Anyone who considers themselves to be a knowledgeable
vaper has some familiarity with temperature control, and the way in which it
can impact flavor. Still, those who are
newer to the vaping scene may not realize what they are missing by ignoring the
temperature control function of many of today’s most popular devices. Temperature control is an entirely new output
adjustment system that offers, in short, more control over many aspects of
one’s vaping experience, and perhaps the most notable impact is on flavor,
which is what so many of us value above all else when we vape.
What is Temperature Control?
Temperature control is a function of most modern vaping devices, acting as an
alternative to wattage-based vaping which is the default output function on
almost any mod. Temperature control is
easily selected from the display menu, and from there, the user can adjust the
temperature, usually in precise increments, as long as they are using a coil
type compatible with this vaping method, which is either nickel, titanium or
stainless steel.
The temperature at which you set your device ensures
that the coil within your tank or cartridge heats up to the exact same
temperature whenever you fire it. What
this does is keep your vaping session far more consistent, as each hit is
almost definitely going to be the same as the last. Also, it allows for more control over the
quality of your vapes, as it allows you to make more precise and intricate
adjustments to your overall output.
Not all vaping devices have a temperature control
option, and so the only way to experience this style of vaping is to select a
device that does. Whether or not a
device uses temperature control is easy to determine as it will be stated in
the manufacturer’s description. Note
that temperature control is often abbreviated to “TC,” so if you see this term
in the name of the mod, you know that it has this capability.
One final thing to note is that TC vaping is
considered to be more advanced than wattage-based vaping. This is because it requires a more intricate
style of output adjustment that can have a big impact on your vaping
experience, and so you must have basic understanding of the effects of
different temperatures. Additionally, it
requires more care when selecting a coil, as resistance levels and coil
materials must be perfectly compatible with the temperature at which your mod
is set.
The Impact of Temperature Control on Flavor
Like we said, temperature control has a major impact
on flavor. This is because different
flavor notes in your e-liquid
are activated at different temperatures.
Basically, some temperatures can bring out the richness of a flavor,
while others can bring out the freshness of a particular flavor note, such as a
fruit. Some temperatures allow for a
more complex flavor experience, and some meld the flavor notes together more so
that the overall impact is more subtle.
Temperature control offers a specific range of exact
temperatures that we can work our way through until we find our flavor sweet
spot. Each range of temperatures offers
specific impacts on flavor that are worth exploring while you search for that
perfect flavor experience.
390 to 420 Degrees
390 to 420 degrees is the most preferred range for
vaping. That’s because it can provide a
generous amount of vapor that’s never too warm and is smooth enough to not be
harsh on the inhale. Meanwhile, it
delivers a complex flavor profile that is never too overwhelming to the taste
buds, with most e-liquids presenting their full nuance to the palate.
420 to 450 Degrees
Vaping at 420 to 450 degrees will yield slightly
warmer vapor and provide even thicker clouds.
The vapor won’t be as smooth, but it’s still not likely to result in a
lot of harshness compared to higher temperature settings. Meanwhile, it will make your e-liquid taste
richer and bolder, and you may lose some of the fresher notes and a bit of the
complexity, but the general flavor impact will be more pronounced.
450 to 490 Degrees
Vaping at 450 to 490 degrees gives you extremely thick
and large clouds, although at this temperature the clouds may be a bit harsh
for those who are particularly sensitive.
The vapor will also be very warm, and in fact it can be too warm for
some. The flavor will be extremely
powerful but keep in mind that some e-liquids may develop a burnt taste at this
temperature range, because the flavoring ingredients were not developed to
handle exposure to this level of heat.
This is where you will need some trial and error to figure out which
vape juices really come alive, and which ones simply can’t withstand such high
temps.
