A thicker, stronger vape!

[orenishii88]

My roommate, who is also the one who showed me the light of the ecigs and Volcano, showed me that if you put glycerin in your liquid, it vapes thicker and it also brings out some more of the flavor. Whenever I've gotten a fresh bottle from ELP, I've topped it off with some of his glycerin and I have noticed a difference. I thought I'd throw this out there to anyone who has not tried this neat little trick

The glycerin is what we refer to as VG (Vegetable Glycerin), it makes clouds happen! The juices you usually buy are 80% PG (Propylene Glycol) and 20% VG. It does actually mute the flavor of the juice, but adds sweetness, which comes off as better flavor... sometimes... Just be careful with how much you add, it can make your juice too thick for tankos and plug up the works!

FYI you can go to Wal-Mart and buy a bottle of Humco glycerine (177ml) for about $3. It is in the section with rubbing alcohol and first aid stuff. Then you can have your own.

Your mix should be no more than 80(PG)/20(VG) for use in tanks.

It's a great way to save a bit of money, and you get to feel like a mad scientist!
I'm buying at 100%PG now (except volcano juices, which I will continue to buy because they rock.), I like having full control over the mix. Mainly because some juices are much better with no VG in my opinion, like soda flavors.

So much fun to be had in the wide world of vaping lol.

It definitely will blow up your cloud production! You should check into buying some higher VG juices sometime (as long as you don't use it in tanks). Most places offer either a higher VG mix or 100% VG version of their juices. IMO, the optimal percentage to get huge clouds but still maintain flavor is about 60% VG. Much above that and you don't really get much more vapor and the flavor just drops off, much below 60% and you start losing lots of vapor but get a little more flavor.

Ah ha! Now I know what VG means! I'm still such a n00b at this, but I love how much I've learned from you guys so far. Thanks!

A friend of mine recently told me that he hoped vape talk would be merged with English one day. I told him it already was but many of us just hated typing so we abbreviated many things. I don't know if everything is in here, but this post may help. vaping-glossary-terms-t1971.html?hilit=definitions#p25792

OK! All you smartyboots' what is Glycene? And did I spell that right? I thought I saw on the V tobacco flavor it is listed as an ingrediant (if I'm not mistaken, which wouldn't be out of the question).

Glycerine is just another name for VG (Vegetable Glycerine).

I read it wrong then! Getting old sucks! Will vaping carrot juice help my eyes?
