Is it possible if the liquid itself doesnt include alcohol. I know there's a lot but without any alcohol in the ingredient.

No it's not, as far as I know... PG (alcohol), VG (alcohol), flavorings (alcohol), sweetener (alcohol). I have no idea what to tell you, everything you eat or drink on a daily basis has some form of alcohol in it (except for distilled water). Alcohol is a really generic term. Again if you are referring to the alcohol that people drink to get drunk... That is Ethyl Alcohol (Ethanol), and an abstinence from that is possible, just difficult.

Yes. What i meant is the alcohol where ppl get drunk. Thats possible right not to be included in a flavour?
 
I have 5 years of sobriety myself. I tried a friends home made PG free liquid that was made with VG and PGA (Pure Grain Alcohol), and it did not effect me in any way. The quantity that you are ingesting is very small. There is in fact small amounts of alcohol in many things that you would never know. Coke and Pepsi, for example, contain very small amounts of alcohol.

If you're concerned about alcohol, one thing you can do is steep your juices for a couple days with the caps off, shaking a them a few times a day. Alcohol evaporates very quickly, and this will get out most (if not all) of the alcohol used in the flavorings.

Thats awesome!! Congrats on 25 yrs and you probably just really helped others that were too afraid to ask or admit being an alcoholic and had the same concerns. :thumbs:

Yep. I have been sober for 14 years and was always afraid to ask that. But no, I cannot tell if there is alcohol in the juice either.

Would the alcohol in the juices be strong enough to trip the ultra sensitive drug tests given by parole or probation?

I'm no expert here but I would think it would be no worse than vanilla, cooking wine, or sweetners in food. They don't come up in drug tests. But you bring up a good point, and I would just tell them before hand that I vaped.
