PG/VG ratio

[poodie]

Hello.

Can someone explain what the difference is in the ratios of pg to vg? what makes one better then the other?

Thanks

PG enhances throat hit and flavor. VG enhances the amount of vapor generated. The most common combinations of PG to VG are 80/20, 70/30 and 50/50. VG is extremely thick. The more PG in the juice the stronger the taste and TH. I make my own juice and depending on whether I'm looking for really strong tasting fruit or really mellow vanilla-like taste I go with 80/20 or 60/40.

A lot of people have explained it better than I can, but here's what I make of it..

PG - It's thinner, supposedly carries the flavor well, but doesn't produce as much visible vapor as VG
VG - Thicker, more of a "body" to the vaopor, and produces a whole lot of vapor when you exhale.

I think 50/50 is too thick for cartomizers.. takes too long to fill a cartomizer. I've heard it's nice in a tank.

I stick to 60/40 or 70/30 PG/VG now. 80/20 is too thin for me.

I use 30 PG and 70VG...too much PG gives me a headache! I know my mixture is thick but I use it with 325 SS mesh in my RBA and it vapes perfect. Just recently I have been meeting others who have this problem with PG or worse symptoms.
