How do you know if your e-juice has gone bad?

[Raven_Blackblade]

Just a question. Perhaps something that is not only useful to myself but others as well.

Like me :o) I was wondering the same. Does the taste change.

Is it that puppy breath some people talk about with some juices / flavors or is that just certain flavors / Juice? I have noticed it with SE (I know) tabacco juice that I got screwed into buying when I started all this. Recently I noticed it with Hilton from RD.

Now that I think about it maybe that is just the tabacco flavors that get that taste...

When it doesn't taste good anymore? That's what I would go by. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you have to worry about something spoiling and becoming toxic.

I am concerned because I have a bit of a juice collection and I am worried that it might go bad. That is all.

Everything I've heard points to a shelf life of around 1.5-2 years for nic juice.

Physical characteristics? I doubt anyone knows.

I had a bottle of 36mg strawberry turn green on me once.. I was told it probably wouldn't hurt me to smoke it.. and when I tried it, it really didn't taste any different (I threw it out any way for the sake of paranoia)

Still haven't figured out why it turned green though... had it in a glass bottle wrapped in a cloth to keep it from breaking and thrown in my purse. I left it in there for like a week without using it and the next time I pulled it out, it was green. ... not green ish.. straight green.. like green food coloring!

I wonder if anyone else has had this happen?

But my personal opinion is that if something starts changing colors when it shouldn't.. I'm not eating or smoking it :P

Let me guess, Ryle - Johnson Creek?

They've had this trouble before.....don't know why, and they haven't been able to duplicate the results in a lab to figure out why, either.

Just how close to two years does it last, I wonder. I guess it's how you keep the liquid. How cool. I keep mine in the basement, out of the sun and heat.I imagine if the cover is tight, it would last every bit of that.I hope so anyway,as I have quite the collection. All bought back during the scare. I bought juice in 36mg and some 24mg. I don't think I'll buy more for a while, unless I want to try more flavors. Wife won't let me.

JC don't make 36mg - Did they at some point?

[e-pipeman]

Best thing is to keep it in a cupboard and NOT in clear bottles - you don't want sunlight mucking about with it. Oh yes - and that cupboard should be in a cool place (no, not Salford - cool in temperature!). Well, ok - it can be a bit chilly in Salford...
