Cold maceration of tobacco
I'm with you Ian. Reo, RDA, and cotton wick is my best setup for NETs. I look for the least complicated, drama free, and economical means to achieve my desired results and that's a big part of why I started doing room temp soaks and drip filtration.- johni

Natural Tobaccos - Part Deux
Juicy and checkum, thank you for your kind words about my extractions. I'm glad you're enjoying them as that is the ONLY reason I extract and share: enjoyment! Bill, I have no problem setting aside my room temp macerations and letting the process happen over time. I'm amazed at the... -

Every so often since this thread started, speculation pops up about what Perique is, who controls it, how it's processed, etc. Here are the facts: The Mystique of Perique | The #1 Source for Pipes and Pipe Tobacco Information -

I'm not giving up KGD as the two are similar in performance and I've only tried a half dozen or so wicks of cellucotton. Jury is still out.:blink: -
Natural Tobaccos - Part Deux
Haven't posted in a while as my laptop crapped out. I have six room temp macerations working, three pipe blends and three great cigars (thanks checkum!) If the quality of construction and aroma of these cigars are any indication, they will make amazing juice!:D Also trying cellucotton wicks... -

Not sure I fully understand your question. I mix most of my macerations at around 20% to make juice and vape with no added flavoring. Tobacco absolute is extremely concentrated and is mixed with PG, VG, and nicotine base to make juice. You need to do some reading in the DIY forum. It is the... -

Amen and Amen!!! I'm not a huge fan of many Ahlusion juices but realize they are a highly credible vendor that utilizes advanced extraction techniques and respect their innovative approach. I don't think anyone cares whether an individual likes a particular juice or vendor but repeated... -

A smoker doesn't have to be fancy to work well. I've used a lot of different kinds and almost all will do the job once you learn their quirks. Smoked everything from bologna (actually very good) to prime rib! I prefer simple recipes, no long marinating, and few exotic ingredients. -

Filtering to 2.5 micron isn't "messy" at all but it does take a little time. Fine with me. I don't sit there and watch it drip through but I guess if you do it would be "time consuming". -

If you spend some time on pipesandcigars.com reading blend descriptions and reviews, it makes the world of NETs a little easier to understand. Be warned though, the extraction bug may bite ya! -

I'll gladly send you some stuff extracted from Ouelette's fine blends! He recently put together four blends for Missouri Meerschaum, the world's largest and oldest manufacturer of corn cob pipes, located right here in Missouri. I had to order all four so they'll be on my list in the near future.:D -

Cold maceration of tobacco
Paul, I mixed yours at 20% and it's very good. Homemade dog treats! That's genius man, and extraction jars to boot! :thumbs: Eight ml of any NET before gunkage is damn good. I rewick two RDAs daily and don't vape 8 ml in a day.- johni

Pipe tobacco and Cigar extraction
Cigar extract is cleaner than pipe blend extracts in general so I would say Stra8 is right that casing and cut of the tobacco definitely contribute to sediment. I don't believe I lost any flavor potency by filtering my last batch down to 2.5 micron. I filter by gravity alone (no vacuum) and it...- johni

Cold maceration of tobacco
Mike, I'd put some water in those jars and warm them a little in the microwave. Then check for odor or taste. If it's still there it should come forward. Mine had jam in them prior to becoming extraction vessels.- johni

Cold maceration of tobacco
Hi Str8. Hope you like the Virginia Spice as much as I do! It seems that cigars give up their flavor to PG a bit more slowly than pipe tobacco. I did 5 weeks on my last one and will probably do 6 weeks next time but don't have a cigar on deck for a while. I haven't seen anyone post about...- johni
