I haven't been on for ages been so busy with work, but have been busy vaping through my stash of liquids and decided actually there really wasn't much that floated my boat. So then thought i know i'll have a go at mixing my own so have read through some threads on here any by god its a bit technical for my brain to take in So decided on the easy/cheats route so have bought some 50/50 12 mg strength pre mixed base. Now i know that by adding flavours to this it will eventually dilute my overall nic strength, but i think i can live with that. So my concentrate purchases so far are t Juice as you guys all seem to love them and have to say the RA is lovely it has been my all day vape for the last week and love the fact that it doesnt really need any steeping time. Now i think i'm addicted to the t juice website and have been back for more concentrates so can someone give me some ideas on steeping time for the following please. All mixed at 20% Minty the Toff Strawberri Colonel Custard Green Steam Jack The Ripple

Hi badbirdMTT, Strawberri, GS & JTR will need little steeping, anything from a day to a week... CC will be need longer, most custards benefit from 3 or 4 weeks steeping

Personally I think all tjuice flavours benefit from at least a week steeping. But I rarely have the self control to stick to that as they are all so nice.

I've only used t-juice's Jack the Ripple, and it does only need a couple of days steeping. I tend to add a little bit of pre-mixed cream to mine when I fill my tank, just a small amount as I personally think it gives it just that bit extra creaminess to it I've recently mixed up some double cream from Lt-ecigs, a few days ago, and tried it on my little dripper, and wow I was in heaven. I know I love my cream but this one is just divine, only mixed at 10% as a starter too and without any nic just to test the flavour itself out. I think I'll be getting bucket loads of double cream in

If in doubt, give it a week to start with . . . if it still tastes rank, then give it longer. On the whole Custard/Chocolate flavours take the longest to develop, 3-4 weeks for them to be at their best. But if they taste good to you after half that time, then that's all that matters really.

CC does indeed benefit from a few weeks of steeping - I have some that is about a month old, and it's really much tastier than it was when freshly made. Not sure how much longer it will last, TBH!!
