Premixing Base with nicotine

submitted almost 8 years ago by Owl_Night

I did do a search and saw some other posts about this but just wanted some confirmation.

I have 48mg/pg Nicotine. I put my values into the calculator
desired end results - 3mg nic - 70/30/vg/pg. I added 5% flavor into the Calculator (even though I'm not actually adding it at this time.
So if I'm mixing a 250ml base, I'd add:
16.19g Nic/ 220.07g VG/ 49.17g PG.

Then when I add this to my flavors, I should be "close" to my desired results? Am I looking at this correctly or do I need to make adjustments?

Thanks

Edit: Thanks for you help

Yeah that would be super useful in testing flavors. Just dont mix up a shitload cuz you run the risk of oxidizing your nic

Somebody in another thread a week or so ago said they mix all of their nic with VG to prevent it from oxidising. Now I'm just confused. :/

Oh well shit if that's true it would be super useful! Doubt it tho since really old vape juice is an awful thing to smell/taste. Maybe it would help if it was refrigerated and mixed?

Here, I found the comment I was referring to:

Perhaps some kind soul can confirm or deny it's integrity for us.

Or just buy it in vg.

I don't even see a use for it any other way other than maybe 50/50 blend.

You will need 6.3% of your solution to be nicotine to achieve a 3mg/ml level liquid.

So 15.75 ml?

that looks right since your nic is 100% pg based.

actually the pg part wouldn't matter if your measuring by volume. derp
