Yeti Original 100ml overview and key specifications

Yeti Original 100ml is a nicotine-free shortfill e-liquid from Yeti, a UK brand known for large bottles, fruit-led recipes and pricing that suits people who vape every day. The Original line is the core of the Yeti range: a family of 100ml bottles that share one base formula and one bottle design, with only the flavour changing from variant to variant. This guide covers the range as a whole, so whichever variant you pick, whether that is a straight fruit, an iced blend, a sour mix or a cola, the practical advice below applies to it.

The important word here is shortfill. A shortfill is a bottle that holds less liquid than its size allows. You get 100ml of flavoured, nicotine-free liquid in an oversized bottle, and the empty space is there so you can add nicotine shots if you want a nicotine strength. UK rules limit any bottle that contains nicotine to 10ml and cap nicotine strength at 20mg/ml, so a 100ml bottle can only be sold legally at 0mg. If you want nicotine, you buy 10ml shots separately and mix them in at home, which takes about a minute.

Because this is a bulk bottle rather than a ready-to-use device, there is no battery, no puff counter and no built-in coil. What you are buying is liquid, and the experience depends on the tank, coil and battery you pair it with. That is the trade-off: a little more setup in return for a much lower cost per millilitre than pods or single-use style products.

• Product: Yeti Original 100ml shortfill e-liquid
• Liquid volume: 100ml, supplied in an oversized bottle (commonly 120ml) so there is headspace for nicotine shots
• Nicotine as supplied: 0mg, nicotine-free
• Base: high-VG blend, generally 70VG/30PG across this range (always check the label on your bottle)
• Suited to: sub-ohm tanks and refillable mesh coil kits
• Adding nicotine: one 10ml 18mg shot gives roughly 1.6mg, two shots give roughly 3mg
• Equivalent volume: about fifty 2ml tank fills
• Age restriction: 18+ only

In short, Yeti Original 100ml is aimed at adults who already vape, own a refillable tank, and want a straightforward fruit-focused liquid in a size that does not need re-ordering every few days. The sections below go through how it behaves, what it tastes like, how to mix it, and where it fits against other options.

Performance and puff delivery

Puff count is a figure that belongs to disposable and pod products, and a 100ml bottle does not have one. A fairer way to think about performance is by volume. UK law limits refillable tanks to 2ml, so a 100ml bottle represents about fifty full tank fills. If you vape a moderate amount and use somewhere between 3ml and 5ml a day, one bottle lasts roughly three to five weeks. Lighter users on 2ml a day can stretch a bottle beyond six weeks, while heavy sub-ohm users on 6ml or more will get through it in under three.

The high-VG base is what shapes the way this liquid performs. Vegetable glycerine produces dense vapour and a smooth, slightly sweet inhale, and a 70VG blend is thick enough to produce large clouds on a sub-ohm setup while staying gentle on the throat. At 0mg there is very little throat hit at all, so the sensation is mostly warm, smooth vapour and flavour. Add a nicotine shot and you gain a light throat hit that rises with strength, though at 1.6mg to 3mg it stays soft.

Vapour production scales with power. On a 0.2 ohm mesh coil at 40W to 55W you should see a dense, warm cloud and full flavour. Drop the wattage towards the bottom of the coil's rated range and the vapour becomes cooler and the flavour a little more delicate, which many people prefer for fruit and iced recipes. Push past the top of the rated range and you risk a harsh, scorched edge with sweeter flavours, since sugars and sweeteners caramelise quickly at high heat.

Flavour consistency from first fill to last is generally good with a bottle like this, provided you shake it well after adding any shots and keep the tank topped up before it runs low. A common complaint with large shortfills is that the first tank tastes bolder than the later ones, which is usually down to a coil beginning to clog rather than the liquid changing.

• Typical daily use: 2ml to 6ml for most sub-ohm users
• Approximate bottle life: three to five weeks at 3ml to 5ml a day
• Throat hit at 0mg: very light; at 3mg it is mild
• Vapour: dense and warm on sub-ohm coils; thinner and cooler on low-power kits
• Not suited to: fine-wick pod coils built for nicotine salts

If you are moving from a pod or disposable-style product, expect a very different experience. Where those devices deliver short, tight draws, this liquid is designed for longer, airier inhales with plenty of vapour.

