rok Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 I noticed that Vapor Renu has an option for caffeine additives in their juice. Does anyone know where the DIY'er could buy the additive by itself for custom mixes?
Beans Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Sorry I don't, but I did add the high version to my BlueBerry Pie at VR. Just be careful. After vaping for a while I started shaking like a leaf and felt like I was going to have a panic attack. (not normal for me) Probably good in small doses but not something you want to do too much of. Off subject, but I did want to warn you.
rok Posted March 29, 2011 Author Posted March 29, 2011 I appreciate the warning, Beans! To tell you the truth, that actually makes me more interested, in my line of work I need all the energy I can get!
johns Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Now I can stop buying coffee and have more money for juice
Aes Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Don't stop buying coffee! I need money for juice! Lol The other day I was just thinking how awesome it would be to have caffiene or guarana or something added to juice, provided it could be processed by your body that way. If you try it, lemme know. Ill have to get some. Or just some unflavored PG + caffiene and add some other juice and have a "Morning blend" of juice. I'm gonna go look them up now...
cheshyl Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 If you want a good coffee taste, try Starbuckets from Sweet-Vapes. it is a really good coffee. You could add some to the juice that has caffiene in and have the best of both worlds. Just a thought.
AimeeG Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 Kona Cream from Sweet Vapes is also excellent. Even had a dream about the taste of it the other night. So yummy. Mix with caffeinated liquids as you desire.
egoluvr Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 Aimmee me too about the kona cream, doesn't it just rock your world. I absolutely love it. oops sorry i'm hijacking lol - back to the caffeine additives I saw these somewhere try DIY FlavorShack or My Freedom Smokes USA
Brian Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 Ran across this today and it reminded me of this thread. http://flavorwest.com/index.php/caffeine/e-caffeine-65.html
kitsune Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 I am seriously intrigued...... I work nights and sometimes even making coffee takes too much time.

kitsune Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 I see a budget crisis in my near future..... Good thing husband is in Hawaii
ThaLadyD Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 Does anyone think this is a bad idea? That the e-cigarettes might look even worse to the FDA because of this? Just my opinion.
Emile Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 I think the idea is clever, but the reality is not so great. Caffeine is meant to be delivered through the digestion system, not delivered via vapor into the lungs and mouth tissue. It's going to bring up a whole new set of issues/problems/concerns from the FDA.
ThaLadyD Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 Thats what I was thinking.. it should be kept as clean as possible because we don't even know the true inhalation risks of traditional ingredients. Some chemicals change into toxic one's when heated/vaporized, and there's usually not many studies done (for inhalation) on products made for consumption. I've recently heard that vanillin is one of those ingredients, but it was just a post on a forum, not confirmed.. Also, because we hear of college kids dying from drinking alcohol with it.. it just scares me a bit. Abuse or mistakes are too easy, and it would hurt the community overall (imo). Nicotine is dangerous enough, and the FDA is already all over the alcohol/caffine stuff, why add another ingredient they seem so interested to regulate? AimeeG 1
GPurv Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 Nic + Caffeine + alcohol... I'm not sure what shape my PV would be then.

This is why you are one of my top two of my liquid suppliers.
rok Posted April 19, 2011 Author Posted April 19, 2011 (edited) I found a supplier for caffeine additives, http://flavorwest.com/index.php/caffeine.html Has anyone used Flavor West? *edit* Just saw where this was already posted. I do see the point of possible dangers and FDA issues. I may still try it and see, surely it can't be worse for me than drinking a 16oz. Monster every day?!? Edited April 19, 2011 by rok
kitsune Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 I just recently got some flavor west flavorings from Eliquid store My link. The flavorings have been good so far. I don't think they have the caffeine, would have to go to the flavor west site.
Brian Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 Not 100% sure, but I thought I read somewhere that VaporRenu purchased Flavorwest.
CDATundra Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 Brian, I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere too.

Just my 2 cents but if the web site with the caffeine additive says: use at your own risk and another product says not to use with e liquid. That would make me wonder if it would be any where near to being safe. I for one would not use this eventhough a few suppliers use caffeine as an additive (I have read), I would not even think twice about not using it. IMO Edited April 20, 2011 by cheshyl

IMO I am sure that every site selling non-FDA approved products has some type of disclaimer on their products, in our "lawsuit happy" society you probably have to! I think the product they said not to use in e liquid was the one specifically for drink mixes.
