Double Brew Strawberry Kiwi Nic Salts 10ml 20mg Overview

Double Brew Nic Salts Strawberry Kiwi is a 10ml bottle of nicotine salt e-liquid at 20mg/ml (2%), made for refillable pod kits and other low-wattage, higher-resistance vaping devices. The flavour is a plain, easy-to-read fruit pairing: ripe strawberry sweetness first, with a slightly tart kiwi note running underneath. It belongs to the Double Brew range, and the liquid arrives at its final strength, so there are no nicotine shots to add and no dilution to work out.

This guide is written for UK adults who already smoke or vape and want a clear, realistic picture before they order. Where we do not hold a verified figure, such as the exact VG/PG split or the precise batch date, we say so and point you to the bottle label rather than inventing a number and presenting it as fact. Everything below is based on how nicotine salt liquids of this type normally behave, plus the product details in the listing.

Key facts at a glance

• Product type: nicotine salt e-liquid. It is not a disposable and it is not a device.
• Bottle size: 10ml, which is the largest bottle size allowed for nicotine e-liquid sold in the UK.
• Nicotine strength: 20mg/ml, which is the maximum strength UK rules permit for nicotine e-liquid.
• Flavour: strawberry and kiwi. The name does not mention menthol or ice, so do not expect a cooling effect.
• Suited to: refillable pod systems, mouth-to-lung (MTL) devices and coils designed for nic salts.
• Not suited to: high-wattage sub-ohm tanks, which are built for low-strength freebase liquids.

The 10ml and 20mg limits come from UK law and apply to every nicotine e-liquid on the market, so you will see them on bottles from every brand. Since June 2025 the sale of single-use disposable vapes has also been banned across the UK, which makes refillable setups with bottles like this one the normal route for adults who want a pocket-sized vape. You must be 18 or over to buy, and this product contains nicotine, which is addictive. If you do not currently smoke or vape, it is not a product for you.

Vapour, Throat Hit and Puff Delivery

A 10ml bottle is a refill rather than a ready-to-use device, so puff count depends on what you put it in. As a rough guide, a 2ml pod of 20mg nic salt at ordinary pod-kit settings gives most people somewhere between 500 and 800 puffs, which puts a full 10ml bottle in the region of 2,500 to 4,000 puffs. Treat that as an estimate, not a promise. Puff length, how often you vape, airflow setting and coil condition can each move the number by a long way.

Nic salts are formulated differently from freebase nicotine. The nicotine is bound to an organic acid, commonly benzoic acid, which lowers the pH of the liquid and takes the harshness out of high strengths. That is why 20mg in a salt feels noticeably softer than 20mg of freebase would, and why salts have become the usual choice for small, low-power devices. Some studies also suggest salts deliver nicotine to the bloodstream a little faster than freebase at the same concentration, which is one reason many people who are switching away from cigarettes find them satisfying at low wattage.

What to expect from Double Brew Strawberry Kiwi at 20mg

• Throat hit: a gentle-to-moderate tickle at the back of the throat rather than the sharp catch you would get from freebase at the same strength.
• Vapour volume: modest. Salt liquids are designed to wick well in small coils, not to produce large clouds.
• Satisfaction per puff: relatively high, so many users take fewer and shorter puffs than they would with a 3mg or 6mg freebase.
• Consistency: flavour and strength should stay steady from the first fill to the last drop in the bottle, provided the coil is in good condition and the liquid is stored properly.

Pace matters with a strength this high. If you are new to 20mg salts, start with a few short draws and wait a few minutes before deciding whether you need more. Chain vaping on a high-strength salt is the quickest way to feel lightheaded or nauseous, and it also burns through liquid far faster than you would expect. Slow, deliberate draws of two to three seconds, taken much as you would draw on a cigarette, suit this style of vaping well.

Strawberry Kiwi Flavour Profile

Strawberry and kiwi is a long-standing fruit pairing in e-liquid because the two flavours do different jobs. Strawberry supplies the sweet, rounded body. Kiwi supplies the slightly sharp, green acidity that stops the sweetness from turning flat. When a blend like this is balanced, you taste both rather than one masking the other. Flavour perception is personal, so treat the notes below as a description of what this combination typically delivers rather than a guarantee.

• Inhale: sweet red strawberry, closer to a ripe berry than to sweets or jam, with a light fruity aroma coming off the vapour.
• Mid-draw: the kiwi comes through as a tangy, juicy note that cuts across the sweetness.
• Exhale: a soft, sweet finish with a little residual tartness. Because the name does not mention ice or menthol, there should be no cooling sensation on the exhale.
• Aftertaste: mild and fruity. It should fade within a minute or so and not coat the mouth.

