DIY E liquid question.

[Shaunbay2]

Im planning on making some 100vg e liquid. Is VG and flavoring enough for making diy e liquid? If so, planning to buy vg and vanilla flavoring then adding distilled water to thin in.

firstly vg and flavouring is enough, if you are going to add distilled water then it is no longer a 100%vg juice.
i suggest you dont add> 20% of distilled water.

Ahh ok, thanks. I screwed up my first diy. Hopefully this one goes as plan

How'd you do that? Too much water?

 

[Shaunbay2]

I think so and the flavor just tasted weird. So threw does out and went to buy new one. I think i bought the bake king vanilla flavor. Hopefully that works.

Oooh.

I'm no expert, but did you get pure vanilla extract or imitation? The imitation stuff is made of wood. And I believe either is mixed with some sort of alcohol - maybe letting it steep would have let the alcohol evaporate and it may have tasted normal. Just a guess (I've never used extracts for DIY juices before).

Then after, maybe add more VG to it to get the consistency back up?

I think its pure, but i think its pg base flavor, which i have no idea. Some say to do vg/pg 70/30. The amount of flavor is awfully strong and disgusting. So i have no clue about whether i should add the pg base flavor as pg mix or just flavor(17%)

 

[yuujin]

um. PG means unflavoured PG. not pure PG flavouring. usually ratios as follows.
eg. 50/50, assuming flavouring is PG based.

10% PG flavouring
40% Unflavoured PG
50% Unflavoured VG

 

[Shaunbay2]

Ahh, ok thanks. Now i get it lol. Cant find any unflavoured pg anywhere, so im sticking with vg for now.

 

[skythia]

where you all get the vg and pg ?
