Good luck and let us know how it works out.
First DIY, but I have kicked up the nic levels in liquids before.... Played around with enough calculators over the last year, it should be pretty easy....

What's the usual or preferred mixing method? Flavorings into pg/VG base and then add nic, measure out nic first, add to base then add flavorings,...?

I pick up my pg and VG and supplies tomorrow and the flavors are supposed to be delivered on Saturday, so I'll have something this weekend....

Done.... Seemed easy enough, I'll get pics and details up later....

Edit: did a 30 ml batch.... 3ml of 100mg nic, 5 ml absinthe, 1.5 ml horehound, .5 ml smooth, .5ml tangerine (vendor was out of orange), 17 ml VG and the rest of totaling 29.5 ml.... Gave it a shake, let it air for 10 min, another shake, loaded up my dripper on an old wick to see how strong the flavor was, all I got on the first hit was minty black licorice.... Further hits reminded me of root beer slightly....
Let it it some more followed by more shaking, put a clean cotton wick in the dripper and tried it again.... First hit is heavily minty/mentholy but only the first hit.... After a few hours, its reminding my of the white good and plenty pieces.... Definitely not a favorite, more of a situational candy but it took some restraint to stop dripping.... I'll let it sit for a few days and try again, going to mix up another batch with less horehound and VG, more tangerine and pg as well....
Overall, surprised at how easy and quick the process went, liking the mix, but trying to tune it to better fit what I'm looking for....
