    Question Anything wrong with re-using old juice bottles?

    just wondering, I have a few juice bottles that have fairly old juice in them and was thinking empty bottles wouldnt be bad to keep on hand in case I want to try and mix something.

    Is this okay? Should I take of the dripper tops and boil them or anything or is it better to just toss them?

    No problems from this corner, either. I just wash them in hot dish-soapy water, then rinse-rinse-rinse-rinse.

    Eventually they'll get ancient and crack, but that event is years away.

    I just run mine under hot water and flush a few times and let them air dry, then your good to go. On a few occasions I was glad to have some back ups around as they came in very handy.

    I reuse every bottle I get, every once in a while I do my "vape dishes" as my wife calls it, just clean then with hot water, don't wanna use soap, and I would hate to waste PGA on them. If there is a overwhelming odor in them them by all means use PGA!

    Be careful boiling. I had one bottle that I put in hot water from the tap and it melted the bottle (admittedly, I do like hot water and keep the water heater turned higher than most). I can only imagine what boiling water would have done to it.

    I keep all of my 6ml sample bottles that I got. They are great to fill up with whatever liquid you want and take with you without having to lug around a 30ml bottle of juice. I keep one or two flavors on hand at almost all times with some extra cartos as a backup.

    I just rinse with hot water and air dry.

    I tried the PGA and it didn't get rid of the previous flavor for me so I went to putting them in the freezer, that's right, the freezer. After I get any residue out of the bottles, caps and droppers I let them air dry and then through them into an uncovered plastic container and just keep them in there. Try it, I thought it was crazy when I first heard of it but it does work. Takes a couple of weeks though. I reuse mainly 6ml bottles so it doesn't take up much freezer space. 15 & 30ml bottles I try to keep with the same main flavors when I reuse them...mint to mint strawberry to strawberry, etc.
