Letting the juice settle...

[freerangehuman]

Hi all!
I've noticed that flavors are tons better after letting the carts sit for a day or several after refilling. I first noticed with RY4, which also seems to get better after a dozen hits or so. So far I've found Kiwi and Grapefruit are also much improved after curing for a while. I just wonder...why?

Oxygen might help? Shrugs....kinda like letting wine breath to bring out more flavor?

Are you using Taryn's spin trick?

Still not sure, but I know RY4 is brutally harsh and acrid if I fire it up right after a refill.
I suppose a word of advice to anyone with a bottle of a fresh new flavor to try...let it ripen a little in your carts first =)

edit: might try the spin. did my own variation where I stare at the juice, willing it to absorb into the wool. yeah, I think I oughta try the spin

I don't know why this is so either, but it certainly is true, letting the cartos sit after refilling does improve the flavor. 30 minutes does it for me and they vape better, too, after they sit for awhile. I think Michelle 43 is onto something with her post about allowing the juice to breathe.

Does this mean I'm gonna turn into a carto sniffer?

i'm refilling for the first time right now. I did the thermometer trick, got the juice to go down fast, and filled until it didn't seem to want to absorb much more. I'm letting them sit right now, but this is my question. I have them sitting on the mouth end with the battery end up. Is that right? Should they just lay down? Battery side down, mouth side up? I have the .... plug peice in the mouth peice with the battery side up. Tell me if I'm doing anything wrong. Also, if juice gets on the battery part, is it destroyed or will drying it up be okay? I've watched the videos, but they're all a little different. I'll find my own way, just let me know what I really need to avoid.


Also, when I have the carto on the battery I put it in my pocket battery up mouth peice down. Is that okay?


I'm just so clueless right now. lol. This is all brand spankin new to me, but I'm gonna learn as much as I can because I love vapin! I'll never go back to cigarettes again.

I just toss them into my bowl with the condoms and .... plug on and they sit until I decide to vape that flavor again.

If juice gets on the battery end just wipe it off, the only time it can hurt anything is if you are using an auto battery and the juice gets inside the battery. Not really an issue unless you overfill by a fair amount.

Mouthpiece up or down in your pocket shouldn't matter much but some say it works better mouthpiece down. Mine sit in my Leaford's lanyard with the mouth piece up and it works fine.

You'll have it down in no time flat, it really isn't that complicated or picky.
