VG needs more flavour - but how much more?

[AlexTM]

Hello!

I've been doing quite some DIY, but usually with mostly PG juices, since I by far prefer those. However, I had a few requests for VG juices, and now I have a flavouring problem. VG based liquids definitely need more flavour, but how much more? Is there anything like a rule of thumb for this?

Twice I have tried just using 150% of the PG flavouring for VG juice, but both times I was told "Could be a bit more". What's you experience with this?

Thanks,
Alex

Alex,

I had to recently switched to all VG dues to sensitivities to PG. I use 1-3% more, more on the 2% though.

So if you use, say, 10% flavouring, you use 12% with VG?

Of course my %s vary Alex between 12-20%, but yes I kept my original recipes and just added 1-3% and the verdict seems like 2% on avg. Hope this helps. BTW I prefer the more rounder vape all VG offers

Yes, of course they vary, I was just making sure I got it right. I'm going to give that a try. Personally, I find that pure VG often scratches in my throath and I have to cough more often, but everybody feels slightly different there.

Yup, same here Alex more phlegm at the back of my throat.

I like really really strong flavors,so when I use all PG I got for about 10-15% more then when I use PG/VG mix
