Ohm Brew Badass Blend Strawberry Chew at a glance

Ohm Brew Badass Blend Strawberry Chew is a 50ml shortfill e-liquid built around a soft, sweet strawberry chew profile. It arrives as 50ml of nicotine-free liquid in a 60ml bottle, which leaves headroom for one 10ml nicotine shot if you want to add nicotine yourself. That makes it a mix-it-yourself product for people who vape on refillable sub-ohm tanks, pod mods and similar open-system kit, rather than a ready-to-vape liquid with nicotine already inside.

The flavour sits in the sweet fruit and candy category. Think of a strawberry chewy sweet rather than a fresh-picked berry: rounded, sugary, a little tangy at the edges, with a soft finish that does not turn sharp or bitter. If you already enjoy strawberry candy, fruit chew flavours or sweet berry blends, this is the part of the market it belongs to.

Here is the short version of what you are buying:

• Product: Ohm Brew Badass Blend, Strawberry Chew flavour
• Format: 50ml shortfill supplied in a 60ml bottle, nicotine-free at 0mg/ml
• Nicotine: leave it at 0mg, or add one 10ml nicotine shot for roughly 3mg/ml
• Base: a high-VG blend, which is the norm for the Ohm Brew range; check the label on your bottle for the exact VG/PG ratio
• Best suited to: sub-ohm tanks, mesh coils and mid-power refillable kits
• Age: 18+ only, as with every vaping product sold in the UK

The rest of this guide covers flavour, vapour delivery, bottle design, nicotine maths, coil choices, battery and charging considerations for the device you pair it with, who the liquid suits, how to mix it, troubleshooting, value for money and honest comparisons. It is written for UK vapers and refers to UK rules where they matter, including the 20mg/ml nicotine cap and the 10ml limit on bottles that contain nicotine.

Flavour profile: what Strawberry Chew actually tastes like

The name tells you most of what you need to know. Strawberry Chew is aiming for the taste of a strawberry flavoured chewy sweet: sugary, slightly fruity, slightly creamy in texture and rounded rather than sharp. It is not a tart fresh strawberry, and it is not a cold menthol-style ice blend. If you want crisp, juicy, slightly sour fruit, a different profile will suit you better. If you want something that tastes like a sweet from the corner shop, you are in the right place.

Across a tank you can expect the flavour to unfold in three stages.

• On the inhale: a sweet strawberry note arrives first, closer to strawberry sweets than to the fruit itself. There is a gentle sugary lift that comes across as candy rather than syrup.
• Mid-draw: the chew character comes through. This is the soft, slightly doughy sweetness you associate with a fruit chew, and it is what stops the liquid from tasting like a plain strawberry juice.
• On the exhale: the finish is smooth and short. The strawberry lingers lightly on the tongue and the sweetness fades without leaving a harsh or chemical aftertaste.

Sweet flavours of this type are generally forgiving. They do not need to be vaped at very high wattage to taste of something, and they rarely become unpleasant when you vape them for a whole afternoon, though very sweet liquids can dull your sense of taste over a long session. If that happens, switching to water, or to a drier flavour for a short while, usually resets things.

One practical point on how flavour and nicotine interact. Sweet fruit liquids at 0mg taste fuller and slightly sweeter, because there is no nicotine bite in the way. When you add a nicotine shot the throat hit increases and the sweetness is a touch more reserved. Neither version is wrong; it comes down to whether you want a flavour-first experience or a more satisfying hit.

As with any shortfill, the character of the liquid improves slightly if you let it rest after mixing. A day of steeping, with the bottle stored upright and out of the light, tends to smooth the blend and bring the strawberry and chew notes closer together. If you are vaping it the same day, shake the bottle well and expect the sweetness to sit a little ahead of the fruit.

Performance and vapour delivery

Ohm Brew shortfills are formulated as high-VG liquids, and that decision shapes how this bottle behaves in your tank. VG, or vegetable glycerine, produces the thicker, denser vapour that sub-ohm vapers look for, while PG, or propylene glycol, carries flavour and throat hit. A high-VG blend leans towards cloud and smoothness, which suits the soft character of Strawberry Chew. If your bottle label states a 70VG/30PG split, that is a very common balance for this sort of product, but always go by the label in your hand.

