Mixing 1ml quantities

[sonnetjie]

I normally mix enough for 1 ml, as that is how much I need for a cartomizer. I see quantities mentioned of 2 or 3 ml per 5 ml. I ordered some capellas drops as mentioned in a previous post. Is 1 drop per 1ml going to be too much?

If so, I might have to change the way I rotate my carts so I can refill 5 at a time and mix 5 ml of juice.

I usually run at 10% flavoring, depending on the flavor. The dropper I use dispenses drops at rate that 40 drops equals 1ml. So 10% of 40 would be 4 drops.

Test your dropper and see how many drops equals 1ml, and then figure 10-15% flavor to be added into that. You should be ok if you are adding only 1 drop, you could actually add more depending on the number of drops per ml.

It also depends on the flavor. Some need more and some less.

Thank you for the replies. I'll let you know how it goes. Might be a while before I get to try as my order hasn't even shipped yet.

When I'm mixing small quantities, I pre-dilute my flavorings with PG or VG. One drop flavor mixed with 9 drops PG gives a 1/10 diluted flavor (adjust diluting as needed). I can then use "standard" recipies but substitute drops for the ml recipes usually quote.

The only flavoring that I use where 1 to 3 ml batches would be a problem is Flavourart's tobacco flavorings, they are super duper strong!
1 drop in 1ml will cross your eyes, put hair on your chest and possibly make you see thru time.
There are probably others of that strength, I just haven't used them yet.

Good thing I'm not planning on using tobacco flavorings then. I definitely don't want cross eyes or hair on my chest... Seeing thru time might be usefull though...

But would it be worth the hair on your chest?
