Steeping ?

[danliddle]

What is the method with this do you just take the cap of the bottle of Liquid and the dripper and just put it in a dark cupboard for a week or what ? seen quite a few people talking about it and just curious how it works I no I seem to be asking quite a few questions lately just wanting to know about stuff as im getting use to Vaping 

Cheers

I just give the bottle a good vigorous shaking, remove the cap but leave the dripper in and then leave in the cupboard checking every few days with a couple of drops on a 306 dripper to see how the flavours are developing. 306 drippers can be checked here 306 Dripper

I dont take the lid off, just put them in a dark draw in a bag with the rec'd date on, fruits a week, baccy and custard flavours about 3 weeks

I leave the tops on too, safer with animals and children around

pop them in a cupboard and forget about them for a while

Lisa on for me, I might whip the lid of once a week and replace the air then cap back on if I remember, which is never
mix, lid on and store in a cool dark place for me.

5 or 6 rounds in the ultrasonic bath is enough for me, replacing the air in between. But then none of my juices require much steeping.

personally, i let them steep as aliscampbell said for a period of time depending on the e-liquid... fruits for 5-7 days, sweets for 2 weeks, custard ones for 3-4 weeks and smokey ones for 6-8 weeks time...

i remove their lid, placing a cotton mesh thing, to avoid having flies in there, and place them in a high place... every 8-10 hours i place the lid and gently swirling it/shaking it for 3-4 minutes in order to accelerate its homogenization...

from time to time i drip it to check out its progress, just like sydsut does...

Think everybody develops their own steeping technique depending on flavour of juice and manufacturer. Tobacco's for me from flavour art about 3-4 weeks. Anything with custard from chefs vapour, 4-6 weeks. Just vaped vanilla custard over the holidays that had been steeping for six months. Fruits, depends what they are but a few are good to go straight after mixing, as is Red Astaire and Afro Dizziac from T Juice. Once mixed, in the cupboard, shake once a week remove and replace lid and that's it.

I don't take the lid off either - just wait - till I think they might be ready

[chykensa]

I'm a lids-on chap (unlike Greg, who obviously has someone called Lisa to help him!) and use similar timings to those above. Red Astaire and anything fruity are almost ready to go immediately, whilst custards and complex dessert juices get left for at least a month.

[Greg]

I'll let anyone help me, I'm not fussy

[danliddle]

So basically shake the bottle take the cap of put it in a cupboard for a week or two and thats it or shake the bottle every few days then take the cap straight off then eleave again ?

Maybe a stupid question, but how do you go about steeping them in the Ultrasonic cleaner? Is it just the case of putting the bottle containing the e liquid  in the basket and filling the cleaner with a small amount of water?

I'm lazy....

I just mix them and put them away, leave them for a while (no set time), then get them out again and VAPE

I'm not into all this faffing around

That's the idea.

Another great idea given to me was to put the bottles in a bag and tape to the side of a washing machine for a few spin cycles.

Anything that agitates the juice accelerates the process.
