Has anyone just recently received a bottle of analog from GeJ today or in the last few days??

I think I got a bad batch or bad bottle....

Has no flavor scent, no flavor, zero vapor, and smells and taste like alcohol....

I'm sure they will take care of it but I'm just wondering if I'm the only one

I am working on finishing my bottle from 2 months ago. I have a fresh one from last month, which I haven't tasted yet, but it does smell like Analog from the new bottles. I smelled both the Analog and GJ4 which I received last month, since some had reported GJ4 oddities (tasting like Vita Bella). Mistakes do happen, so I would contact GeJ because one thing Analog never has lacked is flavor and aroma and vapor. I have never noticed any alcohol from GeJ before, and I don't believe they use it to mix, so that is definitely worrisome.

I had a bad Kayfun experience last week when I rinsed out 2 of them, rebuilt one and then refilled. Lost about 8ml of new HHV juice in the outing. Made me sad. I didn't tighten the tubes enough and both turned into straws. I nearly threw them out, but recalled that I've had learning curves with all of my atomizers, and turned my depression and anger into a learning tool.

Still disappointing, frustrating and messy.

Just loaded up some Analog in the Rocket, which I rebuilt from a 1.8 ohm coil down to a nice 1.4ohm coil. The 1.8 ohm coil seemed to take too long to heat up in the sub zero weather, and that mouthpiece is cold when outside :)

Funny you mention this, but I finally got my taifun GT back after my buddy loaned it from me for a month. If you ask me. First thing I loaded in was gej's patriot and I'm in heaven.

For me, kfl and Russians are absolutely awesome, but a taifun GT is so much better. It has the same chimney structure that really condenses the flavor and vapor. BUT the best part? You can actually turn it upside down, unscrew the deck with the coil, fix whatever you gotta fix and pop it back in. Too bad it costs as much as a provari heh heh.

And oh. Patriot. Oh patriot.... Whoever introduced that to me, I love you

I just broke out my Analog, and it's pretty damn good. It's only about a month old at this point, but has picked up tremendously as far as flavor. Sorry to hear you got a bad batch, bustabo....maybe shelf it for a minute, but I don't remember there being any alcohol smell or taste when it was fresh. If anything it smelled and tasted very very light, but a little nutty maybe. Now it's kinda sweet but complex and I need to spend some more time with it :)
Seems like a good euro cig but nothing like I've ever had before.

Hey y'all, long time no see :toast:

Still vaping, just hardly on ECF anymore. Haven't been searching for new juices or equipment anymore, since I'm pretty happy with my current kit. Just passed my 2-year smoke-free anniversary (WOOT), and treated myself to a new MVP in the garish floral pattern even though I really didn't need it, and my Provari is still flawlessly working after nearly two years. I'm still happy with my two VMods and my Reo, although I did have to send in the Reo for repairs (I am reliably told that I am the only person to have ever broken a Reo :lol:). My AGI tank is still chugging along well, and I got another RSST to replace the one that fell to pieces (some of you old-timers may remember the amusing time when that happened). My daily porta-vapes are still the good old reliable Smoktech Winders with IClear 16s, which I've discovered to be the best-performing clearos so far.

As to juices, I've culled things down to a select few. HHV Huntsman and Pirate's Booty, GEJ Patriot and Vita Bella, TPR Candied Cavendish (almost out, need more), W2V RYgar and RYgar Mild, El Toro Puros and Brasileiro, and my own Erinmore Mixture homebrew. Also a bunch of non-tobaccos and arti-baccos from various joints. The constantly seeking new-stuff urge has calmed down some, and I'm happy with my stash.

Nice to see lotsa familiar faces around here still carrying the NET flag. Hope you're all doing well!

I have a 10-month-old bottle that's just a tad less bright and bold as the new version. I think the trick might be to seal them tight when not dripping -- with the regular cap, not the dropper cap. The seals on those droppers isn't worth much.

Good point. It's as if the bottle stays open. Wow. Never even thought about that. Really good point, YCY.

Good to see you too, Scarf. I'll be contacting you soon about that other thing.

Got an email from GEJ and I guess I got a super fresh batch that was finished the day it shipped. I was told to uncap it for a few days.

That's cool that they basically confirmed that you were tasting something "different," though it should become normal.

Yeah, me neither, I keep my glass with the dripper caps but probably a good idea to put the regular cap on for longer storage. I know the seals are good enough to not leak with the drippers but I didn't think air may be getting free access.

Kuba Kuba from W2V. I like it, can also see why others wouldn't. Similar to Cold-Infusion and The Blond. Of the three ACID flavor-infused cigars that these juices are made from, Kuba Kuba I liked the least, and my guess if I vaped KK alongside those other two vapes it would also be my least favorite.

These descriptions are based on Kuba of an unknown age, but I'm guessing it's fairly old. The infused flavors in the cigar aren't as potent as I expected from others descriptions, which may result from age.. The non-tobacco flavors involved are still strong and odd like CI and Blond which would turn off many but I enjoy them. Hard to describe, but it's like incense.. herbal, spicy, flowery, etc. If I was to start home-brewing, an ACID cigar would be a flavor I kept on hand, but Blondie or Cold-Infusion over Kuba.
