Dischem Glycerine

[Yiannaki]

So I bought this hoping to dilute my 18mg nic juices.

Could the diy veterans please tell me if this is the right stuff?

If it's BP like it says on the bottle - then it's the right stuff

 

[Rowan Francis]

Yup it looks good

Cool. Thanks bud.

The one thing that has thrown me off is there is no mention of vegetable glycerine on the packaging.

Thanks Mr Francis

I have bought and used the same, just didn't like the small bottles. Now I get the bigger alpha bottles.

Lots of folks refer to it as VG but B.P. rated glycerine is 99.8% pure the 0.2% is impurities from the extraction process and whatnot. Vegetable glycerine should also be B.P. rated if you want to use it for mixing, so the only difference between vegetable extracted and just plain glycerine is that it has different impurities in that 0.2% so really they both the same. Always make sure you use B.P. or U.S.P rated glycerine and and PG and you should be fine.

yep yep yep, that works perfect, You can even get dolly vardin as well, works just as well

I use Dolly Varden from Dischem, but dilute it with 10% purified water (also from Dischem). Glycerine is slightly more dense than PG, the added water 'thins' it sufficiently to be almost the same. This is probably less important in an RBA.

Thank you for that @Gazzacpt

Thanks mate. I will try that one next time

I'm used to vaping high vg juices in an RDA so the higher density is not too much of a concern for me. But thanks man. I'm sure that will be of great help to others who are looking to dilute their juices.

@Yiannaki

Have you tried mixing it in to your 18mg juices?
If so, what are the results like?

@Silver i have not tasted the results yet. A part of me thought to leave the juice overnight to settle (not sure if this will have any effect)

I will report my findings once i have tasted

As a reference, i have mixed 2/3 of a 6ml reo bottle with 1/3 of the dischem VG. In theory, this should bring me to 12mg.

Correct. I suggest you give it a good shake though before you taste
Not speaking from experience lol

Will certainly do so thanks man.

 

[johan]

Exactly how I dilute all my e-juice @Yiannaki - I just mix up as you described in 6ml Reo bottle, shake vigorously, place in Reo and vape (no need to let it stand / settle in).

If anything you could warm up the liquid by placing the bottle in warm water to help mix the juices and VG together evenly.. Just let it Cool nicely and it will be nice and smooth!
