    Help with a "peppery" taste?

    Many people perceive nicotine as peppery. Different retailers source their nicotine from different places. It could be US, or EU, or UK, or China, or even India. All the nicotine manufacturers have slightly different extraction/distillation processes that can affect final taste and so one...

    What do you think about temperature control devices?

    <Since VG (554 F) has a higher boiling point than PG (373 F) it's safer to use it in a coil heating device. > well, in the lab, sitting in a bottle, that is true. However, if you add water to VG (or PG for that matter) it will lower the boiling point dramatically. So in reality, PG may be the...

    Hi there, Lazzin2002 Welcome to ECF! you need to make 5 posts in the new members before you can venture out to other areas. So, let's get started... how about telling us what devices you're using, and how long you've been vaping? Do you live in an area where there are a lot of B&Ms (stores)...

    MadVapes Weekly Contest - March 9 through March 13

    I'd rather not have DST. Because it confuses my animals. They can't read the barn clocks, so they think I'm being mean feeding them late. But they like it when I feed them 'early'. :)

    Two cultures

    On the surface it seems that #1 has a better business model, but.... who is better able to adapt and evolve successfully over the next 5 years? For instance, Calif is about to tack another $20/carton tax onto ciggies. How will that affect store #1? And how will they adjust when the vaping...

    Just visited my doctor

    On your next visit, ask him what he means - draw him into a conversation as to what he sees as specific issues with vaping. Does he have issues with PG? with VG? with physiological effects of nicotine? with flavorings? with e-liquid origins/safe handling? with high-watt vaping? what 'science'...

    Why is there no big e-liquid companies and only small ones ?

    I disagree that fewer companies would mean cheaper prices.When there's a monopoly, the monopoly can set any price they want. Competition drives price. In Jakarta, you likely have the ability to order from Kanger or DeKang or Hangsen - the three largest manufacturers of eliquid in the world...

    QUestion about testing flavor concentrations

    Since you've vaped some and then poured it from the test tank back into the bottle, let's concentrate on getting the flavor right. Write down how much add'l flavoring you add. Adding (.10) ml (another 2.0%) to 5ml is not going to throw off the nicotine level very much. You can adjust for...
