Steeping Question

[Kyle_1995]

Hi everyone,

I just started mixing my own juices and I have a question about steeping.

I currently have my juices steeping in my garage (shoebox), however it isn't room temperature, ~10-15 celsius.

Should I leave them there or bring them inside?

bring them inside...

and its actually called aging... unless you are soaking tobacco in the fluid

for example, wine is aged, tea is steeped

Thanks, after some simple thinking, probably better to keep them inside.

The colder it is out there the slower the process is. You don't want to store your liquids long term at high temps, but if you want to move that aging process along you need to warm things up - short term.

Easy, ty, just brought them inside at room temp.

No idea where you live, but the idea of 10-15 C sounds really comfortable compared to summer temps around me. I like wearing a sweater.

Mild winters. Sounds perfect

And congrats on starting to DIY your own juice. You can tailor precisely to your preferences, and save quite a bit of money along the way.

Its more like mixing , as in Aus its illegal to sell nicotine. So every juice here is 0mg.

Depends on the state you live in. Some states prohibit it, some don't.

The law has a weird loophole where you can import up to 3 months supply of nicotine. In my state anyway.
