help please...bit gutted

[baggieboy999]

Hi again , made some water melon juice this morning . Tried using the milk frother method and now i should leave longer but just tried a little bit to see if the taste was there.

Now i always buy juices that are 50/50 pg ag and 18ml Nic.

Well i tried a bit and loved the hint of watermelon flavour seemed bang on , but the vapour produced seemed really poor and it really killed my throat. My Nic base is Pg and entered everything correctly on the calculator . So apart from the flavour being perfect why does everything else seem way off ? . Should i try a 30 pg 70 vg mix??

Well gutted tbh and could do with a bit of advice

Let it steep longer, it takes a few days for the ingredients to infuse completely . . . you could also try some Vape Wizard to smooth out any rough edges.

What ratio of VG did you add?

[baggieboy999]

This is what i did , using pg 54mg based mg..

3.3 mls nic
0.7 pg
5.0 vg
1.0 watermelon

I usually love a long slow vape , but its impossible cause it kills my throat and there's hardly any vapour .

Could steeping longer be the problem ?

Recipe is spot on. What pg are you using? And whats your atty and battery/mod

[Perpetua]

Well you ought to be getting a fair amount of vapour with that VG ratio . . . though I still think it needs longer to infuse and for the components to blend properly together.

Personally I wouldn't dream of trying anything I'd made only a few hours ago, give it 2/3 days and then see what it's like baggieboy999.

Pg is from ltecigs if that's what you meant using a mvp2 with a iclear 30 . It did seem to gurgle for a stange reason but it just seems really harsh

[teethcv]

baggieboy999 you should really go more on the vg if you are getting to much throat hit and vg give more vaper and pg it for the hit so maybe swap the pg nic for a vg nic and do a 70/30 vg/pg mix wil do the trick for you

[baggieboy999]

I went for pg based cause vg is easier to grab from boots ets , and my mate who i usually get my juices from uses it and does 50/50 mix at 18mg strength. But mine just seems like 24 mg or 32 even though its not

[Perpetua]

I'll say it again . . . let it steep for 2/3 days, you've given the ingredients absolutely no time whatsoever to blend. It's not surprising it's still rough at this stage.

If it still seems a bit harsh after that time, pick up some Vape Wizard to smooth it out.

And get your pg from eBay, its alot cheaper £7 and a bit for a litre

[Roscopecotrain]

Have to agree with perps, always leave any mix at least a few days until i try it and the smooth stuff to add is great. I put it in all my fruit mixes.

If you want to test your juices early its better to use a dripping attie rather than a tank
That will give you a bit more of an accurate guide to the flavour strength
some mixes are ok after a couple days and others (especially custards) take a couple of weeks steeping min.
If the tank is gurgling then it sounds like its flooded give it a good blow through and make sure you clean and dry the base and your 510 threads

What you need young padawan, patience is. Yeesssssss.

[baggieboy999]

What is this patients you talk of lol....just can't understand how it feels so strong , i could understand if no flavour was there...

Ill go and leave it to steep with the mother in law , that way i know ill never be tempted to go there haha

[baggieboy999]

And auto speller is as rubbish as my melon doh

[300]

50/50 should produce good vapour regardless of taste or TH.

As above...... if your atty's gurgling dry it out.

One of the flavours i mix is a shake 'n' vape with no steeping required & produces good vapour straight away so don't see why yours shouldn't.
