What is the base of vape juice?

Every vape juice has a base that forms the clouds that you see when vaping and dilutes the nicotine and flavors to the desired strengths. The base is made from a blend consisting of vegetable glycerin and propylene glycol. By varying the ratio of those two ingredients, an e-liquid maker can change the characteristics of a vape juice. One of the characteristics of an e-liquid high in PG is that it can produce a strong throat hit. That’s precisely what some people want when they’re trying to make the switch to vaping. Other people, though, find that a high-PG e-liquid tends to produce a scratchy sensation in the throat – and that can lead to coughing. Switching to a high-VG e-liquid may alleviate the problem. High-VG e-liquid feels much softer in the throat, so you may find that it doesn’t cause you to cough when vaping.
