How do I let my e-juice breathe?

In the vaping world, there is a part of steeping called breathing. This is when you let oxygen get into your e-juice. It is recommended that this isn't done for more than 12 hours and make sure you cap it and shake it at least 3-4 times a day. Keep in mind, some juices change color.

Even though it's a pretty simple process, it still needs to be done correctly. Not doing it correctly can destroy your e-liquid completely and you don't want that. The steps for the process are listed below.

• Take off the cap and nipple.
• Let it sit in a cool and dark place for no more than 12 hours.
• Throughout the process, put the cap and tip back on and shake it 3-4 times.
• If you let it breathe by putting it in a warm area, then you should steep it for an additional 2 to 3 days.

There are a few reasons why a vaper would let their e-liquid breathe. Not everyone chooses to do it but the ones that do usually do it for one of these reasons. They are listed below.

• To get more intense flavor
• To take away some of the harshness
• To let any alcohol evaporate
• To really let all the flavors and ingredients blend completely

If any of these things are happening with your e-juice, then you should give breathing a try. Just be careful because it's very easy to accidentally mess up your juice. If you are nervous, you can put about half the bottle in a different container and leave the cap off while leaving the cap on the original bottle. Then you can try both and see if breathing really does make a difference.
