Backwoods brew ordering thread

[juicejunky]

I quit smoking once with Nicorette gum and then off the gum by first spacing the gum out, then cutting the 2 mg in half, then spacing those, then weaning myself off them all together. All the drops in nicotine and eventually stopping was fairly easy compared to stopping the initial smoking for the gum, no matter how many pieces I stuffed in my mouth.

I think if you go slow enough like Sashwa's plan it would be fairly painless. I think a quick drop from 12 mg to 0 your body would notice.

Sashwa why don't you order no nic BWB juice and mix it with the 12mgs?

 

[sashwa]

I thought about that but it gets to be a pain when doing that as I lose count. I also thought maybe someone else would like these. If I have no takers then I'll probably get some 0mg and do that. What I really should have done was gotten little bottles of the 12mg rather than the big ones. One of the reasons for the big ones was that I didn't realize the 12mg would taste so bad to me now. I know it's not Don's juices but me as I've been using his juices at starting at 12mg since since September almost exclusively.

Can someone give me some advice on the best delivery device combination for MALTY??

I didn't realize until after I received it and read here that it is only 30%PG, so it doesn't wick well for me in a clearomizer and I've found that cartos don'r work as well with high VG mixtures either.

I really like the taste but was wondering how you guys get the best performance with it - dripping? A certain type of carto - what??

TIA for any advice as I'd like to try the Malty Toffee also and understand it is high VG also.

Sashwa,
What do you have? I don't have anything to trade, but I might be interested in purchasing something from you.

The flavor is pretty good in KR808 Coolcarts and Boge 3.0s on a 5V PT. I have to spin the juice into them to get the juice to wick down the first time, but works well refilling afterward.

Malty is excellent dripped on my 306LR attys on a 1000 ego-T battery.

You could also dilute with a few drops PGA or distilled water. Malty also plays well with most other flavors to create new flavors like your own version of Malty Toffee.

JJ is right i put some in an 808 boge carto for my brother and his wife to try..checked it first just to make sure how it would taste and wick and took it to them and they loved it.....BTW I loaded the carto and let it sit for about 2 hours before even attaching it to anything...let the juice settle a bit maybe that will help.

You got that right, ejoker. The 12mg even makes me queasy on top of not tasting good. I know it's me and not Don's juices because I use to like them at 12mg. I'm kicking myself for not getting small bottles to test out this experiment. Sometimes I can be so dipsy.

 

[JB911]

i started at around 24mg, and cut down regularly. the hardest drop was from 6mg to zero, i bounced back n forth for awhile. i can't say for certain if it was a nic dependency, or just a mental block, but eventually it took. as i decreased nic, so went the TH. sometimes i would use additives for extra TH, but eventually realized that was a mental thing, and i didn't need it at all.

that said, there are some juices that have a natural TH - the obvious one being strong cinnamon. i find (and some others have as well) that some of bwb juices have a natural TH, those being ry4 and ejoker blend, and to a lesser extent casablanca. i've not tried all of don's wares, but would imagine most of his tobacco's would carry a modicum of TH as well. mind you, not like you would get from nic, but satisfying enough for me and the people i know who use 0nic.

i've had some nic juice lately, and i can tell you i no longer care for either the flavor or the feeling of nicotine. for me, nic actually detracts from flavor enjoyment. and vaping for me is all about flavor and vapor.

i don't discourage those who use/enjoy nic to keep on keeping on, but if you're interested in dropping/cutting your nic usage - its not nearly as hard as quitting tobacco.

Thanks for posting that ejoker. Very encouraging. Not feeling so reluctant to continue reducing the nic level. The first stop on this vaping journey was quitting analogs. Anywhere else it takes me I'm ready.

JB, I sent you the link. They are in the swap thread in the BWB Crew forum. I want to swap not sell, sorry.

I'm vaping regular Malty right now on a BOGE 510 carto. The juice is very thick, but it's wicking fine. I filled the carto slowly, then let it sit for 10 minutes before using. I really want to try some in my Go-Go 3ml carto, but I'm not sure if it will work as well. It's funny, but I always thought Malty and Malty Toffee were 70/30 PG/VG like all the other BWB liquid. I always wondered why they produced so much more vapor than the others!

My sole reason for vaping was to quit smoking and stay that way. I started out at 36mg and could vape that all day and all night without any adverse effects...at all. It worked great. I quit on vape day 2. I win.

I am not concerned at this time at making attempts and struggle to reduce nicotine intentionally. I smoked for 40+ years and have only been an ex-smoker for a little over 4 months. To me, that is a bare pittance to the length of time I smoked.
If and when I cut down on nicotine, it will be another improvement. At present, I want to stay free of cigarettes, so I am not going to worry about how or if or when I should cut back on nicotine.

I do not vape at 36mg nicotine all the time. Some vendors do not sell 36mg, so I do 24mg and I can't say I notice anything, just like I didn't notice anything at 36mg either, except it enabled me to get off cigarettes.
If I have to do 24+ nicotine for the next ? period of time, I will remain being the winner still if that's what it takes to stay off cigarettes.
Some do it quick, some don't. I quit fast I think. Some still haven't quit completely. I feel pretty sure I quit on day 2 of vaping was because I started out at 36mg. If 36mg nicotine didn't affect me like it does some, I doubt using lesser strengths would have enabled me to quit as fast as I did.

YMMV applies to so many things in our lives. What works for you is what works for you, and it's a good thing.
I just want all of us to stay off cigarettes for the rest of our lives. Whatever it takes - we should do it.

This is my goal. Remain an ex-smoker. I'm on the downside curve of life now, and I want to get the most out of it smoke free.

I want that for you too...

Carry on Crew...

That's the ticket Rosco. And quitting analogs is like getting the "Golden One". For me, it was...Step 1-Quit smoking regular cigarettes completely. and Step 2-Now that I have, just continue Step 1 ! That was my goal. I did it!, I WIN !!!! Have a good weekend Ros, and Crew.

Samsmom, all BWB juices are a 70/30 PG/VG mix, per Don himself. Check the website. That includes the Malty and Malty Toffee.

If your Malty seems thick, then maybe there something wrong with it? Is it thicker than other juices? I've been using the Malty for awhile; it's my favorite, really, and it was never thick.

I use it in cartomizers and in the eGo-t tanks, both standard and LR, where it really shines.

Where did you get the information that the Malties are high VG? Did Don change the formula?

It isn't a frickin sprint to 0 nic...there is no prize when you get there.

Don posted his ratio on the Malty's Katya, a few pages back
