I tried that. I just don't enjoy vaping custards. Tried numerous times and it's just not my thing.

Wot? No custard's for you?

You really need to pop that seal to let the steeping begin. Not tops off but to let some air in and shake the hell out of it. NT can't be much different from any other juice.
I've had Ahl stay unsteeped for 3 months..pop the seal and it was as if it was FOOB.

*gasp* I hope this works for Radio.
Love me some fresher Radio.

suddenly taking a shine to these new glass bottles

Haven't seen you since your lunch break :laugh:..

The old LDPE bottles were permeable to air. It made steeping a lot more "efficient". The glass bottles (unless the caps suck) will minimize oxidation, so as long as you have an intact seal with the glass bottles, your juice should stay closer so the state it was in when it was bottled. Having said that, there will continue to be an ongoing chemical reaction between the flavoring, nicotine and pg/vg mixture that will eventually age or steep or brew or infuse (or whatever term one wants to use) the eliquid...

Doing homework now....clearly :laugh:

Why wasn't this explained to silly emily when she was b-ing and moaning about glass bottles?!?
*heads off to buy all the radio*

And to open everything else, especially ACB -- which only gets better and better with steeping.
There, back on topic. ;)

Just to make matters worse for you then...temperature and agitation also play into the equation. Keep it cool (don't refrigerate!) and don't shake it and the oxidation process is slower. Heat and agitation speed chemical reactions...

I can't even tell you how much that stinks for me. I have bottles from October and November that have been "steeping" with their caps and seals intact. :facepalm:

I got that a while ago. Look for the born on date. Really liked it but I can't handle that much PG. Don Meagan has a whole fort built out of GCD bottles. It's impenetrable.

Ahh..Don Megan here..Kogijiki to me..I think I got that from the pbib threads..Idk it stuck though.

I would have sworn if Don Megan had a fort it would have been made from Gunstock Walnut..hehe :laugh:

I simply call it .. AGING .. This is why wine usually come in glass bottles. I only get a couple of eliquids in plastic bottles.

There, back on topic. ;)

ACB is around two weeks old..I popped the seal when I got it..shook every day and sampled it down to 30mls. It's pretty perfect with a two week steep imo. Still going strong and on my second 6ml bottle..Them dam aliens. :laugh:

OKay after this 6ml I still have around 20ml left..Will hold to steep more..I think..lol

Methinks you need to stock up, when possible.
Key to NT steeping, for me, is to have way too much to vape.

I transferred my few mls left from June to the Sept bottles, and poured my glass bottle into the original LDP bottle....steep/age away my yummy.

...and ordered some Radio, which will be placed in the darkest corner and not opened or jostled one little bit, till I'm ready for the next bottle.
