E-juice question???

[Je12ome]

Can ejuice go bad or have an expiration date???

It can but tends not to. A year at minimum stored in a crappy plastic bottle in direct sunlight.

Typically a year shelf life. You want freshly steeped juice for the best flavor!

Usually a year. Also steeping makes a big difference in the flavor of the juice

I agree with one year at least. I would not worry if mine got to two years old, but I keep them out of sunlight.

Thank you all for the response... Wasn't sure if my 4 month old ejuice was still good to vape.

That's why I'd rather get 10ml bottles cause if you start to get sick of the flavor, it wouldn't be much of a waste to toss it out if its been stored in those bottles for quite a while.

I have found 1yr old + Ejuices have become harsh to the gums and the flavours have become bittered. I believe the gum harshness is attributed to old nicotine.Fresh is much better.

This is a good question. I was wondering this myself I have juice that is 4 months old, thank you to all the experts at replied I can rest easy now when I try them.

I know that propylene glycol oxidize and forms lactic acid and can become corrosive but I have no clue how long it takes for that processe to start. I know that nicotine's love for oxygen is greater than romeo's for juliette, so I hypothesize that a higher nic juice would preserve the propylene glycol a little longer... But that's just me saying that, I'm no chemist.

Somebody know anything about this?

Gee, I bought some recently and it was already a year old, seems okay, I'm still alive. But do we have to ask how old the juice is now before we order it?

Most reputable place will mix the juice when you order it.

Yes, I know, but this vendor is very well known in Canada and on the west coast and has a good reputation, they carry several types juices other than their own , like MLV and Jugheads etc. It was several of these that I had ordered.

I have a gallon jug of 50/50 pg/vg that is 36mg and it's over three years old. It's the same today as it was when I bought it. I have some juices that I mixed up years ago that are nasty and had to be tossed. So I would say it's the flavorings not the VP PG or nic that is going bad.