Flavour profile across the Yeti Original range

The Original line is built around approachable, fruit-led profiles rather than complex layered desserts. The variants sold under the Yeti Original 100ml name include single fruits such as cherry and grape, blends such as apricot watermelon, blueberry peach, orange mango, passionfruit lychee and honeydew blackcurrant, iced options such as banana ice, mango ice, pineapple ice and frozen pear, and a few outliers including cola and energy. Pick a variant on the product page and the flavour name tells you most of what you need to know.

Fruit-only variants tend to be sweet, rounded and easy to vape. These are the ones that suit all-day use, because the flavour sits at a comfortable intensity without the sharpness that can tire your palate over a long session. Single-note fruits like grape and cherry usually lean on a candy-like sweetness, while two-fruit blends give a lead flavour and a supporting one, so you will often taste one fruit on the inhale and the second on the exhale.

Iced variants add a cooling agent to the fruit. This is not the same as menthol: the cooling sensation arrives on the exhale as a fresh, crisp chill without a strong minty taste, and it makes sweet fruit feel lighter. Ice is a good choice if you find standard fruit liquids too sugary or if you vape in warmer weather. If you dislike cooling sensations entirely, stay with the variants that do not carry ice in the name.

Sour variants such as sour grape and sour raspberry watermelon ice add a tart edge to the sweetness. The sharpness is most noticeable on the first few draws and then settles as your palate adjusts. Many people enjoy the contrast, though if you have a sensitive mouth it is worth starting with a milder fruit before committing to a full 100ml of sour.

• Single fruit: cherry, grape; sweet, simple, easy to vape all day
• Fruit blends: apricot watermelon, blueberry peach, orange mango, passionfruit lychee; lead fruit plus a supporting note
• Iced fruit: banana ice, mango ice, pineapple ice, frozen pear, citrus freeze; fruit with a clean cooling finish
• Sour: sour grape, sour raspberry watermelon ice; sweet with a tart edge
• Drinks-style: cola and energy; fizzy, sweet and slightly sharp

Flavour is subjective, and these descriptions follow the recipe names and the way each style typically tastes rather than a laboratory analysis. If you are unsure, choose the variant closest to a flavour you already enjoy, and remember that sweeter liquids will clog a coil a little faster than lighter ones.

Design, bottle and build quality

A shortfill bottle is a simple piece of packaging, but the small details matter when you are going to handle it daily. The Yeti Original 100ml bottle is a soft, squeezable plastic container with a narrow nozzle designed to fit the fill ports of most modern tanks. The soft sides let you control the flow, and the thin tip lets you aim into small top-fill holes without spilling onto the tank or your hands. Bottles in this class are normally supplied with a tamper-evident seal and a child-resistant cap, both of which are required for e-liquid sold in the UK.

The 100ml of liquid is generally supplied in a larger bottle, commonly 120ml, so there is room for two 10ml nicotine shots. This is the single most useful design feature of a shortfill. Look at the fill level when you open it: the visible gap at the top is the space for shots, not a short measure. Always check the label on your own bottle, because exact bottle sizes can vary between batches and variants.

The label carries the information UK law requires, including the flavour name, volume, ingredients, batch number, best-before date and the required warnings for nicotine products. Keep the label legible and use the batch number if you ever need to contact a retailer about a problem. Store the bottle upright, in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and radiators, since heat and light degrade e-liquid and can darken it over time. A slightly darker liquid after a few months is normal and usually harmless, but a changed smell or taste is a sign to retire the bottle.

Dealing with empty bottles is straightforward. Once empty, rinse the bottle and cap if your local council accepts mixed plastics, and check your council's guidance, because collection rules differ across the UK. Do not pour unused liquid down the sink. Empty nicotine shot bottles should be treated in line with your local rules for small plastic containers, and any bottle with remaining liquid should go to a household waste recycling centre rather than your kerbside box. Vape hardware, batteries and chargers are a different category, and the next section explains where to take them.

