Question about MBV flavor shots

[Sara0316]

I've always gotten the 15 ml bottles with 5 flavor shots. This time I got smart and saved money by buying the 30 ml with 5 flavor shots. My question is do they do the shots by percentage? Such as, is there the same amount of extra flavoring in a 15 ml bottle as there is in a 30 ml bottle? Or do they take into account the higher volume and double the size of shots?
Usually with most of my 15's they were ready to vapeon out of the box. These 30's have the perfumey flavor and need to steep.

Yes, I believe they go by percentage. The extra flavor shots are 25 cents for 15ml and 50 cents for 30ml.

Man that's a lot of flavor shots! Are you using dirty gym socks as a wick or what?! LOL!

MBV mixes their juices fresh too, so they should need to steep a little. I've actually been curious about the flavor shots anyways, like how big a difference just one would make, if it throws off nicotine or pg/vg at all, and all that

As gandymarsh said, they are a percentage. So a flavor shot in a 15ml will not be the same volume as in a 30 or a 50ml (or even a 236ml)

I've found some of MBV juices have a perfumy taste at higher percentages of flavoring. I usually get mine with only 1 flavor shot.

If you like them with 5 then that is totally fine of course. But if you do notice a perfumy taste with any juice, you can just leave the lid of the bottle off for a day or two and it will allow most of the alcohol to evaporate away. This should reduce the perfume.

I've also found MBV have to steep. The only exception is probably Hawk Sauce. You can vape it straight out of the mail, but it does get better after a few weeks in a dark drawer.

On a side note try using lower flavor shots as over flavoring can lead to a not so great vape. I usually do 2 shots on a juice I haven't tried before. Then adjust from there.

 

[Sara0316]

Thank you! I'll try fewer shots next time

When I purchase from MBV, I usually get 3 flavor shots.

 

[xdragonx917]

I get just 1

I guess I am the least adventuresome person in the bunch! I started out with MBV with no flavor shots, and have liked the juices I've received just as they come. I've never tried any with flavor shots.

 

[Ritual]

I order with 3 flavor shots by default and adjust from there.

So far I find vaping flavor's very "muted" compared to the real thing so in my mind you can't really go wrong with stronger flavors as long as it still tastes like what it is supposed to.

I get 1 on menthols and 2-3 on deserts.

 

[TheOdessa]

With MBV, I get 2 flavor shots on 50PG/50VG mix, 3 flavor shots in 20PG/80VG mix, and 4 flavor shots on MAXVG. So far this has worked well with Hawk Sauce and Ecto Cooler. I have Thug Juice, Blue Moo, Demon Juice, and Max Soda steeping.

The only MAXVG I have is Hawk Sauce. I usually vape Hawk Sauce right out of the mail as it's always good. Ecto Cooler is another out of the mail juice. The rest need to steep - big time.

Do u like MBV? Ive tried several trying to save $$ but they've all been pretty nasty and "cheap" tasting

Honestly you really shouldn't need a flavor shot to improve a juice..... It's either good or not, why would the end user need to add flavor.

I guess to new vapors it is a novelty and seems logical, it's not. They fill a niche, but MBV is like the Mcdonald's of juice vendors. And yes I do sometimes eat at Mcdonald's, but when I do I don't feel like I'm eating well lol. Ok maybe this came off as a bit mean.
