Lorann Coffee vs Keoke Coffee

[julianka]

I know Keoke tends to be the preferred coffee flavor for ejuice, but my question is: is there anybody successfully using regular Lorann coffee flavor with no problems? I bought some of it, taste is FABULOUS, but it's dark and opaque and doesn't produce much vapor. I thought I had killed an atomizer with it (which I did NOT, the atty is working good as now after a cleaning), but I just can't seem to get much vapor from the stuff. Is the Keoke really better? (What IS Keoke coffee anyway? I've never heard that term before.)

I bought some coffee juice from Tasty vaping, and I'm disappointed. It doesn't taste bad, but it doesn't really taste like coffee to me. It's sweet like maybe coffee with a creamer. I want sheer black coffee taste, and the Lorann coffee flavoring is perfect, I just need more vapor than it gives me. I use VG in my juice too.

Let me google that for you

Keoke Coffee is a coffee liquor flavoring. Similar to Kahlua liquor in flavor.

Thanks, Renaissancepuffer. I'm afraid it won't really work for me then. I might give the regular coffee flavoring one more try. It seems to work okay in my husband's manual
M401, I'm just never satisfied with the vapor it gives me in my automatics.

I have mixed up some incredibly dark liquids, and they vape great. You may want to get some VG to add to your liquid. It doesn't really take much to a PG base liquid to add a great deal of vapor.

I do use VG in my juices, I wonder if I should try the coffee flavoring again and use either more water or less coffee flavoring. It doesn't seem like I want to do that though, so maybe more water and less VG? I use the ejuice calculator and usually use 5% water, 20% flavoring, the rest VG. If I bumped up the water to 10% and cut the VG down accordingly, I'm thinking that might give more vapor because it will thin it out and be less likely to gunk up my atomizer. Does this make sense?

the water might be your problem with no vapor. 5% seems high.

I love the flavor but it is so strong. I gunked up my atty with a very week mixture. I am waiting for someone to advise me on how to use it successfully. I have been using Bickfords coffee for quite a while. I put a few drops of the Loranns coffee in that mix and it is good but I added a bit too much.

I am using Capella with success. 4 drops to 20. It is dark but good vapor.

You know I was thinking about trying Faeries Finest. I've heard it's clear.

On the water, I was considering that more water might make less vapor, on the other hand, it might make more because it would be cutting down on the thickness. I think I'm just going to have to play around until I figure it out.

I use the coffee flavor alot. I ended up making a bottle of 50% coffee 50% everclear so that one drop is only 50% of the Lorann's coffee flavor. It is just too strong for me straight. My liquids do not turn out terribly dark using the 50% mixture.

Personally, I don't like the Keoke flavor much. I make a mean Kalhua liquid myself using the coffee. I have used the keoke occasionally but it's not much to write home about.

JMHO

 

[julianka]

You know - it might be my atomizer. I have four atomizers. Some are better than others. I finally got brave and tried the coffee on my best one - so far, so good.

I just got Lorann Coffee from an ebay seller a few weeks ago. Is it supposed to be dark as heck and also very think like a syrup? It killed an atty deader than a door nail.
I used 36mg flavorless cut to 12mg using VG and the coffee flavoring. Coffee flavoring was at 20% of mix. Very vile, I had to shake and shake the mix for it to properly mix.

I also got Koeke Coffee. It was dark also but not thick. Strong flavor and does not kill the atty. I do add a touch of Lorann caramel to the Koeke and it is yummy.

So is Coffee supposed to be thick?

Mine is dark as hell, and it scares me to use it. I did try it once, and when the atty got a little dry it got a serious burnt taste that just makes me think it was leaving deposits behind. I no longer use it.

Mine is not thick, though. Not even as thick as PG, I would say. If you describe it to be "like syrup" then I would toss it out.


The Keoke is delicious. One of my 3 favorite flavorings.

 

[RobertY]

Scottes,
That is what I did. I tossed the coffee out. I guess I will have to find a different ebay seller to get the coffee flavor from as that ebay seller may have gotten a bad batch.

If you also have Lorann Caramel add a touch of that to the Keoke. Really blends well and sets it off. MMMmmm...

I do use Lorann Coffee and I LOVE the flavor too. I mix 20% Flavor, 35% VG and the rest PG. I do have both PG and VG base for my nic and make my adjustment. Somehow PG in the mix makes a difference. IMO

I find that the more VG I use the harder the atty works with the standard battery. It might be my mind playing tricks on me

The Flavoring already has water in it and therefore produce less vapor if you thin it out with water, the more your atty will have to work. It taste different with different voltages. Vapes best when not using the standard battery. I use my 510 passthrough with a 10440 320mAh battery in it.

i read this thread and went and mixed some 0 nic coffee using the loranns i bought - hadn't tried it yet

i wanna say this stuff is THICK AND DARK

i decided to use an older atomizer since it might have damaged it

first i wanna say that when dripping on the bridge i noticed a slower absorbtion as well as color staining the bridge -this stuff is dark


i made a 3ml bottle with about 60%pg, 35% VG, and 5 drops of coffee flavor

and it still doesnt vape well

even at low content where im getting barely nay flavor... im about to sell this flavoring on the site lol - any bids?

thansk for the thread - im glad i didnt decide to gunk up a new atty by not testing it.

anyone successfully vaping this? i'm using a blu right now.

 

[kno]

after vaping for a few minutes this is what ive found

- the atty only produces decent vapor once the liquid starts to thin or be burned more - this is where i usually get the burnt taste on this atty - however the coffee seems to have masked that and i cant even taste/smell the bruning -

can coffee lorann ressurect nasty atty's? time will tell! i'll use this 3ml all day today to see the result.

 

[kno]

40 minutes in - the masked burning taste is making me sick

 

[Scottes]

With LorAnn Coffee and 35% PG I would add quite a bit of distilled water or vodka to thin it.

But I had the same experience as you describe - tough vaping, burnt taste, and fear of destroying atomizers.

I won't throw it out - I can use this in some recipe, or even in a coffee milkshake. But I won't vape this stuff.


Now if I could get a bottle without the artificial coloring... THAT would be nice. Maybe we should ask them...?
