You can make a coffe concentrate using Tasters Choice singles. You'll have to add some sucralos(or other) sweetener to it. But it does work. I mix @5ml of very hot water w/ one packet. Gets you a nice amount of concentrate, then you can mix that w/ VG. JFYI, you'll need to let it rest a couple days and use an eye dropper to pull the liquid off of residue on the bottom of the bottle of concentrate before mixing. Works OK, but don't expect a HUGE amount of caffine.
You can buy pure caffeine powder. The FDA considers it a food additive so there are no regulations on it. Here's one of the many websites that sells it. (picked by random!)
Bulk Caffeine Powder Extract
Caffeine melts at a temperature between the boiling points of PG and VG so it might work....

Interesting. That really bugs me though, the FDA wants to ban nic juice, but somehow they are OK w/ pure caffine which is about 1/10th as potent as co**ine! Dangerous stuff. But I might have to get some lol.
If raw caffeine was popular enough one of two things would happen. The government would institute a caffeine "sin tax" or it would be outlawed. It's all about the money.

Just in case anyone wants to try getting a caffeine buzz with vaping I'll repost this old info here:
Solubility of caffeine in water per wikipedia -
22 mg·mL***8722;1 (25 °C)
180 mg·mL***8722;1 (80 °C)
670 mg·mL***8722;1 (100 °C)
So at boiling point that's 670mg per mL or 33mg per drop.
At room temp (25C) 1.1mg per drop.
Given a around 30-50mg per average beverage thats between 1-2+mL you would need to vape to get a reasonable "fix."
That is 1-2mL you would need to vape just to equal 1 cup of coffee or tea! Better to just vape some nice coffee or caramel juice and suck down a few steamy espresso.

The delivery methods are different. When drinking coffee the caffeine is absorbed in the digestive tract. When vaped it's through the lungs. I have no idea if that makes a difference, just thought I would bring it up.
Decadent Vapours do a Doppio Expresso. I mix it with State Express it's a fantastic morning vape. When you get the bottle you can see the crystals of caffine in the bottom of the bottle.

I'm assuming you're referring to Totally Wicked's Decadent Vapour line...in which case, anyone interested might want to note that they have discontinued this line. Stock up while you can. That's why all the DV stuff is on sale right now. As soon as the current stock is sold, that's it. It's gone.
I was quite disappointed when I found out, myself (in an email from Customer Service). I love the DV Lychee and Parma Violet.
Very true. Digestion likely decompses the caffine some, and as you say, through the lungs it goes right into the blood. Likely works better, just like when "other ilicet" alkaloids are digested it has a much weaker effect than it does smoking it. I'll be interested to see how this goes for you. BTW, I used to eat Zingers caffinated mints when I was working 12hr shifts a while back. I got everyone in the office hooked on them for a while. Label said 3 tablets had the equivelent to 1 cup of coffee, but the effect of chewing them and getting concentrated caffine in direct contact with the mouth and under the tounge(blood vessels very close to the surface), was much stronger than drinking one cup of coffee. It wasn't just me who noticed that, everyone in the office said that chewing one mint was equal to at least 1 cup of coffee. LUK how you progress, I may follow your lead.
OP, as far as receiving caffeine via inhalation...you might want to research it before you go and try it. I know very little about the subject other than that it is possible, and inhalation of caffeine is the quickest way to get it into your bloodstream aside from IV use. Therefore, you should probably be careful with such an experiment...trust me...overdose on stimulants is NOT pleasant. Been there, done that.
If I were you and didn't want to go the drink a cup of coffee/energy drink/whatever route, I'd grab a bottle of caffeine-containing energy pills (I'd also recommend avoiding any that contain yohimbe, as there is a very fine line between the right dose and overdose with that...it can cause some very unpleasant symptoms like tremors, hot flashes, cold sweats, chill bumps, nausea, along with more serious ones) and swallow the recommended dose of those. They usually kick in pretty quick. If you want to know some that I've tried and recommend, feel free to PM me...I've tried quite a few.

That does seem the case in the US but they will continue to sell it in the UK.
This is all great!
I didn't imagine it would spark so many interests
OK, so who wants to be the guinea pig?

That's on you dude. The one who smelt it dealt it. lol
Aye, I'm afraid they're rationalising their stocklines and discontinuing the premixed DV juices in the US, but all the concentrates and Platinum Ice will still be stocked in the US. And all the DV range products should remain in the UK AFAIK.
Alas, that will make your caffeinated juices weaker I'm afraid - the DE premix is 2.5% and the concentrate is 5% caffeine (unfortunately if I mix the concentrate any stronger than that, it would turn into a single bottle-shape crystal, and you'd have to gouge chunks off it
)(declaration of vested interest in the subject matter - yes, I make the stuff
