I'm not BigLebowski, but would like to say the micro coil is a great technique on the IGO-L. I use cotton, so it's a much more mellow vape than ss (which I find to be harsh). The flavor is great, but the location of the coil relative to the airhole is key for me to find great flavor. There are several very helpful members on the micro coil thread.

OK this is just getting silly now. Just did my 1st micro, 12 wraps of 30 ga with a cotton wick.

Well, that looks like it works!! :thumb: When you experiment with just tiny adjustments of the coil in front of the air hole, you can actually influence some notes in the flavor of your juice. You can build the coil with very long legs and set the coil close to the rim directly in front of the air hole. Just a little adjustment up or down in front of the coil can make a difference in flavor.

Since receiving my vapemail Monday afternoon and getting my sample of Berry Treat I had been anxious to try it out. Well after two Protanks full and about 30 minutes of dripping in the last 24 hours, I finally think I figured out all the flavors...

3 parts...

2 parts...

and 1 part...

The berry mix appears to be Strawberries, Raspberries, and Blackberries (YUM) I'm also wondering if there are cranberries in there as well. It appears to be a little extra tart with this one.

This liquid gives identical results when running at high or low volts/watts, but gets muted (looses the berry flavor)in the middle range. I have not had a juice do this to me before, the middle is usually, well the middle. Not good or bad. But for the tartness of the berries go high or low. No matter what range you will still have the full mouth feel from the cream along with a slight maple flavor.

This juice is not only tart, it is also very sweet. But with that being said I have not had the coil crud up in the slightest (2 tank fulls). The sweet and tart do balance each other out pretty well. But I will add that I would personally like a touch less sweet myself. Most everyone else will probably prefer it this way though.


James if/when you see this I give this juice :thumbs:


If anyone else has received this as a sample and you are letting this steep. I would like to remind you (or let you know), that these flavors were made to be sampled right away so they can get feedback on whether to add these to their site or not. That way when you give honest feedback, you have a direct hand in shaping what offerings MBV offers to the public in the future. Pretty cool deal if you ask me :toast:

My Mind is officially blown!

BTW if anyone hasn't tried cotton balls for wicks (boiled first just to be safe) you are missing out.

They hold a ton of juice and give more taste, just DONT EVER DRY BURN!!!!

I actually buy the sterile cotton balls from the drug store. They run about $3, and no boiling necessary.

Did I say MBV makes great juice? They do! Trying to keep it a little on topic :)


EDIT: Kelli, that just can't be ignored! :D

I am giving my juice a nice bath to see if that helps out with them all tastin the same. Wish me luck cuz im rumning low on good juice just have. Only if I have to juice and a few thick dark juices that will mess up my pro tank heads. But on the good side of the board I got a plain chocolate brown ceramic tooth brush holder from dollar tree works like a charm....
Try discountvapors.com 5 protank cores at 2.5oHms 5.96$

Yeah I ordered 25 from high desert vapes a 5 pac for just over $6

How are the micro coils working out for you, I have only been doing 3 or 4 wraps and it works fine but after perusing that link you posted i am intrigued to say the least. Is there really a big flavor difference and how does that compare to SS

I haven't dabbled in SS because of the PIA of oxidizing and the break in time. I was also doing the 4/5 wrap with 32g and it works well but since using the "microcoil" with 30g has been producing amazing everything. I don't think I will be doing anything but that for a while, but like Stoneface said, cotton is a great too and it works great in my BCC's but I think I would end up with a mouth full of burnt cotton. I have a bunch of cotton yard and cotton balls so eventually I will give it a try but for me ekowool and a lot of tiny/tight coils is where I'm at right now.
