steeping & flavors mixing

[BAMvaping]

Hello again!

Another question from this vaping noob.

I have about 6 small bottles steeping without their tops on in a nightstand away from light and dust. When I open the door to shake the bottles a bit every day, the air is - obviously - quite strong of all these different flavors.

My question is does having these bottles in such close and closed proximity pose a risk of flavors mixing from the fumes?

Probably not. Just wondering though

I have a vape Station and steep all my eliqs in the lower drawer. I've never experienced any mix of flavors through the bottles.

I've never had an issue with that either.

Nope. Just enjoy the candy drawer aroma for a while

Awesome. Thanks everyone! Got a fresh batch that's just about to come out of steep. Did a semi-quick steep in a bath of hot water and now they've been left to sit for a while. Darker colors, hopefully better flavors!

there should not be any flavor mingling with the tops off just from the fumes but I do want to let you know that HOT water baths will break down the flavorings and mute the flavors (which is the opposite of what I want to happen)
Darker colors is not always an indication of better flavors (there are some very good high end commercial eliquids that are perfectly clear and stay that way - please stay away from "novelty" colored eliquids ie: pink, green, etc as these are using food colorings which may have ingredients that are not safe to inhale in vapor form) but is more likely the result of the sweeteners starting to carmelize

I use an ultrasonic cleaner to speed steep my eliquids (45 minutes seems like a week of normal steeping) and I keep the water temp below 100 degrees farenheit (38 C)

also I try my eliquids right after mixing and shaking - if it tastes horrible at that point I dispose of it right away because steeping is not going to improve it enough to make it palatable

just my 2 cents

I would not suggest hot bathing your e-juices because it can degrade the nicotine and flavor

ive got a draw set aside for steeping leave them usually 7 days depends though as some can be bought ready steeped it does make a difference though

Do you like ultrasonic cleaner ?