• Bottle type: soft plastic with a narrow nozzle
• Safety features: child-resistant cap and tamper-evident seal
• Headspace: room for two 10ml nicotine shots in a typical 120ml bottle
• Storage: upright, cool, dark and out of reach of children and pets

Battery, charging and responsible recycling

The bottle itself has no battery, so battery and charging advice here is about the device you put it in. The right battery depends on the coil you choose. For a 0.2 ohm mesh coil running at 40W to 55W you need a mod or kit capable of delivering that power steadily, which usually means either a built-in battery of 2,000mAh to 3,000mAh or a removable 18650 cell. A single high-quality 18650 typically holds 2,500mAh to 3,500mAh, and dual-cell devices double that.

It helps to turn the numbers into something practical. A 3,000mAh cell at a nominal 3.7V stores around 11 watt-hours of energy. At 40W, that is roughly 17 minutes of total firing time before losses, which works out to something like 200 to 300 draws of three to four seconds. Heavier vaping at 60W or above will drain the battery faster, so a sub-ohm user will usually charge once a day, and sometimes twice. A low-power kit of 15W to 25W with a 1,000mAh to 1,500mAh battery can last a day on a single charge for moderate use, though it will deliver less vapour from a thick 70VG liquid.

Charging is simple, but it should be done carefully. Use the USB cable supplied with your device, plug it into a standard wall adapter or computer port rather than a cheap unbranded charger, and charge on a hard, non-flammable surface. Do not leave a device charging unattended overnight, and stop using any battery that is swollen, hot, dented or has a damaged wrap. If you use removable cells, keep them in a case in your bag, never loose with coins or keys.

When hardware reaches the end of its life, do not put it in a general waste bin. Lithium batteries can cause fires in bin lorries and recycling plants. Under UK waste electrical rules, shops that sell vape devices are expected to accept used ones for recycling, and many local household waste recycling centres have a small electricals bank. You can use the Recycle Your Electricals postcode locator to find a nearby drop-off point. Single-use vapes have been banned from sale in the UK since June 2025, so refillable and rechargeable devices are now the standard route, which makes proper battery recycling more relevant than ever.

• Bottle battery: none; the liquid is used in your own device
• Recommended power: 40W to 55W for 0.2 ohm mesh coils; check the coil's printed range
• Battery guide: 2,500mAh to 3,500mAh per cell for sub-ohm use
• Recycling: return devices and batteries to a vape retailer, a household waste recycling centre or a drop-off point found via Recycle Your Electricals

Coil and mesh technology: matching the liquid to your hardware

Coil choice has more influence on how Yeti Original 100ml tastes and feels than almost anything else. This is a high-VG liquid, and thick liquids need coils that can wick quickly. Mesh coils are a reliable match because their large, flat surface area draws liquid through a lot of tiny holes, and they distribute heat evenly. Standard round-wire sub-ohm coils also work, provided they have large wicking ports and are rated for 70VG or higher.

Resistance matters too. For a typical sub-ohm tank, a 0.15 to 0.3 ohm mesh coil is the sweet spot for dense vapour, while 0.4 to 0.6 ohm coils suit lower-power devices running at 20W to 35W and give a slightly tighter draw with lower liquid consumption. Printed on every coil is a recommended wattage range, such as 40W to 60W. Start at the lower end of that range, take a few draws, then nudge the power up until the flavour is full without tasting hot or dry.

Fine-wick pod coils with resistances of 0.8 to 1.2 ohm are a poor match. They are designed for thin, high-PG nicotine salt liquids, and a thick 70VG liquid can struggle to soak into them quickly enough, leading to dry hits and burnt cotton. If you use a pod kit, make sure it takes sub-ohm or 0.6 ohm style coils and a refill port suited to larger bottle nozzles.

Priming is the step people skip and regret. After installing a new coil, drip a few drops of liquid directly onto the exposed cotton through the coil's wicking holes, fill the tank, and then let it sit for five to ten minutes before you fire it. Thick liquid takes longer to saturate the cotton, and firing a dry coil burns it immediately. Take two or three unpowered draws before you press the fire button for the first time.