Sweetness is the main thing to think about. Fruit liquids are usually sweetened, and sweeteners are the main reason coils darken faster with fruity e-liquids than with tobacco or unsweetened flavours. If you find the taste dulling after a few days, that is usually coil residue rather than the liquid going off, and a fresh coil or pod fixes it in most cases.

Flavour also shifts with how you vape. At lower wattage the strawberry leads and the kiwi sits further back. Turn the power up a little, within your device's recommended range, and the kiwi becomes sharper and the vapour warmer. Tighter airflow concentrates flavour, while more open airflow gives a lighter, airier fruit taste. It is worth trying a couple of settings across the first few millilitres before you decide whether the profile suits you.

If you want a fruit flavour with a pronounced cooling finish, this is not it, and you would be better looking at a flavour with ice or menthol in the name. If you prefer sharper, more sour fruit, expect this to sit on the gentler side. For smokers moving across from cigarettes, a mild, sweet fruit flavour is often easier to settle into than something intensely sour or menthol-heavy, but that is a generalisation, and plenty of people prefer the opposite.

Bottle Design, Packaging and Storage

Because this is an e-liquid, build quality comes down to the bottle, closure and labelling rather than a casing or circuit board. Nicotine e-liquid sold in the UK has to meet specific packaging rules, and a 10ml bottle should show all of the following when it arrives.

• Child-resistant closure: a cap that needs a press-and-turn or squeeze-and-turn action to open.
• Tamper-evident seal: a ring or sleeve that breaks when the bottle is first opened. If it is already broken on delivery, do not use the bottle and contact the shop.
• Narrow tip: a long, thin nozzle designed to fit into pod fill ports without spills.
• Label information: nicotine strength, ingredients, a health warning, batch details and supplier contact information.

The bottle is flexible plastic, which lets you squeeze gently to control the flow. Squeeze slowly and in short bursts. Squeezing hard on a 10ml bottle with a narrow tip pushes liquid out in a rush and is the most common reason for overfilling and leaks. Keep the cap on tight between fills and wipe the nozzle with a tissue if a drop collects on the outside.

Storage and shelf life. Keep the bottle upright, in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight, radiators and cars in summer. Nic salts darken with age and exposure to light and air. A change from clear or pale yellow to amber is a normal oxidation effect and usually does not change the flavour much, but a bottle that has darkened to a deep brown or smells off should not be used. Check the label for the date guidance. Keep every bottle out of reach of children and pets: nicotine liquid is toxic if swallowed or absorbed through the skin, and a spill should be wiped up with gloves or a cloth, then the area washed with soap and water.

Recycling. Empty the bottle fully before you dispose of it. Councils differ on whether they take e-liquid bottles in kerbside recycling, so check yours first; if they do not, a household waste recycling centre can usually accept them. Never pour leftover e-liquid down a drain. Take it to a recycling centre or ask your council how to handle it safely.

Devices, Battery and Charging

The liquid itself has no battery, so there is nothing in the bottle to charge. What matters is the device you use it with. Double Brew Strawberry Kiwi is intended for refillable pod kits and similar devices, and the battery in that kit decides how long you can vape between charges.

Battery sizes and what they mean. Slim pod kits often carry batteries of around 400 to 700mAh, while larger pod mods commonly go to 1,000mAh or more. A 500mAh battery is enough for a day of light to moderate use for many people, while heavier use or a higher-wattage setting calls for a larger battery or a spare device. Battery drain is driven mainly by wattage and puff frequency, so a 20mg salt, which is satisfying at low power, is easy on the battery compared with sub-ohm vaping.

Charging safely

• Use the cable supplied with the device or a reputable replacement, and a standard 5V USB adapter or computer port.
• Do not charge under a pillow, on a sofa cushion or anywhere that traps heat. Charge on a hard, non-flammable surface.
• Avoid leaving a device charging overnight or unattended.
• Stop using any device that swells, leaks, overheats or has a dented or split casing.
• Do not carry loose batteries in a pocket with keys or coins.

Disposables and the UK rules. The sale of single-use disposable vapes has been prohibited in the UK since 1 June 2025, which means a bottle plus a rechargeable kit is the route that remains open to most adults who want a small vape. The 20mg/ml limit applies to every nicotine e-liquid and pod, refillable or not, so a 20mg bottle in your pod kit is the same strength a 20mg disposable would have been.

