Question on DIY Mixing

[Randym43]

Hello all,
I'm starting to learn DIY ejuice and have a question, I recently purchased some alcohol based concentrated flavoring from vaping zone. The calculator I'm using is asking me if the flavoring is pg or vg based, I only know that this flavoring name is NUPORT alcohol based and suggests to use only 2.5% can someone tell me , do I select PG or VG when entering this into the calculator, or is it neither and if so how do I go about mixing when I want a 50 pg 50 vg blend? Thanks to all wh respond

well i evaporate off the alcohol after i mix my batch. i find the alcohol to be very harsh on my throat.
if you leave the alcohol in the batch, you can say its PG on the calculator.

how many mL is this batch?
what strength nicotine base are you using?
was is your desired nicotine concentration in the finished batch?
is the nicotine dissolved in PG or VG?

this tells me that your nicotine concentrate is pure nicotine.... is that correct?

100 MG per mL nicotine concentrate is %10 nicotine by volume...

this is the most critical part... you do not want to be wrong when determining the amount of nicotine concentrate to dilute into your e-liquid batch.

This is the info from where I purchased it, I got it in PG base
120 ml of 100 mg Flavorless USP Nicotine Liquid
10.0% or 100mg USP Grade Nicotine 99.9% Pure.
Mixed with the highest quality Propylene Glycol USP Grade Kosher Certified or Vegetable Glycerin USP Grade Kosher Certified.

ok so you have 100 MG per mL nicotine concentrate or %10 nicotine by volume... the nicotine they use %99.9 pure nicotine.

3.6 mL of 100 MG per mL nicotine concentrate diluted into 15 mL = 24 MG per mL

3.6 mL x 100 MG per mL = 360 MG of nicotine

360 MG / 15 mL batch = 24 MG per mL.

I just seems to make the calculations easier if you just list them as 100% pg flavorings. I suppose technically it should be neither. But I feel like mine are close enough. Good luck to you and have fun with it.
