Tips & Guides

Can we speed up the steepening process?

While it is technically possible to reduce the waiting time, nothing fully replaces patience for optimal maturation. Methods such as a lukewarm water bath or using magnetic stirrers can help thin the base and speed up the molecular bonding between the aromas and the PG/VG carrier.

However, be careful not to play sorcerer's apprentice with excessive heat, which could degrade the nicotine or destroy the most fragile aromatic notes. Forced acceleration can help those in a rush, but natural resting away from light remains the gold standard for achieving the complexity and smoothness of an exceptional liquid. In short, you can cheat a little, but time remains the best chef for your DIY.
