Hubby handled the strong nic when I started DIYing. He made 18mg flavorless 30ml batches then I'd play with flavors. Is that what you're looking for?

What mg is your nic base? Is it PG or VG
Your target strength is 18mg
How many ml do you want to make
What % PG/VG do you like to vape

You can plug those answers into ejuicemeup software and it will give you the recipe or reply in this thread and I'll plug in the numbers for you.

i had not heard of making the flavorless and just adding flavor after you played with it, but I don't understand how that works either. I use the iphone calculator ejuice and put in the default as 15% flavoring and then just divided that percentage depending on if I was using more than one flavor. It made things easier AND THIS TIME I used syringes not drops :D I made a peach margarita that tastes more like margarita but I have about .2 ml to play with so I can add a lil more peach before I call it done :D

I looked at that calculator up there briefly but I'll look again. Thanks :)

I have 24 mgVG nic, 48mg VC nic, and both pg vg straight. and vodka :D

I do want to add that although I CAN taste the flavoring, it is not as high as I would like but I hear not to go too much higher than 20% ?

if you premix your base (lets say 18mg total nic 50/50 pg/vg) then you are correct, adding flavoring will alter the final product, nic and ratio-wise. i think there are a lot of people that do care too much about the specifics (13mg vs 16mg) and find it easier to mix a large amount of base liquid, and simply add flavoring to it as they go.

i mix each bottle at a time, using ejuice me up calculator. it takes more time, but i have complete control over every bottle of liquid i make.

Didn't know the PG/VG % you want. 10ml recipe 18mg assuming 20% flavor. I like to mix each juice with the calculator seperately now. Having a base pre-made worked well starting out to test flavors and recipes.
