Backwoods Brew usually has to sit for a week or so for it to reach it's full potential. Various flavors need to sit or "steep" while most do not. If the flavor is made fresh, it's good to let it sit

You can try it right off the bat and if you like it, great. If not, let it sit for awhile. I tried my BWB RY4 after about four days and I thought it tasted like an old lady's perfume. I couldn't believe that this was the juice everybody was raving about. About two weeks later, it seems to be settling into a more palatable flavor. Everybody is different though, so there's no harm giving it a try whenever you want and then seeing if you need to let it steep.

When you say sit or steep, do you mean just not using it for a week or more? Or do you leave the lid off and let it sit?

Naw, I don't take the lid off. I've heard that some people do for a day or so, but I don't want to knock it over by mistake or for junk to get in there. I just put it in cool dark place and leave it alone. I have an old wooden box that I keep juices in for steeping.
