Problem with new juice

[CheesePizza]

I made some grape candy juice earlier this week. I mixed it 50 ml vg, 7 ml pg and 3 ml flavoring. I thought with a juice that's mostly vg, there would be very little TH, but I'm actually getting it bad. Sometimes it hurts my throat to vape it. Its 24mg nic. Anyone know what could be the problem and how I can fix it??

If you're using a sub tank to vape then your nic is way too high. Most people drop the nicotine level by half or more when getting into the sub ohm range. My guess is the nicotine level.

It is sub ohm....0.5. So, is it possible to drop the nic level when I want it to be mostly vg? Seems like I would need to dilute it alot with pg.

If you remake the recipe without the nicotine, adding both together will drop your nicotine to 12. I would suggest make 10 ml of the recipe and add 5ml of the 24mg recipe to it and you'll have 15 ml of 8mg. This would be a good starting point. You can keep the same ratios of vg / pg in smaller quantities.

Mix small batches of the zero recipe and that way you won't waste so much trying to get to your proper "sub ohm" nic level.

The nic is mixed in vg. I have plain pg tho.

Take a small batch of the recipe of 24 mg, (5ml) add 15 ml of pg. This will give you a total of 20 ml @ 6mg. You can go to a walmart and get VG, as some drug stores carry it. It's like 4 bucks for 8 ounces. You just want to make certain it's USP grade. Hold on let me get to a juice calculator and I can tell you what flavor to add.

When sub-ohming, it's almost like vaping double your nic level. So, vaping 24mg liquid would be like vaping 48mg.
If you have 24mg nic level and only want 6mg, take your 24mg juice and cut 25% or it with 75% of pure VG. You'll get your 6mg nic level.

 

[Sir2fyablyNutz]

ok... Take 5 ml of the 24mg recipe, add to it .75 ml of flavor and 14.25 of either pg or vg and you will have 20ml of 6mg recipe. Thats as close as I can get. 6 mg is where most people sub with their nicotine when dropping from a high nic.

Ok, thanks everyone. I was trying to avoid the throat hit which is why I've been mixing mostly vg. I'm a cloud chaser. So I guess I will place an order with MFS and get some pure vg and a few other things. In the meantime, I'll take your advise and dilute my juice with pg, maybe I'll change my atomizer and vape 50/50. I can deal for a week I guess. Lol

The VG at wallyworld is found in the first aid section, it's a skin lotion. Drug stores usually have it in the skin lotion section. It will either say vegetable glycerin or pure glycerin. It's good to remember if you ever get i a pinch.

Just write this one off as a learning experience. I shudder to think how much I've poured down the drain. Good luck.

Awe, Bummer. I would hate to waste my stuff. Maybe it would be different if everything could be purchased locally but I have to wait 5 days for my stuff to be delivered so I want it to last as long as possible. Luckily I only mixed 60ml of this and it appears to not be ruined so that's a good thing

I got a question were you using TFA grape candy flavor?

That would be the one, yes. Have you tried it?

 

[DonCon]

Yes and I only make 3mg nic and it KILLED my throat. I couldn't use it. For me to make it not hurt my throat I would have to put so little in that I couldn't really taste the grape anymore. Other people may say different but for me TFA grape candy is a no go. (These are just my opinions other people may have had different experiences with it)

I took the rest of the juice I had of the grape candy and split it in 2 bottles and then poured an equal amount of pg to each bottle and added a little more flavor and it's not hurting my throat anymore. I've only been vaping on the new bottle for a bit, will wait and see if I have anymore trouble with it. I will say though, I'm not crazy about the taste of the grape candy. Don't think I'll buy any more of it when I run out.
