I have not tried it - but the e cigs with the nicotine juice make me cough - a lot. I find them really irritating to my throat. The cheap-o electronic cigarettes you can get at the convince store, don't do this to me.
Maybe it's the glycerine that makes me cough? I'm not sure - I have used a vaporizer for weed before, and that doesn't seem to irritate me.
I also have kinda messed up lungs, so I may not be the best example.

I haven't....but am looking into it.
I want to know what the best process is....ie...take it to a shatter consistency before blending?
If you find anything let us know...
PEG400 is popular so I've read.

i've heard of people doing this, just sitting some oil and glycerin in a container for a while and giving it a good mix every now and then should work

It's most likely the PG, propylene glycol, in eliquid that made you cough- higher concentrations do the same to me. VG, vegetable glycerin, the other main ingredient in eliquid, will work but be prepared to mix thoroughly, it's fairly thick and tough to mix with other liquids.
Nicotine eliquids use a mix mostly between 50/50 VG/PG and 80/20 VG/PG. PG carries flavor better and is more watery, whereas VG creates more visible vapor and is less irritating to most people than PG.
If you go with PEG, polyethylene glycol, make sure it's PEG 400- other varieties have been shown to contain nasty shit.

...Coughing is not uncommon for the first month or so for some people including myself...I'm using a 70pg/30vg mix with light nic. strength...
...I'm going to make some (had to order the pg/vg, still waiting) but there's lots of recipes out there for making mj ejuice with both hot and cold techniques...What I have read is if running straight vg it's best to have a good vape pen as the thickness of the vg is hard to heat by itself with the cheaper pens like my ego-t pen...I found one vid where the person is doing a 20pg/80vg mix to thin it out a bit, so I'm going to try that ratio first...The bud ratio the person used is roughly 3 1/2 grams for 30ml of liquid....

I did a dose of glycerin tincture this summer. I have no health issues, just was taking as a preventive. Start taking a teaspoon in the morning and one at night, didn't get high per say but felt a little funny during the day, so I dropped the dose down to 1 teaspoon just before bed time. 1 cup lasted me two months at 1 teaspn a day. I felt really really good though out the summer, awesome sleeps. Some interesting side effects were, not having to get up in the middle of the night to pee any more, waking up with raging morning wood, and my morning crap smelt like skunks. Can't say for sure if it did anything, but I didn't hurt.
Itsme.

Regardless, it's still an improvement on the original odor.
