I've been mixing my juice by volume, and just decided to start trying it by weight. I've heard it was easier, and faster. So this morning I made a batch of my only good recipe so far. And I used E-Liquid_Recipes.com for the calculations.
i'm a little annoyed. It works great for calculating the ml's needed of each ingredient, but it is crap when you try to use it in grams. I wanted a 65%VG blend. The 30ml bottle I was using called for a total of 35.62 grams. That's no problem, since I know 1 ml of VG isn't exactly 1g. But the numbers it give me doesn't make a 65%VG by weight. It makes it 70%VG. I also noticed that it gives the wrong info for PG. All of my flavors are PG based, and the ml's always equal the grams, no matter how many grams I am making. But for my PG dilutant, the grams are increased from the ml's. Why would PG weigh more by volume as a stand alone than it does in flavors? I know that the actual flavor takes up some of the weight, but this just add up.
