Tip....% means ml approx...
3% means the strength of the flavouring total for a 100ml mix,if you only want to mix 10ml,then you use a tenth of the 3% which is 0.30%,I made up a quick recipe to show you,I used one of Inawera flavours...
http://e-liquid-recipes.com/recipe/1980611/Tobacco+2
This is the calculator,put in your flavour & 3% you can alter the recipe to what ever you like...

Some things don't need changing,if it's got a zero or blank,just leave it as it is...
Thanks,thats a handy calculator alright,i cant see the quick recipe when i click on the first link,bottles and caps ordered yesterday and still waiting on the nic.It went AWOL for a few days but supposed to be back on track for collection soon,all thats left then will be the concentrate

Well eventually got hands on my nic that went AWOL,have a couple of questions if anyone can help out,im sure there is
Ok i will be splitting up the 500ml into 50ml brown glass bottles to store in the freezer,on a side note on the bottle it gave when the batch was made and the expiry date is a year from then in 2018 :eek:
When i,m mixing my VG,PG,Nic base what do you use to mix it with?
Does a more viscose juice take longer to steep ?
If so how long does the steeping take ?
Can i make up a mix and for any reason can vape it straight away ?
When steeping in say a dark wardrobe is half unscrewing the bottle cap enough or do i need to take the caps off all together and give them a little shakup to absorb more air every couple of days.0 -

Don't worry about the expiry day,the Nic should be good for at least 5 years in the freezer,all my nic is out of date now but still fresh in the freezer,I used some 4 year old nic the other day & it still gave me the same strength as a fresh one.
All mixes can be vaped straight away & if the taste is not good to your liking,let it steep for a few days,creams & custards need more steeping(weeks)fruits & tobacco's can normally be vaped straight away,if mixing a whole bunch of fruits together may take a bit of steeping.
I don't bother leaving caps unscrewed,sometimes after mixing & I need liquid fast,I bathe a bottle of freshly mixed liquid in some hot water for 30mins,this starts the processing of the PG/VG/Nic quicker.
I was using a battery operated whisk to mix mine until I got fed up changing batteries,so I bought an electric hand mixer for a tenner which had 2 whiskers on it,I just pulled one off & used the single one for mixing,I made sure I had a beaker with a wide enough hole for it to fit into,I saw a single electric hand mixer in Tesco's the other day for €9.99,ideal for mixing.
After mixing,I throw the plastic bottles or glass jars into a dark cupboard or drawer for 3 days,then I change the air inside the container & give it another good whisk or shake & seal it again,then every week I do the same.
If using plastic bottles with caps,leave caps on & squeeze the bottle to get rid of the old air & it will be replaced with fresh air & then do what I said above.
I using glass bottles,just take off the top & put it back on & shake it for a minute,I just do it weekly.
We all have our own way of mixing & steeping,my way works for me....
Good luck on your first...0 -

Picked up one of those electric mixers today from Argos for 7 euro which will do grand,regarding the speed would around the low to medium speed be ok.I have a digital kitchen scales but i dont think it would do because its used to weigh heavier amounts and wouldnt be accurate enough,seeing as though i,ll be dealing with less than a 100 grams and even 12 or lower mls is there anything on the market that i could buy that would be smaller and pretty accurate with this in mind,cheers..
p.s was thinking that i would have to invest in something like this https://www.ebay.ie/itm/6-in-1-Coil-Master-DIY-V2-Tool-Kit-Coil-Jig-ohm-Meter-Ceramic-Tweezer-Box-UK/262660426889?hash=item3d27c80c89:g:n9cAAOSwCcZaA7xJ so if anyone knows of a usa site that they are familiar buying from or
getting goods at a good price that has
this or something like this along with an Authentic Digiflavor Siren 2 V2 MTL preferably a 4ml tank at a good price that i could get my sister to purchace over there and bring it over here in the spring would be great,cheers.
Good idea with the that kit,it's got everything you need for building coils,however,I would pay the extra 3 quid & get the V3 Coil Master Kit https://www.ebay.ie/itm/100-GENUINE-Coil-Master-V3-DIY-KIT-SET-Coil-Ceramic-Tweezer-Jig-ohm-Meter/282562805928?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649
because it has the 521 mini tab & the V4 coil winder.
The V2 that you linked only has an Ohm Meter & that's all it can do(just reads coil ohms)
The 521 will read coils & also fire up your coil to settle them in,gets the coils heating up evenly & glowing from the inside to out.Here is a video showing you how it works https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKPurm1Ir7c&t=9s
I never bought a kit like that before because they weren't about when I was making coils,but I did buy the V4 coiling kit & it works brilliantly,depending on different coil decks,we need to wind our coils clockwise & sometimes anticlockwise to fit properly on a deck.
Hard to beat (excuse the pun...LOL) those electric mixers,just make sure the opening in the mixing jar or beaker is wide enough to take it.If the mixing jar is big enough I would go at it at full speed,if it spits out just drop the speed down.
These scales are perfect https://www.ebay.ie/itm/Electronic-Pocket-Mini-Digital-Jewellery-Weighing-Scale-0-01g-Weight-100-Gram-UK/192213165245?hash=item2cc0cc24bd:g:A7cAAOSwFJBZPsFx
Remember me saying that % = ml,it also = grams now that you are weighing,for instance... % = ml = g.
I can't think of anything your Sis could bring at the moment,a couple of steaks would be nice:D 0 -

Will pay the extra for the kit you mentioned,glad i posted and asked before going off and buying the other one
The whisks on the mixer i bought are only 110mm in length and with the two attatched the width measures 7cms.
Do you have to calibrate the scales,ive read of some that you can get that come with a certain specific weight to do this....0 -

No,don't calibrate,I did & fukced it up but lucky for me I had weights to set it correctly again.0 -
