cut with vegtable glycerin - much less flavor?

[asidrave]

ok so i got some frontier vg and cut my puresmoker 24mg menthol and ruyandirect RY4 high 50/50......now the flavor is barely there

when i cut the same 50/50 with wilton glycerine i didnt lose much flavor.

has this happen to anyone else

Is it possible that the frontier glycerine is thicker/thinner or not as pure as the wilton? I have been using humco glycerine (not as pure and probably not the best choice) and it works great...but I add flavor every time. Technically you're diluting your flavor as well as your nicotine...so I"m suprised you didn't notice a flavor change with the wilton as well.

Or may it possibly be that your got a stronger batch at one point? I'm sure that's not the case if you bought from same supplier or if you are using the same liquid originally anyways. I just diluted some of david yangs with VG and there was no flavor loss, but they were overly flavored to begin with and were hitting way too hard with NO vapor because I could NOT stand the hard hit. The one time I have welcomed diluting without adding flavor! Still tastes great!

hmmmm....makes sense PotV...had to shorten your name

to bump the flavor of the RY4..i added 2 drops of caramel to 4ml and its a bit better now

the frontier glycerin is a bit thinner than the wilton glycerine....i wonder if the frontier has its own slight flavor that maybe kills the liquid flavor.

tasted it...yea it does...its sort of sweet...tastes weird...

tasted wilton glycerine...different taste..cant make it out.

that has to be it...maybe?

What it might be down to is the water content of the glycerine. The thinner glycerine will have more water inside and the water is affecting the taste by reducing the vapor production.

I bought Frontier VG last week and it totally clogged my atomizer up. It took several cleanings to fix it. I switched to Wiltons

I just got some wiltons.. but it does not say 100% pure , Vegetable or USP anywhere on the bottle.. so I am not sure if I got the right one.. did I?

It just says.. "Wilton, Glycerine, Restores consistency of icing colors"

Wilton is 99% USP. It is fine to use.

I have some Wiltons downstairs that I have been using for cutting. Their VG is fairly thick, so you will probably need to dilute it some (between 10% to 20%) with distilled water. After it is the right consistency, then mix it with your nic juice and flavor. It is talked about in a number of DIY threads on the forum. Definitely food grade - people eat icing!

Thanks for the recipe... new at e-cigs and way overestimated the strength of juice. I'll be looking for this later today.

Can someone makes soem suggestions as to just how much of a cut is good? do you cut it in the bottle or can it be cut by the cart x/x drops? Sorry... needing to cut something that really kicks as well as the nic.
