The Pure BICKFORD'S Experiment!

[sanneke]

You can get the food grade PG from Bickford's. 17.95 for 32 oz. A LOT cheaper than e-liquid!!!!.

Sorry for my ignorance, but I WANT to understand.

I have about 5 bottles of HIGH nicotine liquid from e-cig.

Can I buy propylene glycol (food grade) from Bickford's, and then mix it with the liquid from e-cig?

Also does the PG come in different flavors?
Or are the flavors you buy there are already PG?

Bickford sells flavours (that are based on pg mostly; sóme on oil though, so watch it you don't take those); and Bickford also sells pure PG - so without any flavour mixed in. (I get my own PG at a lót lower price still from another source though).
Whether flavoured PG or pure PG... you can use these to mix with your 24mg liquid. If you put 50% Bickford (pure or flavoured) PG in a bottle; and then add 50% of your 24mg liquid; the endresult will be liquid that is 12 mg; and is or isn't flavoured depending on which you put in with it.
If you put 75% Bickford and 25% of the 24 mg liquid, you end up with 6 mg liquid. And so on... so you can make your own strength that way.
Hope that answers your question?

Oh nederlands!

Leuk.

Thank you, I want to try that, plain tobacco taste is getting boring.

Also I think the bottles will last longer when you add flavors to them.

Hoi!

accordeur, I only see flavors on Bickford's site- am I missing something? Can't find the PG- also Amazon has pure PG for animal use (they use it on the utters of milkin cows I guess- woudl this stuff not be the same stuff? Or perhaps too powerful? It's certainly not foodgrade-

[Nazareth]

One ,more question for hte experts- how do you cook down tobacco for makin smokin juice? And, aren't all the dangerous chemicals in the tobacco? If so, wouldn't this get transfered to the smokin juice & cause some of the same dangers as regular smoking?

Hoi!

hallo!

You have to ask Bickford specifically for the PG, it's not something they usually sell. I put in my order by phone.

For the smoking juice. All the bad chemicals in cigarettes are due to combustion. Not a problem with e-smoking. Just simmer tobacco and water, filter with a coffee filter, and then simmer some more until it thickens. You will have to experiment. I have no clue how much nicotine is left, but it seems to work.

Thanks Accordeur- I'll give the simmer technique a try today- will have to wait on the Bickerman's PG- We've got a discussion goign on in the health and medical issues forum about possible alternatives to PPG- I tried just the tiniest dab of Mineral oil on my Cart filter and just a word to the wise- don't ever do that- Yuck Yuck and double Yuck- Now even my regular Carts have a funky taste that about gags me- but it'll wear off eventually- oh well- nothign ventured nothign gained I guess

Does anyone know where you can buy the little brown bottles for the juice?

I found them online but then you have to buy one hundred or more.
