Nicotine Level vs. Taste

[Jimi D.]

There are quite a few suppliers of US-produced nicotine. I use Xtreme Vaping (it's in my signature).

Top notch nicotine, that I've heard.

i ordered 5 bottles of the same flavor (hazelnut) from the same vendor (Vixen Vapors) all 60VG/40PG with nicotine levels from 0-24mg. first thing i noticed, the more nicotine the darker the liquid. the 0mg was crystal clear, the 24mg dark amber. I filled 5 different cartos with each liquid, and i really couldn't taste any difference. there was a huge difference in the throat hit. the 0mg was like vaping 100% VG, just straight air. the 24mg was pretty intense. i've tried a variety of liquids in the 30-36mg and found them to harsh for me and i still smoke a few ryo analogs everyday. overall i found i prefer 12-16mg depending on the flavor.

I tried all of these on an apollo vtube at 4.5v on boge sc 3.0 ohm cartos. hope this helps.

I received 25 mg nicotine in both 50/50 PG/VG and 100% VG from Extreme vaping. Both are essentially crystal clear in color. From what I've read the primary causes of discoloration in high grade nicotine base liquids are:

a. exposure to light
b. exposure to oxygen
c. exposure to high temperature

Back when I was using a 24 mg flavored and mostly PG juice I'd notice a significant difference in color range between identical 30 ml bottles. For every three bottles I ordered two would arrive darker than the third. No difference at all when I vaped them.

What some people consider harsh, others don't. I will get mainly 24mg but I will try at least one in 36mg. Maybe use that one for my moments of very high stress levels.. lol.

yzer, your a b and c concept makes sense. hard to argue that one.