• Closest match: mesh coils rated for high-VG liquids
• Common resistances: 0.15 to 0.3 ohm for dense vapour; 0.4 to 0.6 ohm for lower power
• Coil life: typically one to two weeks; sweet or iced liquids can shorten it
• Poor match: 0.8 to 1.2 ohm fine-wick pod coils
• Priming time: five to ten minutes after fitting a new coil

Expect to replace the coil when the flavour turns flat, muted or slightly burnt even with fresh liquid. Sweeteners in fruit recipes leave residue on the cotton, and that residue is usually the reason a coil fades, rather than a fault in the coil itself.

Nicotine strength guidance and the UK 20mg limit

Yeti Original 100ml is supplied at 0mg, and that is a fixed legal reality rather than a marketing choice. UK regulations cap nicotine e-liquid bottles at 10ml and nicotine strength at 20mg/ml. The same 20mg/ml ceiling applied to the disposable vapes that were common before the 2025 ban, and it still applies to every refill bottle, pod and nicotine shot sold today. Because a 100ml bottle exceeds the 10ml limit, it can only be nicotine-free, and nicotine is added by the user via separate shots.

The mixing arithmetic is simple. A standard shot is a 10ml bottle of 18mg/ml nicotine, usually in a 50/50 base. Add one shot to 100ml of 0mg liquid and you have 110ml at around 1.6mg. Add two shots and you have 120ml at around 3mg. Because the shots are 50/50 and the shortfill is high-VG, the final liquid is slightly thinner than the original, which many people find helps wicking.

• 0mg: no shots; smooth, no nicotine, the usual choice for people who vape for flavour
• About 1.6mg: one 18mg shot; a light throat hit
• About 3mg: two 18mg shots; a noticeable but soft throat hit, a common starting point for adults moving from smoking to sub-ohm vaping
• Above 3mg: not practical in this bottle without discarding liquid; consider a different product

Higher strengths in sub-ohm devices are a poor idea. Sub-ohm tanks deliver a lot of liquid per draw, so a high nicotine strength at high power can feel harsh and deliver far more nicotine than intended. That is why shortfills are normally mixed at 3mg or lower. If you want 6mg or more, a 10ml freebase bottle in a smaller mouth-to-lung device is a better route. If you prefer a smooth hit at higher strength, nicotine salts in a pod kit are the usual choice, but they belong in a different product and different hardware.

Some people tip out 10ml of liquid to fit a third shot, which gives roughly 4.5mg in 120ml. This works, but it dilutes the flavour by about a tenth and it is outside what the bottle was designed for. Nicotine is addictive, so start low and only choose the strength you need. Nicotine products are for adults who already use nicotine, and they are not recommended for non-smokers.

Who Yeti Original 100ml is for, and who should look elsewhere

This liquid suits a clear group of adults, and it is just as useful to be honest about the groups it does not suit. If you recognise yourself in the first list below, it is likely to be good value. If you fit the second, a different product will probably serve you better.

Good fit:

• Adults who already vape on a refillable sub-ohm tank or mesh coil kit and want a lower cost per millilitre.
• Vapers who prefer fruit, iced or sour flavours and do not need a complex dessert recipe.
• People who vape at 0mg for flavour, or who are comfortable adding a nicotine shot to reach 1.6mg to 3mg.
• Anyone who goes through a lot of liquid and is tired of buying 10ml bottles every week.
• Adults who like the idea of one large bottle in the cupboard instead of a stack of small ones.

Look elsewhere if:

• You are under 18, or you have never used nicotine. Nicotine products are strictly for adults.
• Your device is a small pod kit that only takes 0.8 to 1.2 ohm coils or is designed for nicotine salts.
• You want a ready-to-use bottle with a set nicotine strength and no mixing. A 10ml bottle is simpler.
• You want a strength above 3mg without altering the bottle, because the mixing headroom does not allow it.
• You expect a luxury, multi-layered flavour. Yeti Original focuses on clear fruit and cooling notes at an accessible price.

