steep juices... Myth or reality ???

[hook425]

Really ?? can someone explain why I have to wait a week to suck on my new juices ?

I am trying to understand what happens in the bottle during that week... enlighten me please ?

Thanks !

You don't have to wait if you don't want to, but sometimes steeping allows flavors to develop more and mingle better with other flavors. It's sort of like aging a bottle of wine. Go ahead and try your juice. If it tastes good, vape your head off. If it doesn't just let it sit for a couple of days and try it again.

Think soup or chili. It's always better a day or two after it's made. Same principle, gives a little time for the ingredients to work together. In my experience aging does help some juices come alive, others not so much but you don't HAVE to wait, it isn't law lol.

I'm a bit confused as well. Are we to assume that juice is made when we order it? No one keeps it on the shelf?

A lot of places mix the juice fresh to order. I know that my two favorite vendors do this and include the suggestion in the packing slip to let the juice steep. I'm sure there are some places that will mix up batches and let them sit. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but some of us don't want a juice that's been sitting on a shelf for who knows how long. That's the reason I won't buy prefilled cartomizers. I have no idea how long that's been in someone's inventory waiting to be sold. Yuk....

I would think that a vendor does not make alot of juice and have it sitting around on a shelf...
and then have no one order that particular flavor for awhile. Too costly and takes up space.

I also agree that some juices I get..are great right from the bottle, but there are some that I have
had to heed advice here and let them "steep"...and it does get rid of some of that chemical smell that some come with.

Aged like wine...... I think I agree there as well, but who knows, could be my imagination.
