The best build for flavor!

[Nimbus007]

First off all im really excited to try out Grants Vanilla Custard since I've gotten into Vanilla Custard after trying CLS and other various VC eliquids. Im looking for a build that will accomodate GVC so I can taste every drop of that eliquid that everyone raves about. Im pretty dang excited. So far ive tried 24G 5 Wrap Nichrome, 24G 6 & 7 Wrap Nichrome and 22G 5 Wrap Nichrome. So far its been 24G 5 Wrap thats been more flavorful. Do note, I am vaping on a Sigelei 150W @ 75 Watts on a Royal Hunter RDA.

Clapton coils maybe? A lot of people rave about them here, and it makes sense since the liquid can seep through the grooves and be heated from the inside out. I'm boring, though, and make 26g micro coils.

But, what people say about this liquid is that over heating it could kill the pleasure of vaping it. Im always building Sub Ohm and have never built 1.0 and above. How would i go about getting a "cooler" vape?

Lower watts and/or more airflow.

While it's all subjective, I personally get better flavor with dual coils, twisted 28g kanthal at about 0.8 ohms at around 40 watts.

I do the same. dual coil, 26 gauge wrapped around a 1mm drill bit 12 times. Comes out to between 0.3 and 0.4 ohms. Put it on a little cloud of japanese cotton and vape away at 40-45 watts. Decent amount of vapor, and a lot of flavor. I use an Igo-W plus with the air holes drilled out to 3mm.

Do you guys suggest building with 26g on a smaller drill bit? Or 24g on a smaller drill bit. How many wraps as well? Also ive heard *clapton is good for flavor as well.

Steam Engine | free vaping calculators is a godsend for estimating resistances. Experiment and see what you like.

Personally, I prefer 26g dual coils. 2.5mm inner diameter, 5 wraps per coil. My resistance comes out to .34 ohms and I vape that at ~65 watts. Flavor is good but its made for balance between flavor and vapor.

 

[speedy_r6]

Depending on what resistances are safe on your device/battery, I would try both of them. It doesnt take that long to make basic coils. For a while, I was probably making 6-10 coils a day just trying to find out what i liked the most. At the end of the day, 26 gauge around a 1mm drill bit was my favorite.

You are using nichrome, though. I have only used kanthal, so that may have some effect.

 

[Wolfenstark]

I guess dual coils give the most oomph with flavour but thats probably just because your usually getting more vapour.

I sorta like coil IDs from 2 to 3 mm, but that's me. As to wraps, when I go dual coil, I usually shoot for 0.3 (My personal bottom end) to 0.5 ohms on mechs, and I usually run around an ohm with regulated mods. Bigger ID makes it easier to bring up the resistance, and I think that having more wick (and hand in hand with that, more e-liquid) in the coil area helps bring out the flavor.

Micro coils on a smaller drill bit, and a small chamber on an RDA. Either that or dual coils in the same configuration.

Try parallel coil of a thin kanthal

 

[Cacing]

The more surface area on coil the more flavour you'll get

Yeah what everyone seems to say is that the more surface area the better. Even from RiP Tippers videos as well. I guess ill go 26g 8 wraps kanthal. What do you guys think about that? Or even his dual parallal 24g build which was pretty nice!

Sounds good! A little more info on that eliquid? I am a savory/desserty guy. Cant get enough of it.

I think you should experiment and find what you like.

How many wraps is that and what diameter. I have a bunch of 28 and want to try this build.
