Hi all,
I've been reading all I can in this sub forum, and from what I gather pipe tobacco yields more flavor than cigars, and heat extraction yields bolder flavor than cold extractions (particularly for cigars, and in VG).
So it looks like a hot extraction is in my future, but from what I've read it's best to keep from going above 150° F, making crock pots a bit of a problem.
So here's my question: has anyone successfully used mug warmers for their extractions? It seems most such warmers stay between 125 and 140 degrees, which sounds about right.
My plan at the moment is to cut up a cigar or two, put in a tall mason jar and pour a generous amount of glycerin on top. Maybe a few days of heat and a few weeks of steeping ought to do it?
