Premix – what is it? How does it work and why choose it?
Premix is a ready-made e-cigarette liquid that does not contain nicotine, but is intended for nicotine to be added in the form of nicotine shots or a base. It's an ideal solution for users who want to regulate the liquid's strength themselves. Premixes have a specific VG and PG ratio, ensuring a balance between cloud density and flavor intensity.
Premix vs. liquid – what's the difference?
Unlike classic liquids, premixes are sold in larger bottles with space to add nicotine. The differences:
- Premix – a ready-made flavored liquid without nicotine, with space for shots.
- Liquid – a ready-to-use liquid that already contains nicotine.
Premix or longfill – what to choose?
Longfill is a concentrated aroma that requires adding both VG/PG and nicotine. Premixes already contain a ready-made base, so they are easier to use and do not require precise measurement of ingredients.
Premix vs. flavoring – the key difference
Flavorings are pure flavor essences that require dilution and steeping. Premixes are ready almost immediately after adding nicotine – perfect for those who don't want to wait.
What to add to a premix?
- 10 ml nicotine shot – contains 18 mg/ml, gives a lower strength after dilution.
- Nicotine base – for more precise strength adjustment.
- 0 mg base – increases the liquid volume without adding nicotine.
Premix – how long to wait after adding a shot?
- Immediately – you can vape the premix, but the flavor might be less distinct.
- 24–48 hours – recommended time for flavor stabilization.
- Steeping – full aroma after several days of steeping.
How to add a shot to a premix?
- Open the bottle and remove the reducer cap.
- Pour the nicotine shot into the premix bottle.
- Close, shake, and let it sit for a few hours.
Common mistakes when using premixes
- Using it too quickly – the flavor may be uneven.
- Wrong proportions – too much base can weaken the aroma.
- Not shaking – nicotine may not be evenly distributed.
- Wrong equipment – e.g., too little power for a high VG liquid.
What does 50/60 ml mean on a premix?
- 50 ml – the amount of liquid in the bottle.
- 60 ml – the bottle's capacity, space for a shot.
Example: a 50 ml premix in a 60 ml bottle means you can add one 10 ml shot.
Why are the bottles bigger?
- They allow adding a shot without overflowing.
- They make mixing and shaking easier.
- They give control over nicotine strength.

- Ready-made liquid – just add a shot.
- Larger bottle – convenient mixing.
