Tried the steeped tobacco leaves concentrate for the first time in a mix today that I made for my friend . . . OMG! It's absolutely lovely! If you're missing that real tobacco flavour, you really must try this.  Thank you Frog.  It is very good isn't it perps.... gets even better as the final mix matures. I am using it in some of the tobacco based liquids I am selling on my website shop, (think I should have kept it a secret)  |

Anyone buying Stevia, I would advise that they buy the powder form not the liquid, and get it directly from Paraguay.
The purest form (and the strongest /sweetest) I have found is available from WWW. SteviaStore.co. You can e-mail them at Info@Stevia-Store.Com or there is a UK agent who advertises on e-bay as “Natuit.” (if you order through him it still gets posted from Paraguay).
Be advised, lots of other sellers use additional ingredients to “cut” the powder.
Below are a few reasons to use 100% pure get it in it form a reputable supplier... Do not use supermarket sweeteners that claim to be made from Stevia, they contain only a small %.
* Sugarless with no calories
* Will not effect blood sugar levels like sugar does.
* 100% Natural
* 250 to 300 times sweeter than sugar
* Heat stable to 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit)
* Non-fermentable
* Flavor enhancer
* Plaque retardant Anti-caries (prevents cavities)
* Recommended for diabetics
* Non-toxic Extensively tested in animals and Extensively used by humans with no adverse effects.

I am sorry if you took my post as condescending.
To clarify, with reasoning, based on science and a fair bit of experience…
Johnboy asked if thinning a mix with Vodka produces more vapour, you answered “No”.
I answered, It can be Yes and No…
It all depends on:-
(a) the equipment you are using to vaporise the juice
(b) the wattage being produced at the coil
(c) the surface area of the coil also being matched with the wicking ability (no dry hits, no coil flooding)
Thinning a juice with Vodka / water / etc, can help produce more vapour in certain circumstances if, for example, if the juice is very thick and the equipment i.e. wick cannot supply the coil effectively.
A juice can be too thick for certain types of equipment, it therefore will not vaporise correctly, giving poor flavour and vapour, in a situation like that, thinning the juice will improve both.
If the juice is already at the correct consistency for the equipment to allow for maximum wicking and the coil is effectively vapourising that liquid, then thinning the juice further would not help and may reduce vapour production.
What I was explaining is.... It is not a YES/NO answer, there is more to it than that!

just ordered whole leaf tobacco with vanilla....cant wait  Me too skyjay, as well as some other tasters....come on royal mail. You know, I think vaping is going to spawn a load of postman fetishes... Both orders arrived after the last post has been collected from here, but they are all made up and will go out first thing in the morning for you…. Hope you enjoy it, I have been chain vaping the vanilla and the blueberry ones all day, very nice ! if I say so myself.  Well Frogster, Hats off to you sir. Your Liquorice Tobacco has just become my all time favourite vape, I will be ordering another 50ml very soon. The tobacco is surprisingly very pronounced in that I actually thought Id just put some in my mouth and chewed it, Liquorice is at a perfect balance. Vapour is good to average for a 50/50 mix and throat hit is pretty darned good too. Well done indeed. At 4.4v over 1.8 ohms its actually pretty close to Vape Porn. Thanks Skwoody, it would be appreciated if you could add the above review as a “Alchemists Cupboard Liquorice Tobacco” thread to the review forum and also (if I may ask) against the product on the website…. A new business is very appreciative of good feedback, it all helps with sales and keeps costs down in the long run…. Thanks.  |

Yes and No.... It will increase the throat hit, the diluting action will make the juice thinner... But, it all depends on:- (a) the equipment you are using to vaporise the juice (b) the wattage produced at the coil (c) the surface area of the coil also being matched with the wicking ability (no dry hits, no coil flooding). If you are using say a Viva Nova or such like, then as they are more suited to thinner juices, the diluted juice, although thinner, will wick and therefore vape better and produce more vapour. Its not all black and white.... experience and understanding your equipment is part of the key in knowing what ratios to mix to, what will work better, give the best flavour, TH, vapour and why. Quite right Froggy, but JB asked if Vodka would increase the vapour if mixed into any juice, to which the simple answer is no. Sorry to disagree, But the simple answer is not "NO".... Read my post and explination again. Diluting with vodka or water can give more vapour. |

Would anyone know if the banana flavouring cracks poly carb tanks? No reports of it happening with Banana, I tested it in some I have... OK. The only one I have come across in CCW is Lime, but someone else reported CCW Orange, (use another Orange so I can't comment). Also, remember, it is not all polycarbonate tanks that are affected, some makes are fine.... just adds to the confussion.... what ones are OK and what ones not, I don't know. |

Other way round JB. Vodka will slightly reduce vaper, but increase throat hit. Yes and No.... It will increase the throat hit, the diluting action will make the juice thinner... But, it all depends on:- (a) the equipment you are using to vaporise the juice (b) the wattage produced at the coil (c) the surface area of the coil also being matched with the wicking ability (no dry hits, no coil flooding).

Yep, custom orders can be made and there is no extra charge for doing it, nearly all flavours can just about get to the 70VG/30PG ratio (it is subject to the base flavouring PG ratio) if that is what you want. There is a minimum of 10ml per flavour, to make up a special order. just put the request in the comments / special instructions box at the checkout I have syringes in hand and waiting for the order booblay |
