Humco VG as good as Kosher USP VG?

[Chris863]

I been using Humco Glycerin for the past year and it recently dawned on me... should I be using Kosher? When I first started out mixing I didnt care so much about using the best supplies flavors etc but now that im getting close to running out of VG im wondering if I should stop using the Humco stuff

If anyone is unfamiliar here is a picture of the product....



It is 99.5 percent Vegetable Glycerin as stated on the bottle but for taste and performance would I be better off buying Kosher VG? This Humco stuff for 6 Oz costs about $2.50 at my local grocery store.


Thanks

As long as it's UPS, and it is, you're good to go.

If you're not a religious Jew it doesn't matter. Kosher for glycerin just means that it's vegetable derived. The Humco glycerin is vegetable derived so there's really no difference. Stick to what you've been using. You don't need to pay more for the Kosher designation.

Kosher - it means it was certified as Kosher by corresponding agency. No additional requirements on purity.

Essential depot is running a deal 2 gallons of their kosher VG for 40 buckks with free shipping. That's what I use. It's worth it for the savings. You would spend over 50 dollars for humco VG for one gallon the way you are buying it. You can also pick up a single gallon for around 17 bucks

I found a gallon of Propylene Glycol at the Tractor Supply Store--$ 21.00-----and got me one and still have three quarters of a gallon left.

They say they use this to cure cattle of a sickness called Keytosis.........
