Blue moo is great btw if anyone was wondering. I haven't been smoking that long but I've found it rare that a flavor tastes EXACTLY how you expect it to. It's a damn Blueberry Cinnamon crumb cake. Dead on. Smooth hit.

Does anyone find MBV liquids to be a little thin? I feel like this 50/50 mix is a lot thinner than some of the other's I've gotten. Not that it matters. It could be my imagination but I feel like the thinner liquids burn quicker. I'm probably crazy.

Either way, This is my first experience with MBV, I decided to try them since everyone on the forums seems to love them. I was skeptical at first because of the prices but I have to say that the two liquids I'd tried so far have been pretty good. I tried Afternoon delight too and it is pretty good. I tend to like coconut flavors (from the two I've had at least) and I think the flavor in this one is a little weak, I didn't let it steep yet though. Blue Moo was fantastic the day I got it, I can only imagine how it'll be in a week or so.

All in all, great experience. FAST SHIPPING and a price that can't be beat. I'm telling all my friends.

Hello EB. I'm a fan of MBV too. Most of us on the forum prefer the terms related to vape, vaping, vapor instead of "smoke," "burn," etc. It is more technically correct, and it is a widely accepted practice on the forum.

I am a 50/50 vaper, and I don't think their mixes are too thin...but that is only my own personal opinion. If a juice is too thick, it can often lead to wicking problems and dry hits (which is a much bigger problem, IMO).

I hope you continue to enjoy exploring MBV. I think they offer tons of great flavors with unsurpassed customer service. :thumb:

commence threadjack...

@LoriP - how did you get two banners to stick in your siggy spot????? I tried and got some error message about too many characters...

/end threadjack
Sorry, I just saw this. You must have posted as I was reading the thread above it, cuz I was reading (very early) this am before work...

Stoneface could be right, I'd have to go check, but I was thinking it was ok for 2 if one is a stop smoking banner. I'll go check.:oops:
I know that supporting members have some perks, larger avatar, more pic storage. I just decided before I spent another penny on stuff, I wanted to give back here since I've learned sooooooooooo much.:)

Also, can someone start a chitty chat thread at the MBV group. I'm new, and I'm ascared.:cry:

Edit:Can't find it, but I know (99% sure) that was why you can have 2)

AND....I'm vaping my new STICKY BUN....it is AWESOME GOODNESS too!!! VG Max, +2 extra shots.
Steeped just shy 1 week, was prob good from the get go......:2c:

I find the opposite to be true, lol. I always get my juice max VG, and more recently, the Gingerale I picked up had almost no vapor at all, and no taste or smell. Switched over to the Solar Flare, nice big clouds and intense flavor.

I have had the same results you mention with every juice, except the ones from MBV.

For me and my experience;
Great MBV vape = mini plumes of vapor, but oh-so-good and enjoyable vape
Good to less than good MBV vape = mega Plumes (not a bad thing :blink:)

I'm thinking about mixing my MBV Tangerine with the MBV Texas sweet tea. I like the TST, but that one will get way to sweet for me after about a half of a tank.

Update to the Texas Tea and Tangerine mixing
<Insert Drum Roll>

On a tank I just loaded, I went three parts Texas Tea (and no it's not oil :lol:) with one part Tangerine. This tea mixture is great. With this ratio I get some hits that are pure sweet tea, and others have the light touch of tangerine citrus added to the mix. It feels (tastes) like a new liquid. I not to sweet and not to tart (although neither were ever to tart to begin with). I could possibly even even out the ratio a little more, but I didn't want to loose the tea portion from having the citrus overwhelm it.

In fact I'm thinking the Texas Sweet Tea is begging to be mixed with various other flavors as well. Before today I was going to order a bottle of 30ml to keep around for a sweet vape every once in a while, but now I may get a big bottle just for mixing :headbang:

Ok, this is the last time I bring this up, but here is a start to finish on my experience with Ginger Ale. Maybe someone here can tell me what I did wrong, if anything.

I ordered some Ginger Ale, Max VG, 0 Nic. I let it steep for 8 days or so. First 24 hours with the cap off, and about 4 days in I nuked it for 10 seconds and gave it a really good shake. It was 100% clear. So I put it in my (metal) mini viva nova tank, with a 1.8 oHm atomizer. Filled the tank up. Started vaping. Look down, surprised vapor comes out of my mouth. It's completely tasteless and scentless, at least to me. Now, granted, I understand that Max VG can "mute" the flavor a little bit, but I have other flavors from Mt Baker Vapor, all of them Max VG, and they ALL have scent and flavor so far. I mean, this is like air. I fiddle with it for a bit, not change. So I figure, what the hell, I'll keep vaping it anyway. About half way through the tank, I notice that the juice is discolored. Now, this was clear before, and now it is dark brown sludge. So...I dump it, wash out the tank, throw the atomizer in some Vodka. Put a new atomizer on (2.8 oHm) and take care to vape at a low voltage, in case I burned it before. Still no scent, no flavor. I vape about half a tank, then check it. Dark brown sludge again. At this point, I give up. I throw the atomizer into the vodka, rinse it out, vape some Solar Flare for a while instead (with no issues). So, a day goes by, and I decide it is time to clean my atomizers. Take them all out of the Vodka, run them through some hot water, boil them for 5 mins. Take them out of the water, dry them off, and start checking to see if there is any I need to dry burn.

The two atomizers that I used for only a 1/2 of tank a Ginger Ale a piece on? The silicone cap and wicks are stained yellow-brown. AFTER the 24 hour Vodak soak and boil. This...is slightly disturbing. The coils are caked with crud. One of them won't even fire, and the other one even after a dry burn still looks absolutely disgusting. I am baffled how a clear liquid can turn to brown sludge in 1/2 of mini nova tank, staining wicks and silicone and breaking a atomizer, while not giving off any flavor or scent.

So...has anyone else used Ginger Ale? Did this happen with you? Or any other flavor? I'm not really sure what to do here. I'm out two atomizers (kind of scared to use the one still firing) and while they are not that expensive, I really do expect them to last more than 1/2 a tank (they were both brand new). I still have quite a bit of it left...though I certainly won't be using it. I figured before I headed over to the site to leave a review, I would post here and see if I'm missing something.

I have had relatively clear juices caramelize (turn brown with heat), and from what I've read it is the sugars darkening due to the device heating the juice. The juices that darkened did not thicken into a sludge. I have had other juices gunk up the coils, but that is always clearly evident before cleaning. I have not had both caramelization and gunking happen with the same juice, and not in the way you describe.
The closest I have come to your experience is Salted Caramel, which caramelized slightly but seriously gunked the coils. My response may or may not be helpful, but there it is...:|

I would contact them before I left a bad review. Maybe they know what's going on. May be a bad batch?
