proper way to use menthol crystals?

[dragonlover]

Need advice. I just received some menthol crystals and was wondering how much I need to add to my premixed juices to just make a "difference" I share liquid with my daughter she likes 16mg but its not quite "strong" enough for me so I thought I would by the crystals to "boost" the flavors that we both like for me. I plan on maybe using it in some orange cream from vaporrenu.

This is what I did (from following someone's advice here):

I stuffed as many as I could into a 10 ml bottle and then I added plain PG to the bottle. Then I set it in some warm water (lower than the top of the cap) and kept shaking the bottle.

I read that 5% of that mixture is about right by itself, or to keep adding drops to pre-mixed until its what you like.

Yes if you make your own menthol concentrate it's going to be much easier to use than adding crystals directly to e-liquid IMO. Either dissolve in PG (I'd aim for around half crystals, half PG) and warm the mix as above, or dissolve in pure grain alcohol if available.
