Steeping? Steeping????

WE DON'T NEED NO STINKING STEEPING...

Ok, a little overboard, but yea.... Cheesecake :rules:

Absolutely fantastic with every flavor.... Having trouble wrapping my head around the concept of it getting better.....

I seem to be running 50/50 on whether or not a juice needs to steep for me. Virus, Wakonda, and PBC have all been great for me FOOB, but CLS, GC, and CC all feel like they could benefit from steeping. Frenilla is a bit of a tossup for me; it's good, but I seem to like it better as an addon to other flavors than by itself. Haven't tried the strawberry yet so I have no opinion there.

The cherry most def needs a little steep.. The strawberry, well.... Lets just say that 10% recommended ratio goes out the window... It's sooooooooo good, I just squirt some in the tank with the CC, then give it a squirt a couple more times just for good measure....

    I don't like cheese danish actually but that is what it reminded me of...:blush:

    Lol I can't say I love eating cheese Danishes, but they're not bad for a pastry treat. Once upon a time though I found a delicious cheese danish eliquid, but after a few months it got all foul and lost it's flavor. I won't name the vendor, it's not NT, but they are a popular one. Been looking for a new one ever since!

    I will have to try that combo!! Thanks for the feedback. I was waiting on someone to try those together so I could ask [emoji4]

    Is this the review thread for Cheesecake? I don't see another.

    OK Fresh out of the mail I wasn't overly impressed but I have a history of that, for me the flavor of many NT juices seem to depend on the delivery system and I have to try them in several. Since I only have 2 Reos and they both have favorites in them I wanted to try this in a dripper. First with the Stingray and the Origen V2, well my build came out a bit higher than I planned at 1.4, I was trying for .8 and while it was pretty good I wasn't blown away by it. Can't taste any cherry flavor at all yet, still working on finding the right mix for me.

    This morning I decided to rebuild my Brass Monkey, I made slightly larger twisted 28g Kanthal coils that came in at .5. OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is amazing stuff.
    I'm tasting a little bit more cake than cheese at this point but this is fresh, still haven't found the right combo for the cherry but it's very very good. Tried a bit of strawberry and lift off!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!! It's every bit as good as Strawnilla, which I am hopelessly addicted to, if not better.

    Yep order #26249 was just placed for another 50 mil and I wish I could afford 500.

    This one is definitely a keeper.

    I believe they are going to be a very busy group.

    Order 25828

    would this be cheating? :D

    ORDER #25554

    A busy day in store for everyone at NT headquarters, I am sure! Imagine all the zotz they are going to steal today! LOL! :laugh:
    I've got my eye on you, Nick!!

    Order in #25826

    People, this cheesecake is GREAT. :ohmy: GET SOME!!

    25833 Couldn't resist a bottle of 18mg ...will dilute it with something :D ...plus more GC! :laugh:

    damn.....damn....damn.

    I have to walk away from the computer!

    Second order already 25840

    I somehow accidently dumped the bottom of my Razz Cup into my Cheesecake and of course didn't order any Rasberry only Cherry...so bummed! I definitely shouldn't be doing such important things before an appropriate nap has been taken. I meant to dump the bottom of the bottle into a newer bottle of Razz. Since it's new it's similar in color to Cheesecake and dummy me didn't look first!

    Order #25831

    I'm slow today....this stupid cold is lingering a tad so I opted to take a nap after I dropped the kids off for school.. #25901. Oh well, at least there was enough left for me!

    Thank you kindly for the orders folks!

    With regard to the PG/VG ratios - they should all be posted on the individual products. In the case of Cheesecake - 50/50. Raspberry/Strawberry are 65/35. Cherry is MAXVG (approx 20/80).

    As far as being "ready to vape" - we pre-steeped them all for a month...

    Being ready to vape is a highly subjective matter... Cheesecake was ready to vape for our entire testing team after a 1 month steep, but I feel like it has a long way to go.

    Raspberry and Strawberry are ready to vape.

    Cherry may require additional steep time because it's MAXVG - MAXVG really increases the steep time.


    With regard to the flavor load - any of the flavorings are suitable for vaping by themselves - they don't need to be mixed with another to vape (although many will prefer to do so, I suspect).

    I kind of want to mix the strawberry with CLS, a nice little berry custard :)

    I kinda want to mix strawberry with everything.... LOVING the strawberry... I have about 40ml, which in my head says STOP, don't order more, it will last a L-O-N-G time mixing it, but my tastebuds are saying "ORDER MORE".. lol

    If it was higher nic, I'd be sorely tempted to do just that!

    I have a question.... How will the "flavors" steep? Will they maintain and/or get better? Or will they tend to fade over time?
    Superman has said that the cherry is the only topping flav that will benfit from a steep as it is maxvg, the straw and rasp are good to go outa the box, iv found that the rasp does not loose impact with steeping, 3 plus weeks still tastes yummy. The toppings might vary slightly in flav as time goes on, but only in a positive way.[emoji41]
