cooking a ecig tincture?

[Mr. Blonde]

Alrighty... It's official, i'm high on vapes from my eGo... I'm about 85% satisfied with the solution... It vapes great, I was a little worried when i filled the cartomizer with it because usually when you add the liquid the wicks become almost invisible immediately. but when i put my "Tinker Bud", as I've been calling it, in it.. the wicks appeared to remain almost dry (and still kinda do) but it seems to be wicking fine... I DO wish it was a little stronger... I'm a very heavy toker.. made sure i didnt smoke anything all day so i could actually tell if it was doing anything.. i'd say i took about 5 or 6 tokes on the eCig (which tastes exactly as if you were smoking buds through a vape) before i started to feel a little "toasty"... soooo i think i'm going to take my masta batch, add a Tbsp or two of kif, and let that sit for a a day or so at temp; or maybe a week or so room temp... as for the smell; it's minuscule to none... prolly take care of whatever smell there is when i start adding flavors, and after that I'll be vaping everywhere! Planes, trains, schools, Gov. buildings, etc.... got some "patients" stopping buy but later i'll prolly toss up a vid er something

We Did It Guys!!!

... I'd like to thank the Academy, Smokajoe, Travis9226, Kanivers, Chesus, and all you little people who made it possible to stick it to the man!

Stay high y'all... I know I will

Here is my new rig. Anyone else use this type? VaporX XL

So my 80/20 mix is really starting to break down the herb. The mixture looks like its separating into dark green sediment on the bottom and a lighter green suspension floating on top. It smells amazing and makes your mouth go numb when tasting. I am using 2 oz solution for 7 g herb. Even at 2 oz that fills my tank (1.6ml), 37 times. Each tank gives an uncountable amount of hits, like more then 50 maybe even 100. I'm no mathematician, but I think I just turned a quarter into an ounce! I'm just praying that the potency is there!

I really want this to work for you but I really think your gonna have to smoke an entire tank to feel the slightest buzz. Just my prediction, I hope I'm wrong. Let us know bro

it worked for MR. Blonde and "I think" my tincture will be stronger than his. Thanks for the encouragement! I'm waiting 2 months so its going to be a while. I'll def keep updating my progress here and especially when I use it.

Why might I ask is your "process" taking so long?

 

[Kanivers]

This was the first thread I found with a definitive answer to ratios. After that I've visited every board I could. There's a woman on the grass city forums who knows her shit called badkittysmiles. She independently backed up the two month waiting time. I've also seen 3 months. Here are some other links:

by the way here is the separation that is happening.

personally I bho then dissolve the shatter..takes minutes...but thats me

 

[Kanivers]

I would have to make it myself. I don't know where to get BHO. I'm not set up for it and I don't want to make the investment right now. VG and PG are cheap and so is a mason jar

 

[Kanivers]

So it's been two weeks. I've been heating (under 180F) water in a plastic 32oz deli container in the microwave almost every day and placing the jar inside, letting it cool. It's definitely separated. I was wondering if it might be ready early due to the extra solvency of my high PG mix. I strained it, filled my tank, and puffed. Now...

let me first say it got me high. That being said I'm already high on green dragon and bubbler hits so its really hard to tell how well it worked. I plan on waiting the two full months so it can only get stronger. I'm going to hit it tomorrow on a clear head and post.

 

[smokajoe]

Awaiting your results!

 

[Kanivers]

Well it's not where I want it. I hit it today lightly, but I want it to the point where I just need to take two or so pokes. I drained the tank back into the jar. I can't expect something that I was told will take 2 months, will be ready in two weeks. I'm just anxious!

 

[smokajoe]

Did you get medicated at all?

 

[Kanivers]

I'm going to say no.

 

[Kanivers]

It's working!!! One month in (half way there) the liquid is much darker and smells different. I've been shaking and lightly heating almost everyday. I had to dip in and try a little bit! Filled up my Tank, took three long puffs and held it in, and... I'm high!!!
I am still going to wait the full two months but I am happy with the effects after a month and it can only get better!!!

 

[smokajoe]

Nice I'm excited haha will start mine soon

I have been wanting to try e-cigs for awhile but am finaly ready to purchase my first one. I've been making pills by heating coconut oil and hash in a crock pot for 24 hours and I figured I could use the same recipe for e-cigs, if the consistency is right. So I have two questions, what consistency should the tincture be and what brands of e-cigs are recomended?

The thinner the easier the cart or tank wicks. VG is much thicker but is doable 100%. No one seems to have the one I bought: VaporX, most people talk about g pen. I like my pen a lot but you can't cape concentrates only e liquid. I think g pen makes a attachment where you can put straight concentrate on the coil. It is in direct contact with the heating element with no wicking.

Thanks for the information, it seems that I will have to go with a different recipe then the coconut oil.
