In another thread, I posted the following:
So- I'd be interested in hearing different experiences with premixed flavor bunches and single flavors vs. combining varieties of flavors themselves, as well as a chemical/scientific explanation of the process if anyone is qualified to even guess at such a thing?
Thanks for your responses.
"Steeping" has to do with the mixing of the flavors with one another and becoming homogeneous in a propylene glycol (or vegetable glycerin) solution.
In a premixed flavor batch with the flavorings already fully in solution, it should be easily miscible with a PG base/PG nicotine without steeping time needed. The steeping would have been done by the "100%" PG solution, right?
I have to wonder if "Steeping" came about when people were mixing PG-based flavors into VG bases or mixtures of the two. Or from people using other-alcohol extracted flavorings or menthol that needed to be dissolved further into the mix as a whole.
