How much PG should I mix with my 10grams of menthol crystals?

Not sure if this will help you but I crush the crystals until I have 2.5ml of powder then add 7.5ml of PG for my menthol base. Makes it super strong and I generally only need to use 1-3 drop per 10 ml of fluid to be happy with it.

Hope that's helpful to you.

thanks wfo_ak. how many grams is 2.5ml of menthol powder?

Not sure on that one, I don't have a good scale set up here to weigh it. I just measured out into a graduated cylinder until I was up to the right amount after settling occurred. It wasn't much though, if I had to guess I would say maybe 3 grams but awful hard to estimate weights that small.

Should also add I am not a daily metric user, going back to my high school days and them teaching us a gram was roughly the weight of a paperclip so I could be way off!

A dollar bill weighs exactly one gram.

I heard that. In my time here on the ECF I have learned that...
