WHAT ABOUT THE ADDITIVES FOR E-LIQUID?

Additives are optional in the formulation of liquids. They are adapted for the formulation of an e-liquid and enhance the taste of certain flavours (bring out the flavour, add a finishing touch to the e-liquid, sweeten it or add a sensation of freshness).

Advice: maintain a proportion of 1 to 3% of your base formulation mixture + concentrated flavour(s), as additives are generally very powerful.

Here are some examples of additives:

Malic Acid (SOUR): The Mali Acid provokes a slight acid sensation. This additive gives a sharp and acidic sensation. It is very useful for candy and drinks such as Colas and sodas. It marries perfectly with Fruity Aromas.

Methyl Lactate (KOOLADA): The Methyl Lactate provokes a Fresh sensation, intense and similar to menthol. The Methyl Lactate is a neutral additive without flavour. There is no taste of Mint but an intense fresh sensation. To be used with moderation depending on your taste.

Sweetener: The Sweetener is a commonly used sweetener. The Sweetener increases the sweet sensations of your preparation and allowing the consequent bitterness of certain aromas and of the nicotine. The advised dosage is 1 drop for 1ml to 2ml of base (French Source Laboratory).

Vanilline: The Vanilline is the enhancer which heightens the flavours and allows the balance without de-naturalising. It softens and rounds the preparations. Oftenly used 2 to 6 droplets per ML. However, you should not take advantage of this as it can provoke a bitter taste with a high dosage. Recommended by fruity recipes (Banana), Gourmets, Drinks and Classics
