Hi guys, sharing my e-liquid DIY experience

Hi everyone, what should we discuss here?
I love DIY and I want to share my experience of making e-liquid.

How to DIY:
Calculate: work out the nicotine concentration and PG/VG ratio you want. There are lots of online calculators that can help you work this out.
Mix: Pour PG, VG, nicotine liquid and flavours into an empty bottle, in the right proportions. I usually add nicotine liquid first, then flavors, and finally PG and VG.
Shake: Cover the bottle tightly and shake it vigorously for a few minutes to ensure that it is evenly mixed.
Stand: Let the mixed e-liquid stand in a cool place for a few days to allow the flavors to fully blend

Tips:
Start simple: If you have never made this before, start with just one flavour, and then try more complex formulas once you are familiar with it.
Make a note of the formula: Note the ratio and formula each time you make it, so that you can easily adjust and copy it.

Making your own e-liquid has really opened my eyes to e-cigarettes. It’s not only good for saving money, but you can also adjust it to suit your own taste whenever you like. It feels like doing a chemistry experiment! I was a little unsure at first, but I got the hang of it after a few attempts. Now I can’t live without the e-liquids I make, especially the strawberry milkshake flavour, which is simply addictive!

Well done may I add to help the exact measurements of pg- vg-flavours it’s best to use syringes for example mixing 50-50 at 6mg requires PG 8ml VG 20ml nic 20ml flavour 12ml if flavour is pg base and nic is 50-50 so to get those exact volumes of each ingredient best to use syringes . Makes it easier.

Thanks for sharing! I have yet to try my hand at mixing. I’m kind of intimidated by the formulas and numbers. Your explanation helps a lot!
