DIY Experience (question about sweetness)

[ChadGio]

I have been at it for over 2 weeks now. My goal has been to make a cheap ADV that I love. So far I have been going for a vanilla menthol flavor. I got menthol crystals dissolved in PG and pure vanillin from WL. I feel like I have found the perfect mix of the two flavors the only problem I am having is with sweetness. I have try adding a bit more VG to add sweetness but so far it has not quite done the job (too much VG tends to dry me out). What good sweeteners are available and what would be considered the safest for inhalation?

I use sucralose. For sucralose you want a liquid that doesn't contain fillers (ez-sweets or a sucralose from a flavor vendor, not splenda packets). Ethyl malitol is used by many. Some use stevia.

I use sucralose which I also get from WL but the original source is the Perfumers Apprentice. I use one drop per 5ml which is 0.5% for the dropper I use. I've never used more than 2 drops per 5 ml.

I think ez-sweetz is quite a bit more concentrated than the sucralose you'd get from a vendor, so keep that in mind when deciding how. Ugh to add (if you go that route). For small batches of juice, I dilute ez-sweetz into PG and use a few drops of the diluted sweetener.


Also, the smaller bottles (.2, .5, .75 oz) of ez-sweetz are about 2x more concentrated than the larger bottles (2 oz).
