4 Smart Tips to find your VG/PG ratio!

Posted by River Supply on May 24th, 2021

When it comes to e-juice, the words Vegetable Glycerin and Propylene Glycolcome up often. To the newbies, this can seem perplexing, but understanding these two ingredients will greatly enhance your vaping experience and our PEG supplierare always at your service.

Here's a quick rundown of the tips you need to know about VG and PG.

What is the difference between Vegetable Glycerin and Propylene Glycol?

To put it plainly:

• To make e-juice, odourless liquids called PG and VG are mixed with flavour and nicotine.
• Both PG and VG are classified as alcohols in the chemical world ( they are not intoxicating).
• When heated, they emit vapour, which allows them to be inhaled.
• The two fluids have a very different consistency and taste of each other.
• When vaped, they have distinct mouth and throat sensations.
• Most modern e-liquids contain a mixture of the two fluids, but the proportions can differ greatly.

Tips you need to know

Making your e-juice is the perfect way to find your PG/VG "sweet spot." It's incredibly simple to do and inexpensive. There are a few things to keep in mind:

• Unflavored juice- Do you want to find your sweet spot without squandering time and money? Experiment with various proportions of VG and PG. You can find the ideal juice viscosity for your gear and prevent dry hits by using only base liquid and a few cheap plastic e-liquid bottles.

• Steeping – If you make a high-VG juice, it can take longer to steep. This is particularly true in multi-flavour recipes. Single-flavour recipes with a high PG ratio steep faster and are often ready right away.

• Thinning Juice – If you use a high VG ratio in your juice, your coil will have trouble wicking the thick, gloopy liquid. If you don't want to use PG, you can thin out your juice by adding a drop of distilled water to each 10 mL. The cotton will absorb the liquid more quickly as a result of this. Don't go too crazy with this... a little goes a long way.

• Flavour concentrates – The vast majority of flavour concentrates on the market are suspended in PG. When making high VG e-juice, it's important to keep this in mind because the more flavour you use, the lower the VG. Flavourings suspended in VG may be purchased, but this is a rare occurrence.

End Note

Many vapers enjoy experimenting with different PG/VG ratios, gadgets, and flavours at different times. Tobaccos, vegetables, and soda flavours all work well with PG because the sharpness of the PG complements the tartness or fizz of the flavouring. Similarly, flavours that are based on milk, custard, or yoghurt perform well with high VG because the thick mouth sensation adds to the dessert-like feel. There are no hard and fast rules; simply listen to your palate and choose our amazing PEG suppliers!
