Depends on your atty... Typically it's about 3-5 drops and then vape till nearly dry and just keep your atty wet. I believe it's 24mg/100ml, it's about concentration not content but I could be ( and probably am ) wrong. Regardless your not gonna OD on ejuice unless u drink the stuff.

Here’s a link to a sticky in the medical sub-forum. Item 14 addresses nicotine overdose symptoms. It’s hard to give exact equivalents when comparing smoking and vaping, so best to know what the symptoms are, and if in doubt, cut back on the nic. Lots of other good info there as well.

Sorry, I'm not sure I understood your questions. I don't think folks measure their nicotine intake by how many drops they use. Strength is measured in mg/ml. Divide the given strength by 10 and you have the percent of nicotine. 26mg/ml juice is 2.6 percent nicotine for example.
pfaber11 Ultra Member ECF Veteran
It means 24 mg of nicotine per ml of juice. So a 30 ml bottle would have 30 times 24 mg of nicotine. Just over one mg per drop. Hope this helps .

When you drip you can start with 2-3 drops in the atty, vape until the flavor changes and vapor production start dropping off, then add 2 drops. Every time the flavor changes and vapor drops, just add 2 drops. Don't worry about getting too much nicotine because your body will let you know when you've had too much.

2 drops in 510 atty. It may require more frequent dripping but the hits are consistent. You put too much in and it starts to gurgle.

How much capella concentrate should I mix?

Can you mix Capella flavours?
It is certainly not always true, but often most flavours from a manufacturer will need mixing at similar strengths. So, for example, if you liked one Capella flavour at 10% (which is fairly low), it would probably be a good idea to mix test batches of other Capella flavours at around 10%.
DIY E-Liquid Preparation
Your chemist’s plan is ready. You have the e-liquid base solutions, concentrated flavor extract, and maybe even some sweetening boosters to add to your DIY E-Liquid mix.
Calculate Flavor Extract Percentage
Start off small. A little bit of flavoring usually goes a long way. We recommend starting off with percentages of 5% and if you’re mixing two or more flavorings then have the combined flavor percentage at no more than 10%. If you find that your final e-liquid product is not strong enough then begin experimenting with higher percentages.
Fine Tune Flavoring Percentage
It’s a breeze, however, a criterion is to be taken into account when mixing: the rate of VG of your base. As you know, vegetable glycerin tends to dampen flavors. If your base has a higher LV level than propylene glycol, it will be necessary to add a higher dose of e-liquid flavoring.
