Packaged in a 70ml bottle filled to 50ml, you can add one or more 10ml nicotine boosters (not included) as needed.

How to prepare your Alea Jacta Brest e-liquid?

This e-liquid is offered in a strongly flavored 50ml version in a 70ml bottle. If you wish, you can add one or more nicotine boosters according to your needs without ever losing flavors.

To dilute your e-liquid, you can:

1. Remove the dropper tip from your e-liquid bottle
2. Add your booster
3. Close your e-liquid bottle
4. Energetically shake your preparation for 10 to 20 seconds

Indications to prepare your 50ml shortfill e-liquid:

• 50ml of e-liquid + 1 booster = 3.33mg/ml
• 50ml of e-liquid + 2 boosters = 5.71mg/ml

The space left in the e-liquid bottle might not be enough to dilute your e-liquid at the desired nicotine rate. For higher dosages, we recommend using larger containers like a 100ml graduated bottle or a 230ml graduated Twist bottle.

Tip: Remember to adapt your equipment to the PG/VG ratio of your e-liquid! You’ll reduce the risk of leakage and premature wear on your coils!

Which nicotine rate should you choose for your e-liquid?

The nicotine rate choice depends on your smoker profile and the electronic cigarette used:

• 3mg/ml for an occasional smoker (fewer than 5 cigarettes per day)
• 3 to 6mg/ml for a moderate smoker (between 5 and 15 cigarettes per day)
• 8 to 12mg/ml for a regular smoker (between 15 and 25 cigarettes per day)
• 14 to 18mg/ml for a tireless smoker (more than 25 cigarettes per day)

If you use high-performance equipment with a coil below 1 ohm and a higher power of 30 watts, you can divide your nicotine rate by two.

Our recommendations for the steep time of your shortfill e-liquid

As for a DIY e-liquid, a maturing time is required when one or more nicotine boosters are added to a shortfill e-liquid.

Steeping allows the flavors to fully develop and express themselves.

For optimal maturation, you’ll have to wait:

• 15 days minimum, or even several weeks for the tobacco and sweet/tasty flavors
• 48 hours minimum for the fruity and/or mentholated flavors

For optimal results: once a day, shake your bottle of e-liquid so the flavors correctly diffuse.

Conservation of your e-liquid

For optimal conservation, we recommend storing your bottle in a dark and dry place away from the light.

After repeated exposure to air and light, the e-liquid color can darken. This color change doesn’t affect the quality or the taste of your e-liquid.

The date indicated on the label is a BBD (Best Before Date) or DDM (Date of Minimum Durability). Past this date, the e-liquid can still be used.
