Stevia gunked my coils

[LimJaheyyy]

yeah so I got multiple flavors from capella and they we all pretty good until I tried kiwi strawberry and wild cherry, which both have stevia. I have a tfv8 with t8-v8 coils. So I made a bottle of kiwi strawberry at about 10 percent flavoring and I got this mist not really a spit cause you can't feel it. But it tastes like I'm eating sweet n low packets. So I ditched the coil cause it was 3 weeks old and made a wild cherry. The same thing happened and boy is it gross. I dumped the bottle and made one of my trusty all day vapes and now it continues to spit. So buyer beware stevia ain't the best thing to suck on.

I try to stay away from e-liquids with sweeteners added and do not use any sweeteners in my DIY mixes. But thanks for the information you provided on your experience.

Capella lists those as drink flavors, not as general purpose. I don't know if it's all stevia or something else. I didn't even think the stuff was very good as a drink.

Interesting because if memory serves me right I have seen many posts and comments of some DIY gurus using these additives. I don't and probably never will as I have had poor experiences with sweeteners in store bought e-Liquids.

I order them from the vape mall so there was no specification there. Either way oh well it was a lesson learned

Yeah it's not really needed anyways I still order the vape malls flavorings I just stick away from anything with "sweet" in the name

If sweeteners gunk up coils so fast it does make one have reservations about inhaling them when I think about it. But the main reason I stay away from sweeteners was how it clogged the wick in a coil in less than 30MLs. It was one tasty e-Liquid to be honest and that is disappointing that it toasted coils. I did enjoy it but now I just to create my own as close as I possibly can.
