After a few weeks of experimenting, i have found, what i believe, is quite possibly the best extraction for nicotine and tobacco flavoring. maybe not the most effecient, but it is perfect because it can be done with extremely easy to find products. and the method is relatively simple.
Step 1: Go to your pharmacy, ask if they have propylene glycol. walgreens works fine. should be around 10 dollars for a pint for USP grade. or, if you want a LOT of it, go to a TSC, they sell a gallon of it for 24 dollars. most of you have already done this if you've DIY'd liquid before.
Step 2: Go to...pretty much any gas station. get a product called Camel Snus. it's little packets of tobacco wrapped in paper. should be no more than 5 dollars. i used the mellow flavor, but i'm sure the mentol kind works too.
Step 3: Obtain a 1.5 Oz shotglass (standard size)
Step 4: Obtain either saran wrap, or a ziplock bag. i would reccomend the saran wrap personally.
Step 5: Fill the shotglass with about 1.3 Oz of PG.
Step 6: add 1 packed of snus to the PG. there are 15 packets in a tin, so this can be done multiple times.
Step 7: cover the shotglass with your saran wrap, or put it in a ziplock back. we're just trying to avoid contact with oxygen here. while i don't know if oxygen would actually mess anything up, oxygen likes to mess pretty much all chemicals up, so lets play it safe.
step 8: let the shotglass sit for about 2 hours.
step 9: remove the saran wrap, or take it out of the plastic bag.
step 10: Using a pencil, or anything else long and thin, press down on the packet to get any extra nicotine out while in the shotglass. don't worry about it ripping, those packets are actually pretty tough. i think it's the same stuff they use for teabags.
step 11: take the packet out, bend it in half, then squeeze the packet above the shotglass to get all the extra pg/nicotine out.
step 12: mix around the new solution in the shotglass, then vape it and enjoy!
The results are great. it actually tastes like a real cigarette. i was smoking just the solution alone, and i love it more than any liquid i've had before. it really tastes like tobacco. i mixed some lorann's into it as well, still tasted great.
this method is more for the tobacco flavoring. while it does excrete a little bit of nicotine, it would probably be best to mix your own nicotine solution into it...unless you're looking for an extremely low dose of nicotine.
there you have it folks. 6-12 months worth of smoking for under 20 dollars. (e-cig supplies not included )
