CBD isn’t going anywhere, with more name-brand stores
selling hemp-infused goods for the general public to enjoy, and with
legislation continuing to become more and more lenient of cannabis. Therefore, it shouldn’t be surprising to a
CBD enthusiast that lots of people are finding ways to make their own hemp
products from scratch.
Today, we’re seeing a new trend in the CBD world, and
that’s DIY CBD vape juice. Yes, it is
possible to make CBD-infused e-liquid from scratch, as vape enthusiasts are
proving to be true. So, what is the
benefit of making your own hemp-infused e-juice rather than buying it in the
store? And, how does one make CBD
e-liquid in the first place? Allow us to
answer all of your questions with this guide.
What is CBD Vape Juice?
CBD vape juice is an e-liquid product that contains a
therapeutic dose of hemp extract. The
e-liquid is poured into a tank or cartridge that is attached to a mod device
that’s powered by a battery. This allows
the user to inhale CBD-infused vapor on demand.
Many people enjoy vaping CBD as opposed to consuming it via other
methods because of how quickly the hemp compounds absorb into the body by
comparison. It also allows people to
enjoy a very portable and convenient way of consuming CBD on a daily basis.
Why is DIY CBD Vape Juice Becoming So Popular?
The thing about commercial CBD products is that they
can be a bit expensive. This is
understandable when you consider the large volume of hemp plant material that
must be extracted just to produce one milliliter of hemp extract. However, some of the cost comes from the
labor that went into producing and formulating the product. Therefore, by making your own CBD vape juice,
you can save some money. If you’re a
heavy hemp user, making your own CBD e-liquid from scratch can really provide
you with lots of savings.
Additionally, making CBD e-liquid from scratch allows
you to be more in control of your hemp experience. You can flavor it however you want, and you
can precisely control the amount of hemp that you consume per puff.
What’s Needed to Make CBD Vape Juice?
Now, let’s discuss what you’re going to need if you
want to begin a DIY CBD vape juice venture.
Equipment
The first thing you’ll need is equipment. Measuring equipment is a must, as each
ingredient must be measured precisely.
Syringes are beneficial as they allow you to measure small amounts of
ingredients and transport them into your bottles with ease. You’ll also want measuring cups for larger
amounts of ingredients, as well as large and small empty bottles into which you
can pour your batches of vape juice.
Hemp Extract
Hemp extract is the star here, so it goes without
saying that you’ll want to make sure that you have plenty on hand. Of course, it’s up to you whether you wish to
purchase full spectrum, broad spectrum or CBD isolate extract. You’ll also want to make sure that you
purchase your hemp extract from a trusted company that gives you lab results in
order to ensure that the hemp is very high in quality, as well as pure.
Remember that the hemp extract should not contain any
additives or carrier ingredients. Pure
hemp extract is the way to go in order to avoid inhaling any additional
ingredients that are not good for your lungs.
Lastly, you’ll want to purchase a hemp extract that is
non-VG soluble. Luckily, these are easy
to find.
E-Liquid Ingredients
Finally, you’ll need the other ingredients that go
into any vape juice formula. Every
e-liquid has a base that consists of two ingredients: propylene glycol (PG) and
vegetable glycerin (VG). You’ll also
want to consider adding flavoring ingredients if you want your CBD e-liquid to
taste like a treat that your palate enjoys.
And, you may wish to purchase terpenes to add additional compounds and
flavor to the e-liquid.
What to Keep in Mind When Making CBD Vape Juice from Scratch
There are a couple of things to keep in mind when
creating your batches of CBD vape juice.
- First, we recommend making small batches
early on so that if you make any errors, you won’t have wasted a ton of
ingredients. - Also, remember that you have to decide how
much CBD to add to your formula. This
depends on your ideal dosage level. The
amount of CBD you add to the formula determines its strength. The strength is measured in milligrams. In this area, you’re free to experiment until
you find your CBD sweet spot. - Lastly, remember that CBD extract has an
expiration date. Pure hemp concentrate
lasts for about two years, so make sure that you purchase just enough to last
you before the date has passed. While
expired CBD extract shouldn’t be harmful, it will likely be far less potent,
meaning that you won’t have the CBD experience that you desire.
Become That CBD DIYer You Were Meant to Be
Making your own CBD vape juice from scratch can be a
highly affordable and enjoyable way to take your hemp hobby to the next
level. Of course, if you’re going to go
this route, it’s important that you follow all the rules properly. Luckily for you, this guide will give you all
of the information that you need in order to get started.
