Oops my mistake. I received around 10g of menthol crystals not 50g. Which can make around 20-30ml of menthol solution

No problem bro.Probably order a few packet to keep incase they go out of stock again.

Which means for my case, probably gonna do this instead.

Cut my 30ml to a 4:1 ratio with VG + 1:1 ratio with menthols flavouring.

Means need to draw perhaps 4ml of the juice to experiment first before proceeding with the rest.

@randomname: Isn't that too little. 20-30ml with a 10g menthol crystal is very very strong. Maybe add 10 or 20ml more. Even with that, I think it is still very concentrated. It will kill whatever taste the juice has. On the other hand, I do not have any experience with dissolving the crystals with vodka, so that might make a difference. Try out small portions first.

Ooh sounds great. But i'd say go easy with the menthol. Don't wanna end up killing the flavour

Yea its gonna be quite concentrated from 50% to 33% menthol i guess. Hmm... you're right don't wanna end up destroying ur flavoured liquid. Dissolving 10g in 50ml is also suitable. Hey we can always add another drop of the menthol solution if its weak but we won't be able to fix the liquid if we've put too much menthol
 
I'm assuming you're talking about plain PG or VG rite? If so u can cut ur current juice using PG or VG. If you making your own juice, then it won't have nicotine. I'd suggest buying unflavoured PG with a high nicotine content if u wanna DIY ur own juice cos we can't get nicotine liquid in sg cos it is actually very deadly poison in its pure liquid form.

Guys, got a question. if i have a 18mg nic level juice. and i wanna cut it to 11mg. should i add pg to the juice? and if lets say i want to make my own juice. where does the nic level comes from? i mean, is it from the pg? kinda confused la...hahahaha

You can add PG or VG to cut down the nic level. PG for better throat hit, VG for smoother vaping + more vapour. Sad to say, PG does not contain any Nic. Manufacturer uses PG/VG to thin down the pure nic before selling it to you as the unflavoured juice.

Which means u gonna order from overseas, add ur own flavour.My advice if u're gonna do this is order the highest nic level u can find so that you can cut and get the best bang for buck.

okay, so lets say i got a 20ml texas 18mg e liquid from janty. i wanna cut it down to around 11mg. so i just add in the pg? and if the base of my liquid is pg, can i add vg into it? heard that the ratio should be 80 pg 20 vg or something like that.

You can add VG to a PG based e-juice. Ratio wise, those suggested online is a rough gauge.What i would suggest is to use abit to experiment yourself.Record down the mixture level so that if u hit the sweet spot, u know what to do.
 
oh...okay....will order some pg and vg from milagro. can't wait..THANKS!!! :) will review if i got my own juices up and ready. hahaha

Milagro must be thinking what's with the sudden increase in sales for PG and VG.

for PG - healthcabin is cheaper

110ml PROPYLENE GLYCOL USP(PG) [PG] - $2.50 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail

and they have 36mg liquid if u wanna get in bulk

36mg HC E-juice/E-Liquid(42 flavors) [HC Ejuice] - $3.50 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail

In order to get 20ml of 11mg..do this mixture

if you're using VG also...
PG with nic (18mg) ---> 12.5ml
PG without nic -------> 3.5ml
VG without nic (20%) --> 4ml

if you're not using VG
PG with nic (18mg) -----> 12.5ml
PG without nic ---------> 7.5ml

That should give you around 11mg of 20ml juice

Hi guys,

I saw a Glycerine at a shop that sells baking stuff. It is stated as "Extract from plants". No additional info on the content.

There are also a hell lot of flavorings much like the clear, pandan flavor bro randomname has.

I purchased the VG and a peppermint flavor for test.

I'm vaping no nicotine at the moment cos my nico PG is on the way. So I tried a 2/8 flavor/VG ratio mix.

Verdict: Alot of vapour. Good strong peppermint with a hint of sweetness. VERY pleasant.

So now my question is, is the VG and flavoring ok to be used as a e-liquid?
 
Probably...So far u ordered from HealthCabin yet?

Nope I'll probably give it a try the next time I'm ordering

For the VG, I don't see any issues but once again we don't have a way to verify how pure it is cos its not really stated that its pharmaceutical grade. As for the flavouring, even the flavours by LoRann is meant for baking and making candy so I'd put the flavouring in the same category. Personally I'd look for flavourings that don't have colouring cos I don't think we'd want to be vaping any colouring not to mention that it might also damage the atomiser.

Care to mention the shop name or at least where it is?
