Hello All, Jeremy gave me this link as I am just getting into the Arabic HS to mix with ECX Nic.
Thanks Jeremy,
I followed the link you gave me, and read up to here. Now I will go back to page 134 and start from there and read up so I can feel (pretty much) fully up to date on this.

Welcome to the thread 52! ..
Arabic, oh I think you'll get some th with, I take it you needed more.
If your going back to page 134 then you gotta go back to 133 too...
Thanks Jeremy, Good stuff on that page, Bookmarked a few posts also.
Hangsens are the easiest to mix juices. Each flavor is complete.. All tobacco flavors are made with ultra clean extracted tobacco base, they make it in-house by molecular distillation a natural extraction technique. A deeper extraction that appears to contain some beneficial alkaloid.

Fyi hangsen users.
Heres a post I found from hangsen.
Hangsen Electronic Cigarettes and E-liquid: E-liquid ingredient A-Z
They say they use chromatography to extract flavor. This is from thier blog and seems we missed this in the past....
Heres an intro on chromatography

This is what gave the green light to me for using Hangsen a while back. Having done NET extractions myself, I figured Hangsen had to be tasty!
I already ordered the Arabic HS from BullCity (10ml bottle) and plan to mix it with ECX base at from 3mg/ml to 6mg/ml Nic strength. The question is, since it is factory sealed (?) and should be pretty intense as compared to RTS Re-bottled Hangsen's, should I Streep it like good ole Rip does for a few days, or just take the cap & tip off (assuming it has one) and let it steep for about 2-6 hrs. then cap it and let it sit for a couple weeks cap back on, what are ya'lls suggestions ??
Edit: I will be using my Cthulhu V2 and my Lemo V2 for this.
Edit 2: Never mind, Found it in Jeremy's post # 2874 on page 144.

Give the Arabic 1-2 weeks as a start to reaching it's final (and magnificent) flavor. However, having said that you can also start after a couple days. Enjoy!
Welp, got ingredients coming to mix up an RY4 based on some Hangsen tobacco and various other flavors. Wish me luck. I want to start with Congress, I just hope that little citrus background that it has doesn't interfere with the sweet stuff.
Very interesting. Thanks for posting, Jeremy.
Yeah, some of the info has been hard to find and what we had found before was molecular distillation. Which may be very similar or the same thing they are referring to chromatography.
Doing some taste testing of a few Hangsen tobaccos over the next few days. I'll try and search box reviews of these tobaccos before I haul off and ask some same questions again.
But, HS CO tobacco? Can't seem to find many post on this flavor. HS says it's a Cohiba....hmmm? To me it has the faint flavor of the FA SoHo or a premixed Tribeca; sweet tasting, with caramel, slightly nutty and a funnel cake flavor. I never tasted a Cohiba cigar which tasted like this!?!.....like a day at the fair?
Any other folks have the HS CO tobacco in their stash?

1-2 weeks steep, Thanks (is that with cap on or off). I'm at page 156 in this thread and have read that Art likes to "Cook" his Hangsens ? I've got some more reading, and Learning to do.
Edit: I've already got over 40 book marks from page 133 up to 156 so far. This thread is VERY informative, just the kind I like.
Edit 2: That's some blog you have there dannyv45. Thanks for writing it up and letting us inexperienced DIY'ers benefit from you're experience. I'll get to that "hit and miss", as a reference, or when I have a question about this or that. Thanks Again.

Cap on. The only reason I know of to leave the cap off is if there's excess alcohol you want to evaporate. If you're doing so, stick a cotton ball in the top to keep out dust, etc. And yeah, if you cook your juice you can accelerate some aging but my experience is it won't get you all the way there. I have crock pot and digital thermometer but my preferred approach is to set fresh mixes on my receiver (in metal tray) for a 3-4 days and then give a few more weeks of shelf aging. This warms at a lower temp than the crock pot -- not saying this any better or worse than crock pot, but works fine. I generally have enough juice on hand that shelf aging works just fine. BTW, I have first hand experience with leaching of plasticizers and use only glass bottles. Enjoy!

I'm sure it's been mentioned, but a couple drops of tobacco absolute in the bottle combined with HS tobaccos ain't bad at all, I'm using the ECX diluted variety. I'm using it with Magic Mix, pretty solid. Definitely going in the pot come RY4 day.
JD (and the rest) I got a pretty good deal on glass bottles from Amazon prime. For $99 a year, it's been more worth it than I thought. My stuff usually gets here on the third day from ordering.

went to buyhangsen(from what they have left) and have 6 essences on their way here.
got two menthols for the wife...and for me i got magic mix,usa mix,black label and ry2.
im sure ill like at least a couple of them....
been mixing for a couple of years now, think im decent at it...
just would like a new direction i suppose...
probably will do nets sooner or later

i see there are quite a few regular posters on this thread that really know what they are talking about
i like that!

Realize that buyhangsen has had there going out of business sale going on for some time and there stock has passed it's expiration date. Now this is not a bad thing in fact I find Hangsen flavorings get better with age so don't get upset when you see these expired dates there still fine to use. I have many 50ml bottles from there that all taste wonderful. I just wanted to mention that because there has been some negative postings on here about this. I am likely the most informed person on this forum when it comes to hangsen flavorings so my word is your bond on this.
