E liquid flavor new @this

[mga123]

OK I started with a smoke 51 trio and now have 2 510s but I have not found comfort in this new method of smoking I dont know if i got the inhaling right and it makes me cough-and then I got interested in flavors beside tobacco (PS I am still smoking real cigarettes)
So I been reading and reading about flavors and see so many different suggestions
Read about Lorann flaovors, Capella etc
So today I thought on a whim I would just go to my local grocery store and see what they had to offer they had McCormick Imitation Coconut Extract (Gluten Free -Water-Alcohol 21%Propylene Glycol-Artifical Flavors) and Imitation Banana Extract(Gluten Free-Water-Alcohol 34%-Propylene Glycol-Natural and Artficial Flavors)...I thought I would try the Coconut so I put about 4 drops Coconut and 2 drops Glycerine in a clean smoke 51 tip and tried it out
To make a long story short did not get much taste at all
I am sure I must be missing something with the electronic cigarette experience
I have been trying out the 510 with the store bought carts with Marl/High and still i am not getting
So please give me some ideas all around Thanks Again

the McCormick are very week compared to the other brands of flavoring, as far as the flavoring goes there are some recipe's for them on here.. you can also just order the flavored e-liquids from the list of suppliers on the bottom of the forum..

if it is making you cough I am not 100% sure but i think it is the vg fluids that are not as harsh of a vaper..

Read my post (510 - Day 6). Very intersting to me, the "tobacco" flavors that I specified as part of my order are terrible. The "freebie" that they tossed in to my order is already my fave, Cherry Coke, of all things. I take huge draws, get huge vapor, I DON'T CHOKE, and the taste is great. Go figger!

E-liquid vapor is nothing like tobacco smoke/flavor. So do not set your expectations to that level. You either will or will not adjust to vapor versus smoke. No one can recommend a flavor of e-juice for you as taste is very subjective. Try as many samplers as your budget allows to narrow down to your favorites.

Agree completely that taste is subjective.

Juices with PG irritate my throat as well. I am now trying the VG juices and so far they are a lot cooler and do not make me cough. Also get a larger volume of vapor with VG.

Drawback is that it is VERY thick and takes some time to sink into a cart.

I had that same experience when I started and I had to cut my juice with some 0mg. e-juice and it worked pretty good. As far as the flavors go I think that is pretty much each to his own. Also I drew in a little easier and slower. Good luck.

thanks for your concerns and recommendations
tonite I ordered 7 flavors from Bettys Country Grocery $1.04 a piece (a dram or teaspoon a piece) well see I only ordered the flavors recommended for vaping on the forum so we'll see
I also have Vermont Vapors 36mg tobacco and I mixed up about half and half in drops with Glycerine from Michaels Craft Store
That was good tobacco taste I smoke alot Marlboro red pack but I really want to switch over I just don't want to choke myself with 510 or trio!
I can get started with my new 510 and the 6 carts of Marl High
I seem to like the Glycerine because it makes alot of smoke but as everyone says I need to get comfortable with things but I am having trouble dropping regular cigarettes and hopefully it will be a better habit and the 510 performance will be a little more predictable...because God forbid if I don't have something to smoke when I need to smoke!
