Base & Nicotine

Nicotine juice 20 mg (100% PG)	5%	10%	15%	30%

3mg 50/50 mix

6mg 50/50 mix

6mg 30/70 mix

• Traditional Nicotine
  • 20 mg/mL - 120mL
    • $15.49
    • + $17.92 (Federal Excise)+ $17.92 (Provincial Excise)+ $6.67 (HST)
    • = $58.00
• Pre-Mixed Base (50/50 VG/PG)
  • 500mL $12.95
    • + $1.68 (HST)
    • = $14.63
• Propylene Glycol (PG)
  • 500mL - $13.95
    • + $1.81 (HST)
    • = $15.76
• Vegetable Glycerin (VG)
  • 500mL - $13.95
    • + $1.81 (HST)
    • = $15.76

In order to adjust the nicotine strength, divide the desired strength by the strength of your nic juice.

As an example, for a 6 mg/ml result, divide 6/20 to get 0.3. This is the percentage of nic juice for the final mix.

So... To create 6 mg/ml base, mix 3 parts 20 mg/ml with 7 parts plain base.

Mixin' a Batch

Making a 100mL batch of 6mg/mL, 50/50 base e-juice (2025/04/05)

• 
  Part 1: 30mL nicotine (20mg/mL)
• 
  Part 2: add 20mL PG
• 
  Part 3: add 50mL VG

What's left in the bottles

• 
  The 120mL bottle of Nicotine
• 
  The 500mL bottle of PG
• 
  The 500mL bottle of VG

Kinda suspect the smallest available bottles of VG & PG won't be what runs out first...

And now... Some flavours I'm running low on...

• 
  There goes 2/5 of the first batch...
• 
  Big ones won't be taking up so much space normally...

and now that the big needles have arrived...

Finished the Nic bottle with a triple batch. (2025/04/14)

  That'll last a little while

  Sealed up for freezing

  Awaiting need

Well...

Picked up a fresh supply of Nicotine 2025/09/25. Not quite 100% out yet, but very close. Nearly 6 months to use up the last bottle mixin at 6 mg/ml & trying out 3 mg/ml now. Gonna be near a year before I need more if I'm happy with 3...
