Steeping Juices with Nic Salt

[EverythingEvil]

I finally just got some nic salt base in and am getting ready to mix up my first batch of nic salt liquids. I seem to remember hearing somewhere that nic salts don't oxidize and break down the same way freebase nicotine does. Is this true? Do juices containing nicotine salts require or benefit from steeping?

Much less is known about nic salts than freebase nic. To make it more confusing turning nic into a salt can be done with several different chemicals.

Hi,
Not the answer to your question, however; IMO
When mixing 0 nic juice, some steeping always seems to help.
Flavor concentrates need to merge with the dilutant.

If you are mixing with familiar flavors and making reliable, consistent recipes;
In your position, I would mix like I was using freebase.
Sample the product often and keep good notes.

Cheers

I use nic salt in my diy. No special methods needed. Mix and vape per usual.

I steep my nic salts, but I kind of thought that it was the flavors and their combinations that require the steeping time. Not the nic. I mean, otherwise there wouldn't be shake and vape flavors versus flavors that need steeping.

I DIY for the most part with nic salts but now both and have not noticed any significant change in steeping needed (obviously, dependent on the FLAVORING) not the nic.

Salts make no difference either way in regards to steeping time.
