Hi everyone, i received my first order from Ms. T yesterday. For anyone who is curious, I ordered 4 sample bottles: gooey butter cake, caramel apple, cinnamon rolls, and french toast. I don't want to offend anyone here, but I can't say I was incredibly impressed. In terms of flavor, the only one i really didn't like the caramel apple...it does not compare to the vendor I usually order from (whom i will not disclose, out of respect for Ms. T, I know she works hard). The gooey butter cake and cinnamon rolls were good, and I will finish the bottles, but the flavors are a little too subtle for me.

Now for my question: with all that said^^, the french toast was the only flavor that i would say "blew me away" in terms of flavor. Now here is my issue: First off I always try new flavors on brand new attys. New attys probably take anywhere between 10-30 hits to really break in, so you can't get a fair first impression until you use it for a few hours before you go to bed, then wake up with a fresh perspective.
This juice is not performing well on my atty, but i LOVE the flavor. I know the juice is very dark, but it does not seem to burn well at all. the atty floods easily, and i still get the burnt/dry atty taste even when i know there is jucie in there (it gurgles), but then when I redrip to revive the flavor, there ends up being so much liquid in there that it suffocates the flavor/vapor production. I often have to blow out the atty to get the excess out, but even then it only takes about 3 drip cycles for the performance to drastically decrease. The liquid in the atty starts to build up and it begins to flood, making it much less than enjoyable. (vaping frequency has nothing to do with it...ive tried chain vaping, and ive tried 10min between hits)

Does anyone else experience this, and is there any solution to it other than having to blow out the atty every 3-or-so drip cycles?

Thanks! :vapor:

Hi there, Brandon here from Ms T's. Thanks for your order from us! I notice right away that the flavors you purchased are ones that will improve with a little steep time. Many of Ms T's juices do this, and will taste quite different after about a week or so of age. Don't give up on them just yet, you actually picked some very popular flavors.

As far as the French Toast goes, yes, it is very dark. I believe this does have a bit of an effect on how it burns. It also kind of depends on your hardware. You say you are using new atties, and depending on the type, I have noticed different break in times. LR atties don't seem to have much break in time at all, actually almost none. Often using a standard resistance 510 atty, I have noticed that it can take almost a day for it to start vaping well. What kind of battery are you using? Personally, I think the very dark juices (like French Toast) seem to burn well at higher than 3.7v, but no more than 4.8 or 5v. Since Ms T uses the same base VG/PG mixture in every juice, the flavorings added can make a difference in flavor/vapor production. I believe that the very dark ones require a slightly higher burn temperature to be optimal. If you are using something like a standard 510 battery, I could certainly see where the power output may not be high enough to create the effect you are looking for.

If you like the French Toast but not the darkness of it, I might also recommend the Blueberry Pancakes or Strawberry Pancakes flavors. They are lighter, and the flavor is amazing.

I am using an LR (2.0-2.5ohm) bridgeless atty on a 4.2v resisted GLV.....i like the pancakes suggestion, as you can probably, that's right on my preferred flavor zone. i like the breakfast vapes.

I should also mention, this is not the first french toast juice that ive had this problem with, so it is not a "Ms. Ts problem", but it does seem to be worse this time. Either way its frustrating because the first few hits i had with it were mindblowing. With that said, this is the advantage to buying sample bottles. Not everyone is going to like every juice. Ill let the others steep. thanks for responding.

I am unfamiliar with a 4.2v resisted GLV, if it is a dual battery setup it should be more than that (unless you have something custom, of course). I have a GLV2 resisted at 5v (and a 3.7v mini), and I know he can make them in 6v, or unresisted 7.4v. If it is a mini (one battery), it should be 3.7v.

If it is 4.2v and you are using a 2.5ohm atty, you are probably only getting a little over 7 watts to the atty. This does seem a bit low to me. It seems like the sweet spot for most of T's juices is somewhere between 9 and 12 watts, depending on the juice of course. At 2ohm, you would be at 8.82 watts... almost there. I would recommend maybe a 1.8 LR, or possibly even a 1.5 (definitely 1.5 if you actually have a 3.7v device). I have personally used a 1.8ohm bridgeless that worked ok on my Mini. It seemed to work pretty well. I do nothing but drip and I have actually been a bit disappointed with bridgeless. I can't seem to use one of those without it leaking. My atties of choice are standard Joye 510s. 1.5ohm LRs for my 3.7v devices, 2.5ohm (and occasionally 3ohm) for my 5v and VV devices. They perform well and last and last and last!
