I'm newbie, and AFAIK most tobacco or similar flavors need to steep several weeks, but is there any easy recipe for it? I need something easy to start with my DIY liquids.

Actually Soho is the first tobacco I'm finding really essential to steep. Initially the maple syrup flavor note was overwhelming -- the flavoring smells just like Hangsen Highway -- which mellowed after a week but still didn't taste that good. After 2 weeks I'm really liking it. I guess it was vapable before, after all I had Highway factory ejuice that still tasted like that 3 years later ... Mixed at 3%, may try 2.5%.As Alter said, Hangsens are usually vapable soon after mixing, but the flavor will be weak until after a week of steeping and will mature after 3 to 4 weeks or more.
Try Hansen Flue Cured, Tobacco, and Red USA Mix. FA SOHO is also a good flavor that's vapable on day 1 and better after a week or two.
The secret is to start mixing new juice several weeks before you run out of the last batch. Once you get ahead of the game you can always have mature juice ready to vape.
Could you please, tell the percentage?Try Hansen Flue Cured, Tobacco, and Red USA Mix. FA SOHO is also a good flavor that's vapable on day 1 and better after a week or two.

As to shake and vape, nothing's much good until the bubbles (essential) rise out of it and almost everything benefits from at least overnight. Most of my low flavoring tobaccos I haven't been able to detect much change after a couple days. There can be a slightly more refined taste to some mixes and this can be quite significant if that's what it needs, but the flavor is usually objectively close after overnight.
@Astur, I am one of those people @tazzle mentioned, who like a simple single flavor mix of Am4A (Inawera). This is one tobacco that I actually prefer fresher, verses more aged. I mix at 3.5% and the sweet spot for me is begins 3 days after mixing, and lasts for two weeks. In that window of time I find it very reminiscent of the way my Grandfather's pipe tobacco pouch smelled (the fresh tobacco; not as it burned in the pipe). It is very fragrant with lots of the subtle aromatic notes. After two weeks many of those subtle notes seem to disappear, or become masked, by the more dominant base tobacco notes.Single flavor Inawera AM4A is pretty good.
When I first learned that I liked the Am4A relatively fresh; I whipped up a large bottle, only to discover that I didn't like it near as much when it aged beyond two weeks. I now know better, and only mix what I can comfortably vape in that two-week window.
