Add a tiny bit of VG. Make sure it's USP grade though. Go easy on it because you don't want to add to much and not have enough nic or flavor afterwards.

thank you I always forget which is which on pg/vg... i usually aim for 50/50 but I've been playing with mixing premade flavors so the % is off

 

[Shadav]

3 drops of vg and so much better no more choking...thank you

I wonder how I got a red thumbs down above my previous post. Lol.

LMAOOOOO @ vg or pg or I have some bacardi in the fridge

 

[Shadav]

hey i've heard people using alcohol figured i'd mention the bacardi

Yeah PG causes a 'throat hit', although in my experiences, getting above 50% PG makes more of a scratchy, irritating throat hit as opposed to the satisfying 'thump' of a nicotine throat hit. Try 60% VG in your next mix and make sure your nicotine math is correct so you're not over-doing it.

Several factors effect throat hit

1. To much PG (I find a 50/50 mix good)

2. To much NIC. When I was a smoker 24mg was good but as I quit I noticed the throat hit increased. Reducing the NIC from 24mg to 18 worked. Now I'm between 18mg and 12mg.

3. Flavoring, Some flavors (Expecially some tobaccos) are harsh. I'd reduced the percentage or added a smoother like vape wizard.

So these are some of the things you can try. But you need to determine exactly what it is that's causing this. So do this.


test the VG, PG and the mixed base.

Vape just the PG alone and see if it's the PG

Next Vape just the VG alone and see if that's causing it (But it's the least likely).

Next vape just the mixed base PG/VG/NIC in your usual mixed concentration and see if that's it. If that is it then you need to adjust your PG to VG ratio and if that doesn't work your NIC concentration is either to high or it's bad NIC solution.

If all is well after that then it's the flavoring. The flavoring could have spoiled or it could be your using to much.
