I usually get my nic in either PG or VG... got it in 50/50 this time (seemed like a nice compromise at the time) I was going nuts trying to figure how much nic, plain VG and plain PG to use (much more complicated than it sounds) Couldn't create a formula (like algebra) and don't think juice calculators can even do this so grabbed a pen/paper and just started plugging in numbers (trial and error) Finally worked it out (to end up with 70 VG/30PG 12 mg nic) Now I have to do it all over again to make some 9 mg nic.

juice calculators can indeed do this. When you put in your nic it asks what mg and then it gives a place to add whether it is PG or VG or both and the ratio

Are you sure? It would have to show me how much nic (50/50) and how much VG, how much PG to end up at my desire VG/PG ration and nic strength. I hope you are right... that would be great. Is there an online one I can use (not sure if there is one for Linux)?

I am sure as I have bought nic in 100Vgand 50/50 and I use them both and it is something I forget to change on occasion so I know.
I use Eliquid R E C I P E s .com but there are several

    Elr will definitely do it.

    @Redbird11 - TFA Blueberry Wild has ethyl alcohol in it. You'll likely get a harshness from it even at fairly low % in a mix....if you don't shake the heck out of the mix to cause a bunch of bubbles....and then take the tip and cap off the bottle for a few hours, to let the EA evaporate off before vaping the mix.

    TFA Blueberry Extra doesn't have ethyl alcohol though.
    Thanks for the heads up. I went with Blueberry Extra plus some Bilberry with the Lemon Cake.

    I think for the lime I will do something other than a cheesecake.
    I've been thinking about a coconut lime mix lately, but I want to get some coconut xtra first. People have stated that is the best one. Only coconut I have tried is Capella, which seems a bit weak or bland, and a coconut custard.

    Oh @FranC, I saw this in the recipe blog and it looks pretty interesting
    Cheesy Acai Biscuit
    INW Biscuit 1%
    WF Mascarpone 1%
    TFA Acai 2%
    WF Boysenbeery/Raspberry 2%

    I don't have the WF Bosyenberry/ Raspberry, but I do have another raspberry I could possibly sub in.

    One of my favs. It will change the taste but should be good.
