It's 50% sugar bonnieboy. I would imagine it would gunk your coils quicker than you can blink. I would stick with TPAs sweetener. You use so little of it that a bottle lasts for ages

Some sweetener at a great price here bonnieboy, as it also includes shipping . . .

The problem with any supermarket sweeteners is that while they're fine for ingesting, the ingredients aren't necessarily safe or pure enough for our purposes.

Best to stick with that then bonnieboy.


Although I've a sweet tooth . . . many concentrates I find are already sweet enough for my tastes, so I don't use a vast amount of sweetener. A 10ml bottle lasts me a good while.
