What is eJuice and How is it Made?

Ejuice, or eliquid as some may call it, is the juice that when heated up, forms a thick cloud a vapor. Vapers are always after the best tasting, and most cloud production ejuice they can find.

 

So how is it made?

 

Ejuice is made using only a few simple ingredients. The most important ingredient is vegetable glycerin (VG) which is the liquid that produces the most clouds. Some people vape pure VG just for the massive clouds, but VG doesn't have any flavor, and most people are after great tasting ejuice. Flavor is added to ejuice by adding a certain percentage of food grade flavor concentrate. Usually the percentage of flavoring is around 10%. VG and flavoring alone still won't have much flavor either due to VG's inability to carry flavors into vapor. This is where the third ingredient comes in, Propolyne Glycol (PG). PG is the liquid that carries the flavor into the vapor. So how do you get clouds and flavor all in one ejuice? To get that most ejuices are mixed with a specific ratio of VG/PG such as 80/20, 70/30, and 50/50. Most people stick to between 50/50 to 70/30, anything beyond that is getting into the realm of cloud chasing. The final ingredient in ejuice which is optional, is nicotine. Ejuice is perfectly vapable without nicotine in it, but most people use vaping as a way to get off of cigarettes, and the nicotine helps to keep them off the cigarettes. There are many different strengths of nicotine in ejuices. The most common one is 6 mg/ml which means that there is 6 milligrams of nicotine per milliliter of juice. Other common ones include 0, 3, 12, and 24. The simplicity and low ingredient count of ejuice is what brings a lot of people to vaping, compared to the thousands of harmful ingredients in tobacco. Vaping is the safest alternative to smoking.
