I don't know about that steeping thing. Everybody talks about it. My NLV juices are good to go out of the mail from what NLV and the thread for them says and I do find that to be true. I have read several places that Halo juices are supposed to be good out of the mail (presteeped) also, but now I am reading of people steeping them. The HDV stuff I bought did need to steep, most did not taste great on arrival, but the butterscotch mellowed after a month. A couple I just don't think anything is going to help them or I just do not like them. The DeejStuff needs to steep, even though on the bottle it says steep 5 days. It needs more than that I think, at least for me. A good portion of the juice I have was already at least a few weeks or over a month old when I got it so I have no idea what it tasted just made.

I can make an argument for steeping, to a point. Think about it. A good spagetti sauce or a stew always seems to taste better the second day. The flavors have had a chance to meld. Same thing with some soups or chili. I also think there is a lot of hype to keep us spending our money. Look at all the juice vendors. Many of them make a lot of the same basic flavors. A lot of them will come up with their own flavor combinations and name their concoction. But there are only a handful of the basic flavoring suppliers, from what I understand, and unless the juice maker is extracting their own flavors. So why would one blueberry, butterscotch or peach be very different from another? I don't get it. I know the peach from TPA may be a little different from the other flavoring companies, but what about the pg and vg. I read that there is a difference in the unflavored nic too.

I don't know. Some truth and some hype is what I tend to think. And I am probably wrong.

no i'm here. just was thinking what I really need to DIY . I read that it's good to have a ultrasonic jewelry cleaner, It steeps the juice

If you want to keep it simple, forget the cleaners. There's plenty of places that'll steep juice. If you want to get involved, get it. Steeping for any length of time is usually done with tobacco flavorings. I don't notice much diff with anythng else.

You too. That's what Lox says. Then I have more juice that I have to get rid of. I could swear my HDV butterscotch tastes better than it did a month ago. Maybe it is like real scotch and needed to be aged or maybe I just want it to taste better, so it does. What about taking the caps off to let the alcohol evaporate? Another myth?

I must be really, really fussy. A lot of us must be really, really fussy. It should not be so hard to find a juice we like.

If I want a Kitty, I can have a Kitty. My Kitty thinks she's a dog half the time anyways so she is almost there. Or she could be a distant relative to the lion. That might work. But she got all his courage.
