Hey guys! just wondering about flavor shots from mt baker vapor
i wanna order PG 20% / VG 80%
i ordered one bottle before of 20 / 80 but there was no flavor in it
so if i was to add 3 shots to 20 / 80 would it taste like PG 80% / VG 20%

so i am kinda wondering is each flavor shot equivalent to say

example
1 shot at PG 20% / VG 80% = more flavor like PG 50% / VG 50%
2 shots at PG 20% / VG 80% = more flavor like PG 65% / VG 35%
3 shots at PG 20% / VG 80% = more flavor like PG 80% / VG 20%
4 shots at pg 20% / VG 80% = more flavor like PG 100%
and so on

i know i made this confusing lol but that's what i was wondering
Thanks guys!

i want to put in my order tonight on mtbakervapor sense my Provari mini will be here on friday and i cant wait to get it

I think I understand what you mean, but I would say no, each flavor shot can't work like that, otherwise if you get 5 flavor shots, how will it taste then? like 120% PG :D

It seems more arbitrary than that, some liquids need no shots (like black or extreme ice) and others, like their teas need 2 shots. I've never tried more than 2 shots as some of their flavoring can taste perfumey and I don't want to increase that.

I know you want to order tonight, but I highly recommend getting on their website early tomorrow and talking to a live tech - these are the same guys that will probably be mixing your juice - they are vapers too and super friendly. As they ship fast, you might still get it by Friday.

Apart from the 'ices', I pretty much get all of their flavors with 1 or 2 shots (65/35 or 50/50 at 18mg)

PG/VG ratio doesnt really have anything to do with your flavor. When they say flavor shot they mean they are adding an extra bit of concentrated flavor. The more shots, the stronger the flavor. So, Higher PG = more throat hit, but less vapor, and higher VG = more vapor, but a weaker throat hit. So you can get an 80 PG/20 VG juice with 3 extra shots, and its still gonna vape like an 80/20 juice with 0shots.

Basically things dont really "taste" like pg/vg, they "vape" like pg/vg, and your flavor shots arent going to change how the juice vapes, just how it tastes.

Well splitting hairs, if the flavoring used is a 100 PG or 100% VG and you get a few shots of them, you may change the ratio by a few points either way so say instead of 20/80, it may turn out to be 22/78 if it's 100% PG... but I agree with you, flavor is flavor. Again, a quick 2 minute conversation with one of their mixers will determine what flavoring mix they use and how it will affect the ratio.

I don't have experience with higher VG content from MBV, but I tend to get one or two flavor shots with everything at 65/35% PG/VG 12mg. I also tend to like my liquid on the more flavorful side in general as a reference point.

Thanks buddy helps me out alot man
i was gonna do 3 but now i know to stay with 1 or 2

Sure thing - glad I lucked out and guessed the right answer lol

I hope you like a strong in-your-face pretty much pure menthol flavor. I can't detect much else going on with that juice - but it is good. I have a 15ml almost gone and a 50 ml in reserve steeping right now - but that juice is good straight out of the mailbox.

Enjoy it with your provari :toast:
