I swear they have stuff buried in their warehouse even they don't know about. I waited 10 days for them to get atomizer seats in in a color I wanted. They were out of red, dark blue, light blue, and green. No go.
I emailed them asking if it was going to be a long wait to get some in stock, and if it was, I'd just buy them someplace else. Two hours later I get a reply that they are back in stock.

That very well may be the case. Some vendors only list portions of stock so they don't get cleared out immediately, might be just what 101 does. Or they might have logistics/staffing issues, be lazy, and it's highly probably one of those Chinese outfits watched enough Star Trek that they cloned a teleportation deck for shipping stuff. If the last bit is the case, fasttech needs to step their game up. :)

They had the brass Kraken clone in stock last night, too - it's OOS now, naturally. Probably for the best, cause otherwise I'd want to buy it.

I clean when....

The taste pretty much disappears.
or
The smoke level goes way down.
or
You get a toasty taste that won't go away.

To clean the coils I take off the chimney, dump the flavor wicks and let the head sit in alcohol overnight. Then I put the coils in super hot water to get rid of the alcohol funk. Let airdry, put in new flavor wicks, put chimney back on. This buys you about another 4 days.

I don't like to dry burn, as this fries the conductor and then the head is toast.

"Taste pretty much disappears". Excellent. That means it's time to clean.

I'll preface this with a really big SORRY JAMES

That's the worst thing I've found with MBV so far. A lot of the descriptions are cut/paste with no real information. Luckily I know which flavors are FW & I go to another site to read there, come back to MBV & will place my order with them. Reviews... yeah, I don't even read them anymore. 80% are people who don't understand how to age their juices & the majority of the rest give something like, "It's great!", "I love this!", etc... but nothing that helps me decide if I would actually want to try it.

Agreed. I hate the way too wordy, flowery descriptions, but a basic description is crucial.
I also thing *every* juice vendor should have a ranking system and a place for customer comments on each liquid. If a juice is loved by a lot of people, that steers me to that juice. MBV does have the ratings and reviews, so that helps.

I just got some Banana Nut Bread liquid from them last week. Steeped for only 4 days and it was good to go. The stuff is amazing! I wrote a review for and I think it's the second review from the top.

Hi Discordian. Glad you like the Banana Nut Bread; that's one I haven't been brave enough to try yet. :)

I'm assuming I can replace the flavor wicks with cotton?

Yes, you can.

One of the things that attracted me to MBV (besides this thread of course) is that they are not afraid to post negative reviews on their juices .... I'm always suspect when EVERYBODY LOVES the flavor and it's spot on everytime.

I saw that and 'ooohed' and actually thought of you. But the thinking of you had nothing to do with the Kraken. I, just, oh ... I'VE SAID TOO MUCH! ;)

Think I will wait before I jump on any new gear, I want to up my DIY game so I'm waiting until Monday to make a significant order with RTS. And I'm saving for a Reo, think I'll be ordering in the next week if things wiggle my way.

I see the formatting is going to be off on this, oh well!

This is a list of MBV Juices that I like for one reason or another, I made this
list for myself so that I know which ones I like, there are others that I have
tried and found that I either do not like them at all or they just aren't ones
that I care to vape but others love them, taste are very subjective and it's
a personal preference thing. I have found that while I love certain bakery
items to eat, I do not care for vaping them, such as Cinnamon Bun, love eating
them, just can seem to take to vaping them.

As another point of reference for my personal taste and due to the fact that
I have severe sinus issues I am adding what I use as an overall guide for
adding extra flavor shots to my juices that I get from MBV. this is only
a reference and as there are some people that have much better taste buds
you may wish to try the MBV juices stock and adjust after testing the juices
for youself, depending on your PG/VG percentage ratios. I personally only
get either 50/50 or a 65/35 PG/VG ratio and over the past 8 months after
quitting smoking I had in increased decline for the need of a strong Throat Hit
and have increased my VG ration accordingly. In addtion I was a strong menthol
smoker and when I first started vaping all the juice I was getting all
contained menthols to some degree, menthol still comes to play for me but on a
much more limited basis and also help "ME" when I have a bout of Vaper's Fatique
or Vaper's Tongue, whichever term you prefer. I have also lowered my nicotine
intake from the begging of 36mg and am now using a percentage of 6mg and 12mg
and very rarely now 18mg, this also lessens the throat hit.

My shot ratios are for 50/50 = 3 extra shots, 65/35 = 2 extra shots.

Below is a Ledgend as to my preferences for these specific juices.

***Note - Personally I found that term "All day Vape" to be inaccurate and
have rarely seen anyone have 1 single juice flavor that they vape exclusively
all day long without switching. So I am referring to mine as "Through out the
day rotation" TDR

TDR = Throughout the day rotation/also a must have juice for me
MIX = Juice used for mixing with others, very rarely vaped by itself
OCC = Occasional Vape
AGE = My personal preference for the time in weeks for the juice to be aged
OOM = Juice I find to be vapable "Out of the Mail" however it will still
benefit from a bit of aging but not mandatory to get a pleasureable vape

As Sean said, yes you can, just make sure not to let it dry out as it will have a very nasty taste if it gets burned! I don't know if there is anything as nasty as that, I'm sure there is, but I most certainly do not with to find out. :unsure:

Maybe cucumber - mint.....lets ask Mcol

If you like that, try their Bananas Gone Nuts. The original MBV Banana Nut Bread, and in my mind, all kinds of superior. There is anise or something in the new blend I just do not like. Just a suggestion, Bananas Gone Nuts is top shelf MBV, light, smooth, banana bread yum.

Not to mention, once you get that dry burned cotton flavor, it tends to linger. Blech!
