Black tea eliquid

[SteveS45]

I do not plan on needing to strain but the tea will be darker in less volume of liquid thus being stronger or more concentrated in my opinion.

Since it is an experiment like with a new recipe I would never make 180 ML's for a test.

I do not see a reason to make 6 ounces (180 ML) and if I do this I will make 15 Mls or so of concentrate.

It's just what I've stuck to and haven't refined it, it worked the first time well and I have a old jug of vg that I don't use. Let me know how it turns out.

 

[SteveS45]

My biggest concern so to speak is how weak one tea bag in 180 ML's would be and sure about the size of a cup of tea but not much room add much more bases or another flavor. Now do not take this like I am some expert because this would be my first attempt at natural extraction.

I found a Cherry Blossom Tea flavor I thoroughly enjoyed during 100°F Summer Heat Waves last year! I am looking for a bottle to try making a concentrate but wondering if it is safe to vape tea.

I wondered the same thing but after seeing a few tobacco posts figured why not. I'd stay away from herbs like valarian,sage and yohimbe.

I will not vape Nets or WTA because I gave up smoking and do not want any of the chemicals in tobacco. My reservations about the Tea has me holding off for the time being until I do some research into what I could be vaping.

I would do 2oz of vg to a tea bag or use 1 tsp of loose leaf tea in a jar with lid

Thats what I did for mint leaves.

 

[SteveS45]

Like I said I would probably do 15ML of PG to make a concentrate or maybe 50/50 VG/PG. But right now after doing some research into chemicals contained in popular teas I am a bit concerned with Fluoride and Pesticides found in the teas.

TFA makes:
Earl Grey Tea
Earl Grey Tea II (no/low alcohol version)
Green Tea
Black Tea
Black Tea Deluxe ("Premium" version)
Chai Tea
Chai Tea II (no/low alcohol version)
Sweet Tea
(all can be found here)

I have personally used the Earl Grey, Green, and Black (not the "Deluxe). The Earl was very good with a strong note of the bergamot essence. The Green was also very good; though it reminded me more of a basic "Lipton" type of tea vs. the lighter, more floral, "green" tea. But that could be because I was using too much. The Black (non-Deluxe) was just plain nasty and have read many posts of others who have had similar results (perhaps that is why they came out with the "deluxe" version... which I have yet to try).

These are synthetics so there is no worry about contaminants from botanical matter or micron filtration.

Fa Bergamot is good too, a 10 ml should last a while cause it's very potent. Goes good with anything citrus.

The Southern Sweet Tea that OSDIY has is also very good. It is very good and not too sweet either.

Messed with a few tea concentrates, seem to like flavor arts black tea the most, reminds me of a oolong the Chinese buffet serves. naturaly extracted flavors are coil gunkers tough so be prepared to rewick alot
