How long can I store Juice?

[VadimGod]

I jumped the gun and ordered a bunch of 12mg juice, it hasnt even arrived yet and im realizing i will need 18-24mg in order not to have my PV solidly attached to my face (chain vaping). I was thinking of just using the 12mg to get a feel for flavors then order what I like in higher dose. The 12mg would be my emergency backup and also for future when i'm furthur removed from my analog addiction and step down the dose.

How long should I reasonably consider storing the 12mg juice before it'll go bad, does it degrade/expire? Whats the best way to store it? Fridge, freezer under the mattress where it can accumulate value...is that how it works? im new.

I ordered from Ivape.net which i hear makes good juice and is 80/20 if that makes a difference for any of the above questions.

Thanks all.

Store? Juice? I just keep it in my pocket. Do you mean like if you have some left over? i've never had that problem. I've heard that you can keep it in the fridge.

MEaning that I have ordered 12mg juice and have decided i will be using 18-26mg for the time being, What do I do with 6 10ml bottles of 12mg juice that I dont want to use now, can I save it and use it 6 months - 1 year from now when im over cigs and can smoke 12mg juice without having to chain vape puff after puff after puff to feel satisficed?

Consider reserving the 12mg juice for use in the evening. Many people find that too much nicotine before bedtime interferes with getting to sleep.

60mL isn't really that much juice. I probably have that much in my desk at work; some of it is over 2 years old and seems to vape just fine.

Cool thanks for.the info also, now I know why I havent been able to sleep for 2 days up all night vaping instead.

It depends on the vendor. Some will give a date listed on the bottle how long it will be good. Generally, it's 1-2 yrs.

Just kidding, of course. Store it in a cool, dark place. I should be fine for a few months. Actually, I do have some juice I didn't like much that's been steeping for a few months. As already mentioned, contact the vendor and ask how long the shelf life is.

DO NOT STORE IT IN THE FRIDGE! Condensation will taint the flavorings and will turn it bad. Juice will last approximately 18 months from the date of purchase. If you buy China made juice, use it up first because we don't know how long it has been sitting.

For storing: keep out of sunlight and in a cool, dark place. I have a closet that doesn't get any heat.

Duly noted. I will edit my post. Thanks!

It should keep for around two years in a cool dark place. If you plan to keep it that long, it needs to be in glass bottles as well.

I have stored juice for 2 years in a cool dark drawer in plastic bottles and its fine.So Id say 2 years.

I've heard this around the boards, but I don't understand it. How does condensation taint the juice? If juice is evaporating and condensing *inside* the bottle, it will just fall right back into the juice, adding nothing new to the mix. If it's condensing on the outside of the bottle, then it won't get into the bottle, just condense on the outside. I don't understand what people mean when they say condensation will ruin the juice.

I've never put juice in the fridge, so I don't know if it does something bad. It just doesn't seem like condensation would be what is happening.

Deep freeze, even better (no glass in this case though).

The key things are not temperature, other than cool (that'll do). They are :

1) Air tight !

2) No sunlight !

JUST NOTICED MY SIGNATURE, A PACK A DAY ADS UP quick!! 1 cig at a time tasting nasty is one thing but Thinking of 72 cigs laying on a table and knowing that would have been in my lungs by now is a nasty thought. vape vap vape. I started vaping to save $$ and avoid smelling like an ashtray, never been a health nut, but having been clean a bit and around the forum, im starting to appreciate the health factors too. thanks again all.
