out VG as it can be pretty viscous..(I'm so tempted to put a ratio here again!
but don't want to confuse again!..)Not sure if you need to thin out your mix if you're strictly using PG..
in my book, Vodka was mention when disolving menthol crystal ..
And for water.. i wont use any then.. but since I think about it, i really need to find VG around Montréal.. I dont blow enough smoke with my 510 right now, its ok but never enough in my book.. i though at first that pg only would do just fine, but that would be a better experience if i was getting lost in a big cloud of smoke when I vape.

Yup, vodka or 70% absynthe is great to dilute the menthol!
If you can't find VG in Montreal, this is where I buy it along with all my other health stuff..fast shipping , no PST

Hi Key, Not sure where in Canada, maybe someone else knows

eBay is the easiest spot to get em but there MUST be a store that sell those, I wasn't lucky enough to find one yet.
On the other hand, we place 1 order on eBay and we can vape for the rest of our life, and the childrens of our childrens will be able to vape from the same stash so I think im gonna stop looking for a store

This is what I bought.
Lorann Hard Candy Flavorings 12 ct bottles Strawberry + - eBay (item 400030175248 end time Sep-06-09 17:43:59 PDT)
These are 1 dram bottles (.125 fl. oz) and you get to choose your own 12 bottles.
I might have to open a store.
I hope our grandchildrens grandchildren are vaping instead of smoking.
It's so hard to buy what you want in Canada.

I bought 96$ of Lorann's at Vixit in Montréal (Cake store) and I also have a bulk barn that sell em in Montréal
eBay is fine but patience is a virtue that I lack sometime, i want my new toy fast.. like right now!
OMG! How much did you get for $96.00
I know what you mean. My shipment was sent on 11 August and so far I've asked the guy in the lobby if it's arrived a dozen times and gotten the maintenance man in my office building to open the mailbox for me.
I have RY4, Marlbo (that's it was spelled when it was sent to me) and Kent, none of which I like, but they'll be better when I get the Lorann's.
I'll try bulk barn if I get even more desperate. Thanks for the tip.
