Hello!
I thought I would post this because I think I have thought of a great method for making really good e-liquid. A while ago I was curious of ways to extract nicotine from tobacco, but I found that a lot of people where very cautious of doing that sort of thing. So eventually I did find a way, safe in doing so? Most likely yes! But to a certain degree. What I found out Googling different ways of doing it, I found out just adding plain water to tobacco would make a sort of liquid tobacco solution.
For 24 hours I had soaked water in natural Canadian tobacco (I did some research and found that most Canadian tobacco is additive free which was good to find out.) in a salt shaker and then I squeezed out the solution out
of the salt shaker and using a coffee filter, filtered out all of the liquid.
I ended up with 25 ml of tobacco liquid extract.
I was a little scared handling it since nicotine is a dangerous substance I even heard that I could die even touching pure nicotine.
So yes I was a brave boy and went with my instincts that the solution was not going to be concentrated enough to do harm to me, the conclusion was I did spill some of the extract on my hands and did not harm me in any way.
The solution was very black and that was from about 10 cigarettes of tobacco filled to the top in a salt shaker filled with water to the top soaked
for 24 hours. (though if someone where to try this I wouldn't go more than 24 hours since the longer the water is soaking in the tobacco it would make a much more concentrated solution of nicotine.
So how did it taste? was there a hit?
The taste was not a tobacco taste, it tasted like something dry.
The nicotine hit? It was and seemed to be the same as a normal cigarette.
But I just smoked a real cigarette before I inhaled from the e-smoke, I could
have been experiencing the after effects of the real one.
I did not have any vegetable glycerin but I did order from Ebay a two ounce bottle of it for it to have simulated smoke, that I plan to test again and mix the glycerin with my 25 ml tobacco extract, I don't know what would be a good measurement, maybe 25 ml of the tobacco extract and 10 ml of vegetable glycerin, I think I might add a couple drops of vanilla extract to the mix.
Hopefully! When I receive the rest of ingredients in the mail and then mix it I will have a cheap and affordable way of a great DIY e-liquid.
So, stay tuned! It may be a week or so when I get the stuff in the mail.
I will post the conclusion of this experiment in this thread within that time!
Cheers!
