Step-by-Step Guide to Perfect Strawberry Ice Vaping
Step 1: Choose the right device – strawberry ice performs best in pod systems with 1.0-1.2ohm coils for balanced flavor and vapor production.
Step 2: Prime your coil properly – The fruity notes are delicate and can burn if the wick isn’t fully saturated.
Step 3: Start at lower wattage (10-15W) and gradually increase to find your sweet spot.
Step 4: Store your strawberry ice e-liquid in a cool, dark place to preserve flavor integrity.
Step 5: Clean your tank regularly to prevent flavor mixing that can mute the strawberry notes.