What that means in everyday use:

• Vapour volume: dense and visible, noticeably more than you would get from a 50/50 liquid on the same coil and wattage.
• Throat hit: mild at 0mg and gentle with a single 10ml shot at roughly 3mg/ml. Higher strengths made by adding two shots will be firmer, particularly on a tighter draw.
• Flavour intensity: good at moderate power. Sweet liquids do not need to be pushed hard, and running too hot can flatten the strawberry note and bring out a toasted sweetness.
• Consistency: the liquid is thick enough that it wicks more slowly than a thin 50/50 juice, so coil choice and airflow matter more than they would with a thinner blend.

Because this is a 50ml bottle, how long it lasts depends entirely on your kit and habits. As a rough guide, a typical sub-ohm user working through between 3ml and 5ml a day will get roughly ten to sixteen days from the bottle. A lower-power mouth-to-lung pod user can stretch the same 50ml much further, while someone chasing big clouds on a high-wattage setup might go through it in a week. These are estimates, not promises, and the real figure depends on coil resistance, wattage and how often you vape.

Wicking is the thing to watch with any thick liquid. If the cotton cannot keep up, you will get a dry, hot or burnt taste. The fix is almost always to lower the wattage a little, open the airflow, or give the coil a few seconds to soak before the first draw. The troubleshooting section later in this guide covers these cases in detail.

Bottle, packaging and the shortfill format

Ohm Brew Badass Blend ships in a 60ml plastic bottle holding 50ml of liquid. The bottle is the usual soft, squeezable shortfill design with a narrow nozzle and a child-resistant, tamper-evident cap, which is a legal requirement for refill liquids in the UK. The nozzle is sized so that you can fill a tank from the bottle directly, without needing a separate dropper, and it also fits the 10ml nicotine shots commonly sold alongside shortfills.

The empty headspace in the bottle is not wasted space. It is the room you need to add one 10ml nicotine shot, bringing the total to 60ml. This is how shortfills work in the UK. Under the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations 2016, any e-liquid that contains nicotine must be sold in bottles of no more than 10ml, with a maximum strength of 20mg/ml. Larger bottles are only allowed when the liquid is nicotine-free, so 50ml shortfills are sold at 0mg with space left for you to add the nicotine yourself, if you choose.

A few practical notes on the bottle and packaging:

• Label: look for the flavour name, ingredient list, batch number and the usual health warning on the label; this is where the VG/PG ratio and mixing instructions are printed.
• Cap: press down and turn to open. Close it firmly after every fill, since thick liquid can creep up the thread and become sticky.
• Nozzle: thin enough for most standard tank fill ports, but check the fill hole on your own tank first, particularly on pod devices with very small openings.
• Plastic: the bottle flexes under pressure, so squeeze gently when filling to avoid a sudden burst of liquid.

On build quality, shortfill bottles are consumables rather than long-lived products, so expect a functional, no-frills container rather than a premium one. The things worth checking on arrival are that the tamper seal is intact, the cap is tight and the label is legible. If any of those are not right, contact the shop before you open it so it can be sorted out with the original packaging in hand.

Nicotine strength guidance and nic shot maths

Strawberry Chew is sold as a 0mg shortfill, so nicotine is entirely up to you. Many vapers choose to leave it at 0mg, particularly ex-smokers who have already moved off nicotine and people who vape mainly for the flavour. If you want nicotine, you add it with a nic shot, which is a 10ml bottle of high-strength nicotine liquid, usually at 18mg/ml or 20mg/ml, that you mix into the shortfill bottle.

The maths is simple once you see it laid out. The total volume after adding one shot is 60ml, and the strength is the total nicotine divided by that volume.

• No shot: 0mg/ml, nicotine-free
• One 10ml shot at 10mg/ml: about 1.7mg/ml, a light strength
• One 10ml shot at 18mg/ml: 3mg/ml, a common starting point for sub-ohm vaping
• One 10ml shot at 20mg/ml: about 3.3mg/ml
• Two 10ml shots at 18mg/ml: about 5.1mg/ml if added to a 70ml or larger bottle, or 6mg/ml if you first pour out 10ml of the shortfill so the total stays at 60ml

For most sub-ohm and high-airflow setups, somewhere between 0mg and 3mg suits the majority of people. Larger clouds mean more liquid passes through your lungs per puff, so you absorb more nicotine per draw than you would on a tight pod device. If you are stepping up from a nic salt pod at 10mg or 20mg, it is common to find that around 3mg to 6mg of freebase nicotine in a sub-ohm tank feels comparable, although everyone is different.

