Received my NT order (Frenilla & Strawnilla) Fri. and have been vaping the Frenilla,
but the flavor seems weak. Any recommendations for a wattage setting on a new Nautilus?

It may just need to steep some. 12 hours cap off then close and give it a shake, open lid and close then give it a shake ever other day for a week then see how it sits for you. Personally I don't vape Frenilla until it's coffee colored and with the new glass bottles I don't know how it's going to steep. Personally once it steeps I use mine with a 1.4 ohm coil on an istick with 7.5 watts and it's yummy!

Good luck!

It seems to help to prime the wick and then let the Nauti sit overnight with the liquid, also. My 2c!~

Thanks for the responses.
I'd be surprised if it's a steeping problem, since the "born on date" is over 4 months ago (12/8/14).
The coil on my new Nautilus is a BVC, but don't know whether it's the small hole, or the newer large hole type with cotton.
I learned the hard way about allowing the wick to saturate on my older Nautilus Mini. Nasty dry hit and burned the wick,
so now I usually wait at least an hour after filling.

True but since NT has switched to glass bottles the juice seems to be in a bit of suspended animation until it is opened... ;)

We store the liquid at 62 degrees, in airtight bottles, in amber glass bottles - the liquid is "fresher" than you might think ;)

Have you tried it on any other devices - curious?

Wait are you sure you are using a nautilus not an Atlantis

IMHO, the Nautilus doesn't seem to play well with NT juices (they seem to do well with thinner liquids). I switched to the Delta 23 a while back, and got much better flavor from that tank. I started on rebuildables last week, and for me, the flavor's gotten even better.
I have found NT juices taste even better dripped or SubOhm vaped. I misplaced my Subtank, and had no choice but to vape with my Aerotank, and was in misery waiting for my new Subtank to arrive. It arrived yesterday, along with my NT order which contained the newest version of PBC. The PBC is just so good! I liked PBC Reloaded, but this version is just pure heaven. Of course I never tried PBC Reloaded in a Subtank...
IMO, it's really worth investing in a SubOhm tank to pick up all the nuances of flavor in NT eliquid.

I don't vape clearomziers anymore but the rule on flavor is 1-2 full tanks through before you get the flavor right. The rule applies to rbas as well. I almost cry when it is time to change a wick. 1-2 tanks bland then the flavor gets better and better until the sad day it tastses burnt

I do use a subtank nano in a pocket setup but It is underused.
