The ultrasonic works great. I know that some recommend leaving the bottles uncapped, so I took it one step further...I pour the juice from one bottle to another, allowing the oxygen in the air decant the juice like a red wine. I took two samples that had both been put through the ultrasonic, and decanted one...it was even better. So I've started doing this step after speed steep. You might try this technique by itself; can't hurt!

Just put water in it? I'd actually get one for both steeping and cleaning my mods and such. You have any good reco's for one?

I am a non steeper:facepalm: I enjoy my Ahlusion juice out of the mail box and if anything it just seems to get better with time. I do think some of their more complex teas etc. need more time. I have just honestly found that if I can't stand a juice OMB I'll never grow to love it...but I'm weird:D

Totally agree with ya there! I have so many juices they all get steeped over time anyways. But some I just can't get enough of so they don't get much steeping lol.

YES, HAPPY TURKEY DAY! I'm thankful for all my vapin' buddies here on ECF!

Woody, you're a bad influence...I also ordered 8 samples earlier...look forward to comparing notes...do you speed steep yours in an ultrasonic cleaner?

This cracks me up. I always talk about a steeping contraption. This is mine. I have an older UC and rigged it to spin with the assist of a 3/4 driver and an old drill.
I don't use it much, had too I felt with MOV juice. I'm not sure steeping is that big of a deal to me. Don't get me wrong I love the orange/gold GVC becomes after a couple months...but I go through it too fast anymore:(.
I do have a juice cabinet and shake then remove caps but only until I have a clean atty. And granted I have tasted alcohol or other tastes I shouldn't and will steep.
I rarely if ever mix juices and have to rewick if changing juice. It is rare I have to re wick as I have plenty of atty's do deal.
I also don't drip except in a Spheroid. I have owned most every dripper and just not a fan.
I asked Tyleris about the Lime Cream and Iowa on the Raspberry Cream about steeping and I am enjoying those flavors mail box ready.(Well D is) they aren't really mine.
I am looking forward to the Lemon Cream.
As I have mentioned Ahlusion is the only company I trust with fruity or desert flavors.

Indeed Happy Thanksgiving to my GP Fam! To our friends up there, hope it was great! I'll be carrying the X/GT combo as we travel this year. We switch, sometimes we cook and invite, and sometimes we travel.

Also, if you noticed my earlier post, we completed our GP line by adding the Piccolo. I believe that completes it, no?

You know, all this fruity talk has sparked my curiosity on these flavors. Though we started off on fruits and quickly grew tired of them, these creme flavors do sound yummy.

I vape one juice, VC. I get worried that I'll grow tired of it, seems unlikely atm. This Lime flavor sounds delish! Just can't bring myself to pick any up. Afraid it will hit the classies :(

This is the one I bought after much research:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CGHVQUI/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

You can certainly buy cheaper ones, Harbor Freight, for example, but this one is stainless steel, with a stainless steel basket, and a 90 minute timer. You will need to steep in glass bottles, as the cavitation produced by the USC doesn't play well with some soft plastics. I usually rubber band the bottles together so they're not banging around, put them upright in the basket, add hot water and run it for an hour, rest for an hour, repeat for 3 or 4 cycles.

I've also used it for attys, mods, jewelry, eyeglasses, etc. Heck, I've even made Liposomal Vitamin C in it. Very useful little tool.

You guys ready to have your mind blown by the ultimate steeping contraption?

Put a hook on the side of your clothes dryer. Hang your juice on it in a bag (mine is mesh). That's it. All done. The gentle shaking and radiant heat from the dryer works wonders on juice.

You must do a lot of laundry...

That's a lot of outfits ... And a lot of steeping.

All my new juice sits at room temp in a cupboard with the other steeped stuff I'm vaping with the caps off for 3 days. Then it's to the dryer bag for 3-5 weeks. I just toss a date on them when I throw them in there, but I pretty much know the colour they all need to be anyways.

No.

But my wife does !


We have three daughters , they wear a TON of clothes. I think there's probably 5-8 loads a week of laundry being done.

How nice for you! Maybe she could offer a steeping service & make a few bucks at the same time...or loonies, or whatever Canadian dollars are called.

You and I are parallel with thinking of ho hum flavors and tiring of such. I've done that with most all top shelf fruit/desert flavor flavs. Not Ahlusion, I don't know what it is....maybe it's Tyleris...Wut.
I have this thing with fake flavor taste, I haven't eaten candy in 20 years because...IT'S FAKE.
I just love Ahl.
