Cloudy FlavourArt flavors

[GrannyM]

I just received some new flavors & was surprised that some of these were cloudy. Just wondering if this is normal? I can't ever remember having a cloudy flavor concentrate before. These are all FlavourArt

1. Anise (I did find 1 post that said this is a cloudy flavor, so I suppose this one is ok)
2. Lemon Sicily
3. Lime Cold Pressed
4. Mandarin
5. Peppermint

Normal! I'm so low on peppermint that I can't confirm that 100%, but all the rest are indeed cloudy to various degree. You picked some of my favorites. Enjoy your mixing, Granny!

Thanks so much for the reply. I'm looking forward to trying some new things.

I also just got three of those, and while my Lemon Sicily seems clear or very close to it, Lime Cold Pressed and Mandarin are quite cloudy.

Isn't this a sign of oils in the flavors, and if so, shouldn't that cause some concern?

The Anise flavor I received was initially clear until I shook the bottle. It turned cloudy and never cleared up again.

There are more than oils that can cause that effect.

Concern? Depends on if you lump mineral, vegetable, citrus, coffee, tea, and mint oils into a single category.

I wouldn't recommend vaping mineral, vegetable or wintergreen oil, but the rest I'm fine with. Citrus oils are just a bugger to get to mix with PG and won't mix with VG. I use mint oils fairly often. Lots of folks extract oil out of coffee and teas to make their own flavorings.

Metal covers a wide range of things that react differently. Plastic covers a wide range of things that react differently. Oil covers a wide range of things that react differently. I don't assume mercury will act like iron, nor polycarbonate will act like polypropylene, and I apply the same logic to oil. (There are some mixers who equate all things of the same family as the same thing, I'm just not one of those.)

I would only vape the cloudy ones in SS/glass...

I wouldn't vape anything in polycarb...
