Most serious cloud chasers opt for lower nicotine levels, often starting with 3mg or even going nicotine-free. There's a practical reason for this - when you're taking those deep, long inhales needed for massive clouds, high nicotine content becomes harsh quickly.
Our shortfill options give you flexibility here. These come as concentrated flavour in larger bottles (usually 100ml or 120ml), leaving space for nic shots if you want to add nicotine later. It's actually quite clever - you can experiment with different strengths without committing to a full bottle.
The 50ml shortfills work well for beginners who aren't sure about their preferred nicotine level yet. Add one 18mg nic shot to a 50ml shortfill and you'll get roughly 3mg strength - perfect for cloud chasing without the throat hit.
What devices work best with high VG cloud liquids?
Sub ohm tanks are pretty much essential. The thicker consistency of 70/30 vape juice won't wick properly in standard clearomizers. You'll want something with larger wick ports and coils designed for high VG liquids.
Power matters too. These liquids need higher wattage to vaporise effectively - usually starting around 40-50 watts minimum. Too low and you'll get poor flavour and minimal vapour production. Too high and you risk burning the liquid, which tastes awful and wastes your juice.
Temperature control can help if your device supports it. VG-heavy liquids can be a bit unpredictable with standard wattage mode, especially when you're pushing higher power levels for maximum cloud production.
Are there different flavour categories for cloud chasing?
Absolutely, and preferences vary wildly among cloud chasers. Fruit flavours tend to work brilliantly with high VG bases - the natural sweetness complements the vegetable glycerin. Dessert flavours can be incredible too, though they sometimes gunk up coils faster.
Menthol and cooling flavours have gained popularity recently. There's something quite satisfying about exhaling massive menthol clouds - the cooling sensation seems enhanced by the larger vapour volume.
Some vapers prefer simpler profiles for cloud chasing, arguing that complex flavours get muddled in high VG mixes. Others disagree completely. It's really about personal preference and finding what works with your setup.
