Does this look right? *pictures*

So I was trying to create a menthol based flavor and started by using a few Menthol Crystals (5 or 6 crystals) and then poured a little Sky Vadka into a shot glass and mixed them together. Well I left it there over night and the next morning the alcohol was just about gone and all was left was this stuff that resembled something like white Coral climbing up the shot glass. is this stuff same in our lungs?

Here you can see it climbing up the shot glass. I only used a little vodka which was below this white stuff.

Here is what it looks like outside of the shot glass.

Too much crystals and they are recrystallizing, no big deal.

Or it is ALIVE!

So whats a good ratio to use for say a half a shot glass of vodka?

Thanks Father Luke. I just tried a new batch and mixed it with a folk and a few seconds it crystallized on the folk. I used a dropper to transfer to my VG mix and now I have a white fill inside my dropper bottle within seconds. so is this stuff safe to put in your lungs? (relatively speaking)

I guess I've been around the internet too long, I was expecting something much different.

Not sure if it's not good for the lungs or not but it sure taste damn good! Just vaped on it and it was better then I expected it to be. Can anyone chime in on weather or not vaping on these crystals will do some major damage on your lungs?

Compared to the four packs of Lucky straights I used to smoke,
I'd say relatively speaking I'm in better shape, yeah.

Just a thought: seeing how 'white' that residue is, and from what you are saying about the speed of the re-crystaliszation..... are you sure that you are using pure menthol crystals? You can buy some non-pure crystals that are coated with wax, and the picture and your description just makes me wonder if it's wax that you have there.

yeah pretty sure it's the same stuff everyone else is buying theirs from on ebay. MENTHOL CRYSTALS 2 Ounces oz Mentha arvensis 100% pure
I just don't want to be smoking this for a year and finding out this stuff is just building up in my lungs. I mean it left somewhat of a white film on the inside of my dropper when adding this stuff to my carts... What really sucks is that I'm using zero nic to try and reduce the health risks. Just wish we had a solid 'yes these crystals are fine in moderation' or 'no, the stuff will kill ya'.

I've never had the problems with menthol you have.
Then again I use the menthol sparingly.

Menthol is the solid constituent of oil of mint.
Even oxygen will kill you in too great a quantity.

Hope that helps.
