Share
Looking for big clouds, smooth hits, or how to get started with vaping? If you’re new to e-liquids, or just want to make sure you’re getting the most out of your e-liquid, this guide has you covered. From choosing the right device to proper maintenance, here’s everything you need to know to vape like a pro.
What Is E-Liquid?
E-liquid, also called vape juice, is what fuels your vape device. It’s a mix of four ingredients: vegetable glycerin (VG), propylene glycol (PG), food-grade flavoring, and nicotine (depending on your preference). When heated by your vape’s coil, it turns into vapor that delivers both flavor and satisfaction.
E-liquid is a vital component to your vaping experience. But, how do you use it? Well, let’s break it down for you step-by-step.
1. Choose Your Nicotine Type: Freebase vs. Nicotine Salt
Before anything else, pick the e-liquid that fits your style:
-
Freebase Nicotine: Smooth hits and higher vapor production—perfect for cloud chasers and flavor enthusiasts.
- Nicotine Salt (Salt Nic): Faster nicotine absorption, gentler on the throat, ideal for smaller devices and on-the-go vapers.
Tip: Your device and vaping style will often determine which type works best. Small pod devices usually pair better with nicotine salts, while larger tanks thrive with freebase e-liquids.
2. Choose the Right Device
E-liquids are compatible with a variety of devices, but the most common are refillable pod systems and standard vape mod tanks. When picking your device, consider:
-
Nicotine Strength: Higher nicotine works best with smaller devices.
-
Wattage & Coil Compatibility: Check your coil resistance and recommended wattage for the best flavor and vapor production.
- Refillable vs. Disposable: Refillable pods let you switch flavors easily, while disposables are convenient for on-the-go use.
Pro Tip: Choose the device that works best with the e-liquid you like. Smaller pod devices are most compatible with nicotine salt e-liquids and bigger tanks are most compatible with freebase e-liquids. And remember, always use fresh coils for peak flavor.
3. How to Fill Your Device
Filling your e-liquid shouldn’t be tricky. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown:
- Open the Pod or Tank: Remove the pod or tank from your device.
-
Add E-Liquid: Slowly fill the tank, avoiding the central airflow tube.
-
Let It Sit: Allow 2–5 minutes for the e-liquid to saturate the coil.
- Reassemble and Vape: Your device is ready to deliver that full e-liquid flavor.
Tip: Overfilling can cause leaks. Less is more when it comes to e-liquid.
4. Adjust Settings for Your Perfect Vape
Modern vape devices let you adjust wattage or airflow. Play around with your settings to find your perfect balance between flavor and vapor.
-
Lower Wattage: Smooth, flavorful hits.
- Higher Wattage: Bigger clouds, more intense flavor.
5. Maintain Your Device
To keep vaping enjoyable:
-
Clean your tank regularly.
-
Replace coils every 1–2 weeks or when flavor decreases.
- Store your e-liquid in a cool, dark place to maintain freshness.
Pro Tip: Keeping your gear clean maximizes flavor and extends the life of your device.
