Steeping and nic question

[udlike2no2]

Well I just got my BWB 12mg 555,RY4,Malty Toffee,Peach and Blueberry today and yes I am in heaven and I now know what all the yummy yummy talk is all about. Havnt tryed the 555 or RY4 yet but have tried V4L 555 and Nhaler's 24mg RY4 and I love them both so BWB should be good also. Peach is good but I think the Blueberry is better and the Malty toffee is out of this world.

Ops sorry back to my question, is the steeping more or less for juices with nic so they mix better over time and taste better or is it the same for 0mg juices also. And if not the less nic the less time it might have to steep?

Steeping allows time for the flavors to fully mix, often throughout rather thick VG.
If yours tastes good, vape it !!

My BWB order was good right out of the mailbox so good I cant believe it could be any better if I let it steep. No worries tho cause it'll be all vaped up before It has a chance to steep LOL

I think steeping is way over rated, Ive been at this for quite some time now and if a juice isn't ready and I don't like it with in one week then I'm never going to like it. I also prefer fresh Nic over old, so these people that want to steep there juice for 5-6 months god bless em and to each there own as I call it, I want mine fresh. sure it takes a little time for everything to mend together but your talking about a little bottle of juice here. Personally I have always thought it was a bit of a marketing thing to get people to buy more juice too, ya people wont like that I said that and I will probably get jumped for saying it, but like I said I have been at this for a while now and there hasn't ever been one juice that after a week if I didn't like it then all of a sudden 2 months later I have, in fact for me it is pretty much when I get it I either like it or I don't, can it get a little bit better after about a week ? sure it can, but not to much better, it may turn a bit darker too because of the Nic, OK just my 2c I like mine as fresh as I can make it or buy it.!

Yeah I agree but my 555 and RY4 have just a little taste in both that is kinda like a strange a chemical taste, and both have the same taste. I had nhaler's RY4 and V4L carto's prefill 555 and they where great, the new juice is close but that one little taste. The peach and blueberry and malty are fine so i was just hoping it needed to sit maybe a few days to a week.

I thought steeping was a bunch of hype, too... but BWB juice REALLY DOES need to steep! Honestly, some of his juices take some time to fully develop... which is weird... but definitely true in my experience. Blueberry, Malty, Cola, Root Beer, and E-Joker were great right out of the mailbox and didn't really change... but a LOT of his other flavors really pop if you let them sit in a cool, dark place... Maple Tobacco, Applewood, Casablanca, RY4, Vanilla, Cherry Tobacco, Cappucino, Waffles, Dulce, and even Malty Toffee really changed... some I didnt like or couldnt taste, so I let them steep and they really pop now... haven't experienced this with any other supplier...

Having said that, everyone has their own opinion and is entitled... try it for yourself and see! Im a believer...

EDIT: 10-14 days is a good rule of thumb... some people leave the cap off for ~12-24 hours, then cap and let sit... I just let them sit, shaking them up periodically when I remember

Well you are saying the same thing about the same juice flavors from him so i have to agree and its not just me 8)

I just started vaping Saturday, and see why everyone says to let the juices "steep". I got a bottle of Monster flavored juice that tasted like perfume/florals/incense. I assume it isn't supposed to be that way, and from what peeps in the chat said, I should just store it and try later. I was also recommended to "speed" up the process by hot water, has anyone had experience with that, good or bad?

I love BWB tobacco flavors but they do need to steep for at least a week for the full tobacco to come through. I just throw them in a box and forget they are there for a week, I don't bother with cap off steeping or anything like that. I just let it sit a week and the tobacco is great. Most other flavors I have tried are either good out of the mail or they aren't and steeping hasn't improved them any. I only steep fresh mixed tobaccos.

I know i have had a few juices that didn't taste real good and were totally clear.After letting them set for a few weeks they darkened and were much better to vape.

Not exactly what I was hoping to hear, but it seems to be the general consensus from everyone I have chatted with as well.

I got a bottle of cantaloupe juice, crystal clear when it arrived, after about a week and a half it developed a orange/pinkish tint to it. Can't really explain that but really I doubt that I just failed to notice the color.

I've been vaping for a couple months now and I was skeptical of steeping at first but I have definitely noticed that the flavor of juices change a little over time. Some get better, some get worse, some get stronger some get weaker.

 

[Wuzznt Me]

I've got about 3/4 of all the BWB flavors in one size bottle or another. It took me about three orders to get enough to steep. They were all good right out of the mailbox which made them about a week old when I got them. I have noticed a few of the flavors get a little more mellow after about two weeks. Applewood definitly got a lot better and Vanilla Bean gets more flavorful every day it sits.

ETA Malty Toffee was definitly an excellent choice. I usually put a few drops of Vanilla Bean in mine just to make my eyes roll back in my head lol.

I have about a dozen juices so far. BWB Cherry Tobacco has been the most analog experience (in a good way) right out of the box. At the same time I got BWB Espresso. It was a 15 on a scale of 1-10 for instensity. It tasted like stuffing a dozen burnt coffee beans in my mouth and chomping. It was actually offensive. After a week of steeping it seems to have tamed a wee bit. I am going to leave it while on vacation next week and hope it is palatable when I get back. I'll let you know.

I only looked into steeping because I noticed most of my flavors got better the longer I had them. I'm a fairly light vaper (one clearamizer full a day), so it tends to take a while for me to go through juice. Almost every juice I've gotten tasted real perfumey when I first got them, and it eventually goes away & I can taste the juice. I'm thinking it was because I was unknowingly steeping them.

 

[proficio]

I just got my first order from Don(Backwoods) and although they taste great I put them aside to steep for a week or two. There seems to be an under tone in them all that Im sure will go away after everything steeps. Its almost like those old wax vampire teeth we all wore for halloween when we were kids if that makes any sense.........lol. Flavors are 555, Backo and Mentol Medium.
