How to Get the Best Flavor & Performance from Your VGOD Vape
Vaping is more than just a nicotine fix—it’s about flavor, smoothness, and performance. Whether you're chasing rich, bold flavors or perfect cloud production, your vape experience depends on a few key factors.
If you’ve ever felt like your vape tastes muted, your clouds aren’t as thick, or something just feels off, this guide is for you. Here’s how to maximize both flavor and performance with your VGOD device.
1. Choose the Right E-Liquid for Maximum Flavor
Not all vape juices are created equal. The quality, composition, and nicotine type of your e-liquid can make or break your experience.
Understanding E-Liquid Types: SaltNic vs. Freebase
Your e-liquid’s nicotine type directly affects flavor, throat hit, and overall satisfaction.
✔ SaltNic (Nicotine Salts):
A smoother, more potent form of nicotine that absorbs quickly into the bloodstream.
Best suited for low-wattage pod systems like the VGOD Pod Pro.
Delivers a stronger hit without harshness, making it ideal for ex-smokers.
✔ Freebase Nicotine:
The purest form of nicotine, commonly used in high-powered vape devices.
Produces more vapor and offers a stronger throat hit than SaltNic.
Works best in sub-ohm tanks and high-wattage setups.
What is VG and PG?
VG (Vegetable Glycerin) and PG (Propylene Glycol) are the two main ingredients in e-liquid, and their ratio affects both flavor and vapor production.
✔ VG (Vegetable Glycerin):
Creates thick vapor clouds and provides a smoother inhale.
Found in higher amounts in cloud-chasing juices (70% VG or more).
✔ PG (Propylene Glycol):
Enhances flavor and throat hit but produces less vapor.
Higher PG levels (50/50 blends) are common in SaltNic juices for a stronger hit.
🔥 Pro Tip: If you want bold flavor, choose an e-liquid with a balanced VG/PG ratio (50/50 or 60/40). If you love massive clouds, go for higher VG juices (70/30 or more).
2. Maintain a Clean Device for Pure Flavor
🔥 Why it matters: A dirty vape device ruins the taste of your e-liquid and can cause burnt or muted flavors.
✔ Clean your tank or pod regularly
For refillable pods: Check for and wipe clean any condensation or leaking at the base of the pod where the contacts meet the device. Also check and wipe clean the device contacts, the area where the pod mates with the device.
For tanks: Disassemble, rinse all parts, and let them dry completely to avoid moisture buildup.
✔ Change coils or pods on time
If you start tasting burnt or weak flavor, it’s time for a new coil or pod.
Heavy vapers may need a new coil every 1-2 weeks, while light users can stretch it longer.
✔ Avoid flavor ghosting
If switching flavors, clean your tank or use a new coil to prevent unwanted flavor mix-ups.
3. Optimize Your Vaping Technique
🔥 Why it matters: How you inhale affects both flavor and vapor production.
✔ What is MTL and DTL Vaping?
MTL (Mouth-to-Lung) and DTL (Direct-to-Lung) are the two main vaping techniques. The right one depends on your device and personal preference.
✔ MTL (Mouth-to-Lung) – Best for SaltNic & Pod Systems
Similar to smoking a cigarette—you draw vapor into your mouth first, then inhale into your lungs.
Produces a stronger throat hit and works best with higher nicotine strengths (SaltNic).
Ideal for discreet, flavorful vaping.
✔ DTL (Direct-to-Lung) – Best for Freebase & High-Wattage Devices
You inhale vapor directly into your lungs, like taking a deep breath.
Produces large clouds and a smoother hit.
Works best with lower nicotine strengths (3-6mg Freebase).
🔥 Pro Tip: If you prefer a cigarette-like experience, go for MTL vaping. If you love massive clouds and smooth vapor, DTL is for you.
4. Adjust Your Power Settings for the Best Hit
🔥 Why it matters: Too much power burns your e-liquid. Too little power weakens the taste.
✔ Follow the recommended wattage range for your coil and e-liquid.
Lower wattage (10-20W): Best for SaltNic e-liquids, enhancing smoothness and nicotine delivery.
Higher wattage (50W+): Best for Freebase e-liquids, amplifying cloud size and boldness.
✔ Adjust airflow for flavor vs. cloud balance
Tighter airflow = More intense flavor
Looser airflow = Bigger clouds, lighter taste
Pro Tip: Find the “sweet spot” for each juice. Start at a lower wattage and gradually increase until you hit the perfect balance of warmth, vapor, and taste.
5. Store Your E-Liquid Properly
🔥 Why it matters: E-liquid degrades over time, losing potency and taste.
✔ Keep bottles sealed and away from heat & sunlight.
Exposure to heat, air, and light can break down nicotine and flavors, making them harsh or tasteless.
✔ Shake before use.
Flavors settle over time, so a quick shake ensures a consistent mix.
✔ Don’t let e-liquid sit too long in your tank.
Old juice = Dull flavor & gunk buildup on your coil.
6. Use Fresh Batteries for Peak Performance
🔥 Why it matters: Low battery power = weak hits and inconsistent flavor.
✔ For disposable vapes: If your hits feel weak, the battery is running low. Time to recharge or switch to a fresh device.
✔ For refillable pod systems: Charge before the battery gets too low to maintain consistent power output.
7. Avoid Chain Vaping to Prevent Burnt Hits
✔ What is Chain Vaping?
Chain vaping happens when you take multiple puffs in quick succession, not giving the coil enough time to re-saturate with e-liquid.
🔥 Why it matters: Chain vaping overheats the coil, causing burnt or dry hits—which ruins flavor and shortens coil life.
✔ How to prevent it:
Take short breaks between puffs to let the coil absorb more e-liquid.
If you notice a burnt taste, stop immediately and check your coil.
Final Thoughts: Elevate Your Vape Experience
Getting the best flavor and performance from your vape is about more than just picking the right e-liquid—it’s about how you maintain your device, fine-tune your settings, and perfect your technique.
