Someone mentioned coffee so I made some with coffee grounds and heated it with a small amount glycerin, then strained it to get a very dark flavor I added some stevia & the coffee to a VG base and no nicotine.. I think I got a caffeine buzz.. Taste good..

Just made some with coffee grounds and VG it came out strong and black. No water. Put some stevia in it , it is stevia extract and VG already made with no chemicals in it. Gonna let it set a while in the glycerin I just put it in, then try it later. I'm glad I came on here for info or I would have tried essential oils.. Threw that away and now trying to make my own flavors without nicotine. If this works I can't wait to try mint..

I'm with you, I have just read of some adding stevia extract to their flavors, but I don't know what they are putting in the flavor I don't really want to put it in my lungs.. They say essential oils are a no no.. One the points of getting off cigs is to stop putting chemicals in your body. I eat clean & Paleo. Coffee sounds good, maybe I can make a coffee stevia blend.. Then try mint tea, or other flavors of natural things boiled down strong. I got the glycerin from Walgreens and put an essential oil in it, but now they tell me that the oil is bad.. So time to start over...
I have been cutting back on nicotine and want to start using a nicotine free blend that I make my self.. I now need another vapor pipe so I can keep my nicotine fix handy till I Don't need it any more... Already regular cigs are starting to seem nasty to me.. The last time I tried one I threw it away after half.. Yuck. LOL.

What are the flavors made of if not oils?

I started out with the cheap N Joy chargeable one with replaceable "filters" It was like trying to suck yogurt through a straw. Very unsatisfying almost made me think vapor was bull... Then someone told me I had to get the kind that held different liquids, was refillable etc. I figured all those users couldn't all be wrong so I got a EVOD, it has a slot for viewing the amount you have left, but is not clear like the ones that show the dark liquid inside and look nasty IMO. The clear ones I see make me think how gross, cover that up it looks bad.. It holds a charge for me for a few days, depending on use. It is so much cheaper than cigs, after the $30 initial investment.
I have been going down in % after initially going up to the strongest.. Planning on making my own and trying essential oils. I got extra wicks just I case a ruin mine. If this works I will have to get another stick so I can have a hit of nicotine when I want it without changing liquid. I will get another EVOD if I can find it, I love the one I have, and even tho the color is wearing off, why switch when you couldn't be happier with what you have.

I got me some Skinny Girl Stevia extract liquid sweetener, and i am going to try it today.
Ingredients : Water, Erythritol, Stevia extract, natural flavors (whatever that might be lol), malic acid, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate. I do not know if any of them are harmful when inhaled through vaping, i hope not ....)
Please don't inhale malic acid, sodium benzoate, or potassium Sorbate, go to a whole foods or a Sprouts and get natural Stevia extract with no chemicals in it. No alcohol either. It's well worth the effort. It's not that expensive and it's better, inhaling nicotine is bad enough as we well know LOL. The one called Better Stevia is diluted with glycerin which is nasty for using as a sweetener in your drinks, but might be good in a vape since it is glycerin... But I get the liquid that doesn't have all the chemicals or glycerin.

I have been vaping a couple months, it's so clean no stink, no mess, I started out with a 15% cause I told the guy I only smoked a couple a day, but he was wrong! I smoked reds, I needed the higher % to start. It was not satisfying at all. I got a stronger liquid and it did the trick. But now the strong one seems to be stronger than I need so I went down to the first bottle of 15% and it is enough. I used the strong one at Vegas and it was right, except it makes my throat a little tender. I cheated with a cig a couple times a week at first, but the last cig I had I only took a few puffs and threw it. Amazing but I don't want them anymore..
I looked into making my own vape & found that it's just glycerin and flavor. So I am big into essential oils and bought some glycerin and some extra wicks in case I ruin mine. Glycerin is what you get in an IV so I figure it's not bad for you. I know essential oils are good for you. So I have used a few drops of frankincense in glycerin & after it's had time to marinate I am going to try it in my Vapor. Hopefully it works and I can weed out to he nicotine completely eventually.. If it works I will need another vapor stick so I can still get a hit when I need it until I don't need it or want it anymore.
What's the difference between Hookah and Vapor?

So far so good, I only out a few strained drops in the bottle. It actually taste more like a cig than I'm used too. Might be clogging tho little harder drag..
QUESTION what about flavors based in VG with only a little acohol in it? Our Chinise market has them cheap, they are natural and mostly VG. Considering you only put a few drops in your mix. Will the acohol hurt anything.
