I'm starting to get the idea that using a gennys with NETs is absurd I might get through 1.5 tank before I need to rebuild....I am toying with the idea of squonking NETs...it just that I'm not crazy about cotton ,rayon, or silica.

I've seen folks using ceramic and mesh in BF drippers, it can be done.

Had a pleasant "peanut butter in my chocolate" moment after mixing two different liquids on accident. I just changed my coil in the nautilus and filled the half empty tank with Old English from EV; thought that was what was in the tank. However, it had EV's Confederate in that tank (the color of the liquid is the same and I grabbed the wrong bottle). Call it a happy accident but gotta tell ya, I am enjoying how the Lakatia complements the Virginia's and Perique; can't seem to to put it down. Love when a mistake becomes a error in my favor or should I say flavor. LOL

It will work sure, but with NET juices it's a matter of having to dry burn your coils often, and neither ceramic or mesh is as easy to change out wicks with than cotton...for porous ceramic to really shine whether it's in a genny ,a kayfun, or a BF dripper the coil needs to be hot wrapped, and that's a lot more time consuming than pulling a cotton wick through...also in my experince porous ceramic wicks seem to foul really easy with NET juices much faster than even mesh.Dry burning with the mesh or ceramic in place....it works, but not great.

The Va/Per was one of the blends I received yesterday. They were kind enough to also send samples of Choctaw Perique and Chris' Blend. Looking forward to all of it. Thanks for the review!

I believe you will like Va/Per as there is nothing about it not to like. Let me know what you think about Choctaw Perique and Chris' Blend. I think I have a couple of samples of these somewhere.

Vicman how longs your old english been steeping? I had a 10ml hidden in my car (in arizona) for 2 months , talk about pleasant surprises! . Have you tried the new burley?

This one is only a couple weeks old but it is the second time I ordered; good stuff if you like Latakia (yep, I do). I noticed that most of EV's stuff is good right out of the mail for the most part. Have not tried the new burley but have had the old one which I liked. Will be ordering that on my next order though.

I have tried Eclipse and liked it. Been meaning to order another bottle of it but get sidetracked when I place an order; always get something else that catches my attention. Oh look, shinny penny. But seriously, I have like every item I tried from EV; they are on par with all the A-tier NET's I have tried thus far.

I'd like to see pictures of the shop vac hooked up to the buchner funnel, but I imagine its too loud for the house and I doub't it would work in the winter with the increased viscosity.



I'm kind of out of idea's on making a new net, net.com's flavors (Big Spirit) are so good and clean, hard to compete with. Right now I'm a bit obsesssed with trying a vaperite madagascar vanilla tobacco net. Its outstanding. I'm finding working with vanilla challenging, you can't just toss a piece of beeen in your PG maceration, I think that it leads to coked up coils.

Switched it up today to try a cigar type from QnJ which is about a month old. I have tried the Kuba Kuba and liked it cause it hit that acid or blonde flavor profile I like. However, today I went to Habana Daydream to see how it was. Gotta tell ya, I am impressed with it. It hit the cigar profile on the head. At least for my newish cigar-style vaping likes that is. Overall, I am liking the offerings from QnJ I've tried thus far.

I wanted to ask if anyone has used 2.5 micron lab filters to filter thier extracts with, and what the results were.

I use 3 micron and I get pretty good results. I would say a 4ml average on my rewicked Kanger BDCs with 50/50 juice. Higher PG levels stretch it out even further. At 100% PG I was getting over 6ml without an issue.
