Help Needed: Fast Steeping Methods

[Tamer El-Meehy]

OK people..I read that faster steeping can be done using ultrasonic jewelry cleaners, and crock pots. I have a few questions:

1. Is this true and tested? or is it still a contentious issue?
2. How fast will the process be in each case?
3. Which method is better and faster?
5. What is the best ultrasonic jewelry cleaner to be used ? hopefully one that doesn't require a special liquid if possible
6. What is the best crock pot to be used?

I've read in the forum that the crock pot method works well. Heat water to 150 degrees and set water level to just below the cap line on you ejuice bottles. Leave in for two hours and then take out and shake well. Put back in for another two hours and then shake up again. Remove the cap(s) and let breath for 2-4 hours. I'll be trying this method soon and hopefully it works as well as others have said.

What Ejab says works GREAT for me. Some juices will still need time to age. Especially tobacco and custard flavors but after four hours in the crockpot they are good enough to vape the next day

So you guys recommend the crock pot over the ultrasonic jewelry cleaner?

It seems to be more about heat than vibrations. The crock pot is the way to go.

I already had the crock pot so that made my choice an easy one. Some will say the UC is better, some say the crock pot is better. I haven't tried a UC but I do know the crock pot works fine for quick steeping

Over the summer a very controlled experiment was conducted using blind testers from this forum across the USA. Three vials of juice were sent to each of us marked "A", "B" & "C". One was unsteeped, another was steeped in a croc pot and the other was steeped in a UC device. Immediately all of us picked out the unsteeped sample (it was lighter in color and not the best tasting). We voted for which was the best of the other 2. One of the other 2 was slightly darker then the rest. All of us selected as our choice the same selection. This was in every case the UC sample. However...each one of us commented that there is only a small difference between these two.

All agreed that there was a slight difference, but not enough to warrant the extra expense and labor involved with a UC.

I have both, but mainly use the CP. Just set it and forget it...

My wife would kill me if I made a move on her crock pot. For this reason I think it's healthier to work with UC

I also found one with a 30 minutes cycle on Amazon. This can reduce the hassle somewhat
