@LisaL Hi Lisa!!! Long time no see. SO glad to see you made your way here. I hope all has been well. I still use, and regularly pimp, your fabulous Google Doc. I've been trying to keep that house in order with new flavors, etc. MISSED you! What're you vaping on these days??

REMINDER PEEPS! Best ever Ahlusion flavor tracking and taste bud matching excel google sheet here:

Everyone say thanks to LisaL!


Holy crap LeBeau - way to keep the faith! Clearly I should've monetized that thing ...

vaping on ... original Boba today. The stocks are dangerously low, need to get an order in this weekend.

@tyleris12 I'm pretty sure it's the coils. None of them have been 1.6, not lasted very long and have all sorts of burnt hits. I've ordered with another supplier that I had better luck with prior to giving fasttech a whirl. I've ordered from Sweet Vapes several times and very happy with their service but I wish they had a spend this much and get free shipping...or just free standard shipping options like where I order from currently.

@Bukket5 I think the 50/50 is too much TH for me. Example...my 30 mls of Luna Fort 50/50, 3 nic blend has a big TH difference to several other liquids I've tried through Ahl...is it just me or does it have a little more kick? I haven't noticed that big a difference in flavor from 70vg to 50/50 on the other liquids so I'll probably bump back up.

On another note, so many of my sample liquids are fading in their flavor. No point in keeping 10mls in the fridge, as with some I don't know how long they need to steep to hit the sweet spot. It's probably me/my setup but they smell so good but when I vape I barely taste anything. Come on isub-g tank glass!!!!

Fridge? Probably too cold. No colder than 50°F (or so) is my suggestion.

Your flavors should be getting stronger as they steep. All of my flavors taste amazing after 6 months or a year. I only keep a few flavors in the fridge. Lemon, Lime, and Pineapple Cream. But once I open a 60ml I don't keep it in the fridge. I just finished a bottle of Lime Cream that was a year old. The flavor was terrific. I hadn't been vaping it since I was vaping a lot of Lemon Cream.

Your Luna Fortuna should settle down after a couple of months steeping at room temperature. A lot of the older fruit mixes still take a longer steep for all of the flavors to come together. Luna Fortuna and Sweet Surrender both have more TH until they have steeped long enough. Make sure to open it when it arrives. Put the cap back on and then shake it for 30 seconds every few days. Put them in a dark cupboard or a box to keep them out of the light. The newest flavors don't require as long to steep.

Higher VG does take longer to steep. Luna Fortuna is one of the original fruit mixes so don't give up on it yet. Revisit it in a few months. I wouldn't keep any flavors in the fridge unless you buy multiple bottles of the same flavor or you love the flavor fresh. Ahlusion doesn't recommend refrigerating flavors. A few of us starting doing it with Lemon Cream to keep it from steeping since we love the fresh Lemon.

You shouldn't be losing flavor as they age. It really should be getting better. The Ron Effect and Lemon Berry Kiss that I put in my Nautilus's the other day have been sitting here for 6-9 months. Both of them are so much better after a long steep.

The GS Air M is another tank that would be great to use. The coils last for weeks and they work great with higher VG. One tank is $10 and a pack of coils is $10. Fasttech does sell the coils cheaper and many say they are just as good as the original coils.

Nice Sirius. Who the heck is Wlad Woo? Does he have a sister named Deja, or did somebody already ask that...?

It's part of Wald Woo....A play on Wlad Foo and there are other mistakes in that OP as well..For instance I substituted Summer Tide for Moonlight Seranade! FUBAR I know but too late to change that now LeBeau[emoji12]

I always do 50/50. Good compromise between enough taste and not-too-much PG. Of course, I use a pretty lame set-up; Aspire ET-S tank atop an iTaste vv3. Works for me though.

That isn't lame. It's elegant and highly functional. Most importantly, as you said, it works for YOU! :)

Thank you, EleanorR! I started in January 2014 with these batteries and never moved on. And these tanks work well for me; they're glass and since I'm vaping citrus non-stop, I need that.
I believe in "shiny" in many areas (shoes, home furnishings, husbands), but I like my vaping simple...except for that next delicious new AHL flavor!

I'm with you on that, PennyLynn. I found my "perfect" (for me) set-up a couple of years ago, and have never felt the need to move on up to the next big thing. I like shiny-shiny, but for that I decorate my tanks with nail stickers so I can tell the flavors apart.
