I frequently read the suggestion that you ought to take the cap and dropper off new e-juice for 24 hours. I guess this lets undesirable stuff evaporate. The problem for me is I lack a safe haven for these accidents waiting to happen. No matter where I consider placing them, I can imagine a scenario where someone knocks them over. I finally came up with a idea that allows me to let my juice breath while being secured. I used a little box that came from madvapes and wedged in some newspaper. It may not be pretty, but it worked great.

Sometimes Simple ideas do not come to us, Another thing you could do would be to just cut round holes in the top of that box and stick them in the holes. My wife did something like that for her Batt and Clearomizers.
I haven't thought about it, but when steeping I was thinking just removing the cap, not the part that pulls out, I am new to this and not sure how to do it the right way

I live next to a cemetery so I crack open an old mausoleum that over a 150 years old. I've cleaned the place out pretty good and set up sections, fruits on one casket, drinks on another and candies on a third. Its really cool down there, about 56 degrees and the stuff just steeps great down there. I keep a glow in the dark full head skull mask down there in case its after hours. It's pretty funny when you fire up a sub ohm dripper and blow volcanoes of smoke out of the skull to see the migrant Hispanic workers screaming and running around like the three stooges trying to escape El Diablo.

Here is my setup that vapeman was talking about!!:D

those are great ideas.. I'm going to order me a Deluxe vaping holding box!

Hello, Pizza hut? yeah... I need a large meat lovers... (that out to help get that Bacon e-juice off to a good start!)

Actually, all kidding aside, that's a great simple idea that is inexpensive!
 
I keep my steeping juices in a cupboard in the bathroom in my current apartment. It's dark, cool and its a spot totally dedicated to my vaping supplies. I wanted to use the shelves in the living room closet but they slant a bit and I didn't want anything falling off especially open juice bottles.

Work has me on the move every 3 months so at each new apartment I have to figure out a new spot that my cats won't get into. At the last place it was a high shelf in a hallway closet. The apartment before that was an unused spot in a kitchen cabinet. And that's just 3 of the 4 places I've lived in this year.
 
I know what you're saying about steeping in the bathroom but my current apartment has a large bathroom and I don't worry about closing the door as I live alone. And since its corporate housing the thermostat is always set at 68-70 degrees (free utilities). So the typical heat and humidity concerns aren't really an issue.
