I have here

VG base
18mg Nicotine shots (Pg base)
Drip hacks concentrates

Id like a little help getting my mixes correct if someone could help that would be great.

I'm wanting to make up 120ml of each flavour at 6mg. Each concentrate recommends 18-20% so would the following be the correct method for mixing.

24ml of flavour concentrate followed by
Nicotine shots not sure how many? Then topped up to 120ml final amount with the VG.

Thanks in advance
 
yeah thats right, 24ml flavour is 20%, it will take 4 18mg nic shots to make it 6mg, your final mix will be more pg than vg though, you may want to consider vg nic in the future if you want a higher vg ratio

Thanks for comment, I can pick up some vg nicotine before I start as I would prefer something around 80/20 vg pg.

Do you have any idea what the final ratio would be using the above but changing the nicotine to vg?

for a final mix of 120ml @6mg you would need 40ml of 18mg nicotine.
On the subject of concentrates, If you are mixing @20% concentrate in 120ml final amount then 24ml would be 20% of the final mix

It would be exacly 80/20 if you used vg nic and your concentrate was pg based. Hope that helps

80vg/20pg

Thanks for the input, 80/20 is what I'm looking for so that's perfect.. Before this I started out with a ready made 6mg pg/vg base 50/50 which I purchased before the tpd and just added in some concentrates from darkstar the results were poor even with steep time. So I'm hoping to get this one right.
 
Let us know how you get on,goodluck.

Will do, I've a feeling things may work out better this time around. I tried the new drip hacks concentrates I have into the left over ready made 6mg pg/vg base and the results were much better just with a quick shake and vape. Lots of flavour coming through with these.

Hi, as dyslexic fucker says above, let us know how you get on wih it and wish you luck too. Also click on the E-liquid recipes section above on here and there you will find the calculator for mixing liquids which will calculate it all for you. Hope that helps and all the best.
