Question 1

Why Does My Vape Juice Turn Brown?

Accepted Answer

Nicotine can be very reactive with the oxygen in the air, and that can cause it to turn brown.

Even light can cause the nicotine to react and turn the juice brown. This is the same effect that happens after slicing an apple. Even vape juices that have very small amounts of nicotine can become a brownish color. Of course, if there is more nicotine in the juice, then the reaction may be more pronounced. This means that you might end up with a vape juice that is even darker in color.

Avoid agitating the liquid as much as possible to try to avoid oxidizing the juice more. If you shake the bottle, agitation might increase the amount of oxygen that the vape juice absorbs, which can make it become darker.

You may also want to consider not mixing different flavors. This is especially true if you have a new and an old bottle. If you do want to mix them or want to use different flavors, consider mixing them in another, smaller bottle and only mixing what you need to avoid contaminating your fresh bottle.

Question 2

Why Does My Vape Juice Turn Red?

Accepted Answer

Juices that are based in the vegetable glycerin (VG) are often sweeter than those made with

propylene glycol (PG) are. With a lot of heat, the juices can become caramelized on the coil of

the atomizer. This is known as gunk, and it may stain any other liquids you add.

As the level of vape juice in your tank goes down, the color might become more visible. With

extreme cases of using 100 percent vegetable glycerin juices, you might begin with a clear liquid

that becomes a deep red once you get to the end of your tank. And if you add more e-liquid, the

color may become even darker because of the gunk building up on your coil and because of the

residue that remains in the tank.

Question 3

What Are the Benefits of E-Juice?

Accepted Answer

One potential advantage of using an e-juice is that you are not inhaling potentially hazardous

chemicals into your lungs like you are when smoking. This is why some people prefer to do

vaping when they are trying to stop smoking. Many people also enjoy the smell of vaping more

than with smoking. This is because you can find many flavored juices today.

Question 4

Why Is My Device Not Reaching Max Voltage?

Accepted Answer

If your device is not reaching its highest possible voltage, it may be because of the batteries.

Many times, the batteries only last about two to three years. Some might die before this,

especially if you use the pen a lot. If the batteries are dying, there may not be enough power for

the device to fully power on.

You might want to charge the pen, and if it does not charge properly, you may want to replace

your batteries. Or you can dispose of the device and get another one.

Your device may also be damaged. Perhaps it contacted water or fell before the malfunction. The

internal components might be damaged, preventing the right function of it. If your device does

not work after these fixes, consider visiting your local store to talk to a Kure associate.

Question 5

How Do You Fix a Burnt Taste in a Vape?

Accepted Answer

When you take a hit, let the vape rest for a few minutes after. Do not take another hit

immediately because there will not be enough time for the cotton to soak again. By taking an

immediate hit, you risk completely burning the cotton, and that might result in you continuing to

get a burnt taste, even once it re-saturates.

Allow it to sit for a few minutes to absorb more of the liquid and make it less likely to burn. With disposable devices, you may find that the device has reached the end of its usable lifespan. If the cotton is burnt, then the vape pen may no longer be usable. If that is the case, stop by your local store, and

a Kure associate can help you pick out a new one.

Question 6

What Are Some Coil-Friendly E-Juices?

Accepted Answer

The coil allows the device to function since it connects to the base of your system with the

battery. You can find the coil near the top of your vape device in the atomizer. It is close to

where you put the juice in the device. This means that the gunk can build up and eventually

create an unpleasant taste. An e-juice that has less sugar in it can be better for the device. That

way, not as much sugar and gunk will build upon the device.

Question 7

Are Certain E-Juices Harsher on Coils?

Accepted Answer

Some e-juices can make your coils dirtier faster than others might. The ratio of the VG to PG

influences this. But it is not the only reason. Some types of e-liquids can create more gunk on the

coils depending on the flavor. There is often a relationship between the color or flavor of the

juice and the amount of residue that you get from it. This is because different ingredients are

used for different flavors, and some can leave more residues behind than others.

The ratio of VG to PG can also play a role. VG is stickier and a bit denser than PG. That means

that VG might leave some more residue behind. Some vapers find that PG offers a better flavor

but not as much vapor. So, you might not have to worry about getting residue in your tank if you

are more concerned about the flavor.

Question 8

Why Does My Tank Leak?

Accepted Answer

A common cause of this issue might be not filling the tank correctly. When filling it, you should

try not to get any of the liquid in the chimney. This is the tube that goes through the tank’s

middle to your mouthpiece. If you spill liquid in your chimney, it can cause the tank to leak.

A damaged O-ring might also be an issue. This is the rubber ring that you can find at the tank’s

bottom and top. These might get damaged or ripped, preventing an air seal. That can cause the

juice to leak out. To replace them, just order a new one, take the tank apart, and put the new rings

in.

If you transport or store the device horizontally, the tank might leak. If the tank is on its side for

a while, the juice can leak from the airflow holes. Consider leaving the pen in an upright position

instead.

Question 9

Why Has My Vape Oil Gone Brown?

Accepted Answer

Many times, certain ingredients in the vape oil cause it to turn brown. For instance, juices that

have more vegetable glycerin in them are sweeter and have more sugar in them, which can cause

the liquid to caramelize faster and turn brown. This can also stain any liquid that you add in the

future. You might want to get a liquid with propylene glycol, which might not caramelize as

quickly.

In other cases, the liquid can undergo oxidization, which happens when the nicotine gets exposed

to the oxygen in the air. The chemical reaction is what causes your liquid to become darker.

When the liquid is exposed to heat and light, it can cause the nicotine to change in color, as well.

Nicotine is a highly reactive substance, so even if you keep it in a dark, cool area, the process

will not stop completely. However, it might help slow down the process a bit.

Question 10

What Is a Good Starter Kit?

Accepted Answer

Many times, starter kits have a base unit, which is what powers your device and has its controls.

A kit usually also comes with a tank, extra coils, and tips for how to use the kit.

When you are beginning to vape, you may not know what your preferences will be. Some people

enjoy taking deep lung hits, while others prefer a mouth to lung hit. Since you do not know your

preferences, consider looking for a system that will give you more flexibility as you go on. Many

starter kits are designed to last for a while.

Look for kits that are easy to use, and see if the design is flexible. For instance, can you adjust

the amount of power in the coils? Consider reading the product reviews to see what other vapers

think of the system. You also can stop by your local store to have a Kure associate walk you

through your options.
