Steeping/Breathing Question

[nfields5]

I let my juices breathe for 3 days straight and now the flavor is gone in them. Is there any way to get that flavor back, possibily some additives? Sweetner?

If you leave the cap of your juices for that length of time it destroys them.

And unfortunately I don't think there is any way to regain flavour

Letting them breath, you only want to do that for 8 to 24 hours depending on the size of the bottle. My 120mls I let the cap off for about 12 hours and then let them steep for two weeks. Extra flavoring I might let it off longer till the perfume smell mellows out.

Tea is a solid, so it should be "steeped"..E fluid is not a solid.

Edit: like the last poster said, you only want to let them breath to let out the "perfume" smell which is the alcohol evaporating...

I think we all made a steep mistake when starting out. Good rule of thumb, if the juice smells good when you get it out of the mail, just let it steep... Not breath. Some vendors sell pre-steeped! like Five Pawns. It all depends on flavor and quality of the juice. I had a 200ml bottle of a low end juice I had to let breath for a day..Shake and repeat for almost a week to get the perfume smell to go away. Then it was left tot steep for a over a month, it's finally good to use.
