Custom mixed juices from B&M and steeping.

[Del Vecchio]

I'm still new and trying to learn things but I've bought a couple juices from a local B&M down in Austin (not giving their name yet). It's more of a general question about shops that mix their own juices. Do all of them have to be steeped? The ones that I bought down here all taste more or less like popcorn butter to me. They are from different ends of the flavor spectrum so I figured they would all have a different taste.

Any thought?

Most vendors, B&M specially don't like to stock a lot of ejuice, so chances are whatever you buy from them was recently made.
As a rule of thumb If I don't like the ejuice right away probably never will, steeping "enhance" the juice flavor but don't alter the taste dramatically, in most cases it does reduce that chemical taste many juices have.
So I 'd say since you already have those juices, experiment with them, let them steep for a while and see how it works for you. Finding the perfect juice is a never ending quest, keep trying, eventually you'll find a couple you can really vape all day

I got 4 different flavors , none of them tasted like any thing I have ever tasted. Not even close to what the label said.

One of the flavors is starting to come around. I wonder if I had a little vapors tongue or was expecting it to taste different.

You could hurry up the flavor marrying process by heating the bottles in some fairly warm (hot but not scalding) water and then shaking the crap out of them until your arms can't take it any more <LOL>

...repeat several times and you will be about as well blended as they are going to get.

There's an extensive thread here somewhere about heat steeping and it's effects on flavors and nic strength. Bottom line is heat=good for flavor melding, no negative effect on Nic level.
