Is citrus stronger on the orange, lemon, balanced with both? Any lime present? (Citrus Bliss)
EKat, guessing from those you are getting a burn taste when the juice wicking hasn't caught up to the coil. I never got into those top coil clearo types, but I think tilting them up is done a lot. I'm sure there's other fixes too. They also tasted quite muted compared to other devices for me.
I've always prefered dripping; don't have to worry about wicking. But I also have good results with the newer bottom coil clearo/tank devices like the Kanger Evod and ProTank 2. With the top coil devices, the juice has to wick upwards, so tilt or wait between vapes. With bottom coil gravity does the work; so no worry about tilting and it naturally wicks quicker. Flavors never as good with a tank as dripping, but many don't want to deal with dripping.

Oh boy, lol. Well I like Sahara quite a bit so maybe I'm still in good shape.
You're a fan of the aromatics, no? My blue grass burley can move in with you.. I wont have him. Wayyy too aggressive for me lol. Let me know!
I'll totally adopt your rejects. That'll give me the rare opportunity to sample steeped and fresh versions at the same time. Thanks man!
PM sent. Sounds like a deal. I also mentioned I'll send a load of Hurricane Vapor liquids. Anyone else ever suddenly develop an aversion to a vendor's entire range. Something about Hurricane's base started tasting nasty to me and now I can't vape any of em.
Sahara too!?!?! That's just blasphemy
Only those three though. The worst I can say of any other Ahlusion blend is that it isn't in my top ten (when more than half of that list is already populated by Ahlusion). I just can't do anything with any hint of perfume, and those three are grandma's junk drawer specials.
I have a 5ml bottle of their Storm Juice when they were offering a free deal. Haven't tried it yet, but doesn't smell all that promising.

It's...... super easy! Well, yes and no. There's stuff to learn (as their is with everything in this hobby). But once you get the hang of it, it's as easy as drip, drip, vape. All hardware tends to have a frustrating learning curve though. If someone is happy with what they're using; perfect. If not, other options out there, just have to do some reading and experimenting.

It is unique to any other citrus I have had. At first it smelled like heaven with a heavy orange citrus but was too harsh on the throat to actually vape. Now, if I had to pin it down, I'd say it is a well blended citrus - mostly orange and lemon balanced to make a unique flavor. I really don't think any one citrus dominates.
It was like glass on the throat when I cracked the seal. Now it is in my daily vape after5 days.
Lol yes it does seem as though we have opposite preferences, but your explanation was still helpful, thank you! Unable to vape makes me pause a little though. However, I am a FREAK for honey. Oh hell, I'll probably add it as my sample next time
If you really like honey get it for your next sample. I really like it..not an adv but I go to it often
Now you just got me excited. LOL. OK, gotta place an order Monday.
The XPress I had didn't speed up the steep much. Wlad told me a fresh XPress bottle has about a two week headstart on a regular bottle, and that seems about like what I experienced.
I'm interested in trying some of the coffee flavors available. I would like something strong and slightly sweet, with not too much cream. Any suggestions?
Placing order Monday, I believe...I'm disabled, still mobile, but chronic pain and current living conditions are causing a wonky sleep cycle right now and it's hard for me to get my order placed. Reviewing my wish lists, any thoughts on Maple Dream?
Right now, thinking Kiwi Sea, Chocolate Cream, Fijian Nights, Blueberry or Strawberry Vanilla Cake, or both...Or one of the cakes and Orient Whisper and sample of Maple Dream. Or vice versa, not sure...Rune also looks interesting but not sure yet. Opinions anyone?
I am loving the Boba Tea, Red White and Blueberry, Sweet Surrender, Coco Berry Cream and Pink Label Juice, yummy!!

ruh roh. my big bottle is already past 2 weeks. thought XPress was fully steeped. I guess that's subjective, but figured a month or so. ahh well, we'll see how it goes. Hopefully, I'll get it tomorrow.
I actually like to tinker, so I loved learning all about the equipment. I don't know if RBA's are technically considered "dripping"- as opposed to dripping into an atty, I've got two favorite RBS set ups:
A modded A-7 on top of my bottom fed Reo, and a Provari with an IGO-L on top. Both cotton wicked, with 32ga kanthal micro coils- between 1.2-1.5 ohm. I could NEVER go back to any other delivery system- EVER. Juice couldn't taste any better... great TH, clean flavors, and clouds of vapor!
I can re-wick/re-coil each for less than a dime- as opposed to buying $30 HH-357 atomizers, or $6 atomizers that only last a week or two.
FYI... I bring my Reo everywhere, since it's "set it and forget it" easy (holds 5ml's of juice). I keep my Provari at home, primarily to test new flavors and play with DYI.
I'm a self proclaimed God-fearing, high tech, country lovin', red-neck, vapor geek!
Don't get a sample of Orient Whisper, you need a bigger bottle.
I consider using a rebuildable rba dripper still dripping. Even bottom-feeding into an atty is still dripping.. just dripping from the bottom.
But I'd always suggest that new vapers start with a good ol' 510 atty.I also moved away from disposable atties. Rebuildable drippers allow me to control exactly how well my device vapes, plus it's cheaper.
My preference is 28ga Kanthal mini coils at around 1 ohm with German silica (and sometimes Ekowool). About 8 wraps gets me there. Running on a mech. And with the small drippers like the IGO-S, A-6, ERA (clone), and Cyclone (clone). It's been my vaping perfection for a couple months now.
Just got done rebuilding a few.. topped off a new coil with some Strawberry Vanilla Cake nomnomnom (see what I did there? Keepin it on topic lol).

I don't know why but I've tried with a few 510 dipping atties I never felt I got a good vape not as much flav not as much vapor as I did from evods and clero's and everywhere I would read dripping is supposed to give superior flav
I bought a few online then I thought Id check a local B & M tried 2x 2 dif places the answer was oh the last guy sold you the wrong atty
this time buy this and that, Maybe I was just doing it wrong
but honestly I got frustrated and gave up
Until I saw a couple posts on the Igo-L Rebuildables from FT for cheep
This thing is amazing changed my whole experience with vaping
It really depends on how long the bottle has sat around. Some XPress sits longer than others. So if it is a "fresh" XPress (kinda an oxymoron), then about two weeks is right, but if it is an older XPress, then it can be already like a month steeped.
