Having a bit of an issue with taste. I have some liquids which I got from Vape Mail and am not really tasting any flavour. I'm pretty sure they are steeped well because people have reviewed the flavours on YouTube and given them good ratings and stuff but I don't really get anything. It doesn't taste bad and it doesn't taste good either.

I'm wondering if I have bought the wrong coils? I have a Smok Alien 220W mod and a TFV8 Baby Tank with V8 Baby Q2 0.4 Ohms coils (I bought the coils from Fast Tech) and am vaping at 65W and I'm just not getting the flavour. I can smell the liquid and it smells good but no taste. Does anyone have any hints as to why that is at all?

How long should flavouring like Caramelised banana, custard and brown sugar in an mix be left to steep?

AT LEAST 2 weeks. Custards are one of the most demanding flavours in terms of steep time, often regardless of the manufacturer. Keep a little notepad, try it each week and note how it changes

I use VapeMail, too. Certainly nothing wrong with yer liquids... or your Mod. It's the tank that governs flavour, clouds, etc. More specifically the coils.

I have the Smok Big Baby and the Cloud Beast. Their coils are utter cack. All of them. Even the guys at our local vape shops don't rate them.
The general opinion is that they rushed the design to get in early while all the TPD mess was kicking off.
Basically, they chuck clouds, but the flavour is for dog-spit.

Today I'm rocking the Cloud Beast with a T8 octuple coil... but while it spits plumes out at just 70w (rated for 120-180), the flavour is sorely lacking and even starts to taste off after a while. Even my old Cleito has better performance.

Depends on what concentrates you used.

Got myself a fingerprint magnet.

So pretty to look at, tastes amazing too. Asmodus Minikin 2 with the new Crown 3.

Been rocking the same setup for a month now. My go to 'day out' carry! Best sub ohm tank for flavour paired with one of the best dual 18650 mods ever made. Can't get much better when your out and about!

Nice! Which coils do you use? And what temps/wattage you running at?

Have decided its time to quit the cigarettes again, after the last packet in my sleeve that I bought.
I need a new vape asap. So could you kind chaps help me out and link me a good cloud chucker, some nice liquid but while being good value for money and giving me the throat hit I need.
However, I have been using a Lost Vape Triade DNA250 for a few months with a TFV12 on top and frankly its way too big for daily use, and is more of a desk vape than anything, need something smaller as I will be working away and really dont want to be buying tabs down there.

theaterix · 30 May 2017 at 18:32

Also, in desperate need of nice liquid, sick of all the garbage I have been getting and with working away really dont have time to be mixing my own. So some good value liquid websites would be appreciated

maybe a more mtl setup? be a bit closer to the ol' cigs and the battery/juice efficiency is measured in days rather than minutes

Thats pretty much what I am after, its just what setup I go with...

pgi947 · 30 May 2017 at 20:33

If you're not building then a nautilus 2 paired with a Battlestar would be a nice little mtl carry...

Are Jackamoo ejuices ok? Thinking of getting some of their blue slush flavour in 120 ml.

except for lemon oreo and twister flavours, yes, yes they are.

it's tricky, my current mtl set-up is a kanger subtank running the .50 coils, technically the serpent mini does the same job but i haven't yet figured out the wicking for that properly.

Blue Slush is pretty much the only thing I vape now, even ordered another 200ml nic free.

.5 coil heads at 80 watts, though it's worth noting that they've seriously underrated them. I've had the .5 at 100watts with zero issues, though obvs it will shorten there life span.

Not posted here in a while, Jackamoo juice is very good, i love Jam Roly Poly and custard and Scream.

Just completed the build on this, designed the box myself in 123Design and Windows 3D Builder, then printed it on my XYZPrinting Da Vinci Mini W.
just under 85mm tall, 59mm wide and 26mm deep.

Looks a very tidy build, Ive got a custom DNA200 from bioboxmods which cost me a small fortune, wish I had the time (and ability) to attempt something like that.
