I ordered several fruit and sweets from them..but they weren't my cup of tea...wondering about their coffee flavors..prices are great

Estaban, I have friends who love MBV's coffee vapes. I unfortunately cannot use MBV because of my daggone PG sensitivity, but I tried them and did like a lot of their juice. One thing, since you are new to vaping --- sometimes you have to let certain juices sit/steep for awhile before they get really good. Not sure which fruits and sweets you tried, but you might give them another vape in 2 or 3 weeks. Then again, you may still not like them, but just thought I would throw that out there. I've had some from multiple vendors I didn't like at all right out of the mailbox but revisited and they were astoundingly good.

I'm a noob and have bought a bunch of stuff from Mt Baker on your suggestions.
There is a taste of something in the juices that throws me off. It's in all the juices I got from there.
I didn't taste it in other vendor's juices.
I don't know anything about steeping but maybe that's what I need to do.
For instance the strawberry shortcake had that taste lurking in it. When I got it the juice was almost clear. Now that it's been sitting in my clearomizer for a week it's a darker shade of pink and tastes much better. I don't know if the taste is gone or if I have just gotten used to it. But now I love the strawberry shortcake.
I haven't smoked the other flavors long enough to give them a good chance.
I'm not a smoker and I ordered 18mg and that's why it's sitting in the clearomizer so long, I can only handle a little bit at a time or I get green.
I've just reordered a bunch in 6mg from Mt Baker, that'll probably help me enjoy it.
The price is great and the service is awesome. I'm just a noob and really don't know what to do with it
I'm using ego c twists with vision v3's and kanger t3's

I have found that the Mt Baker VG juices are a bit thick for my preference. I have a hard time getting them to wick in vivi nova and Kanger T3's. I have tried to cut the VG with PG or Distilled Water, and it doesn't seem to help. I also find that unless I order a couple extra shots of flavor, that the flavors are a bit flat. I do love his PG Carmel Coffee but find the Rye 4 to be very flat compared to other Rye 4's I have vaped. I would love to be a raving fan of Mt. Baker, but I am just not that thrilled with the juices (outside of the CC). The prices are right though :) I think maybe I just need to try some of his other flavors.

Hi Don. What PG/VG ratio did you order? I never had a problem with wicking MBV. The novas you do need to dip and swirl with most juices, just in case you did not know that. It's the same with other cleoros that are similar. The T3's, well lately I've been hearing people getting some bad ones and experiencing a lot of dry hits.

Regarding the RY4. I didn't like it at first, either. But, after about 3 weeks, I tried it again and WOW, it was good. I found the same thing with Caramel Candy. I never ordered with extra flavor shots.

To me, his Banana Nut Bread or maybe it was the Bananas Gone Nuts one were great right out of the mailbox.

Ok 2 things.... I've found that pretty much every juice from every vendor needs some amount of steep time. I've also found that the longer it steeps, the darker it gets, and the better the flavor. When your juice arrives take off the cap and the drip top, cover the top and shake the tar out of it. sit it up, a lot of people say a dark closet but I just leave it up on the mantle. You need to shake it every time you think about it and leave the cap off for 24 hours. I TRY to let it steep for a week but if my juice supply is low they don't steep as long.
2nd thing... if you weren't a smoker previously WHY are you getting any nic in the juice at all or am I misunderstanding? you do know that you can get 0 nic juice right? I think pretty much every vendor has that option which saves you from oding on nic that your body doesn't want or need. Just a thought.

thanks for the help
I want the nicotine buzz and appetite suppression. I used to smoke years ago. This is a tasty hobby :D

Hey guys what are you vaping out of?

I prefer direct dripping but Im thinking about trying out a Kanger T3, and need some suggestions/recommendations...

I use a Vapage Vmod XL. I use attys with it, and for tasting I drip, otherwise just fill up a bottle and "squonk" away! All the flavor from dripping, without the actual dripping. Lookup "Bottom Feeders" - they have a bottle of juice inside the unit that you tilt and/or squeeze to wet the atty from the bottom.

PansSiren, here here, good sir! Amazing review. I've thought about doing MBV reviews myself, not for any kind of discount, but just so other searchers can find out if maybe a flavor is worth a try.

Why no butterscotch, though? :) MBV has cornered the market on that flavor, IMO.

And double double thumbs up on the Pineapple Upside Down Cake. The most deliciously sweet dessert juice I've ever vaped.

My new constant re-orders:

Butterscotch
Caramel Coffee
Pineapple Upside Cake

I love Caramel Candy, but after the Nips flavor of Caramel Coffee, Caramel Candy just isn't deep enough for me.

