Question about menthol crystals

[otakueric]

Hey guys, I'm new here. I just got my first starter kit today. got ECV92's from ecigaerttescanada, some apple disposables, and some mint e-liquid.

TO BE HONEST, I am a little disappointed with my first impression, i guess there just isn't enough flavor for me. I've been a heavy menthol smoker. Maybe 16mg is too weak for me, I'm not sure.

Does anyone have any experience with adding menthol crystals to ... spice up their vaping a bit?

I do, I've used them to even turn flavors I didn't like into menthol rather than throwing them away, and it worked quite well. Start very small though, a little goes a long way.

Grind them up fine and dissolve them in grain alcohol---you only need a little as the are very strong. Add to your e-juice or cartriges and you are good to go-----Sun

If the crystals seem too involved at first, you might first try the menthol drops from JuicyLiquid (suppliers forum). Go easy, though -- a little goes a long way!

would these menthol drops work retroactively? meaning can i add a drop to a disposable cartridge and itll work?

I'm not too sure on how the interior is, but will it mix well enough? hehe

thanks

Well, I guess it's official . . . it sounds like I'm about the laziest person around. I just throw some crystals into a liquid, shake it up, and then I wait around for the crystals to dissolve.

Yup. I'm lazy.

Crystals will "sometimes" reform in juice. in the alcohol they wont

Personally, I dissolve them by adding them to the liquid then sitting the bottle of liquid into a bowl of hot water and letting them sit for a few minutes. The crystals will no longer be visible, so shake or swirl to mix it up a bit more and enjoy vaping. No alcohol needed, they've never reformed in my DIY batches.

You know, I've heard that, but it's yet to happen to me. I wonder if the recrystalization is a function of how saturated the liquid is with crystals.

In any event, the day I get crystals reforming in my liquid will undoubtedly be the day I'll become more industrious. But until then . . .

i bought some menthol drops, I guess i'll be the guinea pig in finding out whether you can add them safely to disposables

That's the way I do it too. My son is the big menthol user in the house and he loves it. So far it hasn't reformed on me either.
