On some of my recipes it says .2% as compared to 2%. Obviously, these two are different measurements.

So if I'm making 30 ml 2% would be 30 X .02 correct and .2% would be .002? Is .002...drops so 2 drops. Just guessing here.

What's a good calculator to do multi counts of flavors with.

And I'd prefer one that didn't also adjust the PG/VG as all I'm going to do is pour flavor and top with the nic base.

Those super low percentages are often for sweeteners/smoothers/blending agents or "wizard" type products.

If your flavours or Nic base contain PG or VG: your ratios WILL change.


Have fun

IF full bottle is 100 drops then .2% is 2/10 of 1 drop. 2% would be 2 drops and 20% would be 20 drops and so on. Better to figure your quanties in ml or by weight. What I do is for whole numbers and quatities over 1ml, I use either the grams or milliliters and for the fractions below 1or2ml i will use drops. I have figured out in advance how many drops of my ingredients equal 1 gram or 1 ml. For the most part the unit of measure I use ins based on the batch size. I will mix 5-10ml with a dropper and a small syringe, larger quantities I might pull out a scale instead.

Planes,
I presume this is a 20ml or greater recipe? How is the juice different without one drop each of the OCream and Pear?
I have the rest of the ingredients, just no O cream or pear.
Thanks

Cheers
