    vanilla extract?

    Now, here is the MSDS on ethyl vanillin which, along with other vanilla extractives, is known to be used by commercial manufacturers of e-liquid. http://www.sciencelab.com/xMSDS-Ethyl_vanillin-9924002 So, it appears that if you want that delicious vanilla flavor you also must accept that all...

    Liqueur Flavoring Essences

    Naturally, the discovery that high fructose corn syrup is used in the ones you've examined is disappointing. It would be nice to be able to find some justification to suggest that this and the caramel coloring in the amounts we would use would not present a significant problem for the atomizers...

    Does anybody know where to find tobacco flavored flavoring?

    Rob got an answer for us and wrote me back today. The absolute that is used in this flavoring is a Tobacco Absolute Oriental. This is really wonderful to have a such a great source of tobacco flavoring and now we know which one of the three varieties it is we're working with here. The other...

    vanilla extract?

    Sun, the document you pointed to does indeed provide information that advises caution. From reading it, one might get the impression that it was referring to something other than a commonly used flavoring ingredient, a toxic poison. But before everyone gets it in their head from this that...

    vanilla extract?

    OUCH! I wasn't in the least inclined to follow up on this, but yes, I'll respond to that. I just copied and pasted a quote from somewhere on here and from someone. I didn't even know who made that post. I've seen two or three similar references and so it seems that hearsay and rumor can...

    Lemon Juice And Salt Test

    Based on user reports so far it has been my intention to heat a solution of lemon juice and salt for cleaning, with the idea in mind of the test reported of how salt on a soldering iron in some way prevented further accumulations of build up. It has been my intention to get some citric acid...

    vanilla extract?

    PURE VANILLIN CRYSTALS Ethyl vanillin is actually what is used in the manufacture of our commercial e-liquids often in combination with some other form of a vanilla extractive. If anyone considers trying the vanillin crystals let me know. If it's in the pure crystal form it seems to me that...

    Liqueur Flavoring Essences

    Somebody posted somewhere on the forum (without knowing what they were even talking about): "The artificial vanilla flavor (often referred to as vanillin) is a benzaldehyde which some feel presents a health hazard, although there is debate on the matter. Safety (MSDS) data for vanillin" The...

    Does anybody know where to find tobacco flavored flavoring?

    THIS E-LIQUID FLAVORING "TOBACCO FLAVOR" I emailed the company days ago asking them to clarify more specifically what this product is in contrast to, say, a tobacco absolute and also requested mixing instructions. They never responded. The product I received is a mostly clear liquid, slightly...

    Liqueur Flavoring Essences

    I'm glad you're brave enough to give them a try! I only use Firefox so I can't say about the drop down box. I believe UPS introduced a policy years ago that added a surcharge for residences and I don't know if that is still current policy. I always go with the post office where I can. When I...

    Inhaling Flavouring Chemicals

    Let's try to think about flavors with butter in them that have nothing to do with a certain Utah politician! My suggested list may be far from comlete.

    Inhaling Flavouring Chemicals

    Why Kate! You're home! And welcome back. Of course it's good to see you on here again. Like many, you were among the first that I encountered always helpful to point out information of important concern to newbees and always mindful of issues that the uninformed need to be concerned about...

    Liqueur Flavoring Essences

    To be honest with you, as someone new to e-smoking, I've already spent about $175.00 this month out of a fairly limited budget. My next purchase will be vanillin crystals at one of the local Greek markets if available or I may need to purchase it off the web. I would also like to begin...

    Does anybody know where to find tobacco flavored flavoring?

    First question. In the tiny quantities used, the oil, being unavoidable, must be acceptable, as this is a variety of the exact same tobacco flavoring as being used by commercial manufacturers. Others have argued very small quantities of oil should not be considered troubling, for example 1...

    Does anybody know where to find tobacco flavored flavoring?

    From his previous post which linked to one specific product, it appears that Nuck ordered the Nicotiana Rustica (Indian Tobacco - Wild Tobacco) instead of the Nicotiana Tabacum (Virginia?) in spite of my discussions concerning it not being the variety used by commercial e-manufacturers. I assume...

    Tobacco Flavorings and Enhancers?

    Great find! If we truly want our juice to taste like real tobacco flavoring then we need to consider other alternatives. Right now Johnson Creek is doing a heck of a job on the two flavors they custom manufacture which proves it is possible. But they are the only one doing it and are having...

    Liqueur Flavoring Essences

    Most of the ones I've seen are light in color, this in itself argues against the use of artificial colorants. There may be some additives in certain of the products you probably would not want, such as oak flavoring. But these are only in the ones that are designed for hard alcohol (distilled...
