Hi all, new to the forum and got some really great advice re. building my own coils (succeeded!!) now to try fixing the diy juice if you'd be so kind?

Please bear with me (let's asume I'm a bit of an idiot)

In an attempt to move away from my old blueberry mix (sore tongue syndrome) I bought three different commercial flavours in the hope of finding something I could perhaps replicate, however vaguely,
and found the 'Strawberry Ice Cream' out of the three really nice (but not overly keen on the menthol (?) they put in for the ice cream part?) so I think it's something like a Strawberry Cheesecake'ish mix I'd prefer.

Trouble is, all they had was nic salt based @ either 10mg or 20mg (the standard nowadays I was told). Chose the 10mg and instantly feel light headed on first use!!

I think my mix comes out at just below 6mg (see recipe below) so there ya go, no wonder.

I've always bought from 'Vapable' and use their 10ml nic shot (18mg) 100% VG (NOT salt nic) on the following mix....

30ml nic (18mg) VG
35.75g PG
28.73g VG
10g Blueberry Extra
8g Glazed Doughnut
7g Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
3g Berry Cereal Crunch
2g Sweetner
Total = 100ml

....can anyone confirm that this is just below 6mg (nic)? And is that recipe some kind of Frankenstein monster??

As you can see it's a bit 'busy' (and getting a little expensive) so if I can find a good 'Strawberry Cheesecake' (any suggestions?) recipe can I use nic salt? But in what quantity (to achieve 6mg strength)?? If I bought 10mg strength do I halve it???

Told you I was a bit of an idiot....just don't get all this ratio pallava and even manage to get confused with the online recipe calculators!!

Sorry for the long post, any help greatly appreciated

Looking at your recipe mix the nic strength is just under 6mg. The overall quantities of VG and PG seems a little high if you have a total of 30g of flavour in the mix. I say this because 30ml of nic, 30g of flavour and 35g PG and 28g VG doesnt equal 100ml.
 
You`re shooting for a notoriously difficult profile with strawberry cream, I couldn`t even find a decent commercial mix, by the time I gave up on it I had something like 7 different strawberry concentrates, about the same creams and that`s beside different flavour toners and enhancers, whilst I was pissing about about trying to make a decent juice I was vaping a fruity lemonade which has since become my ADV.
