If you are new to mixing, mixing a big batch like that is a bad idea unless you know the percentages of your flavouring is right. Otherwise you will have ruined 100ml of nicotine.

Agree, start with small quantities until you find your mixing feet.

i was going to leave the flavouring out and just add it in small quantities as i go

My advice? Get it right in flavouring only, then work that into small amounts of nic base (5 ml to 10 ml increments) so you dont end up with 250ml of disgusting juice.

would may original post mix be right

Agree go for a10ml starter and use the following

PG or VG 4.7 ml
Flavouring 2.0 ml
Base Nicotine Liquid 3.3 ml

So for a 70/30 mix you need 3.3ml of PG and 1.4ml of VG

I went for 20% flavour mix

i dont plan on adding flavour all in one go

 

[whit77]

i will mix the nic base and pg vg all in one go then add flavour as i go

I will try and make this as simple as I can, but it will be all dependent on what % of flavour is needed for each mix. Some need 10% upto 25%. So you need to look at the calculator or recipies to see how much is recommended, but for the purpose of this example we will use 10% concentrate.

Also, you need to be mindful that most concentrates are in a PG base, so need to be used as a part of your PG ratio.

For a 10ml 18mg Nic 70/30% mix, we will need the following: -

1.00ml of Concentrate (10% of 10ml = 1ml)
3.33ml of PG 54mg Nic Base (54mg/3 = 18mg)
3.00ml of VG Base (30% of 10ml = 3ml)

So we have: -

1.00 + 3.33 + 3.00 = 7.33ml. Therefore we need, 2.67ml PG base to make up the 10ml.

Sorry, if I have over explained it, but hope you get the gist. Oh, and happy mixing
