E-Liquid Mixing:
From: | To: |
The E-Liquid Calculator helps you determine the exact amounts of each component needed to create your desired e-liquid mixture, including nicotine base, propylene glycol (PG), vegetable glycerin (VG), and flavorings.
The calculator uses the following formulas:
Nicotine Volume = (Target Strength × Total Volume) / Nicotine Base Strength
Flavor Volume = (Flavor Percentage / 100) × Total Volume
Base Volume (PG/VG) = Total Volume - Nicotine Volume - Flavor Volume
Details: Precise measurement of e-liquid components ensures consistent nicotine delivery, proper flavor balance, and correct viscosity for your vaping device.
Tips: Enter the total volume you want to make, your nicotine base strength, desired final nicotine strength, and your preferred PG/VG ratio and flavor percentage.
Q1: What's a typical PG/VG ratio?
A: Common ratios are 50/50 or 70/30 (VG/PG). Higher PG gives more throat hit, higher VG produces more vapor.
Q2: How much flavoring should I use?
A: Typically 10-20%, but check your specific flavor manufacturer's recommendations.
Q3: Can I use this for nicotine salts?
A: Yes, but be aware salt nicotine is absorbed differently than freebase nicotine.
Q4: How should I store my mixed e-liquid?
A: In a cool, dark place. Many flavors benefit from steeping (1-4 weeks).
Q5: Is DIY e-liquid cheaper?
A: Typically yes, with potential savings of 70-90% compared to commercial e-liquids.
