juice query

[genoxy]

Hi All,

1) Does juice have a use by date? Can they be stored for years with no issues.

2) I have low concentration nic - 36mg in 30ml 80PG/20PG mix because I'm in Australia and thats the highest I could order, does that have to be stored in freezer or just cool, dark place?

3) All my juices are delivered in plastic bottles, not glass. Is this a problem for storage?

Thanks

I've read many places where it is up to one year but can be extended my keeping it in a dark, cool and dry place. I've also read where the nic will decrease but not the flavor for up to 2 years. I really don't know for sure. I don't foresee this being a problem for me. I'm sure someone here will know for sure. Lots of smart people here.

I have some that was a year old and got really nasty. It was the JC brand in the little variety glass bottles. I had a 30 ml menthol from Wicked and that was just fine.

There is a good thread about this in the DIY forum. Several chemists weighed in - I seem to recall the consensus was that unflavored nic could be kept a very long time (years) so long as it was kept in glass, in the dark, kept cool, and care was taken to minimize oxygen contact (i.e. topping off storage containers to minimize the amount of air in the bottle.) I'll try to find the post.

That'd be great, thanks!
