How To Know If Juice Needs Seeping

[SpinDr480]

Hey All,

I recently heard that most of the longtime vapors seep there juice for a month or so before opening their bottles. I have only been vaping for 2 weeks, so I don't have that luxury. Fortunately for me, my top 3 juices right now taste great right out of the bottle. However, I recently ventured out to a few different stores. Some of them I tested in the store, and other juices I just blindly bought without trying.

In any event, I noticed that many of these newer juices have an almost skunky taste to them. I swear they didn't when I tried them earlier in the store...In particular, the RY4 juice was awful. I was given a sample of RY4 from a coworker and it was great, but this one wasn't vapable.

Anyway, I was just curious as to know if it is just bad juice or if it is because these juices need seeping to soak up the flavors?

Thanks

actually no. there are some instances that juices just don't taste good. let them sit for a week or 2 and try them again. some of them just need to sit and mix together longer than others.

Most Vendors will tell you if their juices need steeping. The smaller Vendors, busier juice specialty vendors or those that mix custom juices usually require steeping. Freshly made tobacco juices always need to be steeped. Larger companies will mix large batches and the juices will sit on the shelf for awhile.

I have noticed that simple fruit flavors are good right after mixing. More complex flavors seem to need some steeping so that the flavors blend a little better. Tobacco flavors need a long steep time. Some flavors need to be used quickly, a Mt. Dew mix I make myself will be tasting great one day and taste like a skunk the next. I also made a cranberry apple mix that I hated fresh but when I tried it again 2 months later it was my new favorite mix as the flavors blended much better.

They way I look at it if it taste good fresh vape away, if its not very good steep it for a while and try it again.

Most juices do need some time to age before they're even remotely close to what they should taste like. With the RY4 you got there I'd say you need to steep it for awhile and try it out. Most NET(Naturally extracted tobacco) juice does need some extensive time to fully transform.

It depends on the juice, as a rule if it tastes or smells like "a tirefire that a diseased elk peed on and then poured perfume on it " then it needs time to steep.

Mt Baker Vapor - Electronic Cigarettes, USA made E Juice, and Accessories...the cheapest place on the net...I use RY4 and 555 (tobacco flavors) from Mt Baker vaper.com right out of the bottle on mail delivery day, and its great..doesn't need steeping...MBV is a specialty vendor and its custom made right before shipping but its good right away...taste the same 1 week or 1 month later as the day it arrived..but I noticed those fruity sweet candy types are much better after being steeped....it all depends where ya buy from...like anything or a resturant, sometimes the food is great and sometimes it sucks...I recommend ya find a place ya like and a few liquids ya like and stick with them
