Good attitude IMHO.If I was to take up vaping the juice would be unflavoured nic/vg/distilled water.
Yup, those 3-5000 toxic chemicals they soak tobacco in for commercial consumption are a bitch and definitely add to the "drug hit".Turns out, either it wasnt the nicotine that I was trying to extract from smoking tobacco, or nicotine without the reinforces in combusted tobacco is a pretty piss weak drug for me.
Have you tried some of the commercially available highly rated tobacco nets out there and if so what did you think ?Good attitude IMHO.
If you don't want to use PG you can dilute VG with 5% distilled water. Wicks better that way but you still get the added smooth sweetness and thick cloud from the VG.
I make my own juice. Just this year I started making my own tobacco flavour too. I soak organic tobacco in distilled water then hit it with a fan, covered with a stocking around the bowl to prevent dust and lint getting in, and in 2-3 days I have the residue which I then redissolve into a 50/50 VG/PG base.
The shit's so strong it only takes 4-7 drops in a 5.5ml tank to add a nice "earthiness" and reduce any harshness that may be present in, say, a fruit-flavoured mix made with concentrates and base.
I don't know how others do it, but I just went about it logically. Tried boiling in distilled water to see if it would be any more efficient but all that did was increase cloudiness and therefore cellulose residue, which reduces coil life. A 2-hour soak in distilled water works a treat.

I'll move the thread to "Hobbies" where the other smoking and vaping stuff resides...
That was not one of the chemicals talked about on any forums I was on and I was on a ton of them but that was years ago . It was always diacetyl, acetyl propionyl and acetoin with acetoin being the least dangerous of the three.IIRC vitamin E acetate was supposed to be the one to be really-wary of, no?
Α-Tocopheryl acetate
α-Tocopheryl acetate, also known as vitamin E acetate, is a synthetic form of vitamin E. It is the ester of acetic acid and α-tocopherol. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that vitamin E acetate is a very strong culprit of concern in the 2019 outbreak of vaping-associated pulmonary injury, but there is not yet sufficient evidence to rule out contributions from other chemicals. Vaporization of this ester produces toxic pyrolysis.
Yeah, I've had Vape365 Red Tobacco, some gold one or another and a bunch of concentrates like Virginia Tobacco, Turkish Blend and whatnot.Have you tried some of the commercially available highly rated tobacco nets out there and if so what did you think ?
Can't remember, but IIRC it was responsible for many of the very-few (small handful) of yearly deaths, usually of 15-year-old girls who hadn't a clue what they were doing and no doubt sourced their juices willy-nilly.Where did you read about vitamin E acetate ?
I never tried a NET but I did buy tobacco absolutes and Virginia based E juice flavors . They were OK but nothing great .Yeah, I've had Vape365 Red Tobacco, some gold one or another and a bunch of concentrates like Virginia Tobacco, Turkish Blend and whatnot.
They generally taste more-tobaccoey than my home-made stuff and can be pretty-good. They generally need time to steep into a fruit / vanilla-style mix 'though, so you may not taste much at first.

Vitamin E acetate is a key culprit in the vaping illness outbreak - Vox
Vitamin E acetate is OK to eat, but dangerous to inhale.
Yeah I was adding stuff instead of starting a new post , sorry about that .I see you updated your post mate.
I was responding to it before you said, "Never mind I looked it up".
It makes you look even-cooler in this shot 'though bro':And I wish it didn’t make me look so cool
