E liquid flavouring

[SlimReaper]

Ok so ive basically been vaping for a while, I'm currently in the uk. What I want to do is find out if I can make my own flavour concentrates.
So can I get natural mint leaves and make my own e juice? What about getting bits of apple and adding VG and distilled water and make it? Also a bit of a brainwave. Can I melt chocolate, add VG and distilled water and vape it or is too sugary? Let me know guys Ayt thanks love guys xo

Honestly, you should buy flavor concentrates from a vendor who sells them specifically for vaping. You don't want to vape anything that is a oil base or full of sugar. oil not for the lungs, sugar not for the heating coil. Flavors don't cost much and they will make you some great liquids with the right recipe. Good luck

Aren't LorAnn products simply food flavoring?

Wouldn't it be safe to use any type of flavoring as long as it contains ONLY propylene glycol, artificial flavor and maybe alcohol and water?

I would probably try seeping the mint leaves in PG.. not sure about the chocolate and apples!

There must be a way to make your own flavorings. I think it would be pretty cool to make my own.

I don't know if it is true, but I read where you can put a vanilla bean in a bottle of glycerin and after about six week, you can vape it. Is that what they mean when a vender states their juice is organic? Not sure. But good luck on your quest.

I`ve been looking into this as I want to create a few flavours that are not on any list as yet and the best way I can see is to steep the donor material (be they leaves or bits of fruit..whatever) in alcohol (cheap vodka) and leave in a dark cool place for a week or so.

Then allow some of the alcohol to evaporate giving a "reduction" and dilute this concentrate with PG (or VG).
Add to your nic base to taste.

I hav`nt tried this yet but it`s the method I would use and got the info from various websites that use a similar method for making flavouring for culinary use.

A heads up! Depending on your donor material there is bound to be some volatile oils or sugars in there somewhere so it might be an idea to try this on a delivery device that has a poly-pro or pyrex tank, a dripper or a cartomiser to prevent tank cracking and also something that the coil and wick can easily be replaced!
