Crave organic juice, please help

[Happyme2014]

Hello
I need help with Crave organic ejuice. I got a big order from them.... they smell beautiful, but unfortunately they are simply unvpable for me.
To put it in simple words, the liquid isn't necessarily thick, ( although 100% organic VG), but once you start vaping it, even the clearer, thinner juices ( such as Pina Colada), turn into a dark brown, almost black, burnt smelling, thick glue inside the clearomizer. I used iclear16 on itaste vv3.
Now I tried mixing them with some "normal" juice , from other vendors.. the process of browning and thickening is slower, but still happening.
What to do with them? I spent a lot of money on them.....
I can't believe I have to say bad things about Crave, they seemed so awesome, great support too, but the juice is just unvapable!
I bough a lot from Crave thinking it was healthier.... ( organic, no artificial flavors, colors, all purely organic ).
Help!!!!!

I have no idea but let's bump you back up in the stream ... someone knows

Sorry to hear that! What are you using to vape that juice? Could it be that you have too high voltage/wattage and are burning your juice? Could you perhaps have a really dirty coil that is imparting color to the liquid? It's hard to tell without knowing a little more about the set up you are using! Could you perhaps post some before/after pics?

First I'd recommend not making large orders when first trying a juice vendor!

To rule it out, are you using a fresh, clean iclear? Almost sounds like your wicks and/or coils are gunked up.

The thickening of the juice has me kinda stumped. Does Crave thin the VG with PGA possibly?

I have some Crave Juice on hand. 1 Flavor Chai I did not like so I added so PG?VG 50/50 and another flavoring + nic[ Crave is from Canada no nic] Works Fine in My RTA's Russian-RSST's-iHybrid Pure and my Evods. I have a 60 mil their tobacco again added 60 mils of PG/VG 50/50 another tobacco flavor concentrate and Nic. Do not know if that helps or not Crave would not be 100% VG needs at least some distilled water or PG based flavoring . What I ended up with was about 25PG/75VG

I'm putting my .02 that it's a mix of cheap juice and power settings. I'm interested to hear what you are vaping that iclear on/what type of coil you're using in the iclear (ohm wise).

Ok....
well, I did wash my clearomizers with hot water, and dried them, just to remove any trace of other flavors... the wicks looked white and clean before filling them up with the Crave juice...
They are iclear 16, dual coil, I believe 2.1 ohms, ( this one I have no idea what it means). I used them with the EgoT and with Itaste VV3, tried to play with the voltage/wattage with no positive results. The Iclear16 DC came with my Itaste VV3 I bought, from my smoke shop, definitely not fakes.
As for the ingredients in this Crave juices.... organic VG 100%, zero PG or alcohol, organic natural flavoring and spices.....
Pics I don't know how to post, nor do I have time.....
Any more suggestions?
Oh, and yes, I learned my lesson... I have over 500 ml of various juices from different vendors, I wont' buy large orders again, especially from vendors I don't know....
thanks to all!!!!

Do you have any other atomizers you can try besides the iClear?
I'm struggling with the fact that you are having the same issues with multiple flavors.
I guess it is possible you received a bad batch from Crave. Juice will usually darken as the nicotine ages. Might want to contact the juice vendor.

EDIT: Just read roosterado's post above...no Nic in Canada...there goes that theory!!

 

[Happyme2014]

nope...zero nicotine, zero pg....

nope...zero nicotine, zero pg....

As far as I know when they say 100% Vg its still thinned with something like 10% distilled water

Well , I bought some Aspire clearomizers .... Much better results ... Still I need to mix them with something else . The guy at Crave was super nice and helpful too .... But I guess I'll still order 80/20 vg/pg next time I order from them , I didn't see before they had that option . And now I see I can get the juice with nic in it too .... I must admit , in therms of flavor , Crave is still one if the best . But vg 100% is just not working well ....
