Shake well and Vape? - E-Cigarette Forum

Richie G · 10-21-2009, 07:43 PM

I'm basically lazy. I try to remind myself to shake my e-liquid bottles before loading up but I usually forget.

Currently, I'm at the very bottom of a 18mg bottle of Kent liquid. I am getting sledge hammer-like hits off this stuff. (I like it <g>) But, there is hardly any flavor. So, what's the deal-i-o, yo? Does nicotine sink to the bottom?

And, a show of hands... how many of you shake before you bake your liquid?

Well the last few bottles of E-liquid I bought were from Totally Wicked both 30ml Cigar and Hilton, both taste of nothing. They are both 24mg strength so I can taste the Nicotine hit but no flavour.

Just tried shaking it and it's still the same old crap, the cigar flavour I bought first I sent back and then changed it for 3 x 10ml bottles and the flavour was brilliant, so it seems the bigger the bottle the less flavour you get. Seems people have a hard job getting the mix right on the bigger bottles.

Totally P***ed off is how I feel smoking there crap, going to use somebody else now anyone got any recommendations for a good UK E-Liquid Supplier.

Shaking does help but essentially it is the quality of the e-liquid.

True, but i also believe if you vape the same flavor for more than a few hours you wont taste it anymore. This is the reason i have a morning, afternoon, and night different flavors//./

The "flavorings" are escaping everytime its exposed to the air. Much like an air freshner nothing can smell forever. And we are tasting the smell when we vape it.

Always transfer large bottles into smaller ones, and keep the liquid in the dark.

I was going to post this same question, but figured I'd look through the posts to see if there was any mention!

I have a 10ml bottle of Marlboro 24mg. I did not shake it at all (did not realize I should). Down to half the bottle now. It started pretty sweet, now it tastes like butter! But, smoking butter over analogs! It really is tasting nasty. Will the liquids seperate (VG/PG/flavor/nic)? With VG being thicker I would assume it is heavier. When dripping, it would be at the bottom, thus first exiting. Also, does VG hold the flavor better than PG? By "hold" I mean does the flavoring flavor VG quicker than PG?

I notice when I pour in half the regular smoke juice, then pour in the mix, the amber colored smoke juice rise to the top and the clear mix juice is on the bottom.

I've tried lots of flavors and have made a good number of my own, and no matter how strong a flavor I make them, they all lose their flavor as the day wears on ....except for Nhalers Pear Lung juice. I'd like to know why that is.

Also, I followed 0kieSmok's advice and put all my juices in the dark. Now I can't find them.

Is it safe for me to assume the clear juice has some VG content and the amber colored juice is all PG based, or has a lower VG content than the clear?

Ah, I can see you never met a few of the guys I went to boot camp with.

I cleaned my atty, then it quite working! Well, only vaped very very little. I let it sit an hour, vapor increased yet still below par (and tasted like butter). Sat another hour, back to full vapor and flavor was back! I think some of the mentioned comments of vaping the same flavor too long has more to it than I gave credit. I think I was just immune to that taste until I went without it for a couple of hours....

or the atty was not buring hot enough (thus vaping some components, but not the flavoring). Yet to be determined.....