It is also worth asking whether you are ready to mix. Adding shots is easy, but it is a step, and it needs a clean surface, a few minutes, and a good shake afterwards. If you would rather skip that entirely, you can vape the liquid at 0mg and keep your nicotine from another source, or move to a pre-mixed product. Neither choice is wrong. The point of a shortfill is to give you flexibility, and not everyone wants that.

Finally, if you are buying as a gift, remember that age verification applies. Vape products can only be sold to adults aged 18 or over, and a delivery may need to be signed for by an adult.

How to use: filling, mixing and vaping step by step

Using Yeti Original 100ml is easy once you have done it once. The steps below cover the full process from unboxing to first draw, including the optional nicotine step. Take your time the first time round, and keep a tissue or paper towel nearby for drips.

• Step 1, check the bottle: confirm the seal is intact, the label is readable and the best-before date is in the future. Give it a gentle swirl.
• Step 2, add nicotine shots if you want them: twist off the cap of the bottle and the nozzle, squeeze one or two 10ml nicotine shots into the headspace, and replace the nozzle and cap tightly. For 0mg, skip this step.
• Step 3, shake well: shake the bottle firmly for about a minute so the nicotine and the flavoured base combine evenly. Let it rest for a few hours, or overnight, if you can. Resting is optional, but it often smooths the flavour.
• Step 4, prepare your tank: fit a fresh coil, drip a few drops onto the cotton, and screw the base on. Open the airflow fully for the first fills.
• Step 5, fill the tank: use the top-fill port, slowly, and avoid covering the central air tube. Fill to just below the maximum line, never above it.
• Step 6, wait: leave the tank for five to ten minutes so the liquid soaks into the cotton.
• Step 7, start low: set the power at the bottom of the coil's recommended range, take a few gentle draws, and then increase gradually to taste.
• Step 8, maintain: refill before the liquid drops near the coil openings, and wipe the mouthpiece and threads with a tissue occasionally.

A few habits make a difference over time. Always shake the bottle before refilling the tank if it has been sitting for a while, because nicotine shots can settle if stored for long periods. Do not mix different flavours in the same bottle unless you are prepared to experiment, as the result is unpredictable. And never use a damaged bottle or one with a broken seal.

Keep all bottles and shots away from children and pets. If liquid gets on your skin, wash it off with water, and if it is swallowed or gets in your eyes, seek medical advice and keep the packaging to hand. Wash your hands after handling any nicotine liquid, particularly before eating.

Troubleshooting common problems

Most issues with a shortfill setup come from the same handful of causes. Work through the list below before assuming the liquid or device is faulty.

• Dry or burnt taste: usually a dry or worn coil. Check the liquid level, prime a new coil properly, and drop the power by 5W to 10W. If the problem persists, change the coil.
• Gurgling or spitting: too much condensation or an overfilled tank. Wipe the airflow channel and chimney, reduce the fill level slightly, and open the airflow.
• Leaking from the tank: check the coil is screwed in fully, the seals are seated, the tank is not overfilled and the threads are clean. Thick liquid reveals loose fittings quickly.
• Flat or muted flavour: this is often vaper's tongue, a temporary palate fatigue. Try water, a short break or a different flavour for a day. If it persists, replace the coil.
• Weak vapour: airflow may be too tight, the wattage too low for the coil, or the coil may be clogged. Check the coil's rated range and that the battery is charged.
• Throat hit too harsh: reduce the nicotine strength, reduce the power or open the airflow further.
• Bottle leaks when squeezed: check the nozzle is pushed firmly into the neck and the cap is screwed on tightly.
• Liquid has darkened: a slight colour change over several months is normal. If the smell or taste has also changed, discard it.
• Sticky device: wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and let it dry fully before using.

If you have tried these steps and still see an issue with the liquid, such as a bottle that arrived damaged, with a broken seal or with a clearly incorrect flavour, keep the packaging and the batch number from the label, take a photo, and contact the shop. Faulty or misdescribed goods are covered by your statutory consumer rights in the UK.

