Can't quite get it right

[tartanthing]

My fun in mixology is leaving me a little baffled. I have tried a few concentrates of various types but seem to keep having the same problem with all my mixes, hard to describe but they are all a little 'fluffy' like maybe a sort of cotton wool type sensation whilst vaping. I am going to have a wee go at recleaning my gear with Miltons which seems highly regarded but I get the same with even brand new Kanger Evod's.

Some examples; I LOVE Swedish fish from Alba, but can't get the same with their own concentrate. Its very obviously concentrated, but the same amazing sherbet sparkle just isn't there. I have some of their Honey Nut concentrate, I love the smell of it, but my mix is bleurgh. I also have what is my most successful which is an Inawera Blackcurrant, but I seem to be way over the concentration levels.

So, is there any way to 'sharpen' my mixes? I have been thinking maybe an ethyl maltol mix may help as I have a sweet tooth (but why do I feel i need to add it to everything?)

Also I could do with some suggestions for a sweet cherry concentrate and does anyone know of a Port type flavouring?

What sort of pg / vg ratio are you using? is it the same as what you are buying, a lot of devices don't like too much vg.

It is a 24mg premix I got from LTecigs, I assumed it was a 70/30, have sent them an email to find out!

PS i can't wait a month for more of your cool orange, I just reordered some moments ago

70/30 should be ok. it could be that you are sensitive to pg?

Sorted, I got a reply from Flemming @ LTecigs, he tells me it's a 50/50, so I'm going to experiment with stronger nic and separate pg and try some different ratio's. I did think that I may of had a PG prob but I get dry mouth from meds I have, it has settled down now I have been vaping a couple of months.
Nothing like the fun of a learning curve!
