Question, do you ever get dud cartomisers? I've just filled one up with Citrus Spring (same way as i did previously) and it doesnt seem to be vaping ??? When i press the button on the Riva nothing is happening........ swapped to the other cartomiser i filled previously and its working fine

Yes, you can very occasionally get a completely dud cartomiser, but it's pretty rare. Any chance you may have screwed it onto your battery too tightly? If so you could try raising the centre pin in a similar way to how the video on this thread shows you how to raise the centre pin on a battery -

Can anyone explain to me what "steeping" is? I see it mentioned on the board quite a lot but cant seem to find much info on how it should be done. Thanks, Goof.

Put simply it's leaving your juice in a cool dark place with the lid off until it matures.

I've tried it in the past with children but it didn't work so well...

Hahahahaha

So, is it recommended for all juices? For example, i just got 3 bottles of pixie juice, should they be steeped for a few days first before vaping? Do i take the caps off the bottles?

Thanks, Goof.

Lol Pinky.

It depends very much upon the juice tbh Goofy, there's no hard and fast rule . . . it does depend upon how freshly mixed your juice is and the flavour.

Some flavours are good to vape from the off, but my personal experience is that most that I use, benefit from a weeks steeping depending upon how freshly made they are. And, I always leave home brews for at least a week before testing them.

a definite yes to steeping....for instance, i found the grizwalds whisky cream pants at first....didn't start tasting lush to me until 2/3 weeks later. with pixie juice it's written on the bottle how long you should steep for.

Maybe we should go one step further though & just recommend the Provari plus a Penelope to every new member? After all, a good big battery mod & a rebuildable, will save them even more money long term

Contemplating a Penny tbh.......... if that goldengreek place ever get more of them in

[Perpetua]

I'd keep an eye open for the Ithaka, if you want to go down the GG rebuildable route Goofy . . . .
