Do you put them in different bottles? Help...got to get these babies steeping....GOT TO HAVE juice! :)

I sure hope it helps, I got my vape mail from Heather's today and nothing is good so far. I'm so sick of butterscotch but it's the only thing I have right now I really like and can vape for any length of time.
I keep reading about these great samples but I've ordered juice from 5 different vendors and not one free sample. What's up with that?

Thanks for the help!

Put your juice bottles in a Ziploc bag and seal as airtight as you can. Microwave a large bowl of water for a few minutes to get it nice and hot (not quite boiling, but nice and hot). Drop your bag of juice into the bowl of water and let them soak for 2 hours, removing them from the bag every 15-20 minutes and shaking vigorously (or you could live on the edge and shake them while they're still in the bag). When the water has cooled to nearly room temperature, remove your juice bottles and drip a bit to test. If your juices still taste or smell of perfume and/or chemicals, remove the cap and dripper and set in a cool dark place for 24 hours.

Time is the best and only solution for some juices, but a nice hot water bath with lots of shaking can provide a nice jump-start to the steeping process and can transform the flavor/quality of some juices almost instantly.

Thanks retrox.

It's too late this time...I have labels hanging by their last thread. I was in the ultrasonic thread the other day and it seemed everybody was "ultra-steeping" with the tops off the bottles. So my little babies are bathing topless in small pyrex ramekins that are sitting in water in a big skillet on the stove top with the temp on low.

I'll let you know how it turns out. I've got my fingers crossed and I'll probably do it your way next time, this way is a PIT...well...you know. :)
