In this post, we’ll explain why salt-based e-liquids are smoother on the throat compared to freebase e-liquids. We will explore how these e-liquids allow for easier vaping at higher nicotine levels, addressing a common question among new vapers.
What Are Salt Nics Made from?
Nicotine salts e-liquids are standard vape juices that have added an acid–benzoic acid this makes them smooth. This reduces the pH of the liquid, converting nicotine in the liquid from a free base into a salt. The second advantage of nicotine salt e-liquid is that it provides a higher level of satisfaction without the need for consuming large amounts of vape juice daily. Nicotine salt e-liquid is smoother when the nicotine concentration is higher, so this allows for a satisfying, pleasant vaping experience, even when using a smaller, lower-output vape system like a pod system.
Nic salts are lower in alkalinity because of benzoic acid, giving you reportedly smoother throat hits and making vaping at 20 mg of nicotine tolerable. This is because of the benzoic acid added to the salt nicotine, since the nicotine becomes a lot easier and more potent to deliver compared to the traditionally free base vape liquid. While unpaired nicotine salts are naturally high in pH (acidic) and therefore create vapours that are harsh to inhale, the benzoic acid lowers the pH of nicotine salts, yet still provides large amounts of nicotine.
You may know from experience that raising nicotine levels in free-base vape juices can lead to peppery flavours, and that the higher you go, the worse they become – salt nic juices get around this. Vapers with sensitive throats often love nicotine salts juices for being the best way to vape without irritating them.
Which Vape Kits Can Salts Be Used In?
Nicotine salt e-liquids may be more effective in helping you manage your cravings compared with conventional vape juices. Higher nicotine strengths used in higher-wattage devices are more likely to overload you with too much nicotine, so we recommend that you should avoid using higher-strength nicotine salt e-juices in higher-wattage, sub-ohm devices. Using sub ohms to vape nicotine salts at a level of 20mg nic will provide you with an excess amount of nicotine and would be quite unpleasant.
We have already talked about an advantage nic salts offer, the smoother hits allow for higher concentrations of nicotine. What this means is you can comfortably vape higher nicotine levels like 20mg, as well as making it easier for your body to absorb the nicotine, which is the opposite of freebase nicotine’s nature.
Nicotine salts are found in the leaves of the tobacco plant, and are used instead of conventional, free-base nicotine in order to deliver a smoother nicotine hit while vaping. Nic salt juices are able to deliver higher-strength nicotine without becoming too sharp in your throat, and are absorbed more readily in your bloodstream compared to e-juices that are not made with nicotine salt. Since salt does not require vaping at higher temperatures, use nicotine salts in any mouth-to-lung (MTL) or restricted-direct-to-lung (RDL) devices such as the Vaporesso XROS Mini pod kits or the Aspire Minican pods.
Which Salts Are Available To Buy?
Nicotine salt e-juice is not made with tobacco leaves, but instead has a cleaner flavor and higher dosage of nicotine, making it ideal for refilling pod mods and mouth-to-lung vaping. In fact, salt-based ejuice allows you to start vaping at higher nicotine levels, all while imitating the full cigarette-like experience. Nicotine salts have become so popular that many of the most well-known vape juice brands around the world are now selling salt versions of their best-loved e-juices. There is an enormous range of salt brands on the market.

Summary
So how are nicotine salts less harsh to vape at higher nicotine levels than freebase juices? Due to the differing alkalinity levels causing less of an impact on the throat when vaped with MTL or RDL kits.