Recycling devices and batteries. Vape devices contain lithium-ion batteries and must never go in household bins or kerbside recycling, where they can start fires in collection vehicles. Under UK waste electrical rules, retailers that sell vapes are generally required to offer take-back of used devices, and many supermarkets, household waste recycling centres and electrical retailers also have drop-off points for small electricals and batteries. Tape over the exposed terminals on loose batteries before dropping them off.

Coil and Mesh Pairing for Nic Salts

The coil is the heating element in your pod or tank, and matching it to a nic salt liquid is the single biggest factor in how this bottle tastes and feels. Nicotine salt liquids work well with coils in the range of roughly 0.6 to 1.2 ohms, run at about 8 to 25 watts, depending on the device. Always follow the wattage range printed on the coil or pod, because that range is set by the manufacturer for that specific coil.

• Standard wire coils: simple, widely available and fine at low power. They deliver good flavour for the price but may produce slightly less even heat than mesh.
• Mesh coils: a flat sheet of woven metal with a larger surface area. They heat more evenly, tend to give stronger flavour and warm up quickly, but use a bit more liquid and battery. Many current pod systems use mesh for that reason.
• Ceramic coils: found in some closed pods. They are designed for a clean taste and long life but are generally not user replaceable.

Why sub-ohm tanks are a poor match. Sub-ohm coils (below 1.0 ohm, often 0.15 to 0.4) run at 40 to 100 watts and move a large volume of liquid. Putting 20mg salt in a device like that delivers a large quantity of nicotine per puff, which can cause nausea, dizziness and headaches, and it empties the bottle in a day or so. If you want bigger clouds, choose a lower-strength freebase or shortfill instead.

Priming and coil life. A new coil needs to soak before use. Fill the pod, wait five to ten minutes so liquid fully saturates the cotton, and take your first few puffs gently at the lowest power setting. Skipping this step is the usual cause of dry hits and a burnt first taste. A fruit-flavoured, sweetened liquid like this one typically shortens coil life, so expect to change the coil or pod roughly every one to two weeks of regular use, sooner if you vape heavily. The signs are a muted flavour, a faint burnt note, a darker coil and a gurgling noise.

Wire and mesh coils both dislike being run dry. Keep the tank above the lowest fill line and do not keep pressing the fire button when the vapour feels thin; that is the coil telling you it needs liquid or replacing.

Nicotine Strength Guidance: Is 20mg Right for You?

The 20mg on the label means 20 milligrams of nicotine per millilitre of liquid, or 2%. In a 10ml bottle that is 200mg of nicotine in total. It is the highest strength allowed in the UK, and it is a strong liquid, especially in a salt formulation where the nicotine is absorbed efficiently and feels smooth enough to take in quickly. Choosing the right strength matters more than choosing the right flavour.

The ranges below are general guides used across the vaping industry. They are not medical advice, and individual response varies with body weight, how deeply you inhale and how fast you vape.

• Around 20 or more cigarettes a day: many people start at 20mg salt in a low-power pod device.
• Around 10 to 20 cigarettes a day: 12mg to 20mg is a common starting range, and 20mg works for plenty of people in this group, particularly with a restricted draw.
• Fewer than 10 cigarettes a day, or social smokers: 10mg or below is usually enough. 20mg is likely to feel too strong.
• Current vapers on freebase 3mg to 6mg in sub-ohm tanks: do not simply pour 20mg salt into the same tank. Change to a pod-style device at the same time.

Signs the strength is too high. Lightheadedness, nausea, a racing heart, headache, sweating or a harsh burning in the throat all suggest too much nicotine. Stop vaping, sit down, sip water and get some fresh air. If symptoms are severe or do not pass, seek medical help. Next time, go down a strength or take fewer puffs.

Signs the strength is too low. Cravings returning within a short time, taking very frequent puffs, or reaching for cigarettes in between are signs that the strength may not be enough. If you are on 10mg and still smoking, moving up to 20mg may help. If you are on 20mg and still getting cravings, speak to your local stop smoking service about combining vaping with other support.

Over time many people step the strength down gradually. If your goal is to stop nicotine altogether, the NHS stop smoking services across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland can provide free advice and behavioural support. This product is not a licensed medicine and is not a smoking cessation treatment.

Who This E-Liquid Suits, and Who Should Skip It

Being straightforward about this matters more than closing a sale. Nicotine is addictive, and a 20mg salt is a strong product, so it only makes sense for a fairly specific group of adults.

