Hello all, I stumbled across this thread whilst searching for information on Joose Juice. First off, I will say that this seems like a great forum! I look forward to posting a bit more in the future. For now though, I’m looking to see if what I have received from Joose Juice is normal, or if anyone has experienced something similar… I will say that the service received was first class, super quick delivery, a plethora of options, and those prices are incredible. I placed an order for 7 different flavours in 10ml bottles. Apple Pie, Chocolate Fudge Brownie, Hazelnut, Pistachio, Pina Colada, Banana Nut Bread and 1 other that I can’t remember. I bought them in 18mg strength, and a variety of different PG/VG ratios. I also opted for high flavour concentration (20% extra I think). When I got them, I had a sniff, all smelled OK. Tried a couple in a mini dripper, but got hardly any vapour and no throat hit at all. Thinking that it was probably just a lame coil I had built I put a little in a Kayfun, and some in a Mini Protank 3. Still hardly any vapour and next to no throat hit. What worries me is also the consistency of the juice. The 30/70 mix is thinner than most 70/30 mixes I have tried, and the vapour is like a watery mist rather than the nice thick vapour I would expect from a higher VG juice. I was unsure if steeping would help so I put them away in the shoe box for 10 days, and they are exactly the same. Hardly any throat hit, even on the high PG juices I bought, poor vapour even on the high VG juices. Are these juices quite light on the throat and weak on the vapour, or do you think there could have been a mishap with my order? I'm not going to make a fuss about it as the whole lot only cost me a tenner. I just want to know if it's worth ordering again really. Cheers all What do people expect for a tenner ! I've used JJ numerous times and never had this problem or any problem come to think of it, I'd put most problems down to user error, or expecting too much from a juice ! Sent from my iPhone using Crapatalk Thanks for the helpful and welcoming response. It's much appreciated.

ruffpuffpastry Leave it to steep a little longer, I leave the caramel I buy from JJ about 6 weeks.

Cheers Lynne I'll pop them back in the shoe box and forget about them for a while. Hopefully the throat hit will develop more in time, as I can live without a ton of vapour. The flavours are pretty good too, so I'll see how they come along after further steeping.

Hi ruffpuffpastry (like the name by the way), steeping will improve the flavour but will have no effect on the lack of vapour you are experiencing. If you have a fresh coil in your tank, and other juices you may have are performing as expected, then I would drop Jim@JJ an e-mail. His customer service is second to none in my experience, I'm sure he will sort you out.

Cheers all You have got too high VG content for the liquid to wick properly in a protank 3 and your mini dripper i suspect has a very tiny airflow hole, if you are using protanks and alike i would tend to stick with 50/50 or 60/40 pg/vg. vapour is a trade off for throat hit BUT a tight airflow is needed for heavy vg juice to wick and will cause you wicking problems from time to time with said tanks.

Hiya Joose Juice :)I was just wondering what has happened to your Strawberry flavour e-liquid?? It's one of my favourite flavours and I went on your site to place an order for some yesterday but it wasn't there, not in the 10ml tasters, the 30ml bottles and not even in your flavour concentrates Strawberries and Cream is still there but it's not really my cup of tea. All the other flavours are still there but plain strawberry has completely disappeared :/ Cheers, Elly

It was definitely there last week as I accidently ordered some instead of strawberries and cream. I contacted Jim to change the order, but my invoice still states strawberry.
