Help a noob?-Sweetener

[JewelzBagz]

After reading through many of the threads in this forum, this seems like the place to ask for a little advice. I haven't actually tried diy yet, at this point I'm trying to reduce the nic in some of the 24mg ready made juices I've bought. I bought the TPA sweetener, but am not finding it really sweet. So on a recent order from voidmist I picked up a bottle of sweetener from them. On their site it didn't say anything about having to dilute it. However, the bottle says to do so. It says:

Dilute before usage
Flavor Concentrate PA
Sweetener

Sweetener - Void Mist

Can anyone advise me how I'm supposed to dilute this? I have plain pg and vg that I bought from liberty flights. Am I supposed to mix it with one of those?

I just drip the amt of drops I want in my juice ....I use clear stevia and tpa sweetener..

I only have flavored stevia liquids in the cupboard and honestly am not a big fan of them. I haven't tried vaping them, but figured I shouldn't since they weren't plain. The TPA is not cutting it for me, I'm not tasting any sweet. Hence, purchasing this sweetener from void mist that I don't know how to dilute. I emailed them this morning but have not heard back.

LOL, you're diluting it when you add it to your eliquid. Guess they put that advisory on there so that someone doesn't vape it straight... bet they'd only do that once.

Sounds like the "Flavor Concentrate PA" could be the TPA sweetener, just repackaged.

The TPA sweetener is not very concentrated, which is a good thing; it gives you more control over the taste.
I've added as much as 9% to a recipe... took a couple days for the 'artificial' taste to subside.

One drop per mL of juice is a good starting point, that's about 3%. Shake it well and then allow a day for it to blend together.

I wouldn't dilute it...just add drops and taste til you have what you want...

Thanks guys. The vendor responded to my email as well and said it needs no dilution also. Still don't understand why they would put that on the bottle. I was thinking it was going to be this big complicated thing like EM.

I don't like to add sweetener because it tends to clog my cartos IMO But I did try EZ Sweets and liked the flavor. You can get a free sample of it and I will post back with the link

I was thinking about it, but today I received my EM crystals and a couple bottles of Cotton Candy. We'll see how that works out. I now have sweetener from 3 different places-but with my luck it's probably all the same stuff! LOL

If you don't mind me picking your brain:
Do you think it would be ok to try my flavored stevias? I wasn't sure since they're flavored, thought I read that was a no-no. Plus, I'm just mixing little 3-5ml bottles trying to cut the nic in existing juices since I'm flying by the seat of my pants here. Stevia I have found (in food & beverage use) to be so strong tasting that I'm a little nervous what one drop would do to a small bottle. I find it really chemically when overdone and am afraid of that effect.

I just added 2 drops of the cotton candy to a 5 ml waffle I've diluted and now I'm getting a slight hint of "licorice"! Where'd that come from? :0

Another vote for EzSweetz. It's pretty cheap from their site and only .99 shipping. i just ordered an ounce today.
