Hopefully my last and final questions.

1.) How submerged should the bottles be, half, 3/4s, etc?

2.) Someone already told me that leaving the ultrasonic lid off is ok, but what about the caps on the plastic/glass juice bottles?

I always fill so the water goes to the level of the juice in my 70ml bottles and I always leave the caps on the bottles.

Awesome, thanks bobalex. I was starting to reread the thread so that saved a lot of time, haha.

When i was reading sounds like there is a max line in the ultrasonic machines, so then from what your saying we can fill them to anywhere we want, just not over the max line.

Sounds good, fingers crossed mine gets here for the weekend. Waiting on making any more mixes till its here, then it's a no holds bar mixing and guce'ing weekend :)

There is.

... so then from what your saying we can fill them to anywhere we want, just not over the max line.

And not below the "min" line.

And within hours you will be amazed.

Yep, can't wait. I keep sitting and staring at the picture of the ultrasonic cleaner on amazon. Also have some other hangsen tobacco flavors and can't wait to try them all. Gonna drop the percent down to since I can speed steep now and see if the lower percentage works for me.

There is.

Thought of another question I don't think I have seen in the threads.

I have the steeping time and suggestions for tobaccos and fruits, and was given info on ultrasonic steep time compared to tradition let it sit time.

But, is there a difference for ultrasonic steep times if I am doing 5ml, 15m, 30ml or 60ml batches for steep times?

Ok so I'm messing around with this Sonic Breathe Ultrasonic Personal Humidifier, Small Appliances | Walmart Canada Online Shopping. Here is my school of thought, I can fit 1 15ml and 1 30ml in it. It's not very big, but, it has an adjustable power dial, the box says with a bottle screwed onto it is good for 12 hrs. It has a built in fan. I have had juice in it for about 4 hrs now, water gets nice and warm but nothing you can't put your finger in. I am just trying to finish one of my tanks and I will try some buttery creamy vanilla and see how it tastes. I will keep everyone informed, WTH it was a$25 experiment.

Awesome,I should buy an ultrasonic cleaner then

Click around and you'll find one with a 30 minute timer. Or ... you could spend $2 less and get one with an 8 minute timer like I did. Trust me ... keep looking. You'll be glad you did.

I use massager for steeping. It's the AC type to use on body. Fairly large but smaller will work too as long as it can vibrate the juice violently enough. First I warm up the bottle in hot water, than I hold or strap the bottle to it and let it run for 3 minutes till the juice turns milky color. That's the tinny bubbles working it's magic. Than I air it out and do it again. Usually I can vape right after the juice clears up but leaving to steep further always helps more off course. It's a very fast way to steep when in need.

What flavors are you massaging?
