What is VG in vaping?
This can seem confusing to the newcomer, but knowledge of these two ingredients can vastly improve your vaping experience. PG and VG are the odourless liquids that are combined with flavour and nicotine (when required) to create e-juice. Both PG (Propylene Glycol) and VG (Vegetable Glycerine) produce vapour when heated, which allow them to be inhaled. The two fluids have a different consistency to each other, and have a slightly different taste, giving distinct mouth and throat sensations when vaped. Most modern e-liquids use a combination of the two fluids, however, the ratio can vary dramatically. Some vaping set up’s can only work with a certain level of PG and VG so it is important to choose the right level for your equipment.
