Steeping BWB question-caps on or off?

[dberkham]

I was lucky enough to get some of this liquid about a month ago (no RY4 though) and it didn't really do much for me out of the mailbox. I'm relatively new to vaping so maybe I just can't appreciate it yet. I let it steep in the dark with caps off for about two weeks and revisited it. While the flavor and color has changed, it still doesn't really knock my socks off and it seems really harsh for a 12 mg juice. I ordered Casablanca, Malty Toffee, Malty, Caramel Capp, and Applewood. I really don't taste the flavors as they have been described by many reviewers and on Don's website. My question is; did I ruin it by taking the caps off? I've read other posts here about steeping and there doesn't seem to be any agreement as whether to leave caps on or off. Your opinion is much appreciated.

I think it is 24 hours with the cap off or 2 weeks in the dark with the cap on. Two weeks with no caps seems like too long. You probably don't have much flavor or nic left in there.

BWB eliquids aren't knock your socks off flavor, it's really a more subtle just enough flavor. If your taste buds didn't taste it when they were new, it is probably not the eliquid for you right now. I'm surprised at least one of those weren't enough flavor for you new.

There are plenty of vendors that sell double or triple flavors for people that need extra flavor to taste anything.

Recap those babies and try them again in a month.

Thanks for the advice. I'll have to order some more and try again I guess.

I tried doing the steeping both ways and I don't like any of the three flavors I got. Disappointing really because of all I read about BWB. The three I got are Cola, Malty and Bluebacko. I really want to like them but even after a month they still taste blah...

I just traded someone for some Malty and what I got sent was a nicely steeped 10ml bottle that has turned orange. The new bottle I had last week was completely clear. And wow is it good.

I have discovered improved flavor by holding the fire button a couple of seconds (on my battery box mod, 3.7 v) before starting to draw on MV dual coil cartos. take a looooooooong draw. Only way i get flavor on vanilla bean. Malty Toffee, not so much heat needed, flavor is very subtle. I will get more of the Malty Toffee (SP?) and try some other flavors from BWB. I have bought some really bad juice, BWB is purdy doggone good. davido

I have found just the opposite to be true, especially of the Malty. It only has 30% PG and I found there was very little TH. The flavor is very subtle also. I actually bought a stronger tobacco juice at 100% PG to mix with the Malty and find it pretty good. I rather enjoyed the RY4 and found it was actually good straight out of the package, but again, a little light on the TH for me. The flavor seemed to actually change almost overnight, though. I didn't have it long enough to let it steep. Wish I could get some more and soon!
