|  All good info. The only note I'll add is how MUCH homebrew you end up with after a few cooking experiments! Oh my. I have enough to last a lifetime, sealed in Bell fruit jars and kept in the refrigerator. Not much is used when combined with VG, Bickford and E-Liquid, so it lasts a long, long time. I actually dumped down the sink many of my first attempts that didn't produce a good taste. |

| Lol- it's easy enough to cook down Karen- takes only abotu 20 minutes or so- I know TB uses a quite small pot with lid, but I just simmer mine in a small but larger pot than TB as I don't have a really small pot to cook in- I just stick it on stove, come out ot computer while it simmers- check it a few times to see if htere's enough water still (only use a small amount of water so as it'll be denser consistency when it cooks down), and then strain it out and refridgerate it- very simple to do- and I shoudl know because I can't even cook an egg right lol |

how you tried cooking it several times and straining several times to try and get as pure as possible Naz? or just cooking it once and putting in the fridge?

| I've done multiple re-cooks, but we just have no way of knowing the nic content, so what's the point? I wish for a magic strip I could dampen with the fluid and it would read 15mg or something. But I have no idea how much nicotine I cook out. Someone suggested evaporating more water, to create a denser viscosity, more syrup like. That seems like a sure atomizer killer to me. I aim for a consistency only slightly denser than water, but definitely not thick and syrupy. Just my take. |

| I only cook mine once and like Nazareth, I strain it twice through coffee filters. Now I am going to try less water like he suggested to see if I like it better. |
