Liquid Nicotine Shelf Life?

[Drauder]

I have been reading about upcoming legislation bans, or other restrictions. I want to stickup on liquid nicotine. Does anyone know how long you can keep it. Does freezing work?

This autocorrect is driving me nuts. That should read I want to STOCK up, not stickup!

You can freeze it and if done correctly, should last years and years. Let me see if I can find a link in the DIY section of the forum. Be right back.

Me too! I've bought a few 120 mL, 48 mg nicotine bottles just in case our idiots in government place bans or restrictions on e-cigarettes. Getting the vg and/or pg down the road is no problem, as well as the concentrated flavours. The guy where I bought the nicotine says it will last for years kept in a cool, dark place. I estimate a 120 mL bottle will make enough e-liquid to last about six months. I mix it to make 320 mL of 18 mg nicotine e-liquid, vaping 55 mL a month on average.

Edit: btw, it is costing me approx $7 for 30 mL of my DIY e-liquid.

Here is a good thread for you to read through. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/537752-lifetime-supply-nicotine.html

Thank you from me as well.

I have over 2000ml in my freezer. I buy in bulk and seal in smaller dark colored bottles. Then seal them in foodsaver bags. When needed just get one small bottle out and keep in fridge. So far have had no problems.

That thread answers a lot. Thank you Robino1. It would seem it does not even develop a freezer burn taste. I think I will get more and put it in the freezer. It seems inevitable that it will either be taxed to the hilt or outright banned.
