Mixing For POD systems ( pod system recipe ideas )

If it’s a true pod. I would start more around 0.5 for the guava. Lime and frosting will just be the supporting layer but you just may not taste it.

Considering my low experience I would start by following the path of major manufactures. Do a mint vape. I’ve been enjoying spearmint flv with silver fish cap and vanilla shisha inw. You could also try a simple mango flv recpie.

Same here pods were the only thing that satisfied the addiction.

But trying to nail a few good recipes for them takes time, seems Ive been sabotaging my own efforts using to many flavs with Ethyl-Maltol and Maltol

Simpler but smart also. Props to “bluenose63” for the links to TPAs components below.

Have to see if I can look up other flavors components like TPA lets you do.

So make a 20% flavor recipe using just these and thats a ton of EM muting eveything.

Bavarian Cream (TFA) >5% <25% EM
CheeseCkGrahmCst (TFA) <5% EM
Cotton Candy (TFA) 10% EM
Dragonfruit (TFA) <5% EM
HoneydewMelon II (TFA) <10% EM
Malted Milk (TFA) 4% EM
Mango (TFA) <10% EM
Marshmallow (TFA) <10% EM
Rice Crunchies (TFA) <5% EM
Strawberry Ripe (TFA) <10% EM

Props to bluenose63

No credit for the recipe below, I just sub’ed flavs in and out. Friends say this is spot on for pods and higher salts, no problem with salts killing the flavors, seems to be the ethyl maltol and probably just maltol additives. Never used freebase, I started with salts. I don’t get any perceivable changes in my test recipes using between 3 - 24mg/ml. Smooth Nic Salts from NicRiver. And the only harshness I get is from some flavors. Rice Crunchies, Peach Im sure you experts know them all. Juuls site has info on their nic base. Im satisfied between 12 and 24mg/ml salts for cravings. (which is their 3%, they must use a very high nic base to start out with for 3% by weight)

Trying to slowingy decrease it.

And of course no sub ohm vaping with that high nic salts. My Aspire Breeze 2. I use 1.0 ohm

PG/VG-ratio: 40/60
Flavor total: 1.75 ml / 1.75g (17.5%)
Drops per ml: 20
Price: 0.00
You can make this

Notes
After 8 Thins Double Shot 40/60 (Nic Salts Only & Not for Sub Ohm!!!)

7.00% Creme De Menthe (FW)
5.00% Double Chocolate V2 (CAP)
2.00% Sweet Cream (TFA)
3.00% Vanilla CustardV1 (CAP)
0.50% Super Sweet (Cap)

50/50 leaks more if your refilling. 40PG/60VG or 35PG/65VG anything above 30PG/70VG is way too tight, you’ll be sucking hard. =). Some of the 30PG/70VG I really liked.

Basically if you are using 6mg/ml of freebase nicotine, then use the same 6mg/ml of salt nicotine. You don’t want to increase your addiction to nicotine. If the vape output of the lower wattage pod systems are making you crave cigs because they don’t produce as much vape/nicotine in each intake, then just bump it up a tad like try 9mg/ml of salt nic.

Good luck, yea I always keep some store bought 50mg Nkd 100 stuff handy.

Im sure you know but… I make sure to get Nic salts in VG base only, since so much of it goes into my recipes. It’s pre-blended well also. Or else you could end up with bad lop-sided mixes like (60PG/40VG.) Because remember up, to 20% of it can be PG based flavoring also. It could be hard to to get even a 50PG/50VG recipe or a nice 40PG/60VG mix or more cloud producing mixes 30PG/70VG, 20PG/80VG, MAX VG.

It’s best to try out “mock” PG/VG numbers in the calculator first to see if you can even make what you want to make if you’re thinking of using a PG only Nic Salt Base or a Blend for high nic salt recipes.

When the Nic Salt VG base is at room temp, it’s only a one time process of putting it into a clean dropper bottle, then it’s just as easy as adding VG to recipes.

If the links are not welcome please remove them. (admin)

I just stick to mg/ml and the PG%/VG%'s in the links below. For me it is the only thing closest to a cig replacement quitting solution, it is just like a real cig buzz-wise.

The thing that confuses new and some old DYI’s is the 3%-5% thing.

But if you put in the highest strength nic (you can get) in the calculator and set the target to 30mg/ml and 50mg/ml then you will see it does come to 3% and 5%. But I would never use or buy pure nicotine. I don’t want to have to dress in a hazmat suit to handle it.

I would rather put in 50% of 48mg/ml nic salts base or 25% of 100mg/ml nic salts base to get my 24-25mg/ml for use. For low watt POD devices 1.0 ohm or higher only.

I use this info below as a good starting place to start mixing for PODs and high nic salt e-juice.

heres my first pod recipe using 25mg/ml nic salts . A blast ffrom the past , kilos dewberry cream was always a very good juice imo , i used the RFSC SM bc it has a creamy feel to it and used all these flavors a bit higher than i would especially when mixed … 7.5ml of nicotine in a 30ml holy moly…

do you let the recipes steep a couple days due to the amount of Nicotine ??? i know ill make sure to shake the shit out of b4 filling pod .

2 Likes

Nice

yes id do the normal steeping ranges 5-7 days fruits for that.

I notice you got the PG nic. Im glad you were able to get it up to 25% nic

Yes Shake a lot. PG high nic. “Hot Spots” Extra shaking prob a good idea. Im to afraid of hitting one with high nic. So I stick to VG it’s blended good at the mfg’s plant.

Do you really need to go that high on forest fruit in a pod recipe?

4 Likes

Some of these 15% could be lowered a bit. Pods are weird need to-the-ceiling type flavoring.
But the FFM one I tested and it’s not over powering and came from a good clone recipe… here

I just replaced the sweetener to (cap) at max range it’s works

Oh, yea, that recipe… I thought it was just an exception to the rule…
