Do you agree with my interpretation of this Recipe?

[Randym43]

I was on ecigexpress website and bought various flavors based on recipes from the Cookbook they have on the site. I just tried to make the Waffle Dream recipe there and it says the following:
7.2 ml of unflavored base of your choice
1.6 ml of Waffle
0.8 ml of syrup
0.4 ml of butter

all flavors are by signature

I got these flavors and put the calculator 16% Waffle, 8% Sryrup, and 4% Butter to a 50/50 18mg.

It was I would say just "OK" It seemed tbe butter was a bit strong and the syrup could of been more. Do you agree with how I read the recipe? Any suggestions for the future when reading these. I bought a large amount of flavors based on the cookbook there and recipes posted on this site, so Before I put on my rookie chemist hat I thought I would check in here. My buddy likes the waffle/syrup and I was gonna mix him some to try.

Thanks much
Randy

Is butter really necessary? some say it may contain harmful chemicals.

 

[Randym43]

Don't know... was just following the recipe, was that your answer my question?

Your percentages are right. You'll make a 13mg/ml in a 64/36 PG/VG ratio using the 18mg/ml 50/50 as your base.

 

[Randym43]

13 mg/ml? Not sure I follow?

 

[Randym43]

Do you mean 10 ml?

 

[Hoosier]

13 mg/ml? Not sure I follow?

The recipe you posted has 7.2ml of your base. If that is your 18mg/ml 50/50 then 7.2ml * 18mg/ml = 130mg. The total volume is 10ml so 130mg/10ml=13mg/ml in the final.

Forgive me, Im still clueless with how you wrote that, By reading the recipe, I came up with what I thought are the right percentages. Once knowing the percentages, I then placed that into the ejuice me Up calculator, input my nic which is 36pg/vg and dilute that to 18mg by using 5ml of nic base then the extra PG and VG as per the calculator and then my percentages of Flavors to make a final 10ml mix... I don't follow the 13 you have but agree is a 10 ml final and agreeing with my percentages. Sorry if it's not clicking for me.

I was taking the original to mean what is said and that your "unflavored base" was the 18mg/ml you posted. I did not see 36mg/ml in the original post. If I missed it, let me know.

 

[Randym43]

no you are correct , my error, so with what I have done I assume you agree that I interpreted the percentages correctly??

 

[Randym43]

If so , in your experience, If I take out the butter would it be best to up the syrup or equal amounts of waffle and syrup to equal 20% flavor, or just give it the college try and experiment?

I combine FA cookie and Capella Waffle to get a good waffle flavored juice.

Waffle 12%
cookie 2% I think I added a few drops of sweetener.

Your interpetation of the measurements were correct. And you are correct the butter flavor will come on strong when first mixed. Butter needs some time to settle down and blend with the mix. This mix needs to steep about a week to 10 days. The flavors will tone down over a period of time. So before making any flavoring adjustments give it a week to steep.

Just an fyi that their flavors are TFA/TPA if you're looking for flavor percentages for the next recipe. Sorry if this has already been posted.

 

[Hoosier]

Yep, ya' done good.

I'd set that bottle aside to see if steeping does anything for it and work up a new bottle with your adjustments.
