Hi ECF Members,
I just wanted to say "hello" and introduce myself in my first post. I live in the Midwest (USA), I'm over 50 years old and have been vaping for about 6 years starting with the Blu, which was a good beginner kit but was quickly outgrown by my desire to tinker. Today I twist & build my own fused & twisted Clapton coils on my Kylin RTA v2. I like clouds but flavor is more important - I don't want to run high wattage or vape more juice than than I drink water so I try to strike a balance by mostly vaping at about 35-45W with 0.2-0.5 Ohm single Clapton coils. I try to keep the ratio of coil mass to surface area low to maximize flavor while keeping ramp up/down time and battery wattage low. This weekend I tried PG extractions of coffee (ground whole bean Italian Roast Starbucks) and organic whole vanilla bean - zero nic. I need to let them steep but good flavors so far - just not strong enough yet so hopefully time, and feedback from the community, will help. My vaping journey has been fantastic and I have learned much from reading tons of content, including posts here, and wanted to join a site that had some depth and breadth of content to continue to enhance my knowledge so I decided on ECF.
Glad to be here and looking forward to tapping into the wisdom of many ECF members!
