For sub-ohm, would cooler/minty vapes be better? I know it's probably completely preference. But I've been vaping a fruit blend, 80% VG / 20% PG, 6MG, at 0.5 Ohm, between 25 and 30 watts. It comes through pretty warm, but I feel with the direct lung hit, I'm just not getting enough flavor. Which seems weird since I've read that sub-ohm should generate more flavor. Just wondering if a menthol blend might bring out the flavors more. I vaped a similar fruit blend with mouth to lung and I get plenty of flavor. Obviously, taste buds play a huge factor on a mouth to lung hit.

Just curious what other vapers enjoy when sub-ohming. I was never a menthol guy when smoking analogs but I might give it a try with vaping.

I vape sub ohm (RDA deck built to a .34 ohm) zephyrus RTA
-I've tried multiple flavor and some give better than others. I typically chain vape when I start puffing and I find that after about 2-3 solid pulls it heats up a bit and I get really good flavor

It could have something to do with the wattage you're running it at, start low and work your way up to figure out what works best for you

But I've found that getting the best flavor out of your juice has everything to do with what you personally crave for

I've actually starting doing more 65/35 mixes with dessert/fruit vapes lately. Makes a big difference for me, as some of the custard or cream flavors seemed to be a little softer in the 80/20.

Also, 30 watts might just not be enough for sub ohm on a dripper. I know it's different for all the setups, but you might want to experiment with the gauge of your coils too. I know going from 26 to 24 on my first setup made a huge difference.
