Hey to all.. newbie here. I got the following from mbv, have steeped 24 hrs cap/dripper off, 48 hrs caps/drippers on. Dying to try some. Should I wait, or will any be good now? Using a clearomizer so I can't drip (or don't know how..)

555
venom
Cinnamon Roll
bananas foster
moo juice
spearmint
banana cream pie
double apple
kahlua
green ice
peach tobacco
sucker punch (freebie)
Spearmint was good to go the day it arrived IMO. Really nice clean mint!

I haven't tried the ice line.. mostly because fruity vapes just scare me but I think I have most of the other minty and menthol vapes and they're all pretty great.. candy cane to me is spectacular. I have a plain menthol bottle of juice.. all VG and it goes with a lot of stuff and is decent on it's own - except for the need to really shake the crap out of it every time I think of it.. the menthol crystals kind of reform..they seriously do not skimp on the ingredient there.
Extreme ice.. very good, though I do add sweetener. Spearmint.. tasty.. and teaberry, very very nice - though not a true mint it does belong in this category to me
YMMV

I have Lightning and Orange Ice. They are more menthol/mint than fruit, IMO, and I have reordered both in the past. Maybe you could request one of the Ice line as a sample with your next order. White Out is my favorite MBV mint so far.

Can you please not mention other vendors here? I only ask because it seems disrespectful when this is a MBV thread. I think MBV might carry these, if not they do have a good selection of accessories including all kinds of tanks, check it out:)

Actually,

I never even considered hardware before you brought it up, kinda took me by surprise but I can see your point. I think however that I did mention 5 of MBV's juices that I love and use in the tank so maybe that balances it all out.:toast:

I emailed James who's the boss at Mt. Bakervapor about the salted caramel destroying T3 coils. Here's his response...

Please let me know if you have any other questions, comments, or concerns..


So it looks like you can expect T3's to clog up fast with this flavor, but with it being so delicious I'm sure I can find a different tank to vape it out of. I really need to learn how to use a RBA!

The double apple should be ok...after a while it will turn a pretty pale green and thats when its really good. I have heard the tobacco ones needs about at least 2 weeks. Never tried them.

I have found if you get 2 flavor shots they get better tasting quicker but don't go overboard or it gets too perfumy!

Double apple is starting to turn, but just barely. I'll wait a few more days. Going to wait the full 2 weeks on the tobacco flavors. Thanks for the info!

Thanks for posting. I suppose he's right that not all flavors will work with the clearos, aside from cracking the tanks. However, it would have been nice if he had indicated why Salted Caramel clogs the coils (sugar? salt?). That bit of information would help decide what device to use. RBAs are getting a bit easier now, since you can buy pre-rolled stainless steel wicks. You still have to wrap your own coils, but it just takes some practice. If you have a device like Vamo or Provari, it can read the resistance of the coil you have wrapped...or you can use a multimeter. I'm just getting into RBAs now (after literally a month of reading on ECF). I thought it would be much more complicated than it really is, and it can be a great vape.

I'm wondering if a carto tank would be okay? I have one, I much prefer my ViVi Novas though!

I have a friend who's sending me a Genny style atomizer that uses mesh. He's going to teach me how to make coils through Skype and emails. I just hope I can get it. It can't be that hard right lol?

i just hope you are more mechanically inclined than i am, firewing. i am hopeless when it comes to rebuilding anything! (especially relationships) :p

Lol I'm not mechanically inclined at all! I'm having anxiety I won't be able to do it lol... But if I can't I'll try and get hubby to do it for me. He's very mechanically inclined, just opposed to ecigs. He still smokes and has the mindset that he refuses to replace one habit with another. I love vaping, he doesn't know what he's missing lol...
