do you use juice straight from bottle or mix

[bearnut]

I have never filled my own cartridges. When you order the juice do you use it straight from the bottle or do you mix it with the Glycol and water? If you do mix it what is the ratio of the mix?

i use straight 24 mg or 36mg from bottle no mixing.

if its not unflavored you just use it from the bottle. just mix to add flavor or decrease nicotine strengh.

Thank You for reply - good to know that cuts out some work

I normally order 18mg juice and cut it 50/50 with pure VG. I end up with a 9mg mix that still has plenty enough flavor for me and lots of vapor.

I like to vape a blend of PG:VG

Sometimes I buy Flavored PG base e-juice at high strength and then cut it down with VG. exm: Buy 28mg e-Juice and then add 22% VG which makes 22mg mix

This makes a bottle of e-Juice cheaper and last longer. It also can make the flavor less because you are diluteing it by 22%.

To solve the flavor issue I might and a drop or two of DIY flavor concentrate. If the flavor was ver strong to start with I might not have to.

Some people will buy "Doublers" which are flavored juices with double the flavoring. They are made to be diluted without loseing flavor.

I am a little lazy, so I just order the type and flavor I want and use from the bottle...Remember, everytime you use juice from a bottle, to shake up the bottle first, because some flavors especially with VG juice seems to separate a little...
Later and Enjoy...

Straight from the bottle. Easy peasy.

Agree with Paul and Iam. My motto is alway KISS...but maybe now I may change to "EASY PEASY."

You can mix it like that just to save money, but there is no other need for it unless you are adding a touch of VG for vapor production. Just order a higher nicotine content than what you need a cut it a bit and save yourself some cash.

To the OP, make sure you are ordering e-juice and not flavorant. Flavorant is used to make your own juice and is highly concentrated. You DON'T want to vape it straight. It also won't have nicotine already added.

I believe Tasty Vapors is the only vendor selling "doublers" but I may be wrong. Doublers also don't have any nicotine and can be used "as is" if you want flavor but 0 nic as I prefer. Four ounces (about 120 ml), only costs $15. You can also order your own flavors by adding up to three different flavors and you can choose the PG/VG ratio you prefer. I think most vapers consider 80/20 PG/VG the idea ratio.

Hey Bear..
with time you will also mix...
do you cook? Mix ingredients?
This is the same but without the cooking.
Just try to jot down how you got to your favorite recipe...because sometimes we mix and stumble on something amazing, then forget exactly how to duplicate that specific vape we love.
