The nicotine-free shortfill era is booming, and the Ohm Brew Double Brew Bar Series leads the charge with vibrant, disposable-inspired flavours designed for mouth‑to‑lung (MTL) vaping. Among the standout blends is a crisp apple and tangy rhubarb fusion that achieves a polished balance of sweet and sour — a flavour profile rarely offered in conventional shortfills. With a generous 100ml bottle size, space for two 10ml nicotine shots, and a 50/50 VG/PG mix optimised for pod kits and starters, these shortfills offer convenience without sacrificing taste.
In this detailed guide, we’ll explore what makes Ohm Brew’s Double Brew stand apart: flavour chemistry, design intent, user experience, kit pairing advice, value, and sustainability. Whether you’re transitioning from disposables or building your first refillable kit, this series is crafted to impress.
Disposable vapes brought fruity and sweet notes into everyday routines, but often at the cost of waste and limited supply. Ohm Brew leverages that same flavour library, but in larger, refillable format. Apple & Rhubarb exemplifies this innovation: Biting apple notes join tart rhubarb, resulting in vapour that is mouth‑watering yet comforting, evoking summer pies without excessive sweetness.
By emulating youthful, vibrant flavours in shortfills, Ohm Brew caters to a broad audience while stepping up the quality game. The bar series extends to candy and ice blends too, creating a fun yet mature choice for users seeking variety without compromise.
Each shortfill contains 100ml of nicotine‑free vape juice within a 120ml bottle, leaving space for two 10ml nicotine shots. This design offers flexibility: mix one shot for a modest strength, or two depending on preference and on the nicotine strength of the shortfill. Those choosing to stay nicotine‑free can use the juice as‑is.
The packaging is child‑resistant and in compliance with TPD regulations, while the 50/50 VG/PG blend ensures compatibility with most MTL pods used in devices available at FREESMO.
Ohm Brew’s flavour team takes inspiration from the iconic branding and taste profiles of disposable bars, while re−engineering them for refillable systems. Flavour notes are layered, not one-dimensional; for example, Raspberry Strawberry Cherry combines three fruits, creating a unique fusion where the strawberry and cherry interplay produces a new, nuanced taste, with raspberry adding a subtle background note. Lemon & Lime instead blends citrusy flavours like zesty lime and tangy lemon that layer to deliver a refreshing, zingy vape. The citrus notes are balanced to avoid being overly sharp, creating a lively but smooth experience.
This multi-layered approach showcases Ohm Brew’s commitment to quality and variety — and is a clear step beyond basic single-note juices.
A 50% VG and 50% PG blend delivers the best of both worlds: Enough VG to carry flavour and a satisfying vapour scale, with PG thin enough to avoid clogging coils or delivering harsh throat hits. This consistent formula works well in popular pod kits such as the Caliburn G3, Vaporesso XROS 5, and OXA Xlim Pro, offering a clean, rich flavour with every puff. Balanced clouds and clarity make the series suitable for home use and discreet settings.
Shortfills are best enjoyed in refillable pod systems that prioritise flavour for MTL vaping. Recommended devices include:
Using these kits with Ohm Brew shortfills means enjoying bold flavours in devices built for discreet, flavour-centered performance.
Shortfills like Ohm Brew offer clear economic advantages. Compared with now-banned 600‑puff disposables costing around £5, a 100ml shortfill plus pods can deliver thousands of puffs for a similar, if not lower, price. This not only saves money, but also reduces single-use plastic.
Real-world testing shows that Ohm Brew Shortfills retain flavour through the life of a pod, never fading or muting. That improves satisfaction and vape consistency throughout the day.
Their 120ml bottles are filled with 100ml of nicotine-free e-liquid, allowing users to customise nicotine strength while reducing the need for multiple pre-mixed bottles — an approach that helps minimise plastic waste. All e-liquids are produced locally in Belfast, supporting regional suppliers and reducing transportation emissions.
Additionally, Ohm Brew actively promotes environmental stewardship through partnerships such as the Eden Project, where they plant a tree for every four Brew Bars sold, contributing to carbon offsetting and reforestation. The company also encourages recycling of packaging materials and strives to reduce single-use plastics, further lessening their environmental footprint.
This range suits vapers who:
It's particularly useful for those transitioning from single-use vapes to refillable systems looking to preserve favourite tastes.
Ohm Brew shortfills meet TPD standards with child-resistant packaging, UK‑production traceability, and safety composition. No disposable claims such as health benefits are made, respecting ASA and MHRA rules.
Nicotine shots are sold legally in the UK in 10ml bottles, supporting consumer choice within regulation. However, users must remember that nicotine is addictive, and shortfills with added shots should be used responsibly.
Still not sure which flavour suits you? FREESMO offers a Smoke‑Free Questionnaire to guide you based on usage, flavour preference, and kit compatibility. This tool helps tailor choices and provides peace of mind for new vapers.
Ohm Brew continues growing its flavour portfolio. Expect future flavours like iced fruit, dessert, and layered beverages. The shortfill format is gaining traction as alternatives to disposables, and the “Double Brew” line is at the forefront.
