pga and vinagar/lemon juice???

[WebMistress89]

I have been searching the DIY forum, for info on PGA and how to add it, and why to add it and so on... I read that it may give more TH.

I want to find ways to have lower nic but still good TH.

but i have no clue how to do it:S

I have searched and searched but im not finding the right info, only amounts and recipies that use it, etc..

Also what about lemon juice and vinagar does that add TH?

Many flavorings add TH, more than PGA would. A couple I know of off the top of my head are Capella's Horchata and want2Vape's Caramel #2. I don't use PGA because I don't like the flavor it gives my juice but I love a good TH.

What GoodDog said, also mint, wintergreen and menthol flavors are better for TH..

WHat gooddog said . I cant stand PGA in my juice . Very johnsonsCreekish . Lemon juice does add a little . Some loranns flavorings like brandy and Butterrum add TH . Cinnamons, menthols ,kooladas all add TH . I think FA makes a flavor specifically for adding TH to non nic juice . I think its called flash . Havent tried it or head anyone using it though .

I cant stand PGA in my juices either, same with adding distilled water I think it's like going backwards using water, only thing I use PGA for is cleaning some stuff once in a while. I have used the older FA stuff called 'QUIT" but didnt like it, your best bet is probably using the flavors that provide more TH to achieve it, unless FA's newer stuff " Flash" is any better then the old "Quit"

What about something like menthol or koolada (the cooling effect of menthol without the taste)? It's not *exactly* TH, but it's similar enough it does the trick for me.

Yup both of those will add TH . Only thing is it may not work with the type of juice your making .

This is the decription for FA flash

Flash e-Liquid from FlavourArt

Nicotine free liquid designed to mimic the nicotine hit.

"With valuable feedback received for our previous 0 nicotine liquid, we reworked the formula making it more mild and well rounded.

Flash is designed as ready to vape E liquid but it can be diluted up to personal preferences.


Its a ready to vape juice so im not sure what it tastes like but maybe you can use it like you would nic base . May be worth a shot . If anything it would be better than menthol if your not making a menthol juice .

If you want to add TH I would suggest using High Powered Vodka, 100 proof and up.

Start with 2 drops per 5ml and add more as necessary.

Good luck!

I am not sure where to get that kinda vodka, I can check for it. Will only that work? you cant use normal stuff?

 

[pinellaspete]

Yeah, normal is what I meant. As long as it is 100 proof or above.

That's interesting that you get a TH from vodka, I never have. The only thing is does for me is make my juice taste weird but no increased TH. The only way I've gotten a better TH is through flavorings or upping the nicotine.

Usually, brands like Smirnoff will have a bottle of lower proof (I think Smirnoff uses a red cap on the lower proof) and 100 proof (blue cap on smirnoff? Just like milk hehe). I live in KY, and grain alcohol is readily available here, so I use Everclear or Golden Grain for everything.

I havent been able to get a TH with PGA either unless i used enough to ruin my juice . 3 or 4 drops wont give a TH but more than that will give the juice a bad taste and flavor goes byebye . I used to try it when making sample of 0 nic juice .If i liked the juice i added the PGA to try to get some TH so i could vape through it but it just wasnt happening unless i used like a half ml and then the juice was unvapable anyway .

Really?! I'm not a big TH fan so I don't use it, but a few drops of pga (in my case 151...I live in OH) gives me waaay more TH than I want. Bout knocked me on my ....! lol!

 

[GoodDog]

Patti, maybe because the alcohol had evaporated from the juice I vaped with it??

I am rather liberal with the PGA (or high strength vodka), but not really to achieve any effect other than getting every last drop out of a bottle or syringe - or to help with mixing some ingredients (menthol, TA, my own extractions).

I can't say I've really noticed any effects from it, good or bad. It is just a convenient cleaning and solving agent.

I agree ,It doesnt work great for cleaning my equipment .
