This is an interesting topic for me @bjorncoetsee. As a die-hard MTL vaper (almost 5 years now) I have never had a problem with commercial juices for MTL - mostly in squonkers and some max VG juices. When I switched to DIY I used recipes as published, always mixing at 40PG/60VG - never any problems with MTL vaping - in squonkers and in RTAs.

Then I got the very low powered (a constant 6.8V) Joyetech Ego AIO Eco for out and about MTL vaping. My first thoughts were also to up the flavours and change the VG/PG ratios. So, I made a few of my favourite juices, but at 45PG/55VG and upped the flavours by 25%. No problems. Later on I tried my normal juices in the Ecos. And I could not taste a difference at all. Wicking was also not a problem. Came to conclusion that, for the Joyetech Ecos at least, I need not change anything - other than upping the nicotine for the very low power.

Interesting @Andre !
Do you think the nic strength could also have something to do with it?
 
I don't know the regular recieps work for nic salts so just mixed a 40 ml batch of turkish tobacco nic salt -
VG/Pg 60/40
TFA Turkish 5%
Nic salt concentration- 25mg/ml
It's on the magnetic stirrer right now.
 
I always compare my mtl recipes to twisp juices. To me they are very strong in flavor, compared to a commercial juice in a mtl tank or normal recipes in a mtl tank. So i work on these simple recipes and uo the % until i get the same potemcy as twisp juices.
My lychee pear recipe still isnt even as potent as twisp lychee pear juice. So if i guess twisp juices have to be close to 30% flavoring.
Anyhow, these recipes is tested and have the perfect potency and flavour for my palate. I also use 14mg nic in my siren on a 0.90ohm coil at 15 watts. And for my pod device i mix at 20mg nic.

So, I can use the recipes that I used to mix for DTL juices, just adjust the PG/VG ratio & up the flavour % and nic strength???

Dying to mix sum ice mango, milkshakes & peppermint tart for my Breeze 2
 
Great thread, We should start adding more recipes.

Im soon going to be starting with Nic Salts DIY juices as im getting a Gusto Mini which i want to use.

Just need to order some Nic Salts.

All The Flavors website has a couple of Nic salt recipes which are mostly fruity.

From what i have been readings, percentages needs to be upped in order to taste them in a MTL device so will also look at some altering some current simple fruit recipes i use and see once i get my Gusto and Nic Salts.

Thx for this thread, been searching and searching for something like this.

Hopefully I will be able to contribute too.

Can a person use 'normal' nicotine in a nic salt device?
Freebase nic in a nic salt (MTL) device is not a problem, except that the nic delivery will be low because of the low power. So you won't feel as satisfied.

The other way around is not a good idea because of the health concerns of nic salts in high power devices.

I've mixed a few mtl recipes with NS, but I still can't get my head around the high percentages. I understand why it's necessary, but I still have to force myself to just follow the recipe and see how it is.

I do agree entirely. Almost all of my mixes, MTL included are under 10% total flavouring. Hangsen Blueberry is the only concentrate I find needs a really high %. Well, doesn't necessarily need it, but to replicate papasmurf I get best results at 20% standalone - MTL and DL same %
 
Quick question after googling and not finding an answer.

Can one DIY mix juice for a MTL device using normal nic instead of Nic Salt? If not why not?

Would normal nic be to harsh on the throat? even if you dont up the normal nic alot?

many people use normal freebase nicotine in MTL mixes, with some going as high as 15-18mg. I find that it is very harsh, hence my reason for choosing nic salts. with the nic salts, you can go high on the nic, but still have a smooth vape with satisfying (not awful) throat hit.

the highest freebase nic level i am comfortable with in a MTL recipe is 8mg.

Okay Thanks! Cause im getting a Gusto Mini this weekend with empty pods and want to mix some juice but dont have salt nic yet. so will mix a fruity juice at around 7mg and try it out.

Thanks
 
I swap between NS at 30-50 and Freebase between 18-24 for my pod systems. Either works just fine for me. Throat hit is more intense with freebase - I actually prefer that throat hit to NS

Thanks alot! Will mix some juice tonight and see how it goes at around 8mg first and add more freebase nic if needed.
 
For myself using a mix with 50/50 pg vg. Freebase nic at 24mg/ml and the flavor up to 20% but condisdering moving to 25 to 30%
