I have a juice that I bought when I first started which is a peanut and chocolate one, I don't like it, it tastes burnt, only this one does, It's very thick and taints the wicks so everything tastes like it and I have to use a new head to get rid of the taste, Any ideas what I could put with it to mix the flavour and dilute it down so I don't waste it. I have 2 30ml bottles I don't really want to pass it on as I think it's not fair on whoever I give it to Thank you BC

I am sure you have tried this, but lowering the voltage/wattage may help?
Also if the juice is high in sugar content, which it sounds like it is, the wicks will get caramalised very quickly leading to a burnt taste. It's not called "christmas something or other" is it? Because I sampled the juice and it tasted burnt at all voltages..

I guess the best thing to make it thinner is probably vodka. But if it tastes burnt from the first vape I'd bin it.

I just put menthol in anything that tastes crap, get a pg based menthol or in fact any pg heavy flavour you fancy, that should thin it out. An 80/20 pg/vg or 100% pg. Chris.

Thanks chris, I will check my menthol and stick some in, I was disappointed when I bought it but thought I would leave it to steep, 8 months of steeping hasn't made it any better

if its a wicking issue then maybe its better to use the juice as a dripping juice
other than that you could thin it down with vodka or distilled water

Have you tried it in a different atty/clearo, to see if that helps bc?........If you have, then I'd go with diluting it.............Be careful with the vodka though.....Remember, it's not 'one shot for the liquid & a sneaky swig for you' each time......he...hee..........

Thank you giles, but 60ml I think you'll add vodka and still won't like it. So you dissolve some menthol crystals in some more vodka and add that. And chances are you still won't like it. Cut your losses and drink the vodka instead.

Yup I think the consensus may be chuck the juice, drink the vodka Thank you all for your ideas the vodka ones are the best I will take the juice to our next meet up and find out if I'm just being picky, anyone that likes it there can have it , Chris, you must try it and tell me if I'm picky
