I briefly mentioned this in another thread of mine, the juice i have just made has a very pepper like taste to it. After some reading and what another member mentioned in another thread it sounds most likely that its the nicotine concentrate i am using. so what i am wondering is there any way of me fixing the liquid i have made up or will it all have to be thrown?

All the e liquid i made is 20% flavoring (Vamp Vape concentrate), 80VG/20PG and 6MG nic.

Going to try a different vendor for my bases from now on!

Cheers :D
 
Also which vv concentrate is it cos I've had a few and some are really sour. Although not peppery that does suggest off nic.

Do a bit more research before you chuck it out, there may not be anything wrong with it apart from the taste.

Is your nic in VG? Nicotine is more stable in PG so that is more likely to be the problem than the source.

I've just opened the bottle of Vamp Vape I got at Vapefest and it's bloody good. I feel such a tit, it was in the bargain bucket for a quid and I only got one!
 
If you have a bad batch of nic in pg it will be the first I have noticed in the threads here in the last year or so, though I have noticed a few threads aboud bad nic in vg base.
If you bought it off a reputable supplier recently they should replace it.
 
Just read through again thought you meant vampire Vape lol my apologies, the chance of anything from T-Juice tasting peppery is prob very slim love there vv but not tried 20% though 15 for me.
 
I ordered a starter kit of vapeable and i'm using the nic that came with that. Yeah its in a VG base as i like my higher VG liquids. I have ordered some more from a different supplier going to give that a try see how it comes out.
 
If you think theres something wrong with the taste of your nic make a small sample of your given strength with NO flavour you could also try vaping some of your pg and vg on its own
 
if the finished juice is peppery then there isnt a lot your going to be able to do to it to make it better.
you could try adding more flavour to try and mask it but that will throw your ratios out and lower the nic level.
if you havnt made much just chalk it down to wxperience and bin it.
a peppery tasste does suggest an off nic base to me, what coulor is your base? is it a darker colour and does it smell a bit peppery.
