Wow, a banting vegan, that cannot be easy?mmmm but i have patience....
and a pressure-cooker.....
dang it. dont want pg... i'm vegan.
Vegan as V.eG.an . .. . Virgin Gluten? Vaping Gigolo??! Vaping Gregariously
I also can imagine how difficult it would be to strain/filter VG, too darn thick!
a little alcohol to thin the VG is needed, then simmer to let the alcohol evaporate after straining.
Problem is that not all alcohol is removed from the processing afterwards, hence me thinking a good cognac or whisky solution with some pure alcohol + 80-90% VG can do the trick and also enrich the flavour.

Ok....quick note........tried the vanilla pod in PG. A full 4 weeks and some......liquid is rather dark. As for the taste - rather natural as expected BUT not very potent. This goes for the NET's as well. Bottom line is naturally extracted flavours are not as potent as the artificial ones and are rarely going to make a suitable mix on it's own. Where they shine for me is part of an overall recipe. If you have tasted Nicoticket's Frenilla and compare that to Naturally extracted (cold) vanilla pods you will realise that the success of frenilla is much more than a single naturally extracted component.
The fact is our tastebuds have been conditioned over the years by the food industry. Sometimes what we ascribe as "natural" is actually what we have become accustomed to as a particular flavour and may be nothing like the natural product e.g vanilla ice-cream.
Of the extracts I have tried thus far @Gazzacpt's Rum and Maple NET comes the closest to a stand-alone flavour as well as www.vaporize.co.za's black cherry NET.

Thanks for info. I might put mine in 40 - 50 deg water twice a day to help with extraction.
BTW I also noticed the aroma is vey mild.
Just enough to cover the solids....
did you cut the vanilla in any way?
Yes I cut it long ways in half.
Wondering what pg they used for this extract. And if it would be safe to use in a eliquid.

I used the PG from SkyBlueVaping
Rum & Maple is an "aromatic", flavourants added. i suppose Boxer is too. i spent a few hours trying to find out about the Boxer tobacco, what's in it...read some interesting stuff but couldn't find out.
Some good info at Wesleys. http://www.wesleys.co.za/houseblends.htm#01
i was wondering (worried about my brew)...surely some of the active ingredients, especially flavour - like vanilla, might go off with the alcohol. "Volatile oils'' , means they have a low evaporation point. "Essential oils" are volatile oils in a carrier oil.
...?
I made 2 batches. The first was ground vanilla pods (powder form) and the second was whole pods which I slit open and then chopped into rough pieces so I would need much less PG to cover it .
I just had to share this with you guys. Not sure if you've seen it allready, but oh my does it look and sound delicious.
This is awesome!
Got cloves, coffee, vanilla and black pepper bussy extracting. Gonna give it a lot of time. If it pans out I will get some decent tobacco to extract. Let's hold thumbs!
gonna try make me some cuteness juice. just need to add the pg now
i would LOVE to get my hands on some of this... really... my mouth is just watering now!
