You know...

Vanilla and coffee extracts TEMPORARILY may not do any damage...but it really depends on the stuff.

Flavoring manufacturers extract specific flavor chemicals (molecules), either from the actual thing, or they make them synthetically. And then they put them into a base. Some are OK to vape, some are not. Some specialize in vaping flavors.

Bottom line is...this kind of experimentation is a bit reckless. It may not have hurt you...but...I know that coffee beans contain some oil for example. And vanilla extracts could have other stuff in them (natural sugars?) or whatever.

I don't recommend this at all. At least not without reading up real well in the DIY section of the forum.

Just say'n so you guys stay safe. I'd rather see you get a disposable at the corner gas, smoke a stinky or use some lozenges or whatever. Read up well.

i have been reading.

I used artificial vanilla which is not oil based, and the coffee was a simple alcohol/coffee extractive (in other words its strong coffee made with alcohol instead of water).

Both are very aromatic and safe for inhalation.

Artificial vanilla is actually much cleaner then natural vanilla, vanilla was on of the first organic molecules that was successfully fully synthesized from non organic compounds for commercial use.

Well, that clarifies it some. Thx. Not real vanilla, not water based coffee extract (the alcohol dissolves the oils to some extent. Still not sure). Still... As a general caution...read up! :)

Also, the DIY section contains a list of common candy flavoring used (called 'oils' even they they have no oil). Some LorAnn flavorings are commonly available and vapable as far as we know.
