I just ordered some eliquid that's 11mg nic, and 90/10 pg/vg, and should of ordered a little higher nic strength, as I like to add 3% caramel flavoring to this particular juice. What I want to end up with is 11-12mg nic and about 80/20 pg/vg, so I'll be adding some vg also. I don't know if you can figure something like this using the ejuice me up calculator tho, so if you can help, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

11ml of your 11mg juice + 1.5ml VG + 0.4ml caramel flavor will get you to 79.84PG/20.16VG with 3.1% caramel at 9.38mg.

We would need to know what nic strength you will be adding to get back up to the 11-12mg range before going any further with this.

Oops! I use 48mg pg based nic. Also, I ordered a 50ml bottle. Thanks.

WallyO is totally correct! You cannot start with 11mg nic juice and then add flavoring and VG and wind up with 11mg-12mg juice without adding some nicotine. You need to determine what nic strength you wish to purchase and then put the numbers into an ejuice calculator and Voila! the answer Edited for 48mg nic liquid.

PLEASE do yourself a favor and learn to use and understand an ejuice calculator

here is the url for one of the calculators with your answer. Remove the spaces between .com/ and lk/

11ml -your vendor 90/10 11 mg
0.6ml - 48mg PG nic base
1.5ml - 0mg PG
0.4ml - your caramel flavoring (2.96% overall)
This will yield 13.5ml of 80.7 PG/19.3 VG at 11.10mg

Hope this helps you. Bear in mind you are adding 2.1 ml unflavored to your flavored starting mix so that will be diluting your outcome a bit compared to just adding the caramel to the premixed juice.

I understand and use ejuice me up, but, starting from scratch mixing an eliquid. What I'm unsure about is using the calculator starting with an already mixed liquid, and modifying it.
