TPA Blueberry need help to mix

[maxy007]

Hi all,
I have TPA blueberry and would like to mix it but I'm not sure how.

I'd like to mix 10% to start
I have 50mg no flavour nic I'd like to mix to 25mg
and I have pg 80%
vg 20%

how many Ml of each will I need to make that up?

Thank you

Maxy

When you first start mixing and you're using single flavors this calculator is fantastic: eJuice Recipe Calculator

These are your values according to your post.
Nicotine Base: 50
Target Nicotine: 25
Amount to Create: Whatever you want
Water Added: 0
Flavor Percent: 10

P.S. Please don't throw rocks at me.

You are 100% safe from rock throwing Nikhil

Ok I had a look at the cal and I think it's easy but I'm not sure about the pg/vg part?
It says 4ml of pg/vg do i need to split that 80 percent for pg and 20 percent for vg in ml's?
so that would be 3.2ml of pg and 0.8ml of vg correct?


Sorry to be dense.. my math sux!!!

Oh I thought your 0nic base was already 80/20. If you want your final liquid to be 20% VG and your nicotine is in PG, then you would just calculate 20% of your total liquid to get the VG portion. Sounds like you're making 8ml, so it would be 1.6ml of VG. Then you subtract that from the 4ml PG/VG amount it told you to get the PG amount (4-1.6=2.4ml PG).

If you aren't too worried about precise VG %'s in your final mix, you can premix your 0nic PG and VG at whatever ratio you want and it will only fluctuate a little depending on the flavoring %. In this case, 1.6/4=40% VG so if you premix a 60/40 PG/VG solution you can just use that for everything. It's also easier to work with that way, saving you a step in mixing and keeping you from handling 100% VG too often.

ok now I'm confused.
I made up 10ml bottles. So what i did was, used
5ml 50mg no flavour nic to get it to 25mg
1ml of TPA blueberry
3.2ml pg
0.8ml of vg

did I bugger it up or will it be ok?

I don't know what the nic (no flavour) base is. I got it from Xtreme vaping.

Which part is critical to you?

The PG/VG final ratio?
The nic strength?
The flavoring percentage?

The suggestion for premixing your 0mg PG & VG was an example of keeping things simple that works great if the PG/VG final ratio is not your critical concern. I honestly have no idea why folks get so hung up on that part of mixing if no allergies are involved.

Your recipe works for the nic strength and the flavor percentage you wanted. Is having the PG/VG ratio off something that would bugger a whole batch?

How does it taste? How does it hit? How is the vapor production? If you have 2 out of 3 then you've done pretty good for the first attempt and you can adjust the next batch accordingly.

Hi mate,
Nope it isn't important. As long as I get flavour and my 25mg of nic I'll be a happy camper.

Thanks for explaining it.
