I am going to try and create an ejuice liquid and i was wondering if my recipe would be a good one?

I was planning on using 1.33ml of strawberry cheesecake flavouring, 1.66ml of distilled water, and 7ml of Vegetable glycerine. Would this recipe be a good one?
Sorry i meant to write that i was planning on using 7.66ml of VG, 1ml of DW and 1.33 ml of flavouring.

Hi @Conor buchanan and welcome to the forum. There is not enough info to determine if your recipe will work.

Different flavorings/or combo of flavorings use different percentages to reach the full flavor. TFA, Capella, and FW are high percentage flavors as a general rule while Flavor Art and Inwara are high concentrated flavorings that use less percentages. (for example)

The use of distilled water is usually at a "recommended" percentage of 10% or less...mostly less.

Good luck in your journey.

Okay thank you, i was going to use concentrated flavouring purchased from amazon from Fabulous Flavouring. It says it is a high strength. I have decided to use 8ml of VG, 0.66 of DW and 1.33ml flavouring.

Sounds like it should work just fine to me. You would be using $10% DSW and a little more than 10% flavor. Sounds like a good start IMHO

Depending on which Strawberry flavor you use, the % may be a little high. You may want to start around 5% and move up from there unless you already know that you like strawberry @ 10% in VG liquid.

Good luck!

Okay thanks that was helpful, i will try and test my liquids at a lower percentage to make sure the strength is okay. Thanks for all the help

Right. It is easier to add more if needed than to take away if it is too strong ;)

Fabulous flavoring ? Never heard of it and can't even find it on Amazon . I would stick to flavorings that are a staple in the E juice community .
Okay 2 seconds ill check the name to make sure of the name. Ill definetely test this one to see if its good and if not then i will change to the more common ones.

I think that the OP may be in the UK. I am pretty sure that the UK has a different Amazon site.

ETA- Or, maybe not.

Ok, I'll play!

Try to find some of the more popular flavors, probably not on ebay but from a vape supplier. I am pretty sure that flavors like The Flarvor Apprentice, Capella, flavor arts etc. are available over there. We can't recommend percentages etc. for a flavoring we have never heard of

Secondly, use and E-juice Calculator to figure your mix contents. Here is a link to an easy to use one but there are a bunch of good ones out there. DIY e-juice | Steam Engine | free vaping calculators.

Third, search here for member Danny and read his blogs.

Welcome and best of luck!
