So, you’re well-acquainted with disposable vapes by now: you’ve probably sampled the best from Geekvape, IVG, Pod Salt Go, or Elf Bar.

But maybe you’re now looking for a more intense flavour experience and bigger clouds. Perhaps you’re trying to reduce your waste, or want to find a more cost-effective way to keep vaping instead of buying new vapes every few weeks.

If this sounds like you, we’ve got you covered. In this blog post, we’ll be explaining why trying nic salts is a great next step after disposable vapes. We’ll list some of the best nicotine salts that you need to try, and at the end we’ll give some tips about the best vape kits to vape them with. Let’s get started by taking a closer look at nic salts.

What are nicotine salts?

There are two main types of e-liquid that vapers use.

Shortfills: these are nicotine-free e-liquids that a vaper will often mix with a freebase nicotine shot. Freebase nicotine is a strong form of nicotine created from the compound nicotine salt which is found in tobacco leaves.

Nicotine salts: these vape juices contain the nicotine salt which is found in tobacco leaves in its original form. While nicotine salts are not as strong as freebase nicotine, they are more rapidly absorbed into the body, meaning that vapers can get a faster nicotine hit.

Nic salts are a relatively new addition to the vaping world, but they’re already favoured by many vapers who use pod kits and a mouth to lung vape style (the same way that you vape a disposable e-cigarette).

Why choose nic salts?

There are a number of reasons that nicotine salts have become highly popular with vapers since they were first introduced a few years ago.

Better nicotine absorption

Nic salt e-liquid is popular among ex-smokers because nic salts provide super fast nicotine hits. With rapid nicotine absorption in just a few seconds after taking a puff, nic salts are perfect for satisfying cravings quickly and effectively.

Plus, because of the almost instant satisfaction achieved from vaping nicotine salt e-liquid, vapers find that they don’t have to vape as often to get the nicotine content they need.

In contrast, freebase nicotine takes longer to absorb and therefore is less effective at satisfying cravings.

Milder throat hit 

Because nicotine salts have benzoic acid or citric acid in them, this neutralises the alkaline e-liquid. As a result, the lower pH means that nic salts provide a milder and more pleasant throat hit than freebase nicotine.

Because of the more pleasant throat hit, it’s easier for vapers to consume even high-nicotine e-liquids more frequently. This makes salt nicotine appealing to many vape enthusiasts and former smokers who want to vape frequently more comfortably.

Easier to use 

Another reason that we love nic salts is that they’re incredibly easy to use. E-liquid shortfills can be confusing: you have to figure out how many nicotine shots to add to the vape juice to get your desired nicotine strength.

With nic salts, no calculations are necessary because the nicotine e-liquid is pre-mixed. You just have to choose your nicotine strength, which usually is in 5mg, 10mg, or 20mg strengths in 10ml nic salts.

Tempted by any of these amazing salt nic e-liquid flavours? The next step is to choose a vape kit to get the best flavours from them.

For nic salt e-liquid, the best vape kits are smaller devices which allow the vape to deliver nicotine at a better rate. Pod systems are a good choice for use with salt nic e-liquids, and so are other smaller MTL vaping devices.

It also features an e-liquid window so that you can see the exact amount of e-liquid left in the pod, giving you more control over refilling.