If you have never vaped nicotine before, there is no need to start. Anyone who does not currently smoke or use nicotine should leave the bottle at 0mg. Nicotine is addictive, and vaping is intended for adults who already use nicotine and want an alternative to smoking.

When mixing, remember the UK cap of 20mg/ml applies to any liquid you buy that contains nicotine, and that is why nic shots top out at 20mg/ml. If you find yourself needing more than around 6mg/ml in a sub-ohm tank, a nicotine salt liquid in a pod kit is usually a better fit than stacking shots.

Coils and mesh: choosing the right hardware

A high-VG shortfill needs a coil that can feed it properly. A good match is a sub-ohm tank, a mesh coil or a low-resistance coil that has wide wicking channels and enough airflow to cool the coil between draws. Pairing this liquid with a tight, high-resistance coil often leads to dry hits, because thick liquid struggles to travel through small cotton ports quickly.

Here is a straightforward guide to coil types and how Strawberry Chew behaves on each:

• Mesh coils (around 0.15 to 0.3 ohm): a well-balanced option for this liquid. Mesh offers a large surface area, even heating and good wicking, so the sweet strawberry note stays smooth and the chew character comes through clearly. Typical power range is 40W to 70W, but always follow the printed range on the coil.
• Standard sub-ohm round-wire coils (around 0.2 to 0.5 ohm): perfectly workable. Flavour can be a touch sharper than on mesh, and they are often cheaper to replace.
• Pod kit coils (0.6 to 1.2 ohm): usable with high-VG liquid only if the pod is designed for it. Many pod systems are made for 50/50 liquid or nic salts, so thick shortfill can wick poorly. Look for pods labelled as suitable for high-VG liquid.
• Rebuildable atomisers: experienced users can run a rebuildable deck at suitable resistances. The liquid is straightforward to wick, but you should be comfortable with Ohm's law and battery safety before attempting a build.

Priming matters more than most people think. After fitting a new coil, drip a few drops of liquid directly onto the cotton through the coil ports, fill the tank, then wait five to ten minutes before the first puff. Skipping that step is the single most common cause of a burnt first taste, and a burnt coil can sometimes ruin the flavour of the whole tank even though the coil is brand new.

As a coil ages, flavour will gradually dull and you may notice a slight gurgle or a faint burnt note. For sweet liquids, a coil typically lasts one to two weeks of regular use, but it can be shorter at high wattage or with very sweet liquids that leave more residue on the cotton. Replace the coil when the flavour fades rather than waiting for a full burnt taste.

Battery, wattage and charging for your device

Because Ohm Brew Badass Blend is a liquid rather than a device, the battery and charging advice here relates to the kit you will use it in. The right setup makes a real difference to how the strawberry chew flavour comes across.

For sub-ohm mesh coils, most users work between 40W and 70W. Anything built-in or removable that can deliver that range reliably will be fine. Battery capacity then determines how long a day of vaping lasts. As a very approximate guide, a single 18650 cell at 3000mAh will deliver roughly half a day to a day of moderate sub-ohm vaping at around 50W, and a built-in battery of 1500mAh to 2000mAh in a small pod kit will last a day at lower power with a higher-resistance coil. Real life depends on your puff frequency and coil resistance.

• Charging: use the cable that came with your device, or a reputable USB-C cable and a standard charger. Avoid unbranded fast chargers of unknown quality.
• Charge level: there is no need to charge to 100% and drain to 0% every cycle. Topping up when the battery reaches 20% to 30% is easier on lithium cells.
• Overnight charging: avoid leaving a device charging unattended overnight and never charge on a bed or sofa. Place it on a hard, non-flammable surface.
• Removable cells: only use genuine, undamaged batteries from reputable suppliers, and carry spares in a plastic case, never loose in a pocket with coins or keys.

Lower wattage generally helps this flavour. Sweet fruit profiles tend to taste best at the cooler end of the coil's range, where the strawberry note stays distinct. If the vapour feels harsh or the sweetness turns toasty, drop the wattage by 5W and try again.

When a battery or device reaches the end of its life, do not put it in household rubbish or ordinary recycling. Lithium batteries can cause fires in bin lorries and waste centres. Take old vapes, removable cells and chargers to a proper drop-off point: many vape retailers and large supermarkets offer in-store battery and small electricals recycling, and your local household waste recycling centre will accept them too. The same applies to any leftover single-use vapes, which can no longer be sold in the UK since the ban that came into force in June 2025.

