Bit of a strawberry problem.

[beeper]

I have made up the strawberry fields yoghurt at 20% as recommended on the bottle Thing is, it's making me cough just a bit, nothing serious but it's there all the same. Also happening with 'Yogi' which is a similar strawberry yogurt type concentrate.

So, i'm wondering whether there's anything I can add into the mix that will somehow smooth it out? Any magic additive available?

I think that the 20% tasted about right for me, ie. any lower and i'd not really get much flavour out of it.

Have they had much of a steep or even a short time ' breathing ' beeper . . . . sometimes harshness can be smoothed out just by leaving the cap/dropper top off.

There's Vape Wizard which can also smooth a flavour out ( also called by other names, depending on Vendor ) needs using with a light touch, otherwise it can mute and dull flavours though.

TFA Smooth is essentially the same thing, just a little more reasonable:

It might be worth trying a higher VG mix beeper.

Yeah go for the vg I suffered terribly with mouth sores scratchy throat etc etc...I stripped it all back bit by bit
..too much vg clogged my chest up but too much pg had me all scratchy...finally got there with 80vg 20pg is the max I'm happy with. Although I mix my vg with distilled water first so that may smooth things out also.

Thank you so much for your suggestions!

It's a bit odd really because all other juices i have mixed up have the same VG/PG ratio and I have had no problems at all. This leads me to believe that it's just this particular flavour.. ?

So, because they've not mellowed out through steeping, I will certainly try one of those additives that Perpy has mentioned.

i think that will be just the ticket!

That's not unheard of either Beepsie . . . . Tsoko for example has a sensitivity to all the Flavourarts flavours he's tried, so there could be something in the SF yoghurt that doesn't suit you either.

I'd also try leaving the bottle cap off for 24hours, just to see if that helps relieve the harshness.

Will do!
