QWET: Why purge for juice vaping?

First, I'm not only a three month newbie with ecig vaping (2 months, no cigs!), but I'm also a virgin with regard to medicinal concentrates.

I have mixed my own nicotine ejuice for vaping and it works well for that. I have propylene glycol and vegetable glycerine on hand.

I am still in the process of doing the research for QWET for personal vaporizers, but it seems to me that you could let it evaporate until it thickens slightly, then mix the still relatively thin juice into PG so it dissolves, then if too thin (leaking from your glassomizer), mix in some VG.

Seems like if the juice were already dissolved in PG, it wouldn't be too big a deal to dissolve a little VG, maybe 20%, into that.

A little VG can really go a long way quality of lungfeel, IMO.

So anyway, what is the case for fully purging a QWET when sole final use is a personal vaporizer?
Seems like keeping some alcohol in solution until it gets as thick as PG would work just as well, and make it easier to harvest.

Thanks

Iv only tryd mixing bho with vg, which worked well imo.. But I want to try mixing 190 everclear with some bho to make it more liquidy For ecig tanks, I think that would be best

Thanks, that leads to another question...

How thin can a juice be before it starts leaking? I know it's gonna be different for every tank, but has anybody worked with REALLY thin juices? They all just flood, regardless of hardware, right?

I don't think there is any way to thicken a juice without diluting it with VG.

There are no issues that I know of leaving some residual ethanol in your e-juice and in fact some folks dilute their oil with ethanol to make e-juice.

I suspect that how thin you can make your juice, is highly dependent on cartomizer design, how hot the surrounding environment is, and the tank gets during use.
