Yes, in fact I used to brew beer myself until one day I dropped a large glass carbuoy on my foot, shoving a shard of glass through it and turning my wife's kitchen floor into a mixture of Wort and blood. That was the end of that hobby, mostly because of a desire to keep my wife around
Oh dear
I have to admit I am totally ignorant of all things vaping. I had no idea it was something like cooking or brewing beer or making wine. I will have to look into this further. I think it's great that you're learning about EE, and I support that 100%.
Well, isn't that vaping is just like brewing beer. I just meant, that is a good comparison - you said "I drink beer but it's not a hobby", so I used an example as to how beer
could be a hobby.
Vaping for most people is a replacement for smoking. A much healthier way to ingest nicotine and handle an addiction to inhaling smoke/vapour
I am sure for most vapers, the vast majority, that is all it is. But for some of us it becomes a hobby - the ECF forum, by far the biggest vaping forum, has over 15 billion posts in 8 years from 250 thousand members.
There are loads of aspects that can turn into a hobby. Actually there is one that
is a lot like brewing beer/making wine: mixing one's own e-liquids. You can buy different concentrated flavours, and then mix them together in different proportions along with nicotine and a couple of other ingredients, to try to get the nicest flavours when you vape.
For me that's not a big thing, mostly because I suck at cooking/working out flavours!
For me, the main hobby aspect is the hardware/technology. Experimenting with and testing different vaping devices. Different vaping wires, especially for temp-controlled vaping. Trying different coils that vape differently. All that sort of stuff.
