Default Lorann Coffee vs Keoke Coffee

I know Keoke tends to be the preferred coffee flavor for ejuice, but my question is: is there anybody successfully using regular Lorann coffee flavor with no problems? I bought some of it, taste is FABULOUS, but it's dark and opaque and doesn't produce much vapor. I thought I had killed an atomizer with it (which I did NOT, the atty is working good as now after a cleaning), but I just can't seem to get much vapor from the stuff. Is the Keoke really better? (What IS Keoke coffee anyway? I've never heard that term before.)

I bought some coffee juice from Tasty Vaping, and I'm disappointed. It doesn't taste bad, but it doesn't really taste like coffee to me. It's sweet like maybe coffee with a creamer. I want sheer black coffee taste, and the Lorann coffee flavoring is perfect, I just need more vapor than it gives me. I use VG in my juice too.

Keoke Coffee is a coffee liquor flavoring. Similar to Kahlua liquor in flavor.

Thanks, Renaissancepuffer. I'm afraid it won't really work for me then. I might give the regular coffee flavoring one more try. It seems to work okay in my husband's manual
M401, I'm just never satisfied with the vapor it gives me in my automatics.

I have mixed up some incredibly dark liquids, and they vape great. You may want to get some VG to add to your liquid. It doesn't really take much to a PG base liquid to add a great deal of vapor.

I do use VG in my juices, I wonder if I should try the coffee flavoring again and use either more water or less coffee flavoring. It doesn't seem like I want to do that though, so maybe more water and less VG? I use the ejuice calculator and usually use 5% water, 20% flavoring, the rest VG. If I bumped up the water to 10% and cut the VG down accordingly, I'm thinking that might give more vapor because it will thin it out and be less likely to gunk up my atomizer. Does this make sense?

the water might be your problem with no vapor. 5% seems high.

I love the flavor but it is so strong. I gunked up my atty with a very week mixture. I am waiting for someone to advise me on how to use it successfully. I have been using Bickfords coffee for quite a while. I put a few drops of the Loranns coffee in that mix and it is good but I added a bit too much.

I am using Capella with success. 4 drops to 20. It is dark but good vapor.

You know I was thinking about trying Faeries Finest. I've heard it's clear.

On the water, I was considering that more water might make less vapor, on the other hand, it might make more because it would be cutting down on the thickness. I think I'm just going to have to play around until I figure it out.
