steeping with 72mg nic

@dahut the only other way you can do it is to put the bottles in a darkened room in front of a large plasma telly with this running on it.

Light spectrum steeping it's a thing [emoji23]

Well there’s the barrel method as well if you’re brave enough togo down that road...

What about UV lights like they're now using to cure the ladies painted nails?

It needs to be hypnotic.

Yep, concentrates and nic and let it steep. But you could do it in a 10ml bottle or a 100ml bottle. What makes the difference is the nic strength, not air. Same principle as how 24mg steeps faster than 12mg, if you mix it all at once.

Interesting, I might try it.

So there has been some discussion about steeping concentrates with 72mg nic to speed up the process @mattyk2010 mentioned that he’s been doing it, and it works. @Ment posted something that suggested it too when he found his liquid steeped faster when he didn’t add the pg straight away.

Last night I mixed 2.5ml of atmos labs mastic concentrate with 10ml of 72mg vg nic. This concentrate is almost clear and a bit cloudy, and when I used to mix 7mg bottles of liquid, would take weeks and weeks to have get a slight colour change.

Between last night and this morning this mix has gone from being very slightly cloudy and just about clear to being bright orange, just overnight.

Interesting, as I’ve bought this premixed from atmos labs, and it was really dark, almost black, and very pungent. My own mixes would never age like this, and I noticed a difference in flavour. I emailed them about it a couple of years ago and Panos replied explaining that the stronger the liquid, the darker it goes.

I would suggest all you mixers try this method of increasing steep activity, it definitely works.

I’m also interested to know if vg or pg speed up or slow down the process. I think @Ment was suggesting this might be the case.

Im trhing this and I shall report my personal findings.

How long do you suggest to steep with flavour and nic only?

I have made my own smores flavour. I've made a shake n vape and I've made some that has, at this point, been steeping with only flavour and 72mg nic for 24 hours.

Leave it 7 to 10 days [emoji6]

It's shorter than 4-6 weeks [emoji6]

My bottle of mastic was ready in a couple of days, used to take a couple of weeks mixing it all at once at 7mg.
