My first attempt with flavorings.

[Sl4gathor]

I picked up some Hangsen Desert Ship, and cocoa, I started with 5% DS and 2% cocoa, with 2 drops ACV per 5ml, 2 hours in uscleaner, was mighty weak,
so I went to 10% DS and 5% cocoa, with the ACV, the flavor is very good, it's smooth as silk.
I got a small bottle of nic 48mg 50/50 USP grade nicotine Your Way 50/50 from Vapingzone),
I supposed I should actually measured with a syringe, but I did the drops.
ejuicemeup called for 33 drops for 16mg nic in 5ml.

There is no throat hit, none at all, I added the nic right away, should I have waited to add it??

Could the drops been so far off that the nic dropped drastically??

I am gonna brew it up again, 5ml and measure everything with a few syringes, just wanted to get some input from the pro's

First off I'm not a pro. I never use drops unless it's something like 1 drop per 5 ml. I highly recommend using syringes for accuracy. Depending on dropper size and viscosity of the liquid, it could be anywhere from 20 drops to over 100 per ml (someone just posted they were getting over 100). Good luck with your DIY.

Cheers,
Steve

I'm with Wingsfan. Measure by percentage using a syringe. Some people even go by weight, but I'm not that persnickety.

I got a couple more smaller syringes from the co-op, made another batch, this time with some Hangsen Turkish blend, 10ml, at 10%, I used if course 1ml of flavoring and I see I definetly didn't use enough before, the Turkish is already lower then the desert ship and I should have used more of the DS. So, I will chalk it up to learning experience.....

16 minutes so far in uc and it smells awesome.....heh
