The standard/convention is to have the specific weights for your PG, VG and Nic, but concentrates are based on 1ml = 1g. The vast majority of recipes are presented on this basis.
Thanks @Andre

The question is - when I read recipes in these threads, how do i know if the original creator was using volume or weight to arrive at the percentage?
yup the fridge will slow it down dramatically. Freezer would work but your juice will get very thickHey guys!
Just a quick question, and I know you crazy DIY guys will know the answer to!
How can I stop a juice from steeping? Ie, I like the taste of it freshly mixed, so can I keep my stash in the freezer?
But I can take it out the freezer and after a day or two it will be normal?yup the fridge will slow it down dramatically. Freezer would work but your juice will get very thick

I was just thinking the same thing. If it fades then up the % a bit.I'm interested to know which juice you have that works best immediately. Do you want to stop the steeping because of flavour fade or because the juice is actually best freshly mixed and steeping alters the taste/balance?
Could it not be the nicotine oxidizing?It's actually XXX.
When I first got it I instantly got a few months supply, and got restocked long before I had used it up, so I have been vaping well-steeped XXX for a long time.
The other day I got a bottle and had left my regular stock behind, so cracked open the brand new bottle with clear juice inside (as opposed to my normal yellow XXX), and I realised that it was instantly better! Ironically I have been looking for a new juice, and now I kinda found it
Just want to ask and know this have been posted before. I make my juice 30/70 nic3mg after steeping longer than 3 weeks it gets that dark yellow colour for me its a sighn the stuff is ready to Vape. But lately some off it is so strong its actually burning my mouth.Could it not be the nicotine oxidizing?
I only mix small amounts so not even the bad stuff lasts long enough for that to be an issue.
I don't know if it affects flavour, but you might have to worry more about exposure to air than steeping.
Maybe one of the more knowledgeable guys can chime in.
Just want to ask if someone is experience the same problem. Make my juice 30/70 and Nicotine 3mg. After 3 weeks my juice is that dark colour so in my book its time to vape it. But lately I get a hell of a throaght hit. I use PG nicotine. Yes I shake it before I mix. I don't open my juice in 3 weeks time. Shake it a little bit daily my nicotine is kept in dark cool place. I thought its my coil and wicking but that is spot on. It must be the Nicotine. Must I drop my strength to 2mg. So afraid to make a 50ml again.Could it not be the nicotine oxidizing?

Thanks for replyI've found that my nic sweetspot is between 1.5% and 2%. I accidently made a mix at 4% and can really tell.
After steeping for that long, why not try letting it breathe a bit? No more than 4 hours. I've found that this helps considerably.
I mixed a bottle of the famous Unicorn Milk recipe on ELR and could not stomache it because it was so sweet. A hot water bath and left a while to breathe with the cap of the bottle off made a world of difference. Went through 300mls of the stuff I was ready to give away/flush before I tried this.
Thanks for keeping us up to date. I just cannot sit through those long videos.So the milkshakes are in and the judges were well pleased. My two favourite entrants in the comp are both through to the final three so I'm well chuffed and totally stoked for Em after the derisive comments when she was nominated. ID10-T wasn't a surprise, he is always strong.
As always, Rule 1 applies and I can't make any of the recipes, bleh. Additionally, the missing concentrates are not ones I will buy: FA UP, FW Razzleberry, TFA Coconut Candy, FW Creme de Menthe, TFA Malted Milk. I will sub for some but they are making such specific additions that I will only get an approximate facsimile. Still, the Coconut Rum shake sounds the business.
I also like the look of that coconut rum one, I'm sure it'll be better with FA's coconut. Well, that's my favorite coconut so's I'm just gonna make it with that!So the milkshakes are in and the judges were well pleased.

Banana Mint Milkshake... what. I have to make that. I am intrigued
So, I whipped this baby up earlier and it is a keeper! Instant creaminess thanks to the banana cream and fresh cream with no steep time!
The flavours work surprisingly well together and not one flavour dominates another, making this a perfect ADV.
The Creme de menthe blends seamlessly to produce a perfectly balanced mouth-orgasm.
The biggest pro here is off course that I have another use for me Creme de Menthe after the Caprian hangover!
Give it a go, you will not regret it...
