Is the math right for my very first mix also a 007 cola question

Hey hope your well due to to UK not being able to get a flavour in the recipe I’ve switched to a different one from 007 but just wandered if there is a replacement option for vape train (impact flavours) fizzy sherbet as can’t get in UK. I found lots of sherbet alternatives but looking for one that’s tried and tested with this recipe that doesn’t mess flavour up.

Due to that I’ve switched to a basic recipe from another person but unsure on volumes could I possibly check with you guys since your the gods of DIY and I’ve never ever done one before. Got all my pgvg ready just need to buy flavours and trying to work out how much is needed.

It’s a very basic one only 4 ingredients just as my first go seems ideal.

So I’m gonna check with you my math as this ones not by weight.

I will do the flavours as numbers.

  1. 0.5%

  2. 1.5%

  3. 0.75%

  4. 3%

I’m making 1lt so am I correct below

  1. 5ml

  2. 15ml

  3. 7.5ml

  4. 30ml

Resulting in 57.5ml total flavour for 1lt

Meaning 943ml pgvg mix and 57.5ml flavour

It just feels a very very small amount of flavour to work on a ltr

Thanks very much for any help or time in replying it’s appreciated.

Looks right,

Dude make a 10ml or 30ml first to see if you even like it.

Yeah I’ve been mixing for several months now and I still just do 10ml testers. You never know what it’s gonna taste like until you’ve made it.

i got a load of 10ml bottles but my scales struggle to read very low percentages even though my scales read 0.00g i believe they start at 0.03g and some flavours to add to a recipe was 0.01/0.02 so thought i would just stick to 30ml bottles i also leave 2ml space so final mix is 28ml

I use this for everything up to 30ml. Reads faster than my 0.01 scale and actually gives me enough accuracy for 10ml testers. I’ve used at least weekly since 2019 and I think I’ve changed the batteries twice.

when there’s a low enough number, don’t tare out the previous reading just add them together.
