Introducing the Craziest & Funkiest Juice

Funky Juice is a brand-new range of eLiquids by iBreathe. They have been crafted with precision, to be richer & fuller in flavour and to cater for a wide taste palate. Available in large 50ml bottles and Nic Shot ready, Funky Juice has been designed with the recreational vaper in mind.

Perfect for Cloud Chasing

Formulated using 70% vegetable glycerol (VG) and 30% propylene glycol (PG), the high VG content produces large volumes of vapour clouds. Funky Juice is suited for use with coil resistances lower than 1.0 Ohm. For optimum performance, a coil resistance between 0.15 – 0.5 Ohm is recommended.

Large 50ml Bottles

Each Funky Juice flavour comes in a large 50ml bottle. That’s fives times more eLiquid than a traditional 10ml bottle, offering you the best value for money.

5 Unique Flavours

Available in 5 unique flavours, you won’t find an eLiquid that tastes the same as Funky Juice. If you love your sweet & aromatic flavours, Magic Mango is the one for you. For the fruit fans, you can’t go wrong with the trio of strawberry, orange & blackcurrant in S.O.B. Fancy a refreshing & tangy vape? Then look no further than Lemon Crush and Twisted Apple. And let’s not forget the menthol fans – Tropical Freeze offers an icy inhale with a fruity twist.

Need Nicotine?

Funky Juice does not contain any nicotine. For those who require a nicotine hit, simply add a 10ml iBreathe Nic Shot to your Funky Juice. Adding a 10ml Nic Shot to a 50ml Funky Juice will provide a finished nicotine strength of 3mg/ml. iBreathe Nic Shot will be available in early 2018.

What is a flooded atomiser coil and how do I avoid it from happening?

A flooded atomiser coil is one where the cotton has over-saturated, to the point where it can’t absorb any more eLiquid, and this causes the excess eLiquid to leak into the centre air hole.

eLiquid that has flooded into the air hole is difficult to vaporise due to its minimal contact with the heating element (coil). This poses the risk of drawing eLiquid instead of vapour, up the air hole whilst using your eCigarette. The sound of liquid slurping whilst taking a draw is often the sign that your atomiser coil has flooded. If you continue to take a draw, you run the risk of eLiquid getting into your mouth. This can be harmful, especially if your eLiquid contains nicotine.

2 steps you can take to avoid flooding your atomiser coil

  • Fill your eCigarette tank with an adequate amount of eLiquid, just enough so that you’re able to finish it. The general rule is, don’t fill up more than you can finish. Failing to do so will result in the eLiquid sitting in the cotton for long durations, increasing the chances of it leaking into the atomiser coil’s air hole and flooding.
  • If your eCigarette is filled with eLiquid, try to use it regularly. By leaving it unused and idle for long durations, the cotton inside of the atomiser coil will slowly absorb more and more eLiquid, to the point where it becomes excessive, causing it to leak into the air hole and around the outside of your tank.

How to clean up your flooded atomiser coil

Get plenty of tissue, wrap it around the outside of your eCigarette tank and hold it tight. Now gently blow into the mouthpiece. Doing so will push eLiquid down the air hole and in an outwardly direction, forcing it out of the tank and into the tissue.

Why does my eLiquid taste burnt?

This is a question that’s asked quite often amongst those in the eCigarette and vaping industry, particularly by those who use advanced eCigarettes, or sub-ohm & MOD kits.

So why is this a common issue amongst advanced vapers?

To begin, it’s important to note that advanced eCigarette kits operate at a much higher wattage & temperature than smaller, pen-like starter eCigarettes.

  • Starter eCigarettes typically operate at wattages of 7 – 14 watts.
  • Sub-ohm/MOD eCigarettes typically operate at anything in the region of 35 – 50 watts, although some of the high-end devices can output excess of 100 watts.

As you can imagine, the difference in temperature between the operating wattages is significant. Before we cover why your eLiquid might taste burnt, we must assume that you’re using a sub-ohm eCigarette with Cloud Liquid that contains at least 50% vegetable glycerol. And whilst there are many factors that can affect the taste of your eLiquid, they are beyond the scope of this article, which is why we will cover the two most common causes.

1. Wattage is too high

This is perhaps the issue that is easiest to fix. Simply keep on reducing the wattage until you are happy with the flavour. Note that if you reduce the wattage too much, there might not be enough heat to vaporise the eLiquid and you risk drawing just air.

2. Pauses in-between draws are too short

Every time you take a draw from your eCigarette, eLiquid stored in the atomiser’s cotton is extracted, causing the cotton to become drier. After taking a draw, particularly a long and fast draw, allow your device to stand for a minute or two before taking your next draw. This will allow adequate time for the cotton to become saturated with eLiquid again. If you are too quick to take another draw, you run the risk of applying heat to the cotton whilst it’s dry, which will of course generate a smoky flavour.

How to choose the right wattage for your E-Liquid

A common misconception, for a newcomer to the vape community, is that they can vape different liquid at the same wattage. Unfortunately, they are wrong, as eLiquids come in a range of viscosity, which depends on the Propylene Glycol (PG) and Vegetable Glycerol (VG) ratio. An eLiquid high in VG ratio would be relatively thick compared to one that is high in PG. An eCigarette works by vaporising eLiquid, hence creating vapour. A viscous liquid would require more heat to vaporise. If you try to vape a much thicker liquid on low wattage, it is likely that you will be taking in mostly air, and sometimes even the liquid itself, rather than vapour.

Some basic rules to go by:

If you take fast draws

A high wattage will ensure the liquid vaporises at an adequate speed. By not increasing the wattage, you risk drawing just air, or possibly liquid, instead of vapour.

If you take slow draws

A lower wattage will be sufficient. However, if too low, you may draw mostly air.

Happy vaping!
