I think I may be missing the "steeping" aspect as well. Yesterday everything tasted like burned peanuts. I have camel, menthol, reeses, wake-n-vape, fire-n-ice, cinnamon, cherry, watermelon, 555, Ry4, and a few others that I can't remember at the moment. For the most part, I have ordered sample bottles though, so that's the plus side. I wouldn't have a clue what to mix to make some of them taste good though. I guess with the tanks on my eGo-T, I could put a few drops of a couple flavors together in a tank, give it a try, and if it's horrible, wash it out and start over. :)

Steeping can def help make some juices taste alot better, and some juices benefit more than others from steeping.
If you dont like a juice in the beginning, put it away and let it steep for a few weeks. Some juices that you thought were just okay or didnt really like at first, you might really like 3 weeks later. And some juices you thought tasted nasty at first, might still taste just as nasty later.:laugh:
If you dont like a juice in the beginning, dont throw it out. Keep in mind that cigs really mess up your tastebuds and they will change quite a bit in the first month or so after you quit. A juice that you really didnt like in the beginning, you might really enjoy once your tastebuds get back to normal. It can also go the other way too though so thats why I dont recommend buying huge bottles of juice for your first month or so of vaping, even if you really like a flavor. Nothings worse than buying a 100+ml bottle of juice that you really liked when you first started vaping, only to find that its "meh" once your tastebuds get back to normal

TamiP, I think the nic level you ordered is a good starting place. That's the level I started with. Even if you decide it's a little too much nicotine after you've vaped it awhile you might want to hang onto it. Some folks will drop the nic level but still keep some stronger stuff on hand for those times when you really get a craving for an analog.

Once you get your pv and juice you'll be able to tell more. Don't forget too, the pv you have ordered is a much better one than what you are using right now. It will be not only different, but much better. It usually takes a while to find juices you like. Try to get sample sizes if you can. Everyone has different preferences in flavors and it may surprise you which ones you will like and dislike.

Also, mynameisrob is right, as your taste buds come back juices will taste different than they will right now. There were a few I liked when I first started and I can't stand them now. lol Take your time, ask questions, read through the threads on ECF. I read through a lot of threads and learn something new almost every day.

Thanks for the information Rob and Marlou. There's just so much to learn and think about, lol. I'm REALLY interested in the comments about how much better the Nebula will be than the e-cig I got. Now I really can't wait until it gets here. LOL Hopefully tomorrow or Thursday at the latest. I'm kind of interested in seeing how the "Blueberry" flavor is that I ordered too. haha
