Oh I JUST remembered. If you like sweet and creamy coffee vapes, you MUST try KBV Cafe Latte. Remember I said I am completely burnt out on coffee vapes? Cafe Latte is freakin delicious.

Well, I just placed another order and added a 30ml bottle of the Cafe Latte on your reccomendation. I'll ley ta know what I think about it when I get it.

What are your guys thoughts on PG to VG ratio, my first order form KBV I did 60% VG to 40% PG and thought that the VG was destroying the taste and actually had kind of a bad after taste. I ordered warm sugar cookie, gooey better cake, monkey bread, and caffe latte this time around but I picked the 30/70 mixture instead. What is your experience in the VG liquid having a different taste than the PG. Did I make a mistake in not getting the higher VG mix?

I appreciate your input and response!

Most of the time, higher PG means more pronounced flavor, while higher VG means more vapor. However I have never noticed an issue with lesser or different flavor with KBV joose. I personally stick with 60VG/40PG because the higher PG's dry my throat out. When I first started vaping I used 100%PG, so finding that dry mouth wasn't something to deal with was nice.

However everyone is different. Many people prefer the VG, just as many prefer the VG. In fact if you are used to vaping 100%PG, put that in the comments box on your order, and they will mix it as such.

Give the Caramel Cap another chance. That was my first flavor from boB & Missy. At first vape I thought "yuck." I decided to try it again the next day before trading it and I finished the whole bottle very fast.

The most common way to sweeten e-liquid is with liquid sucralose (aka Splenda.) Unfortunately, I've developed an allergy to it over the years so I'm getting mine sucralose-free. KBV uses sucralose in some of their liquids (I don't know which ones) so getting a little extra might be an option in the future. On the other hand, once you get good at it, you might like to control the extra-sweetness level yourself.

Stevia - I'm assuming you bought it in liquid form. Is it in water or PG? I haven't had luck with the water-based versions which taste like pine tar to me when the atomizer starts getting dry. My PG-based one is a little stale but did work better.

Flavoring - I have Cotton Candy flavoring (malitol) and ordered some Brown Sugar flavoring that I'm playing with instead of sucralose. perfumersapprentice.com has both as well as liquid sucralose.

How much to add is a trial-and-error thing. Don't just pour them into your entire order. You can't get it out again if you added too much. Wash out an empty joose bottle and try a mix. Adjust it and try again.

And, if you are looking for sweet, try Gooey Better Cake. Without the sucralose, it is already incredibly rich and sweet. Maybe the real cake is sweeter but, as I've never tasted it, I have no way of knowing.

I prefer the 70/30 PG/VG blend myself. To me, it provides a better TH and flavor and still produces plumes of vapor.

My initial ordering of GBC was 70pg/30vg and was awesome. My second order I decided to try the 60vg/40pg and it is still good but that buttery goodness doesn't come through for me as much. My third order I got two 30mls of gbc in the 70pg/30vg mix and that is what I am sticking to :D

I think the vapor production is just as good with the 70/30 or at least I am content with it. I could care less about throat hit and actually prefer less hit but I can dial the voltages down for that. Flavor is the most important to me and which is probably why I like the 70/30 the most.

Meester Tat, which do you like better, Blackberry Ice Cream or Strawberry? I'm torn :confused:

I ordered both the strawberry and marion berry ice cream. They are both good, but the marion berry is phenominal! To me, it tastes like the Rasberry flavored creme savers hard candy. Absolutely delicious!!

I agree 100%. To me, the 70/30 blend tastes better with no noticable difference in vapor production.
