Got a couple of sample eliquids and opened to smell them and got a strong alcohol smell from two of them. I took the caps off yesterday and left them off for a day so far. Still can smell a bit of alcohol in them. How long should I let them breath?

Shaking vigorously twice a day, breathing a few hours twice a week but I would fill a tank with a couple mls and taste as the week goes on.........

I wouldn't let them breathe longer than overnight. I'm at a point where I no longer let my eliquid breathe, I actually don't remove the caps until 1st use. Extended exposure to air can cause accelerated oxidation.
and the actual alcohol will still be there ;-)
if it taste fine, vape it. i wouldn't worry about a little smell of alcohol as it will never all go away. once it's mixed with pg/vg it becomes harder for it to evaporate.

Thank you for the responses. Learn something new everyday with vaping. :)

Also try a warm 10 min warm water / hot 100 - 120 deg (below the top) bath a couple times, shaking in between then tack the tip off the second bath while warm ...........
