I know that PGA can be added to e-liquid, some vendors probably do this and many flavorings contain it. I'm not planning on trying it, but the contest I just ran made me wonder... do any vendors or DIY folks add booze to their e-liquid? A few drink type e-liquids insinuate as much. I hope this isn't the wrong place to ask, but you're pretty well versed in this subject, GMO. If I'm out of place I'll edit this out...

    I'm in and yes I do have a DIY that calls for PGA but it's just to get it to mix and the steeping removes it :D

    Well, PGA is great for flavor extraction, some flavorings come in PGA instead of PG/VG, ethyl maltol is best in PGA (by "best" I mean most easily soluble), and some people use PGA to thin their VG liquids and for added throat hit. So I would say yes, I'm sure some vendors are using PGA in their juices. I don't think, however, that they are using booze as a flavoring by itself. There are plenty of booze flavors from companies that are more suitable for use to make a liquid taste like a given cocktail.

    Given the "allergies" of many people to PG, many flavoring companies are using alcohol as a medium for their flavorings. You can then have a juice which is "100%" VG!. Personally, I like keeping alcohol to a minimum.
    I do have some booze flavorings like Bourbon, Vodka, Rum etc. I don't think using real booze as a flavoring would be effective.

    G'Day Tree People! Well I made it to work on time this morning after less than 3hrs sleep. I hope everyone has a Great Day out in the Forest!

    My M16 Sentinel Clone should be delivered today so I should have a new shiny toy to play with when I get home. It will make the last few hours of work drag by thou. I hope it works as well as the regular Sentinel clone I already have.