Who this liquid is for, and who should skip it

Strawberry Chew is aimed at adult nicotine users who like sweet, fruity vapes and use refillable hardware. It is a sensible fit if you are:

• An ex-smoker who has moved onto vaping and prefers dessert, candy or fruit flavours to tobacco and menthol profiles.
• Someone switching from a sweet disposable-style flavour to a refillable kit, since disposables are no longer legal to buy in the UK and refillable setups are cheaper over time.
• A sub-ohm vaper looking for a gentle, easy-going all-day fruit liquid that does not tire the palate quickly.
• A vaper who likes to control nicotine strength themselves, whether that is 0mg, 3mg or higher.

It will probably not be the right choice if you are:

• A non-smoker or someone who has never used nicotine. Vaping is intended as an alternative for adults who already smoke or use nicotine products. If you do not, there is no reason to start. If you do try a nicotine-free liquid, the flavour is the only thing you are getting.
• Looking for a sour, tart or icy strawberry. This is a soft chewy sweet, so a sharp, cooling profile will suit you better.
• Using a small, tight pod system that does not accept high-VG liquid. Thick shortfill in a pod made for nic salts will wick poorly and may leak.
• Needing a high-strength liquid for tight mouth-to-lung vaping. If you want 10mg or 20mg, a nicotine salt in a 10ml bottle fits that style much better than a shortfill.
• Sensitive to very sweet flavours. Sweeteners can leave residue on the coil and some people find them cloying after a few hours.

If you are not sure, a good rule of thumb is this: if you like strawberry sweets and you own a sub-ohm tank, this bottle is worth trying. If you do not like sweet vapes or you use a small pod system, look at other options before you buy.

How to use and mix Ohm Brew Badass Blend

Mixing a shortfill is quick and a one-off job for each bottle. These steps assume you want to add one nicotine shot. If you are staying at 0mg, skip straight to the filling steps.

• Step 1, check your supplies. You need the 50ml shortfill, one 10ml nicotine shot of the strength you want, and a clean, dry surface. Wash your hands first.
• Step 2, open the shortfill. Remove the child-resistant cap by pressing down and turning, then lift out the nozzle insert if it comes out. Some bottles have a fixed nozzle that stays in place.
• Step 3, add the shot. Squeeze the full contents of the nic shot into the shortfill bottle. A 60ml bottle with 50ml of liquid in it has exactly enough room for one 10ml shot.
• Step 4, close and shake. Put the cap back on tightly and shake the bottle for around thirty seconds. Nicotine liquid is thinner than the shortfill base, so mixing takes a little effort.
• Step 5, let it rest. Leave the bottle upright in a cool, dark place for a few hours or overnight. This allows the nicotine to disperse evenly and the flavour to settle.
• Step 6, fill your tank. Squeeze gently, fill to just below the maximum line, and avoid flooding the airflow or the central tube.
• Step 7, prime and wait. Let the coil soak for five to ten minutes before your first puff.

Start at the lower end of the wattage range printed on your coil, take a few short puffs and build up from there. Mesh coils usually give their best flavour in the middle of their range rather than at the very top.

Labelling matters if you mix at home. Write the nicotine strength and the date on the bottle with a permanent marker, and keep it out of reach of children and pets. Nicotine is toxic if swallowed, and brightly coloured fruit bottles can look appealing to young children. Anyone who may have swallowed liquid, or who gets it in their eyes, should seek medical advice straight away and take the bottle with them.

Troubleshooting and storage

Most problems with a shortfill come down to wicking, wattage or storage rather than the liquid itself. These are the issues vapers report most often, with the usual fix for each.

• Burnt or dry taste: usually a priming issue or a coil that is too tight for the liquid. Lower the wattage by 5W to 10W, open the airflow, and let the coil soak for a few minutes. If the taste remains after a fresh prime, replace the coil.
• Gurgling or spitting: too much condensation inside the tank. Wipe the base, tilt the tank to clear the chimney and check you have not overfilled it.
• Leaking from the tank: check that the coil is screwed in snugly, the o-rings are in place and the tank is not overfilled. Thick liquid can find any gap in a loose seal.
• Flavour fades after a few days: this is typically coil age. Sweet liquids leave residue on the cotton, so replace the coil and the flavour will usually return.
• Weak nicotine hit: check you mixed the shot thoroughly and rested it. Poorly mixed bottles can vary between the top and bottom of the liquid. Shake well.
• Too much nicotine, or feeling dizzy or sick: stop vaping, take a break and drink water. Next time use a lower strength or fewer puffs in a row.
• Sticky bottle neck: thick liquid can collect around the thread. Wipe it with a clean cloth before closing the cap.

