Measuring flavors?

[SaintMirage]

How do you guys measure 2-5% of flavoring to put in your juices? If I'm making a 10ml batch 2% of flavoring is so little that I'm not sure how to measure that out. Or do you usually put a certain number of drops in?

I use 1ml syringe to measure small amounts.

1ml Syringe here too. They are cheap as chips, but remember to put a bit of clear tape over the graduation marks to stop them wearing off.

you can even get a diabetic syringe from the pharmacy and i think those are 3ml (3cc) with lots of little graduations. I personally dont like the "drops" method because different juices and flavorings have different viscosity so one drop of flavoring isnt the same as one drop of 50/50 unflavored or 100VG unflavored.

I love the tape idea dogeggs. i am totally stealing that.

Another alternative if your flavor amount is that small, use a dropper and add to your liquid with counted drops.

I have my first order of DIY stuff on the way, I'm going to try doing by weight. a scale that measures grams and goes two decimal points I think will be accurate enough. Like I said my first so I could be way off base here.
