Help. Would like a throat hit substitute for my 0mg DIY

[Arctherus]

So, I have vaped 0mg for over a year now. I recently vaped someones DIY juice, that had a small amount of nicotine, (probably below 6mg, as I've vaped 6mg and found the throat hit too strong. Lol), and I felt like I finally understood throat hit, and why people like it. I would imagine the amount Was so low in the juice I tried, that I am contiplating on just adding a small ammount of nic to my juice.

However, the whole idea of vaping at 0mg is to keep it that way, I do not wish to work backwards. I am really looking for something to give a sensation such as this.

Menthol is not the solution for me. And neither is cinnamon. God, it is defineately not cinnamon (again, to show examples of my sensitivity haha)Some people have recommended Flash liquid. However, Im looking for other alternatives as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated guys.

Orange packs some throat hit.. koolada is a flavoring that adds an icy element without menthol... you can get koolada from the perfumer's apprentice... that's the least expensive option... koolada works well with fruits.

Perfumers Apprentice - Koolada 10% (PG)

Deaner! Awesome.

Thanks for the heads up on the koolada. Definitely interested in trying it out with some of my more lackluster juices.

The guy at my local B&M says he uses pepper for TH. Says it has no taste, just TH. As a joke, he has a juice on his bar labeled something like "try me" and it is only pepper with one heck of a TH and no taste (although many juices I can't taste much).

re: using pepper: Not everyone is immune to tasting pepper as an additive. I'm one of them and can pick it out in a heartbeat (so much so that I've had to start asking producers whether it is used in any of their products that I am interested in).

Koolada is something I would use with my menthol vapes, to replace the " medicine-y" taste of most mentol drops, atleast that I've experienced. I don't really care for a menthol-like experience for my bolder, less fruity vapes. Using pepper has been considered.

I just exchanged an email this evening with Paul, a mixologist from MFS. I was asking anout his pg/vg ratios since I was vaping 100% VG but have lately grown to love the throat hit from pg juices. On the subject of TH, he said "if you want more vapor and a strong throat hit you can add a couple of drops of grain alcohol to you juice."

haven't tried it yet... ymmv.

edit: just read in another thread where Kurt had said this, "Some people thin their VG juices with about 5% PGA. Not a fan, myself, since inhaled alcohol does in fact go right to the brain. Not at all surprised PG will do similar things, since it is more like ethanol than VG is. PGA (actually I used 100 proof vodka) also dries me out like PG does."

just wanted to add that, seems every coin has 2 sides, eh?

cheers,

I've read in some other threads on adding vinegar or lemon juice to mixes (not specifically for throat hit). I wonder if this could help? I have mixed my own 0mg for bedtime vaping; I'll try some PGA and maybe vinegar or lemon juice to see if it helps.

Edit: Added PGA at 10% - no dscernable throat hit. Although it did seem to increase the vapor a lot!

You just add around 15% of vodka(no special brand). It will give you a throat hit. Don't worry about the alcohol, it isn't enough to give you a buzz of any kind.

yes, pga is a way... another is capsicum...
