No luck finding VG locally

I have tried Boots and a few local chemists. All they have is Glycerin which on the label say 100% glycerol. Is that any good? Does anywhere online do 200ml bottles?

What ratio of menthol crystals to liquid would I use?

[MadTz]

good question bob I will be using this method once my bulk supply of menthol is gone

it really does depend, but u can start by say taking a 10ml bottle, half filling it up wiht crystals, then adding pg to the top, shake, maybe 4 seconds in the microwave, and thats that.

its super strong, potent stuff, so start with very small quantities in your recipe...single digit percentages

Well the candy floss is lovely even without steeping. Will try not to use any for a while now. VG content is a bit higher than I normally use but my first attempt at mixing was a huge sucess. Thanks everyone
