I mix all my TJ concentrates at 20%, and apart from the Red Astaire which I steep for a week, I put mine away for at least 2 weeks, and more if possible. I made up 180ml of Mint the Toff last night, and will let it steep for at least a fortnight before splitting it into smaller bottles - it's in a 250ml bottle at the moment!!
I'm intending to make up 180ml of Tangerine Dream tonight or tomorrow, and will also leave this to infuse for a fortnight (save a little bit to drip tonight just to check!).

Have upped the JTR to 20% and going to let it steep a bit. Mixed Red Astaire at 15% and vaped it 2 days later. Does steeping make a huge difference with RA? Mixed a small tester also of bubble gun at 15% but I think that also might need upping to 20%. Not tried minty the toff yet but it's on my list. A few people have compared it to Murray Mints. Is it far off?
Cheers

As far as the Tangerine Dream is concerned, I don't know as I only mixed it for the first time this morning, and will again leave for two weeks before I try it - the wait is tantalising but well worth it! |

Keep me updated on it then. I bought minty the toff 1 ml sample from smoker rainbow. No way that was just mixed. It must have been steeping for 2 weeks or more surely. Right it's been lying there for weeks I'm off to try it again lol

Its not as bad as I remember but I think my dripper is so tainted I can't really tell so I'll buy the concentrate and give it a proper go.

Is it far off? Cheers Don't think it does significantly, but I tend to give anything I mix time before I use it as the majority improve for my tastes - JTR being an exception, I think that's better left not too long as the Raspberry flavour goes a bit musty for me otherwise. Minty the Toff I like, one of the few minty flavours that I do enjoy. Although I prefer that after the mintiness has peaked off.  |
