Question about eliquid..

[Gormy]

Well, patiently waiting to find out if the premier kits will come in at smokeless image today.. but I figured I may order additional liquids from vaporbomb since it looks like they have quite a selection and the prices look good. Is there a sight that just shows what the differences in vg-pg mix are? some have better flavors? some have more vapor? Heheh at work right now or else I'd be heavily searching lol

Hi Gormadoc, welcome to the forum. PG tends to to be more flavorful with better TH throat hit where VG gives you huge amounts of vapor. Personally I mix my juices at 80/20-70/30 PG/VG mix.

It looks like you on the the right track w/ a volt kit and looking into VB juice. Flavor is subjective, so you may want to try smallest size bottles, but VB is a great vendor. As far as vapor production, the more vg in the ratio the more visible vapor you get. Vg is a bit thicker, but if your not using a tank it might not be an issue. I recommend you try different pg/vg ratios as well and see what you like best.

Different atomizer styles work better or worse with thinner or thicker juices. Tanks like thinner juices in the 70pg/30vg range and may leak with 100%pg, cartos like thinner juices from 100%pg to 70/30 and some people get by with 50/50. Standard attys can get by with most any juice but feed the juice better if it's on the thinner side. VG feeds slowly in most cartridge types but you can get around most of that by standing the ecig on the battery between vapes and letting the cart reload through gravity.

Experimentation with different juices will give you a feel for what works well with different hardware. I'd second the suggestion that you order some sample kits to see what your preferences fall under. We all have different notions about taste and your preferences will most certainly be slightly different than the next person.

I would also check out Bombay vaping. they offer the options of VG\PG mix plus you can choose the level of flavoring on all of their juices.

Decisions decisions.. don't know what flavors to get!!

I've tried VaporBomb. In my experience their juices need a really long time to steep.

I've only found one juice that keeps me happy all the time and it's the 100% VG Red Oak Tennesse Cured smoke Juice from Johnson Creek. I can't get enough that stuff.

This is good to know. I have a tank on the way.... I may need to get some VG. Isn't VG the same stuff sold as glycerin USP at the drug stores?

Unless you know exactly what flavors you like I'd strongly suggest you order sampler packs. Out of every 10 juices there may be 5 you don't like.
P.S. I am so sorry to hear about your Dad and I'm sure he's very proud of you and your decision to kick the stinkies to the curb.
Sincerely, Vapoor.

I'll thinkkk about it.. usually with samplers for anything I find I like 1 of the flavors and nothing else.. lol but it may be different in this instance hehe.

Steep? Ugh something else for me to look up lol. Hmm.. what is steeping.. I do steep me some mean citron green tea.. but suspect it's a little different hehe.

Steeping's exactly what it is with tea, just on a longer timeframe. Put the bottle in a cool, dark place for a couple of days to a week. It gives time for the flavors to mingle.

Buying juices is a pain and an adventure all at once, when you don't yet know your tastes. My advice is get 5ml bottles and sampler packs galore, because no matter how tasty something sounds Murphy's Law dictates that if you get a big bottle of it without tasting it, it won't work for you.

I am new to this all too and made that mistake. Ordered a 30ml bottle of a liquid i can not stand. That was the last time i did that. I just ordered my second sample pack. Much better way to discover what you like.
