How much unflavored do you have? What is the nic content? If you have 30ml of unflavored eliquid you don't have enough to make 100ml.

Also, unless you're making 300ml of juice, you will not use all of the flavoring. Depending on the flavoring you have, you will only use 10-20% flavoring in your juice.

So, a little more info is needed to properly answer your question.

The calculator I use is here: ejuice me up

I have 120mL of unflavored 60VG/40PG base. No nicotine in this juice.

Well heres a second option for the calculator. e-Liquid Calculator
It looks like you may be missing something . Theres no total liquid amount given for you 60/40 mix nor wether or not theres any nicotine involved. Is your 60/40 already mixed to the strength you would like?

I want no nicotine in the juice. It's 120mL, unflavored, no nicotine.

All-in-all, counting the amount of flavoring you have, you should be able to make a total of 132ml of juice, up to 150ml if you use all of the flavoring. A word of caution about that though - you don't want to start with more than 10% flavor. You can adjust upward if you need to. If you use too much flavoring the juice will NOT taste good, and you can't take the flavoring out!

132 is more then enough. I will obviously test it before I do it all. I just need a tutorial now.

Check this thread in the DIY E-Liquid section: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/74109-guide-diy-flavoring.html. There's lots of info there for the beginner DIYer. I picked up a lot from there to help me out. Just out of curiosity, what flavor did you get in a 30ml bottle?

Also, what kind of measuring equipment are you using? Even if you're making juice with no nicotine, you should still use the same caution with your ingredients as if there was nicotine present (proper measurement, personal protection, etc). That way you get into a habit of doing things safely and correctly so you don't have to change anything if you ever DO work with nicotine.

Short answer: NO. If that's all the information you have, the next thing you need is, don't open the bottles until you know more about what you're doing. I'd strongly suggest checking out the DIY section, especially the stickies, and understanding the nature of nicotine in the strengths you'll be handling here.

Main thing: Slow Down. Don't make this DIY thing a race to the finish line, or it could be *your finish line*.

Be careful, & Happy Vaping! :vapor:

Welcome to the forums Blame!!!

How long have you been vaping? Have you tried many juices from different venders?

I have invested countless of hours into learning how to make my own juice. And I found its all about tweaking the recipe to get to your desired taste. I like looking for recipes that interest me and I enter it in my ejuice me up calculator and follow it exactly. I do all my samples at 3mls. After I sample I'll tweak it a little here and there to my desired taste. That includes changing the VG/PG ratio.
The only thing I don't like about DIY juice is I seem to have to order another flavor every time I make a new recipe.Someday I'll have every flavor ever made.:)
