steeping is killing me!

Steeping is something you do with tea... aging is the proper term, you age juice, wine, etc. and to be honest, "steeping" juice is a waste of time with non NET juices. Try it out when you get it, if you like it vape it. It may get better as it ages, it may get worse. As far as NET juices go, then yes, aging does improve flavor due to the complex chemistry of the juice. I have found that the flavor characteristics in NET's do improve over several weeks... but they never last long enuf to get past 5 or so weeks anyway...

Very interesting you comment on worse. I seem to take a very strong flavor (I LIKE!) and as it ages the flavor drops. This seems to be accompanied by a very dark color and increase in viscosity. It appears certain blends will hit the mark in a few days then on to the refrigerator.

manual steeping is da best .. but u need to have lots of patient .. usually for me i will steep it from 2 weeks to 1 month .. depends on the juice ..
i will shake the juice once every 2 days until end of steeping .. but all this steeping is depend on the juice .. not all juice need steeping

I am planning on ordering some e-juice from ECblends this coming weekend. Should I let them steep for a week or two before I vape them or can I vape when they get here?

I too dislike the wait that comes with steeping, therefore I decided to order pre-steeped juice instead. I got some from Five Pawns that has a date of 12/1/13 and tastes amazing! I also ordered from The Vapor Chef which is made to order and didn't want to wait for it to steep so I just decided to vape it and see what it tastes like. It too was amazing, so I'm not sure if steeping is really necessary or not.

Most people forget that liquid purchased on the internet has steeped for 2-5 days between the time you order it and the time your order arrives.
