Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

I'm vaping two of my Honduran Blueberry 2FTs. I'll try the Honduran Bilberry next. What I can say is both are a bit on the anemic side but the FW version has more blueberry taste than the TFA. About all the TFA does is mute the Ligero a little but it doesn't add any blueberry taste. At least I get a little flavor from FW. As is, both of these blueberries fall short and TFA is out. In order for this to work the bilberry is going to have to breath some life into it. Thinking this will go nowhere because I can always vape the Honduran Berry Mix and get as good a thrill.

Well, I knew the blueberry needed a touch of Bilberry.

Ok, typo. I CAN still buy stuff here (except for sanitizer) but there is nothing in my daughter's area.

I could only find 50% alcohol so I plan to mix half and half. That should work, right?

No,not if you want it to be sanitizer

You really need 99% alcohol - 2/3 alcohol to 1/3 aloe vera gel or VG. It isn't antiseptic if the mixture is not at least 60% alcohol.

That would wind up only 25% alcohol, not effective, as Fran said. The MINIMUM alcohol in the final mix needs to be 60% (or more.)

And PJ, as I was typing

Use a juice calculator, plugging the % alcohol in as nic, and go from there, simple 2 ingredient mix

The absolute best way to keep the virus off your hands is to wash them anyway. I save the hand sanitizer for when I am out and can't wash my hands. The kids are home from school here for the next 6 weeks, so we will all wash our hands and wash our hands. That is one thing that the schools have been pushing with the kids so they are very good little hand washers now.

They ought to break 2 or 3 times during the day to wash their hands.

Always a good idea.

Nope. Even 50% alcohol undiluted isn't enough.

Aloe Vera gel like the sunburn gel?

 

[Zazie]

I imagine you can use anything you want, @Terri McVeety, as long as the end result is at least 60% alcohol.

 

[DavidOck]

Uh, maybe? Many of the sunburn formulations only include some aloe vera, and the extra stuff may or may not be good.

 

[FranC]

If I were making my own I wouldn't use less than 2/3 alcohol.

That’s what I was afraid of. I saw aloe juice-that’s something different, right? I’m just going to use VG I think, it won’t take much

 

[FranC]

So far we have 6 cases of the virus in NH in 2 county’s not near us. No deaths at yet but school closings in the 2 affected county’s.

Aloe Vera juice is to drink - yuck! VG will be fine. Plain Aloe Vera gel (without lidocaine) is great if you can find it and it doesn't have to be the super expensive kind.

My youngest got an update from her college and they are off until March 30 and then do online classes until April 13 and they will decide at that point if they are going back.

I received my stixx order today. Holy cow that was fast. I only ordered three but he sent a free one anyway. I appreciate it. He must look at order history because every time he sends one you haven’t bought yet. He sent stokkebye birds eye flake this time.
