This is basically my goal... have a morning/before work NET which will stave off nic cravings for approx. 2 to 4 hours at a time.

One of the good things about being retired, I can enjoy my NETs anytime I want without a care in the world.

Don't mean to derail this thread, but heck, it is essentially about extracted tobacco...

I was just curious... Have any of you NET heads tried WTA with your NET. I'm about to give Om Vapor and Mothers Milk WTA a go to see if it is "all that and a bag of chips". ;)
With my NET, no. In addition to my NET's, yes!

I have a seperate tank of unflavored WTA. I add 10% WTA, mixed to my normal nic strength of 6mg/ml. I'll take a few hits from it here and there throughout the day as needed. Or sometimes chain vape it, if NEEDED!

I'd been vaping about 6-8 months when I first started using it and found that it greatly helped with the cognitive/emotional issues I was having at the time. Got away from it for about 18 months and recently (2-3 months ago) realized that I was having those same issues again. Ordered some more and things are better now.

For those of us that need it, it's a Godsend. For those that don't, I doubt they will feel the same effect. Maybe some, but not to the same degree. I've postulated that those of us that it helps the most are perhaps mildly bipolar, and the WTA levels things out for us.

I can't speak to the manufactures that you mentioned as I've not tried them. However, Aroma Ejuice is "all that and a bag of chips". :) For me anyhow. ;)

Please let us know how it works for you.

Your reply sent me on the wonderful journey of researching nicotine in the nootropic arena. There is some very interesting reading material out there concerning this topic.

I'm glad you found WTA beneficial. I will certainly pass along my findings.

Please do. :thumb:

Also, while you are researching, you might look in to Ashwagandha and Rhodiola.

While WTA helps to establish my emotional base line, Ashwagandha and Rhodiola (taken together in the AM) give me a "leg up". I don't take them that often as I like to stay as close to that base line as possible. However, they work wonders if I've been especially stressed or know that I'm going to have a stress filled day.

As time passes....progress is made...... at least for NETs!
Filtered and mixed the Billy Bud and Acadian Perique tobaccos. The Back Down South tobacco needs more time but its progressing.
As far as my everyday NETs; they just seem to get better. The ryeback, still "grassy", has meloed out. Cohiba still a rich cigar flavor is even richer with more depth. LA Red and Nightcap, beyond excellent.
Just my :2c:
Your milage may vary.

In a somewhat extraordinary and unexpected development Scott Gottlieb, the newly appointed head of FDA, has announced that the submission deadline for PMTAs is to be delayed until 2022.
This is a de-facto endorsement of the vaping industry and heads off the cataclysmic demise that was set in motion by the previous administration. :rickroll::toast:

Testing, as we all do or that's what I call it when it's hard to wait, Billy Budd. The flavor is already good even after a week steep. Getting a Virginia, burly with a light cigar flavor. Reminds me of my Ohm natural and burley light w/o bite but mixed with a touch of cohiba. This one, with age, will be a winner.
Sorry no update for the A. Perique just mixed. 2 more weeks extraction time for the back down south tobacco.
Only problems I've ran into extracting tobacco flavor is having to buy extra 120ml bottles and more RTAs. I use 2 120ml bottles for each extract (ageing/steep) and need 1 RTA for same flavor mix.

A temporary reprieve, but one that will allow many current smokers the opportunity to discover vaping the way I (we) did. State governments are now the greatest short term threat but I suspect $$$ (taxes) will be what most of them seek to obtain. Taxes won't close the door, just makes it more expensive to open. Face-2-Face purchase requirements and/or limitations on nic strength/flavors are a different story but I don't believe many states will choose to journey down those paths.

In addition to vaping, I believe pipe tobacco and cigars are also spared (temporarily) which is good news for home extractors. Also means NET retailers should be around for a few more years granting those who love it (but don't want to make it themselves) more time to enjoy the true tobacco flavor only NET offers.

If you read the comments made by Scott Gottlieb when he announced this reprieve, it becomes obvious he understands that vaping is -far less- harmful than smoking. Hopefully by 2022 the government will come to it's senses and abandon its corrupt/misguided war against the best smoking cessation method available.

Str8vision,
I (as others) would like to see a list of tobaccos that have been extracted and have passed the "best flavor extraction" placed on this thread say every 25 pages. On every 25 (or more your choice ur op) each of us can list their best tobaccos making them much easier to find and help with future picks/purchases. Page 75 is coming up!
This is just a thought. If a problem with or too much work ect. I totally understand. I had to ask, sorry.

I agree! There is some really great information in this whole forum, but it can be really difficult and/or time consuming to go through everything to try to RE-FIND some of the little "gems of knowledge" or recommendations that I have found along the way. I'm not sure if there is an easy solution. What I would really like is to be able to highlight the things that I know I will want to go back and refer to later, and when I log onto the site, my computer remembers what I highlighted. Is there any way to bookmark specific posts within the forum?
Anyway, lots of great stuff... thanks to all

I've discovered one for the "list"... Daughters & Ryan ~ Ramback Balkan.

It has just surpassed my most of my "Turkish style" NETs thus far to date; very nice and complex ADV for me.
-------
Ramback Balkan

Oriental
Turkish
Virginia
(Non-Aromatic)

Ramback tobaccos are highlighted by the use of hearty and fragrant Turkish leaf, expertly blended for balance and richness. Try the exotic flavor of these hard-to-find tobaccos and see why Ramback is so popular. Ramback Balkan is a mixture of Balkan Oriental and Balkan Virginia leaves, with Yenidje and Basma tobaccos added for a tangy, spicy note.
------
This was a heat assisted PG solvent NET extraction. I highly recommend this tobacco to those looking for a NET with great character.

I did a quick search for that last night but couldn't find it. Thanks!
No problem! I'm more than happy for you or anyone else to add tobaccos or comments and repost it at any point... I'm sure there have been some great discoveries in the 6 months since it was put together :)
