Honestly a bit trial and error. I was on Marlboro Lights and started on 18mg, which I think is where most start. I have moved down to 12 and aim to move to 6 soon
Also down to what battery & tank you have.
If you have good ones that you cannot put down then it is easy to go through a lot of juice.
If you are going through a lot it is best to go fairly low.
I am down to 6mg but vape about 10ml in 3 days.
Ingredients:-
Nicotine (unless zero nic)
Glycerol (vegetable glycerin (VG) - plain 'cough syrup')
Propylene Glycol (PG)
Flavourings (natural & artificial - some use alcohol, I try to avoid)
VG gives 'vapour', PG gives 'throat hit' (with the nicotine).
The nicotine and flavourings are mixed in VG or PG base (normally).
If you are getting burnt taste you are 'dry hitting' your coil wick. This can be caused by coil design (top or bottom). If you run a heavy VG mix it is thicker and harder/slower to wick. General is 20~30% VG, if you run higher you can dry hit (again depends on coil set-up etc.)
Eventually you do need to change coils as they will taste burnt - depends on coil, use, juice, power being used etc. etc.
Is it safe - who knows? Anecdote I have heard from someone in a smoke shelter:-
Smoker puffing away - "Vaping - you don't know what crap your putting in to your body with that!"
Vaper - "That's right - but I know what CRAP your putting in with THAT!!"
