How many time do I need to steep a natural liquid with nicotine?
submitted about 7 years ago by SynerONE

I just made. a liquid without flavors, just 100% vg @ 3mg nic salts. How many time do I need to steep it? I just moved and I lost the box with flavors so I need to improvise while I get my new order. Can you help me?

steeping is done because certain flavors need to steep, a flavorless juice doesn't need to steep at all

Nicotine isn't effected by a steep. It's Nicotine.

Doesn’t matter, once you’ve shaken it up it will be good to go

No steep necessary. Just make sure you shake it a lot. 100% VG is very thick.

As above, common misconception that nic needs steeping, where infact it's the concentrates steeping and melding with one another. Ditto for darker juices after steeping with NIC when it's actually oxidising (reacting with air).

Many is used for more than one thing. Because you’re only asking about time, you ask HOW MUCH TIME not HOW MANY TIME.

Or the next time you think. ‘Should I ask how much or how many’ put an S on the end. So if you ask HOW MANY TIMES should I steep this you know its wrong so should be HOW MUCH TIME, hope this makes sense.

Eliquid is steeped so that flavour develops by breaking down in the eliquid, mixing in a bit more.

Unflavoured doesnt need any flavour to steep...
