Okay....then you did the nic row correct.....
I have LorAnns, Capella's, Flavor Art, and Perfume Apprentice or Flavor Apprentice (they are one in the same). All of them go in at 100 pg 0 vg....then you will get an accurate measure for the no nic vg and pg that you will need to get to your final desired ratio.....you will put in what percent you want for that flavor....I believe it defaults to the 10% for flavor 1...

Now where the red arrow is defaults to 50/50.....if you want something else, you will need to change one of the numbers.
As for the vapor and TH....yes..for the most part.....you will get a harder throat hit with the higher nic content too....vg does produce more vapor, but it also tends to mute flavors somewhat.....

I hope I am not making this even more confusing for you...

No no no...I have it now...thanks so very much
Is there Nic that is free of pg and vg and is it better to use that?
I found some I was going to order and I'm sure it was just Nic...
I have my pg that I purchased online,,,now I know to go to pharmacy..Or tractor and farm store near me.
I also bought the glycerin at walmart...I also have the wilton kind as I do bake cakes...which is better?
Other than that you have been an awesome help....

One more thing we are neighbors..I'm originally from the heart of Pgh, got to old for the city and headed out to the country side of Butler PA

Oh hon...country is soooooo much better.....I wanna be in the hills anywhere south of Kentuky

Okay....I use the Humco glycerin (vg) from Walmart.....unfortunately the farm and fleet close to me doesn't have pg...gonna have to see if a different one about 30 min north has it....right now I have been getting it from NicVape. There are people I have seen use the wiltons....as long as it is USP you should be good...

As for the nic.....you want to get it already diluted...it is VERY VERY dangerous in it's pure form and even some of the chemists here on the forum will not go near the pure stuff.....as for what to get it cut with....depends...what final ratio do you want in your juice?

Just to let you know....I get my nic from NicVape.....and MANY people here get theirs from XtremeVaping (have not bought any from there yet, but I do plan to)....before you do buy, check the forums to make sure it is good clean stuff.....

 

[MsPinkTornado]

Well thank you so very much. yes I bought the Humco brand....check did that right..lol
have some pg from FreedomSmokesUSA 100% pure kosher check is the kosher ok
and with the nic is 50/50 the best option to work with...I hope I'm not driving you nuts

 

[keelalagirl55]

lol...not at all.....if you will be mixing to 50/50 (which is where I am wanting to get to) you will be better off with 50/50 nic or vg nic. I am working with 50mg pg nic, and with the flavs being pg, the lowest I can go with flav is 60/40....so, I am gonna have to get some vg nic so I can get to the 50/50. FreedomeSmokes PG is fine.....if you get it from anywhere else (other than the recommended vendors here on ecf) just make sure it says USP.

I was mixing at the 80/20 and then got some yummy e-liquid that is mixed 40/60 and I REALLY like it.....so now I'm gonna start goin 50/50....

 

[MsPinkTornado]

I am sure going to go write some notes here from all i learned...I'm not quit as far as you are with mixing, darn I haven't done one yet.
Off to get a pepsi my tornado and read through the forums...now that I understand a bit more..thank you
