I just started making my own juice. I bought some 80/20 vg/pg base and strawberry concentrate. It is sitting in warm water right now steeping again. I steeped in warm water on first day 2 times..took off the cap and let it breathe for 24 hrs..though I doubled the actual recommended concentrate amounts after 2 weeks it still has a chemical smell and taste which is unvapable..I guess my question is "should I let the concentrate bottle breathe for a while to get rid of the chemical taste and smell before mixing my juice from the start..will this even help? I got my supplies from liquidbarn.com