It seems like things have really skyrocketed for James and co. after their Spinfuel feature. I'm beyond happy for them. They deserve it. They kept me in the game with their prices and flavors. Otherwise, juice would just be too expensive for me.

Wait, there's a discount?!? lol. I had no motive or incentive in that write-up, just wanted to share my thoughts with the community and feel like I contribute in a way.

I just popped in a new atty and I'm dripping pineapple upside-down cake, yeah, it's goooooooood! I ended up taking Bananas Gone Nuts with me to work and the pub last night, and I'm in love with that flavor. It went really well with the hoppy IPAs I was drinking, it's definitely me new bar vape!

Butterscotch, caramel candy, caramel coffee, red apple, and pistachio will be in my next order for sure, and I'm thinking maybe key lime, churro, cotton candy, waffles, and whipped cream as well. ...and all I wanted to do was quit smoking....... LOL!

No, no, PansSiren, jump into the deep end!

Butterscotch is my hands down, all day, all time vape. I used to smell like Old Spice Swagger. Now I smell like Butterscotch. LOL. ;-) No, really, I always have it next to me.

One thing I HIGHLY suggest about butterscotch... get at least 2 to 3 extra shots of flavoring. Trust me on this. Also, fight the urge to vape it right away. Steep it for at least ten days after the MADE ON date on the label. What I do to fend off my cravings is to just sniff the bottle. Weird, I know.

Caramel coffee is Nips candy heaven. I'd skip Churro altogether and get Cinnamon Roll. To me, that's exactly what it tasted like... those Taco Bell crispy churros. But then again, I'm very sensitive to cinnamon vapes, so others' opinions may differ, and I defer to them.

MBV offers a couple of ways to get a discount. One is to make a Youtube video reviewing their juice. You'll have to wait for a confirmation email before you can use the discount.

The other is "vaporfrombaker", which you type in the "online coupons code" box when ordering. That'll give you ten percent off, which almost pays for the shipping.

Well that's that then, 10 bottles of butterscotch, please! hahahaha

What I'm trying to do is build up a menu of flavors. I have a solid 6 months worth of juice (about 475mls), so I obviously don't NEED any more, but I like having a variety to choose from... and I'm only 2 months into vaping, so it's fun to try all the different flavors. I also go for the bigger bottles because it's usually a much better price per ml. Like with this last Mt. Baker order, 10 15ml bottles cost 50 bucks, and if I was in a store and the clerk said, "hey buddy, 20 more bucks and I'll double your order," I'd jump all over it. If there's a couple flavors in there that I'd reorder, I'm already saving money. Besides, MBV's 30ml bottles are cheaper than most others 15ml!

It's hard to choose when flavors are similar... like the churro and cinnamon roll - hard to choose which to try first! I'd go for both, but then I don't want 2 very similar flavors - but like I said, probably because I'm new and trying to taste a wide variety. A review on MBV for the churro was selling me with the "fresh donut dusted with cinnamon" comment. But now I see in the cinnamon roll comments, "tastes like the inner rolls of a cinnamon roll," and we all know that's the best part! hahaha. I'll go with your advice and pick up CR first. Thanks!

I used "ECF" as a 10% off code on my last order, and the "vaporfrombaker" code was mentioned inside my package. I do have a youtube channel, so maybe one day I'll do one... I feel kind of weird doing that sort of thing though, taste is just so subjective and you can't really demonstrate a flavor, lol.

A buddy is gonna come over in a few hours, the one I mentioned that just jumped into vaping with the Vmod and MBV, and he has Thug Juice (he thinks it's AWESOME) and the new Udderly Nuts that I can't wait to try. He just received his Vmod today, so I invited him over to sample all my juices - it's gonna be a fun night! I foresee getting nic sick in my near future, hahaha.

mbv offers VG 70% Distilled Water 30% for people Allergic or Sensitive to PG. It's in the menu options for all their flavors.

thanks. I have tried that and unfortunately I am so sensitive to PG that I cannot even tolerate it in the flavoring. Really bums me out because MBV is such a good vendor.

the shipping is free with an order of $50 or more.

Haha, what a fail by me. I think I spent like $41 and paid $5 for shipping. Could have tried 2 more juices for roughly 5 more dollars. .... Prices are still unbelievable. Really, really, really hope I like their juices. Tried some different Nic levels though for morning, noon and night, and the 70VG/30 water instead of 100% VG so will keep that in mind when I am evaluating the juices.
