I wanted to thank you sooner for your input. It is obvious to me that you have a bit of knowledge about chemistry. I on the other hand have zilch. I have been mixing my own for 4 years or so and can't imagine having to pay out my nose for nic in the coming future. I bought six 500ml bottles of nic @ (10%) hoping to be able to stash it for the lean years. I currently vape @ .3 and am satisfied. I just got off the phone with my supplier that told me that after 1 year in storage I should do titration and would NOT tell me if long term storage was safe. I am in a pickle, I can make 500mls last me over a year, maybe 2, so would you have any idea if it would turn toxic in time? Thanks a lot for keeping me safe from myself.
I also owe a thanks to you as well for your input. I just am trying to do something that is not anything I know crap about but don't want to pay 100 times the current going rate for what I am doing now. In an earlier post to the same thread I stated that I purchased six 500ml bottles of 100nic (10%) and form where I bought it, was not given any encouragement that I should use it past a year. Hell, I can get close to 2 years per if I didn't help a few friends out.
I wanted to ask you about using butane to make a tobacco extract...how did it work? were you able to mix it with PG to create an extract to make juice with? how was the flavor...I know some people add PGA to their butane extact to nuteralize dangerous additives in the butane it seems at that point it is put in a freezer I'm wondering is the waxes and oils could be taken out at this point .
I didn't try. Someone who has chemical experience said that they had tried a couple of times with a butane extraction and failed with getting the tobacco to release the nicotine and only got a substance that was no good. I hope that there is a way developed for those of us who don't have a background in chemistry to extract or we are going to get fucked.
I'm not interested in extracting nicotine.. I am trying to extract flavor and get the cleanest NET juice I can.....it would be great if there was a safe kitchen method for extracting nic in case the goverment decides to go Nazi on vapers.
The government is going to do that anyway. I am sorry I can't be of any help. My concern is only the nic as flavor will always be around for us.
synthetic tobaccos are God awfull....NETs are much much better but they tend to foul up coils pretty quick, alot of us are tryig to find a way to make a NET that doesn't have us changing wicks everyday.
It would be great if you could provide a link to the article. I would love to have a backup plan if we can't buy nicotine when the FDA comes to rape all of the people who vape.
Thank you, I haven't heard anything about NET juice. I smoked a tobacco in my pipe called "Blue Note" and would love to vape some of that flavor if possible. I bookmarked the link.
I really appreciate your posts. I have bought enough nicotine to last me for 20 years, only 1 problem. No one will guarantee that it will be good past 1 year. I know that it will last longer but what I don't know is, will it turn into a poison over 5 years or will it just be 92% nicotine.
yeah I've been vaping for over 3 years and have belonged to half a dozen forums, and I've never even come across anyoen mention a DIY nicotine extraction method...from everything I've read the process is involved and requires expensive equipment...but I agree a DIY method would be fantastic.
its the same way they process coca leaves into paste, you did it right u just now need to break it down.
