Mixing your own e-liquids with nicotine shots often seems like complex math at first glance. How many shots do you need for 3 mg/ml? And how does the strength change if you use a 120ml bottle? In this simple guide, you will learn exactly how to calculate the correct amount of nicotine for your e-liquid.
The Basic Rule for 10ml Nicotine Shots
In Switzerland and Europe, standard nicotine shots typically contain 20 mg/ml nicotine in a 10ml bottle. With these simple guidelines, you will always achieve the desired strength:
-
3 mg/ml Nicotine Strength (for 50ml Shortfills in a 60ml bottle):
Add exactly 1x nicotine shot (10ml with 20 mg/ml) to your 50ml shortfill bottle. After shaking, you will get 60ml of finished liquid with exactly 3.3 mg/ml nicotine.
-
6 mg/ml Nicotine Strength (for 60ml bottles, e.g., Longfills):
Add 2x nicotine shots (10ml each with 20 mg/ml) and fill the rest of the bottle with neutral base.
-
12 mg/ml Nicotine Strength (for MTL & Pod Systems):
Add 3 to 4 nicotine shots to a 60ml longfill bottle and fill the remaining space with your preferred base.
Important Tip for Mixing
After adding shots and base, you should always shake the bottle vigorously for at least 30 to 60 seconds. This ensures that the nicotine and flavor are evenly distributed in the liquid, providing a consistent taste from the first to the last puff.
