when u try new mixes, it will be cheaper to make a small batch, like 15ml w/ no nic, the nic is the expensive part. If u like it then make larger batch. After a while u can fiddle w/ the nic % and get your nic lvl down too. If u start to go lower ohms on your builds/coils, u might find the mixes harsh, so u may need to lower the nic% then too.

u can follow mixers, pick a few that mix what u like w/ the pg/vg ratio since that effects the flavor %'s. There are a few that may use brands that u can get easier, some peps in OZ cant get certain brands.I picked a few that are still mixing and regularly join chat ch. so if i have a Q, i can ask.GL to u.

yeah, keep all private till u know it works, the DB is filled w/ crap. when u pick a flavor from the drop down menu in the calc, pick the correct brand and that brand may have duplicates so pick the one w/ the most mixes, should look similiar to: vanilla (TPA) for example, not vanilla by tpa or otherwise.

not usually. 100mg nic at $50/liter costs $0.05/ml. What does TPA flavoring cost? $4/30ml? That is $0.13/ml and he is obv using more flavoring than he is nic.
yep,so sry,the cheapest way would be to vape 100% VG

I donāt know if Iām looking at this incorrectly or not, but if you had 20% flavors then added 6 % (pg) nic to have a total of 26% pg 74% vgā¦ stating that you can just add more vg to make the juice to at 20/80 (pg/vg) will workā¦ but you will not have 20% flavoring afterwards.
Iām just saying that if the 20% flavoring number is importantā¦ but like I said I may be looking at this incorrectly.

The Calculator really does make it stupidly easy to build a recipe. If you get to far out of PG-VG ratio youāll get a big red banner suggesting your PG ratios is off so you canāt screw it up to badly.

I had to ad 0.08 pg still it tastes good.
Onward and upward.
Thinking of getting more nic to put on freeze.
Iāve got 500ml n 450ml to split.
With the new tpd law Iām confused as to the extra expenses.
As far as I can see we can only buy in smaller bottles.
So wonāt I just have to bulk buy the 10ml bottles to get the same amount I purchase already.
Donāt forget Iām a newb so lamen terms please.lol
Yes, but it works out more expensive

So are they putting extra tax on it?
Youāre currently buying the 72mg/ml from darkstar @ Ā£17.49 for 500ml.
Youāll only be able to get 10ml bottles of 18mg/ml @ Ā£15.99 for 18 bottles (180ml total)
Youād need a lot more of the 18mg/ml pack of 18 to get any where near the amount you have in the 72mg/ml bottle.

Around 3 times more expensive thanks you lolly.
Where did you say you got your concentrates again.
If itās in this thread donāt reply.
Was just looking for it when saw your post still having trouble navigating the site.
I did just find the flavour stash section were you can add your flavours and it will give you list of recipes you can make.
Site gets better and better.
The more I look around.
