[QUOTE="bombastinator, post: 23718368, member: 43994"] It’s…. Ok. A $10 jewelers scale on Amazon kinda crushes it. Get one that calibrates and calibrate it. The big thing is no oils. Any oils. No cinnamon oil, no citrus oils, no diacetyl, etc.. “natural flavoring” is crap. “Natural” just means naturally sourced. The chemical is the same. FDA baking flavors without oils in them. For flavorings that you aren’t sure are oil free paper chromatography can be used to test. It’s easy. You can read about it on the internet. The most technologically complicated part is a clothes pin. Ever left a piece of toilet paper half it-half out of the bowl and a few days later capillary action has gotten the entire piece wet? Even the part that never touched water? That’s how it works. It will do it for about 30 feet. Oil is lighter than water. Cinnamon and butter are generally out. You need a high ceiling. Stairwells are handy. You cut the bands with scissors and test those. Or you just buy baking flavors that won’t break down with heat you know have no oils in them. Theres also an argument for avoiding menthol. [/QUOTE]
