Ahhh, well I rarely do those. With store-bought juices, I have just been steeping everything the same, so I lost track of that consideration. I am a "pastry" person.

The cost of Vaperstek nicotine is the most expensive that I encountered from postings here. At that price, I expect it to be excellent, not good. The TH version of VT is obviously not the best deal if you want minimal TH or cloud.
But, posting about the brands and their characteristics will serve all, some positively and some negatively. Thanks for that.
Some flavors benefit from steeping - tobacco, custard, vanilla, creams, other bakery notes like cupcake etc. Other juices sort of meld together after a day or "Calm Down" as I call it. Like sharp fruit notes such as citrus. Sometimes this is a good thing sometimes not. Menthol I like fresh and as it calms down a little is not as pleasing to me. You will figure it out. Takes trial and error just like buying juice online.
I am in Canada and getting nic across the border has been hard. I had 2 liters of VT nic taken by customs. I just ran out of the VT nic I did get across and I am having to use other nic. ACK what a difference. If you can get VT nic and can afford it , do it. Using VT nic makes DIY much easier with fabulous tasting juice.
I don't use the TH nicotine personally ... however, I am OK paying $125/L
Even at $125 ... DIY eLiquid is really cheap to make.
I am just pointing out, the TH nicotine from VT is the best deal out there ... MFS nicotine is not any better than VT TH nicotine ... you just pay more for it.

If you are a pastry person you really should consider VT nic. I make alot of pastry type juices and you want a nic with no TH and no taste. Nothing is worse in my opinion than making a chocolate or pastry and getting a huge peppery taste and TH.
My opinion is if using a peppery nic it is good for tobacco's or a spicy vape.
The vt throat-hit i've not tried, but based on the vendors description, then it's the same nic as in the premium, from chemnovatic, which has been flushed with O2 to give it bite, meaning in translation, slightly oxidized chemnovatic nic. Now as the nic is reviewed to be clear, then it could not have gotten a lot of oxidation imho as those two; color and oxidation-rate are mutually exclusive. Yes, some oxidation gives a little more bite, TH and pepper, but in those small amounts as must have been going on with that nic, then I don't think it's much different really. Also, it has been reviewed before here, as still being about 20% lower TH than other good TH nics... Second, as ive stated before, then I don't get the price difference whatsoever in the two nics from VT, as the cheaper one seems to need an additional job/time done to make it, but that's an entirely other story though..
Hey megahertz, I believe we have dispelled that myth. Cause why would they take expensive nic run o2 and then sell it for dirt cheap. Half what they paid for it. Its probably just another nic type from them lower cost obviously.
Actually.... Vaperstech TH nic really sounds a lot like RTS!

Vaporstek TH to me , and the reason i decided to try it was because everyone at another very popular forum (when i used to be a member there) raved about how good the TH was by Vaporstek .
I do not like a strong throat hit , i have always much preferred neutral tasting nic but when i tried others i was always disappointed because they all had a strong odor and they were not always crystal clear.
I questioned the people who were saying to get the TH over the regular about this but they said even though it says TH, it is smoother and more neutral than anything else out there and the price is right .
I had tried a few others before this and i was currently ordering from MFS which i was pretty satisfied with . So i ordered the VT TH for $10.00 for 100 mg and 120 ml i bought it and i was floored how good it was.
I was so thrilled i went back on the forum and thanked the people sincerly who convinced me to try it , i have been using it ever since and it's always crystal clear , smooth and with no odor that i can distinguish .
Makes every recipe that i make shine , stuff stays crystal clear for a very long time , never seen it change color yet . That is why i said it's the "best bet by far" .
Of course this is only my personal opinion and i don't think the people in the latest comparison tests agree but thats OK .

Thanks Jeremy! I would guess it was chemnovatic's uncleaned nic(which Jimi states they get from india and uk and then cleans additionally), since Kevin specifically states its chemnovatic nic, but chemnovatic could be supplying their uncleaned nic to him, which would be sold cheaper, as it has one less job done to it, in addition to the cleaned one, but a) I don't have proof, and b) I've read from several, that Kevin is a real good and honest guy, so not really comfortable saying something, especially without proof 
Not according to Kevin (VT owner) who stated it was the same nic but didn't elaborate on what made it 'TH' ... my guess is that it is simply older than what they allow for their premium nic.
Yeah if anything its the same nic Before they clean it to the high grade level.
The vt th is really cheap, and gets a lot of good reviews. I meant to order some a while back cause it was so cheap but forgot. For the money it was at, it was a no brainer to try. Even if the th was a little lower than my liking, it was cheap.
Haven't had a chance to try it myself yet, only the high grade vt in the nic test.

I don't understand the price difference either but i hope it doesn't change , imo it's a steal at that price.
Does VT TH Nic have more of a TH than RTS ?? I Like RTS in ALL respects but would like a little more TH in my Nic if possible.
I have no idea since i never tried RTS , i only compared it to a few i was using before . I honestly don't notice a "throat hit" from it , it's just very very good quality nic in my view that was better than others i was using.
Thanks for the come back herb, I have only used RTS, MBV, and ECX, all in Unflavored mixes.
Edit: ECX is NOT "crap" either. I use it quite a bit in my Unflavored mixes, some like it and some don't, but none of it is "crap". It's a personal preference type of thing, blanket statements do not apply to taste in E-Liquid (except for maybe anchovies that is
).

I just ordered a 120ml bottle of 36mg/ml-PG ECX Nic for my freezer, and a 30ml bottle of the same for immediate use, along with my RTS 36mg/ml-PG Nic. I like it and it's just like Jeremy said it would be. Thank You for helping me get started Jeremy, I could have wasted a lot of time and $$ if I tried to do this on my own. This whole thread is just Too Cool, Thanks to all.

I'm trying to stock up for the vapocalipse. I have 500 ml of nude nicotine and 1 liter from my freedom smokes due to their wonderful black Friday 35 dollars a liter sale. I'm interested in the th nic from vt. It sounds like I may like it if it's not super throat hit. Recommendations? I just started mixing for my mother in law too. She turned me onto vaping and got me off cigarettes. But when I told her the fda ruling that will happen, that she would start smoking cigarettes again, and she doesn't want to. So I have to plan for the both of us.
