srawas89 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Where can you get glycerin? I want to find it at a major chain of stores or something like that (I dont wanna order it online). I found a bottle at Walgreens but it was in the cosmetics isle. THe bottle said its a 100% pure glycerin but I would rather find food grade glycerin. So where can I find it?

mattarios2 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 yeah, don't get the stuff in cosmetics made my shit taste like soap. Go to Michaels crafts store in the baking section they carry food grade glycerin, works like a charm, something like $1.50 for 2oz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giant Ninja Robot Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Whole Foods also carries glycerine, I haven't gone to check it out yet though.Any cake shop worth it's salt should carry food grade glycerine as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWlax00 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 how do you add it, and how much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Just dump it in and mix it, for real dry shisha like nakhla i do 5 tsp of glyc and 1 tsp of honey or any type of sweetener.Just add a tsp and see how it is, if still dry ... add another ... and so on and so forth.

thehelios Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Shopping tip: These were the prices per oz for glycerin at the two stores previously mentioned (these prices are from the Miami area fyi)Michaels: 2oz at $2.20: $1.10 per ozWhole Foods: 8oz at $7.36: $.92 per oz 20oz at $16: $.64 per ozYour best bet is to go to Whole foods. Sweet deal at the larger size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
