So just a few seconds ago I washed my empty 120ml bottle of vape juice with tap water. I dried with a hot air dryer and I poured 60ML Of Vg and the rest I put PG FLAVOR AND NIC. However the actual top of the bottle still had a little residue from when I ran the tap water through it and I closed it and shook it. Just wondering if it's safe to vape if it was only a little bit of tap water?
Little tap water in my vape juice Should I be worried?

i buy from rts vapes and usually stick with the TFA flavorings. rts carries some of the other brands but i have not tried them.
No, a drop or two of tap water will not make it unsafe (unless your tap water is already highly unsafe). Basically, the reason to only use distilled water when mixing ejuice is because of the possible mineral and/or bacterial content of tap water. In general, most tap water is pretty low, and shouldn't be a problem in small amounts. Tap water is highly regulated as far as bacterial count, and also for harmful minerals, but if you have really hard water (usually calcium, which won't hurt you to drink), it might give you coil problems. But not with a drop or two in 60 ml. You're fine.
Extremely hard tap water might cause coil issues in large or regular use, and I suppose I wouldn't care to vape it either.
But concerns over a bit of regular water? Yeah... I'm picturing a basic "wet" sauna. And laughing.

No worries I often will wash bottles and not even dry the inside and pour a freshly mixed batch into it. Never noticed any difference.
OMFG! This is terrible. Of course it's not safe. If I were you, I would throw out that bottle with poisonous water to the bottom of the ocean. And call an ambulance if you already vaped some of that juice.
On a serious note, can't believe that someone, who's inhaling PG, VG and flavor vapor into his lungs, is worried about a drop of tap water...

I use tap water to dilute my VG, not a little drop but 20% in total. I have planty of atomizers in stock that I not worry about and also becuase I just keep on forgetting to buy distilled water for last 2 months.
