Reminds me of: https://vaportini.com/ https://vaportini.com/ Inhalation must hit pretty hard, any alcohol vape for recreational use would have to be some form of micro-dosing. A small hit if alcohol vape might be a nice anxiety reducer. A functional alcoholics dream, no smell, no bloat, fuck - no calories. Wish it wasn’t addictive. Definitely think this needs more exploration. Could we just make better drugs already. Give me the pill or vape, why must I drink 700 calories and smell like it? Oh, and could I buy it at the grocery store and not have to goto a doctor (dealer) too? Promise to be responsible.

> A functional alcoholics dream, no smell, no bloat, fuck - no calories The biggest problem with inhaling your alcohol is you lose access to your body's mechanism for getting rid of excess in the case of overconsumption. In my younger days, puking probably saved me from alcohol poisoning a couple of times. Breathing it in, you lose that safeguard. It's probably fine for having 1 or 2 drinks, but I'd be wary of an inhales alcohol binge.

  When you drink alcohol, your blood level can increase even after you stop drinking (alcohol is still transferred from intestines to blood). With inhalation, you have almost instantaneous response and can stop before you pass out.

You'd really need to microdose that properly though. I've cleaned my shower with aerosolised alcohol spray. Even with an open window and a cloth on my nose, I got quite tipsy / giggly and ended up with strong headache. I was definitely not functional afterwards, or at least not safe to work. I'd much rather drink a beer. Edit: I misremembered. The product I used was Isopropyl Alcohol, which is not what's mentioned here. Still, leaving as a warning if anyone thinks of trying.

  IPA poisoning is dangerous and can be fatal. Be careful!

    Actually isopropanol is pretty non-toxic. It will get you drunk and is metabolized to acetone, which is a ketone body that is also produced from metabolizing body fat, so your body is well equipped to handle it. Not saying you want to consume isopropanol. Apparently it won’t kill you but you’ll feel like you were poisoned.
