DIY liquid with menthol crystals

[blueguell]

Notice a lot of diy vendors sell menthol crystals. I was curious how these are measured when making your own liquid since I'm just used to sucking up X amount of flavor with a syringe. I really enjoy menthol and fruity flavors mixed, so if anyone has any experience with mixing these types of flavors, I'd appreciate some pointers.

I am not sure about that Maybe in a very high quantity, for which would be to gross to vape. Use them sparingly, and add them first. Then with every single thing you add, put the lid on the bottle and shake. They will mix better and disperse more thoroughly.

I'd encourage you to pour some PG (or VG) into a beaker or test tube, then progressively add menthol crystals until the solution reaches saturation. Carefully rack off the liquid and bottle it. You then have a saturated solution of known strength that you can then slurp up with a syringe.

Use this solution very sparingly! Just a drop or two, then taste. You can always add more, but you can't take it out.

I like my DIY menthol blend strong. But one batch I made left me with icicles dangling from my sinuses. I had to dilute it with unflavored nicquid of a suitable concentration to make it vapable.

Sounds like a good plan classics. Thanks for the tips guys.

Check out the forums, consider using etoh.
I started out using 5% +. I noticed that the effect increased with time/steeping; way too much!
I've backed off to using 1% sometimes less, and I love menthol.
