Well I got the steam juice in and I was pretty disappointed. There were three of the eight I ordered that I thought I might even remotely like. Thick vanilla custard, blonde ginger and ambrosia. But they were so harsh on the inhale that I could not even enjoy them. Ordered 3mg Max VG with extra flavor. I have no idea what made them so harsh but I could not vape it more than a few pulls. :( The others were not good at all IMO. Now these are fresh out of the mail box so maybe just maybe a little steep time will smooth them out a bit....IDK...

Crocky,...sounds like they used alcohol in their base for that juice..That will make a juice so harsh that you will think you stuffed a cigar into your atty and hit it..Try the evaporation method and give it a weeks steep after. {Caps off for 24hrs shaking vigorously every 4 to 6 hrs. Then let sit 5 to 7 days.}

I got a bunch of bottles of Nicoticket from the last sale and they were all made in Oct/Nov of last year. Is this normal?

What nic level? If 18mg/ml I think normal. I have ordered (18mg) since november, and ALL have the same date on them, but others getting lower nic have said different dates. One example is Wakonda, First I ordered in November was dated 10/28, just ordered with the BOGO code (240ml), ALL dated 10/28. Same on other 18mg that I have (and just ordered), ALL dated the same. Don't think they sell a lot of the higher nic. JMHO

But GOOD JUICE, also JMHO.

18 mg/ml Wakonda and H1N1 - The Virus. It should be well steeped, just hopefully not too much. I heard The Virus actually changes as it steeps. Hope I didn't miss too much.

From what I read a lot of the steep happens after it gets more air, so vape it and enjoy the changes along the way. :)

Thanks, Burnie for answering this question! I directed rocketman29 to the Nicoticket forum, and he posted there, but so far no one has answered! I wasn't sure and only wanted to post accurate info.
Hope it's ok with mods here that I linked him over there to NT - sorry if not! I'm gonna cut down my linking, but it's hard to go cold turkey!! :laugh:

The question was about NT, so linking to where an answer might be, is not wrong, so I don't see a problem. But I follow this thread and just gave my input from experience. I'll look in the NT forum and reply if needed, But you did nothing wrong directing them there. IMHO

I've received several answers in other threads. Thanks everyone. Just waiting on my two new tanks (GS Air Ms) and two new mods Mods (iStick 30Ws) to enjoy my 2 new juices Wakonda and H1N1 - The Virus.

I will be at 6 tanks and 6 mods then. That should be enough...right? :facepalm:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Sure :lol: :lol: :lol:

For Today :lol: :lol: :lol:

That's what I carry for a backup. :lol: :lol: :lol:







Just Kidding :), that is a good supply, backups of your backups. IMHO can't have too many. :D


Just watch out for the shinnyitus, will really hurt your bank account. :(

That'll get you started, Rocketman!!
I got my GSAirMs in yesterday and they are great. Larger juice capacity, same coils as the original airs, and Virus and Wakonda are great in them!!

To review, they're selling 6, 30ml bottles for $24.00 w/free shipping. It looks like there's no limit on substitutions so presumably one could pick whatever 6 flavors they fancy and still pay just $24.00. I ordered VP #2 w/two substitutions:
• Banana Split
• Snickers
• Kaptin Crunch
• Apple Jax
• Graham Cracker (instead of PB)
• Storm (Tigers Milk) (instead of Butterscotch)

When received on 3-28, the juice was thin. VERY thin. I specified 30/70 PG/VG so even if they used flavoring w/a lot of water or alcohol it's still too thin. I strongly suspect the juice ratio is "upside down". So I emailed them. Twice actually, 4-7 and 4-11. I'm still waiting on a reply.

The good news is, even as green as it is the juice (most of it anyway) is actually pretty darned good! Two aren't as good as the rest- Kaptin Crunch and Apple Jax- but w/more steeping they might come in. My surprise favorite is Banana Split. I am reordering it once I get to the bottom of the PG/VG ratio 'problem'.

Bottom line for me is, there are some very good flavors here. Finding the gems in the relatively large selection of flavors might not be so easy but at least the low cost helps.

Honestly I could have maybe enjoyed the flavors if they were not so harsh. Not sure what that is about. Going to send Steven an email and ask

I got my Steam Juice today. I got 30/70 pg/vg 3mg, and they're not harsh at all. Jerry Juice needs a bit of a steep I think, but other than that they're good. I'm sure you just got a weird batch.

It gets better with time , wasn't impressed at first .

I'm hoping so. I was really looking forward to Jerry Juice, but it's just kind of bleh at the moment. I mostly just taste coconut and something nutty. There's also a weird taste that I can't quite place. I'm hoping that it will get better with a steep as the juice is almost completely clear. That's what I hate about made to order liquids. They almost always require a good steep before they're vapeable.

Good thing I have 120ml of Nicoticket PBC to keep me occupied while my Steam Juice steeps.
