Right a question for someone or all maybe, I have recently taken to DIY mixing ( oh what fun!!)
I used to vape pre purchased 70/30 mixes ( diamond mist mainly ) I always thought that the first number ie in this case 70 was PG and the second was VG (30) am I wrong as looking at the everyone else on DIY section VG comes first ??? went on diamond mist website and they insist there mixes are 70pg/30vg , can anyone shed some light
LIVE LONG AND VAPE HARD !!!
Most vape shops that I have been to sell their stock liquid as 80pg/20vg or 70pg/30vg unless you request something different. Many folks in the DIY world vape subohm and prefer higher vg content in their liquids as it produces more vapor and a smoother throat hit, therefore we often place vg first in our descriptions.
STEWY YOU STAR !!! , so I have been diy mixing and sticking to 70pg/30vg which is right ,as thats the way i like it uhuh uhuh ta
Traditionally it has been PG/VG, but in the vaping community people have taken to say VG/PG - itās confusing, and people usually have to say for example 80VG or max VG or something like thatā¦ Most use more VG than PG nowadaysā¦ I remember when liquids were only PG
yep cheers , good stuff knew I would find my answer here !!!
I tend to put 70/30 vg/pg people tend to know what I mean
Iāve always labeled pg/vg, just because āpā comes before āvā in the alphabet.
Ahhh, those were the days. Iām glad theyāre over!
I always try to stay as close to 80% VG and 20% PG as the recipe(s) Iām mixing at the time allows ā¦
ā¦ and then some of us quietly rage at the people who put VG first when talking about their ratios.
I guess it doesnāt really matter as long as you label it "PG/VG"or āVG/PGā but I think most people assume PG/VG if you donāt specify.
Still, it vexes me when people list VG first.
When people ask me about my mix ratios, I usually say 80% VG or 75% VG depending on the actual ratios ā¦
Iām a pg/vg guy. Itās easier. Alphabetically.
Personally, i do VG first then PG
I am noticing my recipes do better with 60VG 40PG as far as flavor.
I was doing 80VG but as they steep my flavor goes away.
Its sad because i love a smooth, big cloud hit. But in my worldā¦flavor prevails!
Yupā¦ for some folks, a higher PG content is a must; Iām one of those.
I was hard headed in the beginning and didnāt listen to @daath when he said PG was the better solvent for carrying flavorā¦ I made a great amount of tasteless juice and kept wondering why! After I experienced a blind taste test (my wife helped me with this experiment) using 2 different base mixes (50p/50v v.s. 20p/80v)ā¦ Only after that experiment was I convinced that (for me) PG was indeed the better flavor carrier.
In my notations, PG will always come before VG, because thatās how Iāve written down it from the very beginning of my mixing life. To each their ownā¦ but folks should always notate in their scribblings to the world, which solvent in their base takes higher precedence.
60P/40V v.s. 40V/60P = Who caresā¦ right? Just notate it.
