This dropped onto the doormat today:



Boy, am I glad customs didn't open it!!

I've had a search of the forum but can't find instructions for diluting it for mixing use. I'm sorry, I know it's probably been said many times before, can someone point me in the right direction, pretty please? Thanks!

I bet that raises eyebrows when going through customs.

This question may have already been asked and answered ....but I can't see it is the stevia they are now selling in supermarkets a suitable alternative to use as a sweetener for mixing?

[Jen]

It's the same basic ingredient, but not the same form. You need some in powder form so you can dilute it in some VG or PG

[Fagsareus]

They have it in granulated and tab form could you not just grind it?

[Jen]

Depends - I personally would check the ingredients as I would think a 100% stevia is best, and not stuff that's been mixed with whatever it is they put in it to make tablets. However, if you'd like to experiment, I'd be very interested in the results

[Fagsareus]

thanks Jen .....I just may have a try at mixing some e liquid of my own

BTW Leisure Liquids has Stevia in Liquid form for £2.49

Thanks digicig

TBH bought it as a sugar replacement - and to try before buying a larger quantity

Same place I ordered mine from. I thought it was coming from Bristol but turns out it was shipped from Paraguay. I think they put the location as Bristol so it won't put people off ordering. Took just over three weeks for mine to arrive.

Thanks Cammy I did wonder whether it was coming from somewhere abroad and not Bristol.

ordered the same. comes from paraguay. 3 weeks + is normal apparently, this is in its best form for mixing

I was going to ask a question about crushing Stevia tea/coffee sweetener tablets, but it's just been asked above. I will have a crush as I have about 50 which I don't like the taste of in my morning coffee, so will try as an experiment and post back here once it works (or otherwise!)

But it is the BEST stuff, It is not cut with anything else, diluted, or any other unknown nasties added. It is the purest and strongest available. (I would not advise using liquid or tablet forms, for the reasons above.... but at the end of the day, it is up to you).
