Glycerine

So where boys getting liquid nic from?
Taking chances ordering from Canada, or the states. Mine worked out perfect. Stroodle got got whacked R1005 in tax.
Otherwise, you can get from Oupa on the forum or eciggies at R100 for 30 ml of 36mg/ml nic.
 
What size did Stroodle order?

I ordered quite alot

236 ml Unflavored Nicotine Juice USA made(Nicotine Strength: 12 mg/ml (Mild), Blend: PG 80% VG 20% )

Along with some flavours, so I guess it was my own stupidity for ordering such a large amount but Mt Baker also marked the invoice with a lower value - I got charged extra because it got stopped by customs and had to go through port of health and all sorts of other crap
 
Well at least it got through - thinking of trying those Atmos liquids we've been eyeing...
 
:) Melinda trying to get hold of them, but they are rather pathetic regarding customer contact - will keep on trying - Hoping that once you order from them they will be a bit more responsive
 
Guys I sent my daughter off to Dischem to buy Glycerin and she came back with two bottles but it doesn't say VG or PG anywhere? Just BP? What on earth is BP and is it OK?

That is perfectly fine. Bp is british Pharm. grade.
That is vg you have there :)

BP stands for British Pharmacopoeia. So it's a pharmaceutical grade and safe to use :)
 
That's what I'm using. BP stands for British pharma...something.

It's pharmaceutical grade VG

VG is Vegetable Glycerine which does not infringe on the views of vegetarians. Glycerine BP is perfectly safe and is pharma grade as well
 
Might not be true VG though, unless it actually states vegetable origin it could be manufactured from animal fats. Still no problem with it, I've used it, didn't die :p
 
I got mixed results with alphapharm BP glycerine but the dolly varden stuff seems to work well. Also ordered some proper VG from @drew.

I tried some of that glycerin bp last week in a new Kayfun setup too see if it still keeps leaking and I didn't want to risk wasting precious juice. Made the mistake of inhaling a massive drag. Urrghhhh! Disgusting to the max!

Glycerin shouldn't realy taste like anything. Just a bit of sweetness.

True @Gazzacpt.

Was it a new kayfun @Reinvanhardt? Maybe you were tasting machine oil :eek:

Mmm... I can't really remember the taste that well and I not keen to try again but I think it was a too strong chemical taste or maybe it was all that vapour and throat hit with no taste association confused my taste buds a tad. Anyway I gagged a lot. And no machine oil was present. Kayfun is a couple of weeks old and has had many thorough cleaning sessions.

Also, when diluting too strong juices with glycerine I can only get to about a 10% ratio before spoiling the juice. I suppose that's normal because you're diluting the flavour as well.
 
The V in VG is for when the glycerine is made from using plant materials only - it can also be made from animal fats etc. - but important to note that the end product is exactly the same chemical formula, so no way to tell which end product you have

A lot of Glycerine in SA is VG, some is not, in the end it only matters if you are a vegan :)
 
You can Buy Dolly Varden at most pharmacies, and it is B.P Rated.
ANother brand is Alpha Chem or something like that.

Thanks for this. I just bought the Dolly Varden VG, which states B.P. I bought it from Jumbo Cash and Carry in Durban, very cheap. I was Googling VG for safety and I arrived here. Now I know I have bought the right stuff.
 
When diluting ejuice for the nicotine, I use the same ratio of VG/PG that the juice is made of so as to not mute the flavor too much. If I dilute a juice because the flavor is too strong, then I use either pure VG or VG mixed with distilled water. If you don't mind PG then use only PG to dilute for nicotine and retain more of your flavor. :)
