Flavor isn’t just about the e-liquid recipe. Coil resistance and PG/VG ratios play a huge role in how your vape tastes and feels. Understanding this relationship helps you dial in the perfect setup without the guesswork.

1. Coil Resistance: Heat and Vapor in Balance

Resistance, measured in ohms (Ω), is how much the coil restricts the battery’s current.

  • Low resistance (<0.5Ω): Heats up faster, runs hotter, creates bigger clouds and a warmer, more intense vape — ideal for direct-to-lung (DTL) style.

  • High resistance (>1.0Ω): Heats more slowly, runs cooler, produces smaller but denser vapor and a smoother draw — perfect for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping.

2. E-Liquid Ratios: PG/VG Set the Feel

Most e-liquids are a mix of propylene glycol (PG) and vegetable glycerin (VG). Different ratios deliver different sensations:

  • High VG (70VG+): Bigger, denser clouds and a silky mouthfeel — pairs well with low-resistance coils.

  • High PG (50PG+): Sharper throat hit and brighter flavor — pairs well with higher-resistance coils.

You can also tweak your experience by adding flavor boosters like cooling agents, sour notes, sweeteners or “sparkling” effects to create unique layers in the same base liquid.

3. Matching Resistance and Ratios

  • Low resistance + high VG = large clouds and richer sweetness

  • High resistance + high PG = stronger throat hit and sharper flavor

  • Mixing different flavor boosters = personalized taste profiles

4. Wrapping It Up

Think of coil resistance and e-liquid ratios as your flavor equalizer. Once you understand how they interact, you can easily fine-tune your vape for maximum enjoyment.

If you’re looking for an even easier way to explore custom blends without changing devices, consider a dual-tank system. For example, Modex lets you fill its main and auxiliary tanks with different e-liquids, control each one independently, and refill them multiple times without losing flavor quality — making personalized mixing simple, stable and fun.
