This is what I did when I first started mixing my own flavors. Maybe it will work for you.

1) Use 10 ml bottles (gives you a nice even number to multiply and lessens the amount of juice you waste...but I don't throw out the mistakes, they went in another jug to be diluted and shared)

2) Use the drop method...X amount of drops of this flavor, X of that, and Y of another, etc, etc. This is another easy thing, 20 drops is 1 ml and 10 ml is........200, 20ml 400, 30 ml 600, and so on.

3) Keep track of the drops you use from each vendor...the strength and flavor changes. The strawberry at West doesn't taste like Lorann

4) Once you get the ratio that suits you tastes, it is easy to mix any large quantity, but this time it won't be by the drop, it will be by the ml or l.

may i suggest for new diy'ers to start with single flavs , this will let you know how strong you need to make a particular flavor for it to be good for you , second down load 2-3 different ejuice calculators and make some fake recipes , i also suggest putting the same exact recipe in all 3 calculators to see if all are exactly the same mls some may go over or under but if your making mistakes or confused using an ejuice calculator you need to play with it more to become familiar before you start mixing , and use nic bases 2-3 timesstronger than the target nicotine having headroom on a bottle of juice leaves more room for tweaking flavors if your not comfortable using 100mg nic then try something lower , once you have a few single mixes you can blend them together at which point you know what will be the dominant flavor and secondary flavor and so on , hope this helps , it can be a frustrating experience but doesn't have to be

I've done very little DIY juice, but my advice is to build off 10ml until I get to 100ml. So if I'm working on an ejuice recipe I can make sense of it. 10% of 10ml is 1ml, if I'm making a 30ml bottle I multiply it by 3, so 3 ml. If it calls for 3% that's 0.3ml, in 20ml I'd multiple by 2 giving me 0.6ml.

I think it makes sense to do batches of 5 or 10ml until you get the recipe the way you want it then produce a larger batch.

I bought the nic in the desired strength because it can be dangerous and I want more experience before I do that.
