Hi, I am new and glad to be part of this great forum, I have a couple of questions:-
when I have mixed my juice & nicotine [Strawbery custard] in a 100 ml bottle [or if good taste 500ml bottle] how do you steep? do I leave the screw cap on or off?, is steeping allowing air into the bottle or not?
if I store a mixture long term [say six months] is it best to keep screw cap on and keep air out? or occasionaly open cap to let air in?
thank you very much for any help
Never take the cap off, shake and let sit in a cool cupboard. If it seems harsh, it’ll smooth out with a steep. You’re just letting flavour evaporate with the cap off.
As for storage, I think the air left in the container will do nothing, but the hardcore DIY nerds have used a gas called Argon I believe it was called, but that’s just nerdy posturing imho.
No need to breathe the juice, just throw it in a dark space and forget about it.
Welcome to ELR @IA1. As others have stated, the length of the steep depends on the recipe. Fruits a week or so, bakeries, and some custards 2-4 weeks, heavy custards 4 weeks, tobaccos/NET’s even longer.
Never uncap, as if you can smell the flavors, while uncapped, you are LOOSING flavor molecules/compounds = less flavor.
Cap’m, steep’m, and enjoy.
Very good advice from everyone, very much appreciated, very nice to be on this forum and thanks again
You’re welcome @IA1, and please remember, all of this is our ADVICE, so you could always TRY a few (small) samples, in 10ml bottles. Leave one capped for a month or two, the other uncapped, and see what YOU think at the end.
About the only time I can remember “venting” juices, were when I had HIGH levels of flavors that were alcohol based, but even then, not sure what I vented more, flavor molecules OR the alcohol LOL.
Hi mate, yes I will do a small sample first and make notes, thanks again 
Welcome @IA1. Don’t hesitate to ask any question bro. We’ve all been new once- and remember how it was.
