That Melon Berry Frost (with Breeze)- is amazing. I have no tried a couple of their melon juices and that one is my hands down favorite! It has it all - cantaloupe, honeydew, watermelon, hint of berries - with a light minty exhale! Keep it on the list :)

So glad to hear this...I have this one on the way as well! How strong did you find the "breeze" menthol option to be? That's what I ordered as well...in the past I have found that menthol overpowers the flavor in others I have tried, so I am curious how strong the Ahlusion menthol is when mixed with the fruity flavors.

I can only imagine what their site is going through today. I hope they were prepared.

I find it interesting that they are having a 20% off sale -- I mean it's not a holiday, new site, or grand opening or anything. They already have scores of customers, but I guess this was their way of saying thank you to those customers and welcome to the new ones.

I've put in 3 orders in a week. I'll be QUITE okay if they don't have a sale for a while;)

Oh wait, I know! It's a Happy Birthday to Alley sale! Today is her birthday:)

Okay, it strikes me that aside from Ahlusion itself, one of the recurring themes of this thread is the pain and anguish we all experience when we get our Ahlusion orders and we're anxious to dive in, but then we have to muster up the self-discipline it takes to put it away for a good steep.

I'm going to throw this out there with the caveat that I haven't tried this myself but I have a good and trustworthy friend who swears by it. Has anyone here tried "force steeping?" In case you haven't heard of it, here's the drill: Seal a bottle in a plastic bag and put it into a glass of hot tap water until the water reaches room temperature. Doing this process once is equivalent to about a week of natural steeping.

I'd be anxious to hear anyone's thoughts and opinions on this topic, especially those our resident steeping guru, Eleanor. Could this be the end of the seemingly endless days of torment that we are all experiencing waiting for our Ahlusion orders to reach optimum steepage?

Tez, hope to hear more about this speed steeping. I am out ofSleighride. Waiting is tough, steeping will be torture.

Yeah, I haven't worked up the courage to try it yet, but I was hoping others might know a little more about the pros and cons before desperation gets the best of me! :)

Yes- I'd read good things about it on here. .I couldn't decide....so I ended up ordering all on my list. : )
So...does the 4-7 days (reg shipping) count as steeping time? (I sure hope so! Lol)

D25, I had no intention of buying a True Stone DT today, but in addition to my Ahlusion order I did. I guess you inspired me...DAMN YOU. ;)

It's time for me to get back on the classies to make up for this day. hahahahaha. Out with the old, in with the new.

Lastly, is that True Stone DT big belly on the inside as well, or does the chamber go straight down?

I would still take the cap off first to get some natural air circulating (the bottles haven't really gotten any normal air introduced until we open the cap) and then recap and try. I don't know how the process for evaporating the OEA would work, but we will find out.

I've heard about this technique, but never tried it. I'm currently using the steep time as an excuse to force myself to vape lesser juices (in between vapes of The Good Stuff, of course! ;))

Yeah, I've had the caps off for a couple of days already, so I'll probably do a little more research on it and perform a little experiment. The only problem is that since all of these juices are new to me (meaning I've never tried them fully steeped), it won't really be a controlled experiment.
