New to DIY liquid

[dycero]

Hello new to the site and new to making my own liquid. Just got my first order in today. Waiting to post in DIY section so I can make sure I am not killing myself

With diy my day to day costs for vaping is less than a dollar. Makes vaping a pretty cheap "habit". Good luck (it's really not that hard) and saves a bundle.

9.5ml nic / 0.5ml grape.


Came out clear and very thick. All my stuff came from wizard labs. Did I do this right?

Assuming you want 5% flavor, then yes, you did it right. Depending on what grape flavor you have, you may want to go a higher percentage on the flavor. I'd suggest adding about 10% filtered water to reduce the thickness of the vg. Take about 3 ml of your juice and mix in a little water to see how you like it first.

I like more pg in my mixes and usually settle in to around 50/50 pg to vg. Experiment some to see what you like.
Welcome to the diy party and happy vaping.

Hey again, I am sure you will be fine. Here is a site that has some good information on it that helped me when I first got started. Do It Yourself E-Liquid (E-Juice) Recipe Mixing Station! Lots of good threads on DIY and lots of wonderful people that have helped me. Good luck to you.

VG is thicker than PG. If your nic is VG base, yeah that's a 5/95 mix. Almost total VG. May be the flavor will be muted but vapor production should be good.

Me, I do around 20% flavor. 5% seems low. But that is a matter of taste. A 10ml, I'd do 2ml flavor, 8ml nic, two "shots" of liquid stevia. Does mean a 12mg/ml nic juice being cut to about 9.6mg/ml but that's about where I vape these days anyway.

And I have been lazy lately. Bought 12mg 50/50 plain nic from Mount Baker so my PG/VG ratio is heavier on the PG but next month, I'll be stocking up from Wizard and will have to haul out the spreadsheet since I'm planning on a bulk buy of 60mg for freezing and I'm going to have to hash out my dilution thing.

I like doing my own. More control and you can save a bundle.
