I cut down VERY gradually. After the first 6 months or so I mixed some at 18mg instead of 24mg just to see if I could tell the difference. I didn't, so I stayed there for three months and then bumped down to 12mg. I still didn't have any cravings at all so around my one year mark I went down to 6mg without a problem. I figured that if I could cut it in half like that without noticing it then I must not be very addicted to nicotine anymore so I'm going zero. My juice is getting stupid cheap to mix too. The most expensive ingredient is the flavoring.
