Really 'dry' vape... why?!

[Liath]

Numpty question I'm sure, but I've been tooting away today on a new juice and though the taste is great, it's REALLY drying... I know vaping causes a dry mouth, but this is 'extra dry' if that makes sense!

Is it to do with the VG/PG ratio? Am I doing something wrong? Suggestions gratefully received, love the flavour, can't cope with the sensation

Do you know what the pg/vg ratio is? High vg liquids can cause wicking problems.

 

[clint]

And what atomizer are you using?

I can get the same when I vape apple flavours. What are you vaping on/with?

 

[Raguri]

Simple personal response: High VG levels.
currently vaping 90% vg (10% is flavouring) for cloud making... SERIOUSLY dry mouth afterwards. But, worth it.

Oh god, I knew you lot would ask me technical questions like what is it, what ratio is it , what kit am I using.... ummm, it's menthol... I can't remember which one, but I'll go and check in a minute.... I'm using the clearo I got with my ego battery... a shite one, I'm sure... errr, CE5+...

What can I tell you? I'm a newbie numpty, I have no clue what I'm doing and (very unusually for this time of night, or anytime come to that!) I'm two pints and a glass of red down.....

In fact, just ignore me, I'll come back after the weekend.... it's going to be a heavy one

Please don't beat me up.
But it appears to me as, new kit + new very tasty juice = enjoying it to much and over done it.
VG (vegetable glycerin) is the same stuff they use in cough mixture, to dry your cold out. So you need to drink more when vaping.

So you need to drink more when vaping.

Plus drinking lager and red wine which could be drying your throat!

Water that is

Hmmm, yes, you could have a point... though I'd noticed the dry mouth/throat BEFORE I started on the pop....!
