I have a 50/50 blend. I find that sometimes i do not enjoy that much of a throat hit. but, i am worried about losing flavor by decreasing the amount of PG in the blend. I wanted to pick up one particular flavor in 20/80, 50/50, and 80/20 to see the differance between PG/VG first hand. If you only purchase the 5 ml bottles itll run you ~15 dollars to know which you like for sure.

Granted, you will be almost throwing away about 8 dollars but in my state that is one pack of analogs. Id say it is worth the cost of the experiment to insure that you are having a pleasurable experience.

I plan on doing this before my next major purchase of fluids. Hehehe, this way i dont blow a more significant amount of money on fluids while conducting my little experiment at the same time if it turns out that i prefer something other than a 50/50 blend.

I have some 50/50 mixes and I'm trying out some 40/60 juices. The latter still gives me clouds of vapor without killing the weaker flavors IMO. I don't think I'll go any lower than that for VG because I've never been real big on TH. VG adds sweetness to juice, so I might try going 60/40 on the flavors with chocolate or other candy-like juices.

Here's the easy way,and cheap...Buy some VG at CVS,Wallgreens, and mix it 50/50 with your juice.Than adjust according to taste.

wouldnt that just dilute the flavors in the mixture? Combine that with what i read about how VG, by itself, reduces the flavor.. i do not know how keen i am on that particular experiment.

it works-- from a vapor production standpoint, not flavor.
Personally I go with a 35/65 PG/VG base-- once the flavoring goes in, it comes a little closer to a 50/50 being as most flavorings are PG based. JMO.
