How to choose your first e-liquid?

Published on : 07 July 20203 min reading time

Spraying is an idea to voluntarily stop smoking cigarettes. Beginners who use this method are a little intimidated. The first time you’re going to vaporize, you will have to choose the e-liquid on the multitudes that are available. And do not forget the flavor of your choice. This substance is used in electronic cigarettes. It is composed of propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin and nicotine. With these three components, water and alcohol can be added. After this mixture will be heated by the e-cigarette to have the steam you want.

The basis of the e-liquid: the PG/VG

Two of the indispensable components in the manufacture of the first e-liquid are PG or propylene glycol and VG or vegetable glycerin. PG is a syrupy substance that has no colour and no odour. You could use it in several areas such as cosmetics and food. In spraying, this element is used in the flavour carrier. The goal is to have the taste you want to have. If you mix it with nicotine, it promotes the hit: a feeling of contraction in the throat. For VG, it is like PG but the taste is rather sweet. Contrary to PG, it can produce dense steam when heated.

The rate of PG/VG

There are proportions to be respected when steaming. For example, if the PG level is dominant, then the flavour and the hit, i.e. the throat contraction, are the most favoured. This method is more practical for those who change their habit i.e. the classic cigarette into electronic cigarette. As proportion ordered for the first e-liquid are 70/30 or 80/20. If the rate is equal: 50/50. Then there will be an excellent alliance, a dense vapor and a hit that you will feel very present. If the rate of VG is more dominant, then the steam will be dense as usual but the taste or flavor is altered. And you won’t smell the hit but it will be light. The percentage can be 30/70 or 20/80.

The level of nicotine needed

We can add nicotine to the e-liquid you’re about to tap. This element is the material that makes the classic cigarette addictive. But the electronic cigarette allows you to stop smoking. It can be present in the e-cigarette with low dose to make it less harmful. This proportion is indicated on the box or bottle in mg / ml. Nicotine is the element that can cause the hit in the throat. If it is much more present in the electronic cigarette then it may cause a health hazard. When you vaper your first cigarette with your first e-liquid, then it will have to be equalized with the nicotine level that you currently smoke or before. And decrease this rate gradually. For example, if you are used to smoking 5 cigarettes a day, you could administer 3 and 6mg/ml.
