As far as vaping goes this is one of my biggest gripes, why do vendors insist on making juice fresh?
What are the benefits? I really don't see any myself. As long as the vendor is realistic and does not make more than they can sell in a month then they will always be ahead of themselves, or even easier if you sell some juice make the same amount and put it at the back of your stock.
I would have spent a whole lot more money on juice if I knew it was good to go. But when I look for juice now all I think about is how long I will have to wait till its ready.

I wish lol, I have dabbled my hand with mixed results. I have produced one 30ml bottle of juice that I like out of around 200ml. That is not very economical I am thinking about steeping my own tobacco leaves as I know I will be able to vape that whatever the taste turns out like

The only trouble with that is it's such a faff, you steep, then filter, then steep, then filter, then after further steeping unless your very lucky you wind up with concoction that looks murky and can be very muddy on the tongue. I know I've been there.

I am thinking about steeping my own tobacco leaves as I know I will be able to vape that whatever the taste turns out like @darch has excellent results with home steeping tobacco leaves, but he does really filter the liquid well as it can be a real coil clogger otherwise Ginge. I gave that up as a bad job as I don't have the patience and don't like the taste of tobacco especially either.

I guess the benefit to the vendor in supplying fresh is a massive reduction in stock on the shelf, plus they can offer various pg/vg ratios and nick strength and even an extra shot of flavour. If you think about it three pg/vg ratios and five nic strengths would mean fifteen mixes for each flavour on the shelf, stock fifty flavours and you need 1500 bottles to cover all the possibilities and that's with one of each, if you wanted a stock of say five of each, well 7500 bottles would just be ridiculous! Lol Plus if you market it right you make a big thing of 'mixed fresh' and 'made exclusively for you' while your actually making it on the living room coffee table watching daytime tv in your undercrackers, with very little overhead to boot, ding dong!

poochops I appreciate what your saying and if I wanted a custom mix I would expect it to be fresh. But surely having bottles good to go is only a good thing? No one likes buying a pre registered car and waiting to drive it, they want it now imo and I personally feel the same about juice. But it means more dough in my pocket and less in the vendors

www.wholeleaftobaccoonly.com/default.htmlginge7289, I follow the original thread on tobacco steeping but leave the sludge in a sealed jam jar for about 2 weeks before the second mixing and filtering, I tend to filter about 4 times through a cotton wool bud in a 60ml syringe, for tobacco I use the link above they do an e-liquid pack, 5x20g of your choice.
