When I first quit smoking, I went a little crazy buying up juice left and right due to the novelty and newness of it. I would have around 12-13 droppers of 30 and 60 ML sitting on the bar at home. Perhaps a couple more in the glove box of my car, and a couple more stashed in my desk at work.

Now that a significant chunk of time has passed things have stabilized a bit. I tend to buy 100ML bottles of juice I really like and I will have maybe 4-5 on hand. I also do not deviate much from custard, cookies, cake, pudding, etc. type of stuff anymore. I am not as adventurous I guess.

What about you?

I DIY, and have 6-8 120ml Boston rounds made up. Usually 3-4 different flavors of tobacco blends, tiramisu and fruits. One bottle for use , another for steeping. I have a lot of premade stuff I use rarely that I had before making my own. Most of the store bought stuff is too sweet for me. I can't handle sweet vapes.

I've got 9 15ml bottles that I fill tanks from. Each of them has a larger backup bottle on the shelf, from 30ml to 120 ml depending on how fast I get through them. A couple of flavors that need longish steeping have 2 or 3 30ml bottles of different ages.

I used to have a lot more flavors going. Lately I cut it down to 9 flavors which makes life simpler. Also because I found a classy walnut stand with 9 holes that are the right size for 15ml bottles.

And hey Robby, I just noticed you joined ECF 4 days before me, and you live just up the road. We're almost like brothers.

    At the start I was like you Robbie - and I still have most of them. On hand now ive got at least 20 different bottles. But once I tried a premium e-liquid, I've found the cheap ones just taste nasty now.

    I keep at least a 50ml on hand of my current favourite mix. Getting into diy next - so I've cleared out a cupboard for that ;)

    One thing to note, don't store juice in the glove compartment of your car. Summer is coming, the juice may well oveheat and degrade (just my opinion as always).

    I usually mix 11 100 ml flavors per month. I believe I may decrease the amount, and mix more different flavors.

    I DIY and have more flavors than I can probably use before they go bad, so I'm holding off on more flavors (yes, it's hard) I have most of a 2.5 gallon jug of VG in my closet, and enough nic for the rest of my life in the freezer.

    So, I guess I have a "lot" of juice on hand, but I mix on a schedule, it works better for me that way. Etc.

    No real reason not to have "too much" juice on hand, if you feel you won't use it within a two year period, it's maybe time to stop buying (although well stored juice may well last longer than that) that is the figure I tend to hear. So, buy when you need to, and that may require keeping track of your flavors a bit and etc.

    I DIY. I have usually 1000-1500 ml of juice ready to go. Some of it is flavors we (my wife and I) use only occasionally, and I keep those at 50-100 ml per flavor, and I mix up our more used flavors around 250 ml per flavor.

    That’s about what I have, too.
