Does letting juices seep "always" make a flavor taste better? When does this not hold true?

[Arctherus]

I was just wondering if there are any flavors or types of flavors that when you seep it, it makes it worse, in taste, and on the atty.

Fruity juices tend to loose a bit of their taste with steeping IMO. Each flavor is going to different for each person though. My DIY Chai Tea tastes great for the first 2 weeks to me but then gets too spicy. Someone else may like it better at that point.

I've never had steeping have an adverse effect on any juice I've tried. Some it helped and some it didn't but it's never made any juice worse for me.

Mine always get better with time, but I am more of a fan of the "heavier" and complex flavors. I can see how lighter, fruit flavors might lose their presence a bit.

I got a bottle of Kona cream(my absolute favorite) from COV (the last time I bought it from there) that was so dark it and rank it was like it had turned it was way over steeped I guess I should have contacted Bruce he probably would have fixed it instead I just started buying it from vaperite untill I found the flavoring to DIY it now when I make a batch and it starts looking to dark I just stick it in the freezer. and I like the 555 from vaporrenu only for about the first month any older then a month and the flavor changes to something else.

The Backwoods brew vendor recommends to steep the juices. I have found it to work if you do not like a juice right out of the box, let it sit for a few weeks and come back to it and the whole flavor profile can change.

It's "steep" and no. I think steeping only helps juices that are flowery/perfumey (from over-flavoring or some creamy flavors) or juices that are a custom blend of multiple flavorings or use hand-extracted flavorings. I think steeping does nothing for single flavoring out-of-the-bottle juices.

The hard and fast rule is: If it's good when you get it ... vape it. If it isn't, let it steep for a week and try it every day or two.

I have dropped bad juices in a box and gone back when I was almost out, looking for something to vape, and found a jewel of a juice that I hated 3 months prior.