Who it suits

• Adult smokers moving to vaping who smoke ten or more cigarettes a day and want a nicotine hit that feels familiar at low power.
• Existing pod-kit users who already use salts and want a straightforward fruit flavour at the top legal strength.
• People who like a mouth-to-lung draw, where you pull vapour into the mouth first and inhale second, much like smoking.
• Anyone who wants a simple, ready-mixed bottle with no shots, no steeping and no maths.

Who should think twice or skip it

• Anyone under 18. It is illegal to sell nicotine vaping products to under-18s, and buying them on someone else's behalf is also an offence.
• Non-smokers and people who have never smoked. Vaping is intended as an alternative for adult smokers, not a starting point.
• Light or occasional smokers. 20mg is likely to be more nicotine than you need. Look for a lower strength.
• Pregnant or breastfeeding women, and anyone with a heart condition, high blood pressure, diabetes or a regular prescription. Talk to your GP, pharmacist or midwife before using any nicotine product.
• People who want big clouds. A salt in a pod kit will not give you that. A lower-strength freebase in a sub-ohm tank is the usual route.
• People who dislike sweet flavours. This is a sweet fruit profile. A tobacco or unsweetened flavour will suit you better.

If you are unsure which group you fall into, an honest starting point is to count how many cigarettes you smoke on a typical day. Fewer than ten usually points to a lower strength. Ten or more, and a salt at 12mg to 20mg is within normal range. If you are using vaping to stop smoking, NHS stop smoking services can help you set up a plan.

How to Fill, Prime and Use It

Always read your device manual first, because fill ports, airflow controls and pod designs differ. The steps below cover a typical refillable pod kit. A 10ml bottle will fill a standard 2ml pod around five times, since UK rules cap refillable tanks and pods at 2ml.

• Step 1, prepare: wash and dry your hands, switch the device off and rest it on a flat surface. Check that the bottle seal is intact before opening.
• Step 2, open the pod: remove the pod and open its fill port, usually a silicone plug on the side or top. Do not touch inside the port.
• Step 3, fill: press the bottle's narrow nozzle into the port and squeeze gently. Fill to just below the maximum line. Never cover or flood the central air tube.
• Step 4, close and wipe: reseat the plug, wipe any spill off the outside of the pod and the bottle, then fit the bottle cap fully.
• Step 5, prime: insert the pod and leave the device upright for five to ten minutes so the coil wicks completely.
• Step 6, first puffs: take two or three short, gentle draws to confirm that vapour is being produced before you take longer pulls.
• Step 7, vape: draw slowly for two to three seconds, mouth-to-lung, and hold the vapour in your mouth for a moment before inhaling. Leave a gap between puffs.
• Step 8, maintain: refill when the pod is about a third full, wipe the mouthpiece and contacts occasionally with a dry cloth, and replace the coil or pod when the flavour fades.

Good habits

• Do not vape on an empty or nearly empty pod. Dry coils burn and taste harsh.
• Keep the airflow open enough that the draw feels comfortable. Forcing a tight draw on a high-strength salt is tiring and uses liquid faster.
• Keep the device and bottle out of heat, direct sun and reach of children.
• Do not mix other brands or strengths in the same pod. If you want to change liquids, empty and rinse the pod first and let it dry.
• Do not add anything to the liquid, such as flavour drops or additional nicotine.

Most people settle into a comfortable routine within a day or two. If your first session feels too strong, reduce the number of puffs and open the airflow before you give up on the liquid altogether, since a small change in technique often makes a noticeable difference.

Troubleshooting Common Problems

Most problems with nic salt liquids come down to a handful of causes, almost all of which relate to the coil, the fill level or the strength rather than the liquid. Work through the list below before assuming something is wrong with the bottle.

• Leaking from the pod: usually overfilling, a plug that is not fully seated or a cracked pod. Empty the pod, check for damage, refill below the max line and reseat the plug firmly.
• Gurgling or spitting: too much liquid in the air path. Remove the pod, tap it gently on a tissue and blow lightly through the mouthpiece to clear the airway.
• Burnt or harsh taste: a dry hit from a coil that was not primed, a pod that is nearly empty, power set too high or a worn coil. Refill, prime for five to ten minutes and lower the power if you can adjust it. If the taste stays burnt, change the coil.
• Weak or muted flavour: usually a tired coil, or taste fatigue from vaping the same flavour all day. Try a fresh coil, and consider switching flavour for a day or two to reset your palate.
• Throat too harsh or you are coughing: the strength may be too high, the power too high or the draw too hard. Lower the power, open the airflow, take shorter puffs or move to a lower nicotine strength.
• Little or no vapour: check for a flat battery, a pod that is not seated properly, a blocked airflow slot or an empty tank. Clean the contacts with a dry cotton bud.
• Sticky device or e-liquid on your fingers: wipe spills promptly, wash hands and clean the contacts. Sweet liquids leave residue that can interfere with the connection.
• Liquid has darkened: a mild colour shift is normal oxidation. If it has turned very dark or smells or tastes odd, do not use it.
• Leaks in a pocket or bag: changes in air pressure and heat can push liquid out. Keep pods no more than three-quarters full when travelling and carry the device upright.
• Dizziness, nausea or a racing heart: too much nicotine. Stop, sit down, drink water and get fresh air. Use a lower strength next time.

