Done 2 liquids today: 100% VG diluted with 10% distilled water and 10% flavor both done at 121 degrees at 4 hours stirring (1250rpm). Perfect!!!
Can you point me to the threads about this method please? Just wondering why others are saying it doesn't work too well with VG...
just search steeping. Can't give you specifc threads off the top of my head. I've only ran across them from time to time while researching other things. I think even this tread has discuss them within the last 10 pages.
thanks for the replies. what would be the optimal temp setting on my UC? if it has one... havent made it home from work to open my present yet
I've always heard 125F...
However, my tank is awful for this reason. I can't keep it below 125 even with the heat off... I have to fight to keep it below 50C.
I've been doing on the fly water swaps but I'm starting to piece together a pump/radiator system to cool the water because it's just too much work trying to keep it cooled down.
This may sound a bit obvious but you don't keep the cover on when you steep do you? I'm not up on celcus so not sure how hot 50c is but if you can stick your finger in the water and keep it there without scolding yourself you should be OK.
i did a mixing session last night... this time i filled it with cold water.. it took much longer to get to a good temp.. it did finally warm up after about an hour... temps really never made it over 120F... ill fill the UC with warm water next time so it doesnt take so long... oh and if you wear glasses, put them in for a few minutes, its like having a brand new pair!
I've done that with my glasses and it works great. To bad it doesn't do anything about scratches.
I paid extra for my Lenses because of the scratches (can't remember the name). So far I'm really glad I did no scratches with a lifetime guarantee against them.
I've always liked Grand Ultrasonic Cleaner Experiment or GUCE for short. Probably because I made it up.
Got a ?
My first guce
1 flavor I did was 80pg/20pg/20nic 5ml + 10% (0.5 TY4 TYPE TFA) + 10% (0.5 double choc(dark) tfa ) on 8/14 + 3 Drops dou choc
Guce for 3 hours glass bot , result very light choc flavor
So ? is how do I get more flavor? have I over added? should I add more choc and re Guce for 3 hours ?
Thanks

Some fantastic thoughts. I tried to read everything but I'm still confused so your help would be great.
- So...about one hour in the Ultrasonic Cleaner is the general thought? I understand that some juices require more or less but just trying to understand the issue and get a ballpark number?
- Assuming I have both oars in the water, please provide direct links and name/model numbers and thoughts on specific Ultrasonic Cleaners which permit me to dial in one hour and forget it please? I understand these costs more and their are ways to save tons of money BUT I have three vapers and lots of juice and don't have the inclination to constantly fiddle with 3 minute max time Ultrasonic Cleaners.
Thanks in advance for your help.

mine has a 480 sec timer.. so 8 minutes... i've heard the harbor freight one has a 30 min timer...
i've found that the chocolate blends need less time... im not sure yet how much less, yet. the first coupe tries yielded a very thin liquid and the chocolate flavor was very light.

This has a 59 minute timer
