Good morning Army. 70 today, but rainy. :(

Daniel, it is normal for most juices to darken or change color. Few don't (Dark Horse is one example). Two week HA is good to go. It will continue to steep beyond that but its still good at two weeks. Everyone is different.

The industry (Manufacturers) even have a name for it called... "Tanning". I have read that it is from exposure to light but mine does it in a dark closet (Tanning that is). ;)

Sorry enough that I told Oxy that I'd be more formal with it from now on, and call it Ox-Gard from now on out..

I think Chak would need the Ox Gard....He does live in the Thailand area if im not mistaken... oh pardon me that water buffalo im thinking of...

Dayam. The last of my ten week steeped Shadow just went into the VV Grand. The Oompa is nearly gone too !
Am I the only one who suspects 'The Better the Mod Works, The Faster the Juice Goes' ?

And some will say it is the nicotine being exposed to air.

Yuppers - I have read that one too. Fact is when I first noticed this "Tanning" effect I started Googling it to find out what was going on and found "Air", light, and some claim just hanging around long enough even with the lid seal never broken.

Personally I don't know about "Sealed Tanning" I have never been able leave a new bottle sealed for more than the time it takes me to walk back to the house from the mail box. :facepalm:

I realize it is subjective but IMHO I think the taste is better (more mellow) once the color change happens.

Vape it while its clear less gunk on the coils :) besides, the juice is self adjusting for VT, continues to taste better as the tastebuds die...

OK - I give up what is VT?

As far as dead taste buds after 55 years of smoking I am sure that any buds that are not dead are surely in a comatose state. :blink:

VT = Vapers Tounge when you loose the flavor of what you are vaping after a while... same as smell, when you are around a smell long enuf, you dont smell it any more

Which is why it is recommended to hydrate (drink water) and switch flavors regularly.
Just finished watching Hanzel and Gretal Witch Hunters. The movie was only so-so, but the brunette that played Gretal was exceptional !

Got it and yes that has been a big problem for me until I started switching flavor around.

@Papaw, I don't drink water (yes I know I should) I always have a glass of Mtn-Dew sitting on the end table. As far as switching flavors regularly I have had to resort to having 3 and sometime four attys sitting on the end table all with different flavors. For me about 15 minutes of tooting one flavor it is time to shift to something else.

It is a bit of a hassle but I have discovered that if I do the switch-a-roo game I taste flavors that in the past I would have told you I can't taste. None as intense and nuanced as some of you "Wine E-Juice Connoisseurs" can but much better than my past experience while puffing on the same flavor for days at a time.
