Much like your tanks, MODs, and other vaping accessories, there are plenty of "Do's and Don'ts" when maintaining your e-juice. You see, they’re not all equal, as they come in all flavors, sizes, and nicotine strengths. With that said, here are some e-liquid maintenance tips you can use:

Tip #1: Steeping: Like fine wine, scotch, and cigars, your e-liquid gets better with time. In regards to e-juice, this process is called steeping. Steeping your liquid is a quintessential process because fresh e-juice is nothing like its steeped counterpart. In order to steep, you must put your bottle in a cool dark area. After a solid steep of 2-4 weeks, your e-liquid has reached its peak performance.

Tip #2: Storage: For short-term storage, place glass bottle of e-juice in a refrigerator, doing so will preserve your juice. Avoid exposing your juice to heat and sunlight because this will alter the flavors, and potentially thin out the e-liquid.

Tip #3: Avoid Cheap Plastic Bottles If Possible: Another key component is to try to avoid cheap plastic bottles. The reason behind this is the e-juice could absorb the chemicals from the plastic, especially in warm environments. The best counter to this is to find glass bottles to store the e-liquids in.

Tip #4: The Nicotine in The E-Liquid: Nicotine is another aspect of e-juice; you can get different amounts of nicotine levels, and they will naturally break down and oxidize over time causing a darkening of the liquid’s color. No need to stress over this because it’s completely normal.

Other Various Tips: A side note that should be mentioned is to make sure the liquid is kept away from pets and children. E-juice shopping is not a walk in the park either. You must make sure you buy from reputable sources because low quality will taste poorly and have noticeable inconsistencies. Never use liquid from a cloudy bottle with no label or branding.

After learning these expert-level e-liquid maintenance tips, you’ll gain some flawless vaping experience. Shake up your e-juice to even out the contents, load up, and you’re ready to go.
