Show Me The Steep

[emily n portland]

Maybe someone can help...

I got over 10 different NT juices, and one of it is Radioactive,my favorite.
But only Radioactive gunks my coil in a day. Never have any simular issues with another juices or vendors. After only one day,coil is totally black, lot of gunk on it,and vapor is bad.
And juice in my miniPT2 becomes very dark,almost black.

My 50ml bottle of Radioactive is dark,as I understand it was presteeped well,is it possible it becomes too dense ?

Not very helpful, but for what it's worth...

I usually vape Radio in a protank and I usually get 3-4 tanks before I dry burn and rewick.
I may be a weirdo and just like the gunked up taste though...I think it tastes best just before it becomes too gunked up to physically vape anymore.
But the liquid in the tank is only a little darker than the bottle.

I'm using 6mg, from the batch that's currently up, rebuilt protank at 1.8 Ω, with cotton

Not sure the ratio on that one. I haven't visited my bottle of it in a while. Hopefully Clark or one of the other Radioactive fans will drop by. I'll revisit my bottle and see what happens. It's from the first batch. What is the born on date for your bottle?

Born date : 06.02.2014

It's the NET portion of the tobacco flavoring - it's a known issue with NETs. We filter the flavoring to remove as many of the particulates as is humanly possible, but NETs will always be rougher on coils than liquid made from commercially available flavoring.

Thank you Kent for the answer. Will it help a little if I add a water in it ,because it is too dense now ?

Unfortunately no. It will only water down the flavor and still gunk your heads up. Does better in a Rebuildable Tank if you need a tank. It even gunks up my drippers but I'm somewhat used to it now, I vape several NETs

Water would make it taste bad, and add minerals that may make the problem worse. I have used Radioactive in a Protank and did not get coil gunking for a week. I do rebuild my protank coils with a cotton wick, so maybe that makes a difference.

Normally Radioactive is in a Kayfun. I dry burn my coils after every tank and use ceramic wick so I don't have any problems with coil gunking in the Kayfun.

What mod are you using, and what wattage? It may be that your mod is not providing enough power to heat the coil up very well so you have to hit it harder to get enough vape out of it.

Ok,no water

Radioactive was great when was young. But after some months of steep it becomes very dense ,dark and gunk my coils.

I using miniProtank II , with micro coil and cotton,powered by MVP2. Problem is not in the gear,but in the strange behaviour of Radioactive after long steep.

Ahh, ok. I understand what you mean now. How much of the steeped stuff do you have? Enough to sell and get some young Radioactive?

 

[lavender1742]

I buy old Radio!

LOL this always makes me think you love your NT and use the Steepmaster 9000 to the song by Clarence Carter - Strokin.

Thanks for reminding me I have some deep steep Radio lurking about, Woody =)

I drip mine because it's just plain sittin down at the desk vapin goodness =) Sometimes it goes for a swim with another NT liquid in a tank when I go out, but then just a little bit for added goodness. On its own, I like to savor it specially, in a dripper that I can rewick and dry burn frequently.

You can count me in too! I fell in love the first time I dripped it! Which was through a magma clone, around July 4th....so it was pretty pre-steeped.... I have a kayfun ordered, but from yalls comments, I might stick with drippers-only for this one...or if in a tank, only by mixing...I did notice it gunked up a coil pretty fast and the flavor, for me, that I remember, wasn't as good as a fresh wick and dry-burn.... I will definitely be revisiting this one very soon... so glad I had a chance to re-order a 50ml...

I love Radio. In a tank, I add a few drops of Doodle or maybe half as many drops of Wakonda but I also prefer it in a dripper. It just has this earthy feel to it that goes perfect with relaxing time.

Oh....now....thats.....STEEP!!

Just a small picture of the NT family hanging around waiting to go into the luggage...Roundhouse didn't make it into the pic, it's already packed for next week's trip. As you can see, my NT habit is growing...please god Superman, bring on the 120mls or I'm gonna be eating hopes and dreams so I can buy the big guns all the time =)

Kind of sketchy backlighting for the steep show, but that's all ya get before the long term steeps go back to bed.

Your Katy's Virus lid is askew. I would get that on snug to keep from over muting it. That is my favorite and I care for mine lovingly