If you have worked through these and the problem persists, or if the bottle arrived with a broken seal, a cracked body or a leaking cap, stop using it and contact customer services with your order number and a photo.

Value for Money and Running Costs

The fairest way to judge any e-liquid is cost per millilitre, then cost per day. Divide the price on the listing by 10 to get the cost per ml. As an illustration only, a bottle priced at 3.99 pounds works out at around 40p per ml. Always check the current price on the product page rather than relying on that example.

Daily consumption varies a great deal. Many pod users go through roughly 1 to 3ml of 20mg salt a day, and lighter users may use well under 1ml. At 2ml a day, a 10ml bottle lasts around five days. Coils or pods are an additional running cost, and with sweetened fruit liquids you may replace them every week or two, so factor that in when you compare setups.

Where the value comes from

• Strength per millilitre: 20mg gives you more nicotine in each ml than a 3mg or 6mg freebase, so a given amount of satisfaction needs fewer puffs and less liquid.
• Low-power efficiency: salts are designed for small coils at modest wattage, which stretches both battery life and liquid.
• Refill versus single-use: refilling a rechargeable kit is cheaper per puff than buying single-use products used to be, and creates far less waste.
• Compared with cigarettes: a 20-pack in the UK typically costs well over 14 pounds. Daily vaping costs for a pod user are generally a fraction of that, although the exact figure depends on your device, liquid and habits.

Where it costs more

• The 10ml bottle size limit means per-ml prices are usually higher than shortfill liquids sold in larger bottles. That is a legal limit, not a pricing choice.
• Heavy use, high wattage and sub-ohm devices will use the bottle up quickly and make it poor value.
• A cheap bottle is not always cheaper per day if a stronger or weaker nicotine level makes you vape more.

To get good value, match the strength to your habit, use the right coil and keep the liquid stored properly so you do not waste any. If you vape every day, buying several bottles at once, where multi-buy pricing is available, usually lowers the per-bottle cost, but only buy what you will use within a sensible time frame.

Honest Comparisons With Other Options

No single liquid suits everyone, and it is more useful to know where this one fits than to hear that it beats everything. Here is a straight comparison with the alternatives you are most likely to be weighing up.

• Versus the same flavour at 10mg: 10mg is smoother and gentler and suits lighter smokers. 20mg is more satisfying for heavier smokers but too strong for many people. Pick based on how much you smoked, not on which sounds stronger.
• Versus freebase liquids in sub-ohm tanks: freebase at 3mg to 6mg produces far more vapour and a warmer, bigger flavour, but with a sharper throat hit and heavier liquid use. It does not feel like a cigarette, and it is a different style of vaping altogether. A salt in a pod kit is smaller, quieter and closer to smoking.
• Versus shortfills with nicotine shots: shortfills are cheaper per ml and come in large bottles, but you have to mix in shots, and the final strength is capped at a low level. Salts are ready to use, which suits people who want zero fuss.
• Versus single-use disposables: the sale of disposables is now banned in the UK. Refillable kits with bottles like this one cost less per puff and produce less waste, but they take a few minutes of setup and need charging and coil changes.
• Versus larger established nic salt ranges: brands with long product lines, such as IVG Salts, Nasty Salts or Elfliq, usually list many more flavours and a wider spread of strengths. Double Brew is a narrower proposition. If you like strawberry and kiwi and want a straightforward bottle at 20mg, it does the job. If you want a big menu to explore, a larger range may suit you better. Fruit flavour quality is subjective, and we would not claim this tastes better than those ranges.
• Versus nicotine pouches and NRT: these have no vapour and no inhalation, and licensed nicotine replacement products are formally recommended for stopping smoking. Vaping offers hand-to-mouth habit replacement and flavour, but is not a medicine.

Our summary. This is a sensible choice if you are an adult smoker using a pod kit who likes sweet fruit, wants the top legal strength and wants minimal fuss. It is the wrong choice for light smokers, sub-ohm users, anyone after cooling or sour flavours, and anyone who does not already use nicotine.
