I normally vape none menthol juices out of a rebuild-able drippier but when I got to work I take and ego battery with a T3s. The only problem is it tends to mute the flavor of the juice so I add a bit of premixed menthol juice to get a more satisfying vape. I know it would be cheaper but I've never dealt with making my own juice or dealing with flavoring. I was just wondering is it better to just add a few drops of menthol flavoring vs adding several mls of premixed menthol juice.

TFA Koolada start by adding 5% - however be aware that this will dilute your nicotine content. I usually use it between 5-10% when I DIY menthols for other people. (If it is a 10ml bottle start with .5ml of flavor and go up to as much as 1 ml to hit 10%) You can go over 10 but its strong to me - so I start low. Its always easy to add more and impossible to take to much back out.

Beware of the Koolada.

It's only a cooling agent, no flavor at all to it. Use it to make the menthol shine. I would advice only 1 -2 % of Koolada. I use 1.25% currently and that's plenty. I made a Mango Ice with 3.8% Koolada and it was so strong it made me choke and gak. Totally unvapeable.



As for menthol (and any flavoring) I add it when I make each individual recipe. It's easier to get consistent results that way. Here's my favorite recipe:

The vanilla and whipped cream are virtually unnoticeable. The only purpose they serve is to round off the edges of the Menthol and Koolada to provide a nice icy cool vape.

This too^^ I failed to specify that I use the Koolada 10% - makes a huge difference on the percentage it is used at!!