Storage is simple. Keep the bottle upright, tightly closed, away from sunlight and heat, and well out of reach of children and pets. A cupboard or drawer at room temperature is ideal. Sunlight and warmth can darken the liquid over time and degrade flavour, though a slight colour change is normal and does not mean the liquid is unsafe.

For disposal, empty plastic e-liquid bottles can often go in household plastic recycling, but rules vary by council, so check yours. Rinse nothing down a drain, and do not pour leftover liquid into the sink. Empty nic shot bottles should be fully drained and closed before disposal. Any vape hardware or batteries belong at a dedicated drop-off point, as described in the battery section above.

Value for money

Shortfills have been the budget-friendly route in UK vaping for years, and a 50ml bottle gives you far more liquid per pound than ten separate 10ml bottles. The saving comes from selling the liquid in bulk at 0mg, with the nicotine added separately.

Here is how the maths tends to work out for a regular vaper:

• Per-ml cost: a 50ml shortfill usually works out considerably cheaper per millilitre than 10ml nicotine salts or pre-nicotined 10ml freebase bottles. Check the current price on this page and compare it against a multipack of 10ml bottles of similar quality.
• Nic shot cost: a single 10ml shot adds a small amount, typically comparable to a single 10ml bottle of liquid. It is optional if you vape at 0mg.
• Coil cost: sub-ohm coils cost more and burn through liquid faster, so factor in coil replacements when you compare to a lower-power pod kit.
• Hardware: you need a refillable device, so the total cost includes the kit if you do not already own one. Compared with buying single-use vapes at regular intervals, which are no longer sold in the UK, a refillable setup pays for itself quickly.

Where Ohm Brew Badass Blend tends to sit is in the middle of the shortfill market. It is not a bargain-basement liquid, and it is not priced as a premium craft product. You are paying for a well-known UK brand name, consistent flavour from bottle to bottle and a flavour that is easy to like. For vapers who just want a reliable sweet strawberry liquid for everyday use, that balance is reasonable.

The bottle lasts as long as you use it carefully. Fill the tank to the correct level rather than overfilling and flooding the coil, replace coils when needed rather than letting them burn through, and store the liquid properly so that the last third of the bottle tastes the same as the first. Those habits save more money over a year than hunting for the cheapest price on any individual bottle.

Honest comparisons with similar liquids

No single liquid suits everybody, so here is a fair comparison with the types of product Strawberry Chew will be set against. These are category comparisons rather than claims about specific rival products.

• Against fresh or tart strawberry shortfills: a tart strawberry liquid will taste sharper and more like a fruit. Strawberry Chew is deliberately softer and sweeter. If you want realism, look at the tart options. If you want candy, this is closer.
• Against icy fruit blends: menthol and ice shortfills deliver a cold finish and a stronger throat hit. This liquid has none of that, and it is better for people who find cooling agents harsh. If you like a cooling kick, you could add a few drops of a menthol additive, but that changes the profile significantly.
• Against dessert and custard shortfills: heavier flavours like custards and bakery profiles are richer and tend to gunk up coils faster. Strawberry Chew is lighter and generally gentler on the coil than a thick dessert liquid.
• Against nicotine salt strawberry liquids: nic salts at 10mg or 20mg come in 10ml bottles and suit small pod kits. They are smoother at higher strengths but give far less vapour. If you vape on a sub-ohm tank, a shortfill is the better match. If you vape on a tight pod, a nic salt is the better match.
• Against bar-style shortfills: many shortfills now copy the flavours of popular single-use vapes. Those liquids can taste very similar to what you would have bought in a disposable, so if you used to enjoy a sweet fruit disposable, expect a comparable experience here but with more control over strength.

In fairness, there are things this liquid does not do. It is not a sour candy, it is not a realistic fruit juice, and it will not give you a cold, refreshing finish. It also relies on the sweet profile working for you personally; very sweet liquids are a matter of taste, and some vapers move on from them after a few weeks.

If your taste leans towards soft, fruity candy flavours and you have suitable hardware, this is a reasonable, dependable choice that does what the name promises. If you want something different, there are plenty of other profiles available, and a sampling approach of buying a couple of bottles in different styles is the most reliable way to find your favourite.
