harsh throat hit...help!!

[TNgirl84]

So i just started diy e juice making and i bought 48mg VG nicotine base. Ive made a 80/20 mix and it was too harsh so i went down to 90/10 mix and im making them a 3 nic but im still getting a bad throat hit. Would the nicotine i bought have anything to do with this?

Is possible, yes. Did you shake it up really well?

What Huck said and try making 0mg. if it's alright it kinda points to the nic. but like Huck said shake it well

Yeah I shook it really well using anow electric coffee wish. I will try doing a 0 nic and see if that is the issue. Thanks guys

What flavoring brand and flavor are you using?.........What % flavoring are you doing?.......Are you steeping your liquid, and if so, how long?........What devices are you vaping on?

Could be a bad batch of NIC too, and shipping in this hot weather doesn't help much.
Some brands are more harsh than others.

Too much flavoring can sometimes be harsh.

But I can even get it from a dirty coil sometimes.

Use process of elimination to find the culprit.

You said 80/20 and 10/90, but you didn't say if its pg/vg or vg/pg.

If your pg is that high, then that's the problem. Try 50% pg or lower.
