Question about PG/VG ratios....

[Cearamm]

Hey guys, good morning. Hope you all had good holiday weekend and took advantage of some ecig sales.

Anyways im asking y'all about juice.
My question is why do people or why do you prefer high PG juice. I have tried 100% PG before and dang! Stuff is harsh. I dont personally like a huge throat hit like with smoking because it associates too much with smoking tobacco to me. Im trying to avoid that association. The perfect vape for me is a looooong smooth hit with just enough TH to feel something there but no more. Ive found 50/50 to be just barely doable but i really prefer a 30/70VG ratio best. 20/80 or even 10/90is good too. Even with this i still get amazing flavor and vapor. I have a sensitivity to PG and it just dries me totally out.

So whats deal? What ratio do you guys prefer and why? I just want to understand a little more about this topic.

PG = flavor carrier / TH. VG = more vapor and a liitle bit of sweetness

So far my favorite blend is from Velvet Cloud Vapor. 100% VG, which they add some distilled water to improve wicking. I've tried adding some PG mixes to the VCV juice (to improve wicking), and the slightest hint of the PG tastes awful to me and irritates my throat.

It's not about what others like.

If you prefer 30/70, 20/80 or 10/90 then they are Best for You! The different variations available is what makes Vaping customizable to nearly anyone's satisfaction.

Yes, it is All About You!

Relax, Enjoy!

Yes, PG is a harsh mistress, but some like it that way

Masochist(eagerly panting) : " Hurt me, make me suffer"

Sadist ( smiling devilishy ) : "No No"

(Still tryin to figure that one out )

I have done blends 100% vg with good results however seem to keep going back to High PG blends. Too many years on analogs I guess.

I like about an even mix. 60/40, 50/50, or 40/60. Depending on how much TH I want and what the flavor is.

I'm not a fan of PG at all - throat hit is of no interest to me, and I feel like I get plenty of flavor with 80% VG.

 

[WileECoyote]

I am slowly progressing to a VG/PG blend to find that just right TH. I only need a hefty TH in the morning or while driving in traffic, other than that, I enjoy the flovor and the vapor.

I'm also not a fan of high Pg. I prefer a smoother vape (minimal throat hit) with flavor being my most important criteria. I typically use a 50/50 ratio, and even have used 100% Vg with no issues. I've found that vendors that use all-natural all-organic flavorings have the most flavorful flavors.

Dripeez. Virgin Vapor. Vaperite.

I like the TH. I prefer 50/50 myself. It tends to be too thick for some of my clearo's.

It -as others have said here- is a matter of personal taste what percentage you feel is right. I vape on average a 50/50 or 60(VG)/40 mix, but that is because I have a visual fixation that must be satisfied by the large and thick vapor. most juice you buy comes in either 70/30 or 80/20 PG/VG because the industry has set that as a baseline- you can of course always change percentages when you order your juice just like you do the nic content. Experiment- go online and buy some high VG or high PG and see what tickles your insides. Experiment with buying your own VG and PG solution and adding it proportionately to juices you already have and do the math to figure out just what it is you like. It is, after all, all about you.

Nic content plays a part in TH (and ruining flavor) as well does it not? And if so, then in theory as you lower nic content you should be able to raise PG and maintain the same TH level?

Interesting. Im planning on ordering my next juice batch from Ahlusion. They offer 10/90 on most batches. They seem to have all natural goods over there.
Any more recommendations for vendors that use natural/organic ingredients and such? That would be much appreciated. I know Alice in Vapeland is much talked about here

Another question is: do you find 100% VG clogs your attys or tanks? Im strictly using bottom coil tanks at the mo but have been hesitant on pure VG for fear of clogs and wasting good juice. Advice?

Thanks!

 

[Cearamm]

Heard mixed reviews on Virgin Vapors....anyone clue me in on their juice?

I find this myself!

I only vape 100% vg and have for quite some time. I do not have any clogging isues with my gear at all. I use a REO mod and a RM2 atty. I will never vape even a drop of pg ever again. I find it unhealthful to say the very least.

 

[Tinkiegrrl]

I've only ever tried 50/50. I've been happy with the amount of throat hit, vapor and taste, so I don't see a reason to try another ratio.
