Background: ex-smokeless myself, wife up to 2 packs/day, ex-users doing the vaping thing. Been dig it longer than wife (using non-tobacco snuff + vaping for nic myself + vaping for wife) but both doing well. Looking into DIY recently, been reading a lot of threads. Wife into Halo juice, especially the minty/menthol flavors plus localish vapeshop flavors, I'm still a little all over the place for flavors. Personally been into homebrewing/distilling over 20 years, so some interst in the DIY (several other areas in the home life DIY also).
In my homebrewing/distilling I repitch/build yeast and have many of the items needed, including multiple stir plates. I brew/distill over 400 gallons a year, so I have a large amount of equipment.
So my question is for those that use stir plates for steep, what is your process? I figure I will use time and temperature in my steeping, I'm guessing there may not be a large amount of difference in my from homebrewing. Making up several 100ml at a time won't be a problem as i have friends who vape and would love for me to blend for them.
So any suggestions on stir plate time, temp controlled steeping times (I do have 3 temp (heat/cool) fermenting boxes at various temp regions), anything you you may be doing would be great. My Christmas request have been for Amazon cards, already have 500ml @ 100mg nic in the freezer ready to go, been through the DIY by weight thread (which makes sense to b=me because of my brewing) and have recipe ideas from the TPA/TFA thread so a shopping list for Wizard Labs. So just needing to order supplies and get some procedure advice before the holidays.
