Hi, another noob question Some vendors are offering choices of ingredient mixes. I understand the nicotine bit, I understand what PG and VG are, but not the implications of the mix ratio. Choices being PG 100%, PG/VG 70/30 and I think 50/50. Are there changes to taste, amount of vapour, hit on throat, ease of vaporising etc etc? Cheers Paul

PG gives more throat hit but less vapour, VG the other way round and a bit sweeter tasting. 70/30, 60/40, 50/50 are all attempts at getting the best of both worlds. I favour 70/30 but as in most things vaping, personal taste does come into it

I started on a 70/30 mix because I was buying my juices made up and that is what most of the e-juices came in from the firms I was buying them from.
But then I got a mix that was 50/50 and that suited me better. Smoother and slightlt sweeter taste. So now that I am mixing my own, I do them all 50/50.
I don't think this is something that anyone can advise you on. It is something you have to try for yourself.
Get a couple of 5, 7 or 10ml samples of the same e-juice and see for yourself which one you prefer.

Almost all of the juices I tried at first were 70/30. The first juice I really liked was 50/50. From now on that's what I'm going for.

I make my own juice now and I settled on 80/20 PG/VG. It works for me. I have tried 70/30 but it was a bit too sweet for me. But, it may work better with flavours that are not that sweet. Just have to find what you like with what flavour you have. MM
