Thumbs down what do you strain your homecooked juice with

I wish I had a video camera to show the vapor- it's a lot and it lasts a long time by dripping both the carts and the atomizer- I think the key to my vapor is that I'm using about 50% Glycerin, 50% PG for my main mix, which I then use about 80% of that PG/Glycerin mix to 20% of my cooked down tobacco juice- the only thing though is that this vapor does linger in the air a bit longer than normal prefilled Cart vapor does as it's got more glycerin which produces a bit heavier type vapor. I do have to double-draw, as it seems this mix requires a little bit hotter atomizer for a good vapor cloud though, but no big deal for me- just gotta keep batteries fairly fresh for a bit easier draw.

Uncle- I had one do that on me too- I tried simmering it in water with a dab of baking soda, and that didn't seem to help, and I thought the atomizer was kaput- then for the hay of it I soaked it in hydrogen peroxide, rinsed, blew the excess out from the top, and it started workign quite well again after I primed it with some glycerin drops- not saying htis will work for yours, but it might be worth a last ditch effort try if nothign else works for ya.
hello naz been wanting to make my own smoke juice but read elsewhere that there might b particles in the home made tobacoo juice. what do you use to strain it with?

Hi Values, I just use a coffee filter and let it drip through- I don't try to force it through by squashing it in the filter or anything- I haven't had a problem with it so far- but if you want ot be extra careful, run hte filtered juice htrough another filter after- I've been dripping for abotu a week now & no problems so far- You jusyt gotta make sure you have enough Glycerin in the mix as the glycerin is thicker, and helps to thicken the whole lot so it won't be so thin that it won't atomize right, plus hte thicker liquid stays in the cart longer and won't have tendancy to run down into battery as much
