Now that I've dropped into the Rabbit Hole ..
YES - "You" did ! ! ! AND- Took 'Me" right along with Ya' too . . .
Not sure if I wanna even come back out
- or to open up the discussion again by answering one of your questions, especially given all the great information provided by everyone else . . . Matter of fact, I reached such an "OVERLOAD" the other day trying to understand all the information provided, given my extreme limitations with DIY, particularly since I DO NOT want to have to translate % vs drops vs ml vs mg + this - that = vg/pg
(not interested in clouds) or specific variables that I do not understand from the get go - nor even using a DIY calculator - More importantly, have I ever wanted to DIY anything
e-liquid . . .
It has got to be SIMPLE ! ! ! Pick it up - Fill the
tank - VAPE ! ! !
However, I am left with no other choice, since I have yet to find anyone who makes a "True Tobacco Menthol" that I like and am trying to move on to an Unflavored Menthol Tasting
e-liquid (as mentioned by
@Bea-FL) so I do not go back to dual using
(After 8 years here - I finally stop smoking cigarettes only a few months ago) . . .
Anyway - Here goes . . . Now to try and answer just one of your questions about what I do . . .
my question :: is that enough Kolada and how much do you generally add .. ??
Honestly, I do not know if that is enough "Kolada" for your use or not, wouldn't know if that would be even close enough for "My" normal usage . . .
What I have always done previously is mix up what I thought would suit my needs with the e-liquid I was using at the time with the addition of "Menthol Crystal Liquid" & "Kolada" to taste
(would add more or less as NEEDED) by the "Drops" method (like you mentioned) into the tank I was using then.
However - Here is what "I DO" now . . . Or the recipe that I have been using for the most part (or more specifically, for the past 4 + months) that is mixed freehand into a 2 or 2.5 ml Tank
(Usually Innokin's Endura T18/T22 Prism Tanks) . . . Although the "Taste" is not at all satisfactory - it's what I 've been using . . .
All based on a standard 30ml Bottles with a drip nozzle:
40-60 drops - Ry4
(either 60/40 or 50/50 depending what I have on hand)
40-60 drops - Black Licorice / Absinthe
(either 60/40 or 50/50 depending what I have on hand)
50-70 drops - Kolada (10% - marked on bottle)
(AND- BTW: No Corn Chips Here . . .
)
1-2 drops - Pure Menthol Crystal Liquid
(BTW:
NEVER EVER anymore then 3 drops - LUNGS ON FLOOR

- Been There Done That )
Sometimes - less of the RY4/Black Licorice - replace with 30 Drops of a Tobacco based "WTA"
NOW - All I NEED to do is get the correct "Stuff"
(in reasonable/smaller quantities - a 1 litter bottle - NO STORAGE) to make up what I want without having to DIY everything . . . Already mixed Unflavored E-liquid (24mg nic, 60/40 or 50/50), Kolada (10%), and "Menthol Crystal Liquid" . . . Then figure out a mixture that would work and meet my NEEDS - so I didn't have to continue using the "Drops" Method anymore . . .
And - As I said before Pick it up - Fill the Tank - VAPE ! ! !
Hope that clarifies & possibly explains everything from "My" perspective - Just Sayin' . . .
Okay enough of that discussion - Moving on . . .