It also helps to keep a spare coil on hand. Coils are consumables, and running out unexpectedly is the most common reason people end up with a bottle and no way to use it. A pack of coils costs a few pounds and covers several weeks of use.

Value for money

Value is the main reason people choose a shortfill. At a listed price of £5.75 when this guide was written, Yeti Original 100ml works out at roughly 5.8p per millilitre before any nicotine shots. Ten-millilitre nicotine bottles are usually priced at a few pounds each, which is several times the cost per millilitre. Over a month of regular vaping, that difference adds up to a meaningful amount.

Adding nicotine does raise the cost, but only slightly. Nicotine shots are typically priced at well under £1.50 each, and often under £1 in multipacks, so a 100ml bottle mixed to 3mg still comes out far cheaper than buying the equivalent volume in 10ml bottles. Remember that coils are an ongoing cost too: a pack of replacement coils usually costs a few pounds and lasts a few weeks, so budget for them alongside your liquid.

Here is a quick way to think about running costs. If you use around 4ml a day, one 100ml bottle lasts about 25 days. At £5.75, that is roughly 23p a day on liquid, and perhaps another 10p to 15p a day for coils and shots. That makes a typical daily cost of well under 50p, which compares well with ready-made pods for adults who already vape.

• Cost per ml: roughly 5.8p at £5.75 for 100ml
• Volume equivalent: about fifty 2ml tank fills
• Typical daily liquid cost: about 23p at 4ml a day
• Extras to budget for: nicotine shots (optional) and replacement coils

Delivery is worth factoring in. UK delivery is free on orders over £20, and orders placed before 4pm are normally dispatched the same day. Four bottles at £5.75 comes to £23, which clears the threshold, and three bottles plus a pack of shots or coils gets you there as well. If you already know the flavours you like, buying a few at once is the most efficient way to use the free delivery.

One honest caveat: price is not the only measure of value. A cheaper liquid that you finish and enjoy is better value than a pricier one that you abandon after half a bottle. If you have never tried a particular variant, start with a flavour similar to one you know.

How Yeti Original compares with the alternatives

It helps to compare Yeti Original 100ml against the other places you might spend the same money. The comparisons below aim to be fair, including where the alternatives are better.

Against other Yeti lines. Yeti sells several other 100ml ranges, including Blizzard, Ice Cold, Sourz, Summit Series and No Ice. At the time of writing, Blizzard, Ice Cold and Sourz are listed at £6.99, Summit Series at £8.99 and No Ice at £10.99, all as 0mg shortfills. Original is the lowest priced of the group and has the widest flavour choice, with a spread of fruit, ice and drinks-style variants. If you want a specifically iced or sour line, the dedicated ranges concentrate on that style, but Original already includes plenty of iced and sour options, so it is a sensible place to start.

Against other brands' 100ml shortfills. Brands such as IVG and Doozy sell 70VG shortfills in similar sizes. Most are priced within a few pounds of each other, and quality at this price tier is broadly comparable. The practical differences are flavour range, how sweet each recipe is and whether you like the particular blend names. Premium dessert and custard brands are available too, typically at a higher price, and they offer more layered flavours. If complexity is what you want, expect to pay more for it. If you want straightforward fruit at a modest price, Yeti is a reasonable option.

Against 10ml nicotine salt bottles. Nicotine salts are designed for pod kits and low-power devices, deliver a smoother hit at higher strengths up to 20mg/ml, and need no mixing. They cost much more per millilitre and suit a different type of vaper. If you use a pod kit, a salt is the sensible choice, and Yeti Original is not.

Against pre-filled pods. Pods are convenient but small, and the running cost is higher. A refillable tank with a shortfill gives you a lot more choice and a lower cost, but takes more setup and more care.

Against disposables. Single-use vapes are no longer sold in the UK, so the realistic comparison is with rechargeable pod devices. The same 20mg/ml limit applies in both cases.

• Choose Yeti Original if: you have a sub-ohm tank, want fruit flavours and want a low price per millilitre.
• Choose a premium shortfill if: you want layered desserts or custards and accept a higher price.
• Choose nic salts if: you use a pod kit or want a stronger, smoother hit without mixing.
