Still working with it, I feel it does produce more vapour, but that vapour is heavier and more, for want of a better word, damper or moister. I vape Max VG and when you use Inawera and Flavourart flavours as standalones that can only mean <2% dilution to 98% of VG which vaping subohm 0.2ohms in TC or High Watts isn’t the safest with regards the boiling point of pure VG without water and isn’t best for my lungs tbh. So I have started adding distilled water to my own mixes at 10-15% so see how that goes.
Have not had to add any sweetener of any description to my own mixes now since I changed, would like to think that is due to the VG, but it may be my tastes and vaping equipment have changed at the same time? It is certainly more noticeable with the finger taste test, tried it with a couple of other pure VG bottles I have, and it gives by far the sweetest taste on the tongue, of all of them.
I would buy it again (and have), is it better (still deciding) costs no more than rapeseed or soy versions and you can buy it in 1 litre sizes here in the UK. I would recommend anyone give it ago for themselves, but if you mix Max VG, definitely thin it out with water, is my main recommendation
I have found three different types of vegetable glycerin (VG )on the American market. My personal preference is the palm kernel, but we are going to look at all three.
Soy: This is usually the lowest grade of VG. Some people say that it tastes different than the others, mutes flavors, and to be honest, I haven’t a clue as I just haven’t bothered to try it because of:
Palm Grade VG: This is a bit sweeter than the soy and has a more neutral tasteless odor and flavor. This is the most popular on the market and is used by the majority of companies. Unless otherwise specified, this is usually what you are getting when you order VG.
Palm Kernel VG: This is the cleanest and the best you can get. It has no muting effects whatsoever, is a little bit thinner than the palm and the soy, and a little bit sweeter. It is more expensive on average and MUCH harder to find on the market. Is it worth the difference? I think so.
the palm kernel peaked my interest but the first thing that popped up when i went to research it was this
" Palm fruit oil is often claimed to be highly nutritious and contains about equal amounts of saturated and unsaturated oils. Palm kernel oil is made from the kernel, or seed of the palm fruit and contains much higher amounts of saturated fat. Both are problematic for our health primarily due to processing. " Jan 17, 2014
that being said id like to look further into it , if you have any knowledge that you can provide that would be great
As Nic River no longer ship to the UK, you can buy Musim Mas VG from Liquid Barn who do still ship to the UK.
But I have recently ordered from here: specialingredients.co.uk as ther VG is also Palm based and I can’t tell the difference from the Musim Mas VG.
I too have been using VG from Bulk Apothecary and think it tastes better then the VG I received from Nude Nicotine. I’m rather new to mixing and that’s the only comparison I have to work off of. And if you buy in bulk its hard to beat $19,665 for a 45,000lb tanker truck of VG.
The stuff sold by bulk apothecary is pretty sweet but for some reason my skin gets angry when I use it. If not that than nicotine river seems sweet to me. I find it strange when YouTubers always push Japanese organic cotton but not push for organic vg though.
Weird. Probably too costly anyway.
Ah, that sucks. I just finished ordering a gal from Nic River this morning, the price is about the same but the shipping is almost twice as much however bulk apothecary doesn’t carry nicotine and that was the swayed my decision. Ive had all good experiences with both Nicotine River and Bulk Apothecary
