    Default How long does juice last?

    OK, so if FDA or some other lame branch of the govt outlaws juice or juice through the mail or whatever... How long can I expect my storage of juice to last before it goes bad? a year?

    18 months to two years. And were not sure if it 'goes bad'. PG and VG are humectants in 'normal use' and it may just lose that characteristic. Store in a dark, cool, and dry place.

    18-24 mos in fridge and no light. Someone will figure a way to make it no matter what the gov says.

    I have done much reading and nobody has addressed whether that time can be extended by freezing it or would that not help or even hurt it in any way?

    I dont think Id try and freeze it though. Might try a very small amount as test, but Ive never heard of anyone trying it. Would be interesting to know though.

    Freezing would probably cause it to lose some of it's characteristics flavorwise. Unflavored base to be used with flavors may be doable though... My basis on this theory is like a soda... if you put it in the freezer for too long and it actually freezes ever notice that... funky flavor it gets?

    Oh, it's been addressed, just no proof or even consensus on it:

    e-cigarette-forum.com • The place for electronic cigarette reviews, news and chat - Search Results

    That's a search for 'freezing juice' - pick the appropriate threads....

    Some say not to even put in the fridge What is the consenus on that, should keep it in the fridge or just put in a dark, cool and dry place. Which will last longer.

    PG, at least the fog machine grade stuff, keeps for a long time. I have some 5 years old that is in my workshop going from 90 degrees to freezing and it still works. I think the flavoring and the nic are the factors in shelf life. Not sure what that is, I estimate that I have 10 months worth based on the 30ml per month rule and I will start to cut with VG to extend that.
