Major coil gunker!

[beedee]

Hi all. Just a cautionary tale re UK Flavours Coffee. I was a bit suspicious as it's a very dark brown liquid, nontheless used it in a mix at about 18% with 4% PA cream.

It gunked up a coil to the point of being unusable within about 1ml. Wish I'd taken a photo, the coil and wicks were pretty ugly when I opened it up. 

Also partially gunked up another coil but not so badly as it was a in a dripper.

Shame, tasted very nice until the burnt hits...

I *think* Jane @johanino is a huge fan of this concentrate beedee . . . . although she uses a very low percentage around 2% I think.

Which would probably be nowhere near strong enough for us lesser mortals to taste.

But it works for her.

May as well switch to Real Baccy steeps then........1ml's about par for the course!!!!!!

Sounds about right Perpetua , 2% would probably be a safe bet for coils, but not my taste buds!

Yeah OP is right. Fab flavour. shame it's a gunker. Use when near new wicks very easily and use with caution

even at 2% it's a gunker - major so. I normally change wicks once a day max (if not less). - this one you're looking at min x2 a day!!! Great for vapers tongue though

Given that I do around 6 ml a day - and this one lasted only 1 ml - it could be 5 wick changes in a day - since I'm new to all this wicking business and more often getting it wrong than right I'd have to give up the day job!

Does taste nice though....                    it's an option         ......nah, I need the day job to feed the shinyitus....

If you want my bottle of the stuff  @johanino  you can have it!

lightweight only vaping 6ml - mine is over 10ml LOL and at 2% only needs 2 wick changes a day (or to embrace manky wick syndrome).

Thanks for the offer beedee but nah ....however if it had been UK Flavours blackberry/blackcurrant you could send it in a helicopter LOL
