Vaping 101: What Type of E-liquid Should I Be Using?
Here at Electric Tobacconist, we’re often asked about which vape liquid our UK customers should be using. With over 700 varieties of e-liquid available at Electric Tobacconist, choosing the right ones for you can sometimes become a tricky task.
There are some important factors you need to remember before you purchase any e-liquid. Remember: don’t judge a book by its cover. Two vape liquids could look exactly the same on the outside of the bottle, but the difference could be massive!
We’re not here to talk about which vape liquid flavour is best. We’ll leave that down to you as you explore the endless selection of flavours available to you. We just want to explain some of the ingredients that go into your e-liquid and the ways that they can affect your vape.
In each bottle of vape liquid in the UK, you will find 95% is glycerin/glycol. The other 5% is water, liquid nicotine and flavourings. The glycerin/glycol refers to either vegetable glycerin (VG) or propylene glycol (PG). These substances form the main body of your e-liquid and give your vape certain characteristics, depending on the ratio of one to another.
