Question about base liquid mixing

[jetherid]

Hi,

I've been mixing juice for a good 6 months now and i cant seem to figure out how to get that airy feeling in your throat to go away...

I mostly mix at a 60/40 vg/pg blend but with my flavoring combined it turns out to be a 48/52 blend. I don't use any water. How can i get this airy type taste out of my juice mixes and make my smoke cloudy and thick with an excellent taste to it?



Please help!

Jason

You should get the EJuiceMeUp calculator, so you can choose your PG/VG ratio, and hit that.
You tell it what Nic you're using, what total volume you want, what percentage flavors, and it tells you how much of each ingredient to use.
So for more vapor (which is sounds like you want) you could try mixing something that's actually 60%VG, or maybe even higher (it'll be thick...).

Thanks Train2,

What about the airy taste that ive been getting for so long. It almost makes you want to cough. Any idea what may be causing that?

What device are you vaping with? It may not be the juice... It could be a combination of your device, atomizer resistance, drip tip length, etc... The coil may not be fully vaporizing the juice, so you are getting more air than vapor...

When I am mixing more VG than PG, I find the vape to be a bit more full and moist... Higher PG offers a bit more flavor, not as much vapor. A little bit more dry.

Are you using any flavors at all? What types of flavorings are you using?

I've found that some of the alcohol based flavorings can sometimes make my throat feel a bit scratchy...

Dam718,

I am using TFA and Loran oils mostly. The flavorings are all pg based. I use ego c-twist 1100 mah batteries and use a kanger mini protank2. I also have use ce5+ atomizers with the repalcement coils and they taste similar.

Hmm... I know with my ProTank, I like to pull a flavor wick out of the atomizer head to get a little better saturation of the wicks. With a thicker juice, you may find that helps. It's a pretty easy procedure, and I believe it's documented pretty well in PBusardo's review of the ProTank on YouTube.

I'm guessing you have the voltage set to where you like it? Typically higher voltages will give a bit more vapor... You just don't want it burnt tasting... If that happens back off...

I've had good luck with the TFA flavors. Haven't used Loran but several people do...

Have you tried any pre-made juices from reputable manufacturers? Do those juices taste alright?

My best guess for now is that your wicks aren't getting a complete saturation. Only you can be the judge of that through experimenting with flavor wicks in the head

Welcome to ECF, by the way

We actually have a very active DIY Sub Forum, but I think you need 15 posts to be able to post there... Maybe 10?

Not real sure about the post count... But when you get the required amount, it would be a good idea to post this question there. You'll get a lot better exposure in an audience of people who DIY all the time. The New Member Forum doesn't get a lot of DIY traffic

What about the airy taste that ive been getting for so long.

Protanks are known for the "airy" draw.
Some tape up one hole, or break the tip of a toothpick off in it to block out the amount of air they get.
You may find it's as simple as that.
Cover one of the air holes with a finger while you draw, and see if some of the airyness dissapears

It's the same with the ce5+ though.

Where does everyone get their vg/pg from? I've been using essentials depot

Okay cool. Idk what I'm doing wrong then... I mainly mix nicotine free juice, I'm just looking for that amazing flavorful taste that leaves you wanting more
