Ready to give up!

Hi, Welcome to EFC! I have read all the posts and there are some really good suggestions on here. There are so many wonderful people on this forum that are always ready to jump in and help...I just love it here! One site that I've found that is great to get samples from is Delightful Vapor. They have 3ml samples of their juices for $2 (in 18mg strength), and right now they have many of their flavors on sale for only $1 for their samples. Their prices are really great, and every Tuesday they have a sale on where if you buy one 30ml ($10) one 10ml ($4.50), and one 3ml sample ($1-$2) you get another one of each for FREE! Great way to try some flavors to see what will work for you, and IMO the juice is really good.
Like others have said already, please don't give up! You can do this, and we'll all be here to help!

I most definitely agree with sipping water throughout the day. I can not get by without it.
If you want to try a couple sweeter flavors that work well for me, try GotVapes Butterscotch and or Choco Peanut Butter Cup. I too have gone through tons of flavors but I keep coming back to these. And you can get some Caramel withXflavor from Mom and Pops vapor shop and add that to pretty much any flavor to smooth it out. I have not tried vaping unflavored but I have used that to thin down other flavors.
I have been vaping for over a year and still can not get off the 3-5 analogs a day crutch but I am getting really close to jumping off that ledge. Wish you luck with your challenge.

I've only been vaping for a few months, and started out with menthol cartomizers that came with my stuff.(Nothing fancy, 808 battery because I didn't want to spend a ton at first.) Not great, but tolerable, and I went from smoking two packs a day to under a pack a week.

I'd like to suggest that you get some more of those menthol cartomizers. They helped you cut right down on cigs. You could vape those while trying out a few more new juices. That way you have a sort of back up while you try things until you find something you like.

Titan Vapors Carnival Contton Candy. They ship super fast and the prices are awesome.

Cotton candy is heated sugar. Cotton Candy vapor is the flavor of cooking sugar. Even when I get a burned taste, it's good. lol It starts tasting like grahm crackers. Which is also tasty.


Oh, and plus one on the water.

I know exactly how you feel....I am new too, been a bit over a month now. I ordered 11 flavors from a vendor and I find them to be without much flavor at all. Super disappointing. I have taken it into my own hands, did tons of research on DIY and started making my own ejuices. I found I like SWEET flavors with coffee and tobacco notes. I am not great at this but it is helping. If you are not into DIY, and like that menthol(ish) type hit, try the and ICE flavor at vapedudes, you can get one free but order as late at night as you can or early early in the morning as they only allow 10 freebies per day.

I feel your frustration as I too am feeling the same thing...keep at it though. I have completely quit analogs but that doesn't mean I am not peeved at the fact that I can't taste all these flavors I have collected...oh...and another thing, the longer your flavors you already have steep, may make them taste better, just a thought. Wishing you luck on this adventure...KEEP AT IT!

Been there, done that. Finding the right juice or juices is the most daunting task for most. I know it has been for me. My suggestions:

1. Forget what anyone tells you about this juice or that juice. You will only prove that taste is subjective.
2. Do listen to suggestions about vendors to lead you to new places to try.
3. Take advantage of samples...lots and lots of samples.
4. Keep an open mind. Try some that sound good and try some that you would usually not consider. Remember vaping and eating are different.
5. Realize that your taste will change over time...sometimes daily.
6. Yes, drink lots of water.

Here are somethings that happened to me. At first I would only order tobacco flavors. On one order I threw in a juice called Sweet Swish (think cheap cherry cigar). I discovered that I like fruit. So, while still searching for that perfect tobacco which may or may not exist, I at least found somethings I liked. Then I tried some cinnamon called fireball. Not bad, but it was even better when I added a few drops to some mediocre tobacco. So for me, the search still goes on, but thru sampling and experimenting, I'm beginning to narrow it down.

If you want sweet(ish) and a menthol type punch Halo has Kringles Curse(pepermint) its a good one(Ive found) for those times I want a menthol like hit(I cant stand regular menthol vapes tastes funky to me).

=edit=
Plus Halo is running a sale right now for 20% off your order

Wont hurt to try one more juice right? Check out Vape Dudes...they offer free 10ml samples and if you hurry you an get one right now.They only take the first 10 people each day.

For a menthol lover "Ice Ice" from them is incredible.

I am also a menthol girl. for me I like vape dudes "pure menthol" better than the ice, ice. ice ice is more of a wintergreen/spearmint type to my taste buds you should probably try both.

as others have suggested, you could also get some unflavored to use while you search . most people have to search for liquids they like, don't give up! you could try to sell the ones you have that you don't like.

I can't imagine smoking and vaping at the same time because I used vaping to quit smoking. Cold. AltCig has some sweet vapes with alot of flavor. Gooey Butter Cake, Vanilla Love and Churro. Clouds of Vapor and Heathers Heavenly Vapes also have good flavor. Whatever you decide I would suggest that you quit smoking and try just vaping for a couple of weeks, maybe then you'll get a better taste for vapors.

I vaped and smoked in the beginning. some people do better doing that and some do better quitting smoking cold. each person has to find their own way

Taste really is subjective.... I liked a few juices until I'd been off smokes for awhile and then I realized how terrible they were.

Heathers Heavenly Vapes, Top Quality Custom E-Liquids

Cin City slightly sweet with a little spice.

 

[jdrewry]

... Tell me which Specific clearos you are using...

Before you get caught up with all the excellent suggestions for e-liquids, we really need to know about the kit you're using.
What type of battery are you using? Is it variable voltage? And, as asked, what type of Clearo are you using?

Just wanted to expand on my answer somewhat.

Often, especially when you are new to vaping, there are times when every juice tastes horrible to you, even ones you previously liked. It's a common phenomena, but not well understood. Maybe something to do with overloading or coating the taste buds, but no-one really knows. There are a lot of threads here about this very subject.

When this happens to me, the only thing that seems to fix it is to vape unflavored for a while until my taste buds get back to normal. You might also get some menthol crystals to add to the unflavored liquid to see how you like that.

Above all, please do not give up on vaping. Try the unflavored for a while, then go back to trying out the others. I'm sure this is a temporary phase, and you will begin to find some you like.

P.S. After a while of vaping unflavored, you might also try diluting the flavors you have with some unflavored. I usually do that with premade juices as most of them are too strong for me.

Please don't give up. Finding a flavor to enjoy is imo the most difficult thing about vaping. I smoked menthol for 35 years, but in a vape it made me gag. So, I moved on to other flavors that I enjoy in real life......like Chocolate, Peanut Butter Cup, Vanilla, Coffee.......didn't satisfy me alone, but in a mix they were delicious. Vaped 555 for awhile and RY4, but you will find that your tastes will change over time. It's certainly an adventure. After 3+ years I now only vape Nhaler's Cappuccino.....it just works for me for now. Good luck and hang in there.
