Need help making Liquid

[justaguy0]

Hey everyone,

So i've had a kit for a while now with several syringes, bottles, droppers, etc, and I've tried making 1 or 2 of my own liquids when i've run out at home to no success really. I don't think the instructions that were sent were written very well, so I'm a bit confused.

I'm going to run out to Hobby Lobby here in a bit to see if I can't get some of the water soluable flavorings (I prefer the fruit tasting ones... apple, orange, etc.).

I want to make a simple apple flavored (or apple pie - I have seen the recipe - altthough still don't understand the mixing everything), and the issue I have is I still don't understand exactly how the "parts" are calculated for mixing. I basically want an 8mg strength 30Ml bottle of apple strength eliquid. I have the following:

1 250ml Bottle of 48MG/ML Pure Nicotine
1 30ml Bottle of VG
1 30ml Bottle of PG
1 30ml Bottle of 50% PG and 50% VG

I figure the PG is going to be easier to work with than the VG or VG + PG mix. So let's assume straight up PG for this one.

The question is.... how do I go about figuring out how much of each I need to mix together to come up with an 8MG strength 30 ML bottle if I'm assuming 10% - 15% flavoring? I tried using the ejuice calculator spreadsheet and that things just confusing me even more so... any help here would be appreciated for this experiment + for the future as well.

This is a simple to use calculator that will give you the answers that you need. Good luck.

This is what I came up with using the above calculator and plugging in 48 mg nic with 8 mg 30 ml and 15% flavor as target

Recipe

ingredient	ml	% of total
PG or VG with nicotine	5.0 ml	16.7%
PG or VG (no nicotine)	20.5 ml	68.3%
Water	0.0 ml	0.0%
Flavoring(s)	4.5 ml	15.0%

Thanks! Yep that's what I came up with too.... I just got done mixing it all in a bottle. I shook it up for a few minutes. Any suggested time for how long I should let it sit before attempting to vape?

I usually let it sit until the next day before tasting it. Some of it depends on what flavors you are using but the simple fruit mixes are good right away IMO.

Let us know how it turns out.
