Should I let my nic base sit after mixing?

[Mognar]

Hi,

Just curious if I should let my nic base sit for any amount of time before using. I'm using a 60mg PG nic base, cut to 14%, 50/50.

Thanks in advance!

Also, is soap and hot water enough to clean the mixing equipment that I used for the 60mg nic?

Thanks!

Edit: misread the question.

Your base liquid will not improve flavour wise by leaving it, i just mix mine thoroughly is all and use it. I mix a 50/50 pg vg and just make sure i shake any liquid before i use it in case it separated.

Normal hot wash and detergent is fine for cleaning your gear - i just tend to keep it all away from anything my wife has been doing foodwise i.e. i don't throw it in with the dishes!

As long as it is mixed well there should be no need to let it sit.

I use hot water to rinse my equipment. I'm sure you can use soaps as well but I personally don't like having to worry if I got all of the soap residue off.

Also did you mean 14% or 1.4%

If your Nic base is well mixed, I see no reason to have to wait before using it. Not like it has to steep or anything. Soap and water is all I use to clean my mixing equipment. Good luck with your DIY.

Cheers,

Thanks all.

I purchased a pg based 60mg nic and cut it down to 14mg to start my DIY with. Sorry, not 14%

I'm just excited about trying my first recipe

The VG and PG sat out on the porch for the day and was a bit chilly when I brought it in. I noticed when I mixed it, there are a ton of air bubbles in the mix. Someone at the local store said to let the base sit (steep), so i wasn't sure and wanted to check here.

After you mix vg or pg together it is normal for air bubbles to be in the mix. They will go away in an hour or so. I just use Hot water, no soap to clean with . Everything comes clean.
