OK for example I have been reading the recipes on hear and some sound really good that I would want to try them. But is seems that 95% of them in percentages. 15% butterscotch 12% chocolate 10%brandy. As opposed to 30 drops butterscotch, 20 drops chocolate, etc Does mixing premixed flavors need to steep/meld together or are they good from jump street? Starting out brand new and not even knowing if VP is right for me I don't want to invest TOO HEAVY. But am willing to buy a couple different flavors to mix and match. But not sure how the drop thing would do. Maybe if I buy some extra bottles then mix a couple together in another bottle????

Thanks Again!!

Hey man, give me your address and I'll send you some professional flavors to try before you start playing around with this, come up with a few nasty flavors and give up completely.
I'm just getting into the DIY thing as of yesterday and like your drops idea. It's exactly what I was looking for today after a bunch of trial and error. I see an atty or 2 would be nice instead of tanks full that need more flavoring. I'm going to order them real soon.
I'm going to watch this thread for answers but in the meantime PM me with your address. I live up above Easton in the Slate Belt.

I just sent you maybe 7 bottles of different flavors. I was in Philly this morning. I should have mailed them from there.

Enjoy :)

Ok, so now that I used the Zip program I downloaded thanks to ncvaping to open the calculator. I put some juice together : bacon :), Earl Grey Tea, Grape with a couple drops of sweetener, pizza :), black cherry, absinthe, and rum & cola. I mixed it 70/30 which was 15% .75ml flavor, 55% 2.5ml pg, and 30% vg. These were 5ml mixes. I haven't tried any yet but I have some atomizers coming for that. Turns out a member here owns RTD Vapor and lives in my little hometown. He's going to deliver my order I placed today to my door. How cool is that !!! :D

Hey Scotsman. I'm just getting into the DIY also. I have 3 different calculators, but IMHO the easiest is Easy E-Juice Recipe Creator (forgot where, but I googled it) simple to use, you put in the % till it adds up to 100% (changes the nic level as you do), put in how much you want (3ml, 5ml, etc) and when you calculate it gives you both ml AND drops. I find this very helpful, as you can change your amounts to anything you want, if you start with 36mg/ml nic and you want 18, just change your %'s till it comes down. Very simple but efficient.

Thanks so much for posting that. I have been DIYing by doctoring up and cutting down existing juices I already have. I was having a really hard time trying to figure out how to use e juice me up when I'm working with multiple e-liquids. It looks like this program will easily allow me to do what I need. :2cool:

If anyone else is looking for it, it can be found here:

Please, may I caution you on using drops over ml. Many DIY's have switched to the ml for the simple reason of being able to duplicate a recipe accurately. Drops are dependent on temperature, viscocity and the hole opening of the bottle or dropper. Kinda like doing a food recipe, my pinch and your pinch may be two different things but a cup is a cup. I think you will find many on ECF use the breaktru calculator eJuice Me Up - e-Juice e-Liquid Recipe Calculator
