Just a little confuzzled....

I'm new to the vaping thing and all the e-juice terms... I'm curious as to what steeping is and how it's done. From what I've been reading, it is supposed to make the juice taste better. I have been trying different flavors and so far have only found 3 or 4 that I like. (some were my fault as I had to try ones like rose, lavender, and lilac out of sheer curiosity... they taste like soap btw...) I really want to find a good flavor that I can live with and not have to keep testing ones. (I'm currently also looking for a good coffee, plain cappuccino, apple cider, and mojito just because those are my favorite drink flavors! Any recommendations?)

My other question is, what is dripping and what is involved?

Thanks in advance for reading and any help that might be offered!

Steeping is just letting your juices sit for a period of time for the flavors to meld together. A lot of times you will get the most out of your juices if you let them steep. I like to shake my juices every now and then while they are steeping. Let juices(especially fresh or made to order) steep for about a week at a minimum. Some can take upwards to 3 weeks or more to get the most out of them.

As far as flavors, honestly trying them out is the best way to find one thats right for you. I like Halo's juices best so far, but there are tons of places to get great juice. Its just up to what you like and what suits you.

Dripping...you just add two or three drops to an atomizer and using a drip tip you get a few vapes directly off of the atty. Its an art that takes time to get the hang of, but you can get a lot of flavor and tons of vapor if done right.

I'm sure there is a lot more to add, but thats all I can think of right off :/

Here's a video about dripping that might make it easier to understand

Dripping is a good way to sample flavors and gives a really pure taste. Good luck!

Just a heads up, the vast majority of the time juices that are nasty before they steep will be nasty after they steep. In my experience, steeping can remove some of the perfume taste you get from some vendors, but you're better off just buying from a vendor that doesn't taste that way to begin with.

Give www.aliceinvapeland.com a shot. They've grown incredibly popular in the short time they've been open (only 2 months now) because they are vastly superior to any other vendors I've tried. You don't ever get that perfume/chemical taste from any of their juices. They do have a limited selection, but I'd rather order from someone who has 15 juices that they have perfected, than someone who has 100 flavors and they all taste like cough syrup.

I discovered them about 2 months ago after trying samples from 30+ vendors, and they are the only vendor I order from now.
