Does this mean its a waste to mix in bulk?
And if so how can venders put at least a six month sell by date on their juices

Interesting experiment. I suppose much is down to subjective evaluation, so it becomes a personal thing. I usually make batches of 100ml of my lime, which I generally make about every two weeks or so. Steeping can vary from one to three weeks depending when I can be bothered to make my juice. I find at least a week is needed. I usually give my mix a really good stir to thoroughly mix before I put into 10ml bottles, screw on the lid and pop in a cupboard.

Do what suits you are my thoughts . . . . time and patience have always been my preferred methods of steeping.  Some of my dessert/custard home brews are easily 6-8months old, all taste fine - though I don't leave fruits or mints for that long as the flavours tend to peak off if left too long. |

Sure I watch a video here the other day and heating in an ultra sonice cleaner won from his tastes, and that's it, it's that's persons taste. If this guy likes more strawberry over cream etc then that method X is best for him ....the only given rule seems to be cool dark place and time.... I just give it a Good shake, leave top of for few hours to let it breath then cool dark cupboard until I get round to and trying it.
If it's nice I vape it if not I don't, not that complicated.....

It looks like the best way to start mix according to weight is first flavours, then pg then vg and then nic.
I always start with the nic to get the bottle out of the way, and also i mix in order it shows on the ejuice calculator , which just happens to start with the nic. what about you guys?

I mix it, any order, shake it, leave it 24-48 hours cap off, leave it in a a cool (  ) dark place to steep Anything from one week to 3 months, depending on the complexity of the mix, and whether it's a fruit or dessert. Custards take the longest. One shots get a full hour to steep! |
