More help needed eliquids

[oldfatguy]

I am going to order a sample pack of five 5ml bottles of e liquid from wordup. the cost is about twenty dollars. first question is this a good price being aware I may like all five or not like any but will have that info for future reference. also what is the difference between USP grade propylene Glycol-kosher 99.9 percent pure food grade and 50/50 mix pg&vg 99.9 % pure food grade.
that all might as well be in a foreign language to me. Ha

There are two kinds of bases for e-juice, PG and VG. It can be mixed with 100% of either, or any blend in between.

PG gives more throat hit, a little less vapor, and is much thinner. Some people are sensitive to PG and cannot vape it.
VG is a lot thicker, has more vapor, less throat hit, and can be difficult to use in some cartomizers and such due to how thick it is.

You'll have to try different mixes to see what you like

As for price, it really does vary from vendor to vendor. I've seen cheaper and more pricey, it all comes down to what juices you like. I've never heard of wordup before.

Word up is one of the vendors listed on this site in the vendor section. I had them recommended by a friend and tried them. So far service and product seem fine, just still new and learning on my part.

Big fan of AVE juice so far (VG, I know some don't care for it). Still a newbie, though.

I began mixing my own juice a while back as it's dirt cheap, easy, and fun (not to mention having complete control over flavor strength) but before I mixed, I was an avid fan of Vaporbomb. I highly recommend them.

And hey Amnesiac, I'm going to be in your neck of the woods soon. Visiting my folks in Urbana.

PG only has TH if you have nicotine - PG in thin and lets through the most of nicotine's harshness = TH

VG is thicker, a bit sweeter, dulls TH (and dull flavor somewhat) and make the thicker longer lasting visible vapor

I like 70pg/30vg and sometimes 80pg/20vg

Backwoods Brew is good (should reopen soon if not already - he was catching up on orders)
I also vape some of FreedomSmokeUSA and Velvet Vapors

Have been very fond of the VaporRenu. I ordered it at 70% PG, 20% VG, and 10% 'flavor enhancer' not really sure what it is though, lol. Like the fact that they will put vitamin b12 in there for me as well.
