What are Ohm Brew 50/50 Nic Salts?
Nicotine salts, commonly referred to as nic salts, are a form of nicotine that is produced to resemble the way nicotine naturally occurs in the tobacco leaf. Many people feel that nic salts provide a more authentic ‘hit’ than other e-liquids, because they are absorbed into the bloodstream more quickly. For this reason, nic salts are ideal for people who are looking to use vaping as a way to give up smoking, as the quick nicotine hit feels more familiar.
For a more in depth look at nic salts and how they work, check out our other posts What are nic salts? and Vaping advice: nic salts.
Ohm Brew 50/50 Nic Salts are e-liquids made with a balanced 50% PG (propylene glycol) and 50% VG (vegetable glycerin) ratio, ideal for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping. Ohm Brew 50/50 uses nic salts to produce a range that is available in multiple strengths, 3mg and 6mg for the lighter smokers, then 12mg and 18mg for heavier smokers. However, due to the way that nic salts are produced, the higher strength Ohm Brew 50/50 liquids will not come with the harsh throat hit that is usually associated with high strength freebase e-liquids. Instead, they remain as smooth as their lower content counterparts, with no compromise on flavour.
What is the difference between Ohm Brew 50/50 Nic Salts and other Ohm Brew e-liquids?
Ohm Brew offer an extensive e-liquid range, which not only includes nic salts and freebase e-liquids, but also different VG:PG ratios which are suitable for different types of vape kits. The big difference between Ohm Brew 50/50 Nic Salts and the Ohm Brew CORE range is the type of nicotine they use. Whereas, the difference between the 50/50 Nic Salts and their Badass Blends and Baltic Blends ranges is the ratio of the e-liquid, which refers to the percentage of vegetable glycerine and propylene glycol in the vape juice.
- Nicotine delivery: Nic salts offer a faster absorption rate into the bloodstream, making them ideal for vapers seeking quicker satisfaction. Freebase nicotine like that used in the Ohm Brew CORE range delivers nicotine more gradually and can be harsher on the throat at higher concentrations.
- Smaller clouds: A 50% PG 50% VG ratio allows for the user to vape a juice with maximum flavour, without exhaling huge clouds that many people may find to be an unappealing result of vaping.
- Throat hit: Ohm Brew 50/50 Nic Salts offer a much smoother vaping experience, even at higher nicotine strengths, while freebase nicotine e-liquids tend to have a stronger throat hit.
- Device compatibility: 50/50 e-liquids like the Ohm Brew 50/50 Nic Salts are best used with low-powered devices like starter kits and pod systems, whereas high VG e-liquids like the Badass Blends and Baltic Blends ranges can be used with sub-ohm kits and high-wattage devices.
- Nicotine strength options: Nic salts generally come in a wide range of nicotine strengths, while the high VG Ohm Brew e-liquids come in short fill bottles which are sold without nicotine. Although nicotine can be added to these short fills using nicotine shots, they are only designed to be mixed to a 3 mg/ml nicotine strength, a 6 mg/ml at most.
When should I choose nic salts over other e-liquids?
Choosing nic salts over e-liquids really comes down to the kind of vaping experience you prefer. Here are the kind of factors you might want to think about:
- Higher nicotine strengths: If you're a heavy smoker looking to quit, nic salts offer a faster nicotine fix and allow for higher nicotine strengths without the harshness normally associated with other freebase e-liquids.
- Smoother throat hit: Likewise, if you find traditional e-liquids too harsh on your throat, nic salts are a great alternative for a smoother experience, especially at higher nicotine levels.
- Discreet vaping: Nic salts are ideal for those using smaller, more discreet devices like pod systems. These devices work well with the higher nicotine strengths in nic salts and tend not to put out large vapour clouds.
- Speedy satisfaction: Nic salts are absorbed more quickly than e-liquids containing freebase nicotine, making them a better option if you want a fast and satisfying nicotine hit.
On the other hand, if you prefer sub-ohm vaping, larger vapour production, or lower nicotine levels, then you may be better off considering a different type of e-liquid.
