Le Vapoteur Discount’s guide to DIY flavour concentrates

The benefits of DIY flavour concentrates

DIY flavour concentrates give you the freedom to create your own blends at good value. By mixing your e-liquid yourself, you can tailor the flavours to your tastes while controlling the nicotine strength.

It’s also a more economical option: a single bottle of flavour concentrate can make several dozen millilitres of e-liquid at a lower cost than ready-to-vape e-liquids.

For discerning vapers, DIY is also a cost-effective option.

What you’ll need

To make your own DIY e-liquid, you’ll need:

• A DIY flavour concentrate;
• An unflavoured PG/VG base (with or without nicotine);
• An additive (optional);
• One or more empty bottles to carry your mixtures;
• A pipette or graduated bottle;
• Latex gloves and safety glasses if you’re handling nicotine.

Before you start, make sure you’re working on a clean, washed surface out of reach of children and pets.

DIY flavour concentrate dosage

A flavour concentrate must be diluted in a PG/VG base and cannot be vaped on its own.

Depending on the manufacturer, a DIY flavour concentrate has a different dilution rate, always expressed as a percentage: 4%, 10%, 15%, 20% or 25%.

In practical terms, for our 200 ml DIY Pack with a 50/50 PG/VG ratio, that means:

• 4% of the total volume in a 50/50 PG/VG base = 8 ml of flavour concentrate to add to your 200 ml base
• 10% of the total volume in a 50/50 PG/VG base = 20 ml of flavour concentrate to add to your 200 ml base
• 15% of the total volume in a 50/50 PG/VG base = 30 ml of flavour concentrate to add to your 200 ml base
• 20% of the total volume in a 50/50 PG/VG base = 40 ml of flavour concentrate to add to your 200 ml base
• 25% of the total volume in a 50/50 PG/VG base = 50 ml of flavour concentrate to add to your 200 ml base

In a 70/30 base:

If your unflavoured base contains more propylene glycol (which enhances flavour), we recommend reducing the amount of flavour concentrate (from 15% to a minimum of 12%).

In a 30/70 base:

If your unflavoured base contains more vegetable glycerine (which mutes flavours), we recommend adding a little more flavour concentrate to your mix (increasing it from 15% to 17%).

Steeping

Leave your e-liquid to steep for anywhere from a few days to a few weeks so the flavours can fully develop. Some flavours need longer to steep than others:

• Simple fruit flavours: 0 to 5 days;
• Complex fruit flavours (raspberry, orange, apple, blackberry, watermelon, dragon fruit...): 5 to 7 days;
• Menthol, spicy, vanilla or aniseed flavours: 10 to 15 days;
• Dessert flavours: 15 to 20 days;
• Tobacco flavours : around 15 days.

After steeping, try your e-liquid. If necessary, you can adjust the flavour by adding base to make it milder or flavour concentrate to make it stronger.

Storage

To preserve the quality of your DIY e-liquid:

• Store it in a dry place, away from light and heat;
• Write the preparation date and ingredients on each bottle;
• Always store your mixtures out of reach of children and pets.
