PG/VG ratios...

You'll be sick of my silly questions

I've been vaping 10 days now (go me) and still prefer my first bottle of juice. It's a Smooth Menthol by Liberro and it seems to be PG only. I've found that most of the new flavours I've tried have at least some VG in them, but I don't like the throat harshness.

From what I've read most folks like a throat hit, but I think I prefer more flavour and less choke.

Do many vendors offer PG only juice, and can you recommend any?

Most of the good vendors would mix a PG only juice if you ask them to Angela.

I think Easy Liquid's juices are all PG.

Most people find that PG gives more of a throat hit than VG

Paradise vape gives a choice of VG 50/50 or mostly PG

Most vendors offer PG only, but I'm pretty sure it's PG that gives the most throat hit, and VG that gives a more smooth vape with much more vapour.

I think both Dekang and Hangsen are PG, though I could be wrong. If I'm right, then many places sell their juices. Easy E liquids sell both brands, They sell hangsen under the 'KoKo' brand, and Dekang under their own 'Easy' brand.

very cheap too £2.49 for 10ml last time I looked. EDIT: Just looked and it's £3.75 now, still cheap, but you may find better deals using codes.

Maybe try this, you can select your own ratio, and flavour strength, you can even add secondary flavourings to make your own mixes... all for £2.49 for 10ml

Don't know if there are any codes, but it's cheap enough anyway.

You're right Alvo. PG gives the extra throat hit and a lot of the flavour, VG gives the majority of the vapour and some sweetness.

Thanks Anne... I swear your original post wasn't there when I started typing mine... lol... Crossed post, sorry.

Check what it says on the bottle you bought angel, it does sound more like PG you're vaping?

[kibbutzangel]

It's this one I've got www.liberro.co.uk/liberro-liquid/smooth-menthol-liberro-liquid and the bottle says PG. I've checked their website but can't find any more info on their juice.

Hmm, so I wonder if there's something about VG that my throat doesn't like.

[Karma]

i would have thought that your throat would react more to PG than VG but we are all different.

I wouldn't totally discount VG yet as it's early days and things can change, your body will be de-toxing from the nasties.

Go with some of the suggestions above for PG juice if that's suiting you at the moment, but probably best to buy small quantities while everything, including your tastebud are adjusting

Great advice from Karma there. I have gone on, off, and back on juices so many times during my first few months. Everything settles down eventually though, then you will really start to learn what you do and don't like.

........... after you've spent a small fortune and have gallons of juice taking up all the food space in your fridge

I'm on rations now karma, missus has put my under strict spending controls, We get paid tomoz, and I'm not allowed to spend any more than I have already cleared with her Mind you that is almost £100 worth

You should be able to get some good goodies for £100

Only 1 more day to wait

[alvoram]

Yeh got some nice goodies coming, decent amount of my regular flavours, and some goodies like decent 18650 batteries, tanks, cartos, and vision ego's. Not much room for trying new flavours though.
