In preparation for Vap0calyps3 and beginning of the Dark Ages (at least for a while), I've loaded up on 10liters of Chemnovatic nic and 8liters of Carolina eXtract nic. Hoarding hardware (but being real I fully expect to be able to continue getting it on the black and grey markets, since the rest of the world isn't going to stop time and stick its' head in the sand, even if the US is entering vaping stone-age for a few years/decades), etc.

While I don't have any questions about long-term storage of nic... how about PG, VG and flavorings? Now that I think about it... I've never really thought about it, it's something I take for granted and just reorder whenever necessary. Since the FDA is attempting such an insane level of over-reach by labeling 0mg e-liquid, kanthal, batteries (?) as "tobacco products", what's the take on PG and VG?

I'm assuming that it will be impossible to remove these things from the marketplace, and vendors will just need to re-label their products and make no mention of vaping, because otherwise it makes 0 sense ... the FDA regulating batteries? Somehow I just don't see it happening.

Anyway, to cut short my rant: what's the best way to store a few gallons of PG and VG? Does it need to be refrigerated? If yes, this kinda presents a problem... I can (and did) stuff roughly 40 years worth of nic into its' own separate freezer... but that's not gonna work out so well for PG/VG, I'd need to fill my entire basement or guest house with refrigerators, since it's a bit less compact ;-)

EDIT: Eh, sorry, I realize this should possibly be over in the DIY thread. I'm not seeing an option to move the post myself, if a mod is reading and able to move it there, cool, if not, oh well, sorry, my bad for posting here.

cool dark dry place is fine for PG and VG, that being said as those are used in different products and depending where you go to get it marketed different. For example essential depot is geared for home products but used by us

that said im not the final authority on how we are being screwed hehe
