re: No telling what the juice will be like when you finish it

Love to hear some suggestions on how to store it and how long it might be good for.
My thoughts when ordering it were partly based on wanting to stock up before regulations hit. Also I figured it could not taste any worse than the millionth MArlboro I was still lighting up 20 something times a day. I see it as a vehicle to get nicotine in my body. Simple as that. It is the first flavor I have felt like I could vape forever with a few other things thrown in.

my understanding is that it lasts for about a year. if it IS an adv, you might want to get it.

most folks, that i see here, refrigerate or freeze nic juice. you can stock up on that and DIY as you need it.

though i forgot what flavor you were talking about. :facepalm:

Congrats, roonies! And ugh on the surgery - but it's better than staying in pain. Wish I had something more optimistic to add to that!


Thanks Khala. I'm a pro at this. It'll be fine. :)


Welcome to the forum, piggypinggy. There really isn't juice out there that smells like a "real cigarette". You are more likely to find juice that smells like good pipe tobacco, or like tobaccos that aren't lit.

How old is your 555? MBV tobaccos take a good month or two to age before they are good.

555 isn't one of my favorites, but there are a lot of folks here who love it.
I'd go for Coumarin Pipe, East Coast Tobacco, USA Tobacco, and Vanilla Tobacco at the moment. (At least until I can test my Ankara and see how it's doing.)



Morning, MBV peeps!

Stealthing Vanilla Tobacco today and working on my first cup of java. Hope everyone has a lovely day!

I never hear anyone talk about the RY4. I have some of the flavoring. Any suggestions on what to add to it to make it something better? Madagascar Vanilla maybe, with a wee bit of butterscotch or caramel candy??

I should have vape mail today too, and it's been awhile. My MVP2 is due in today. It will be my first vv/vw device and I'm excited. Thinking of getting the smaller form factor Inokin ITaste vv/vw3 for stealth. Anyone have one? I like that they're ego size but square, and have the variable wattage too. Reviews seem to be good.

Hope everyone is having a good morning. I'm up way early since I was up til 7:30 am.....might have to power nap it today!!

What is that you don't like about the RY4 I think it's wonderful.

re: No telling what the juice will be like when you finish it

Love to hear some suggestions on how to store it and how long it might be good for.
My thoughts when ordering it were partly based on wanting to stock up before regulations hit. Also I figured it could not taste any worse than the millionth MArlboro I was still lighting up 20 something times a day. I see it as a vehicle to get nicotine in my body. Simple as that. It is the first flavor I have felt like I could vape forever with a few other things thrown in.

The *best* way to stock up in terms of ease of storage and keeping the nic good for the longest amount of time is to get nic in a 100%VG base and plan to add the flavorings and any PG yourself. VG with nic is slightly more stable than PG with nic over the long term (years). There are posts about it in the DIY forum if you're interested. Having said that, the difference in PG with nic and VG with nic in terms of long term stability is indeed slight... but there is a reason VG based nic is favored by DIYers, too.

Having said all of that, this is what *I* would do if I had that much *premade* juice on hand (and in fact, I do have a 236ml bottle of Pumpkin Spice I did exactly this with).

Decant some of it into 30ml or 50ml bottles for your immediate daily use.

Decant the rest into glass bottles (cobalt or amber, doesn't matter which as long as it'll block light). Then, stick the bottle/bottles in the fridge or freezer. The juice won't freeze because home freezers don't get cold enough to freeze PG/VG. How many bottles to use depends on how you plan to steep it.

Re: steeping - cold slows down nic degradation, but juice won't steep if it's cold. There's two ways to handle that.

You can steep the whole giant bottle *first* by leaving it at room temp till it tastes good. (This is what I did.) Then put it in the freezer till you need it. Decant your freezer-stored juice into your "immediate use" bottles as needed, let it come to room temp, shake well, and you'll have "pre-steeped" ready to vape juice.

Your other option is to put it in the freezer unsteeped decant/steep as needed, but be aware that if you do it that way, the clock has essentially stopped on steep time from the minute the juice goes in the freezer, so you need to allow for steeping from the time you take it back out of the freezer. That's why if you put it in the fridge/freezer unsteeped, you may want to use smaller bottles, because smaller bottles steep faster. If you freeze it presteeped, you can put it in a few larger bottles, decant into your ready to use bottles as needed, and be good to go.

I do all my longterm storage in glass because plastic can potentially leech things into the juice over a long period of time.

Just like with steeping, everyone has their own storage process, but those are the basic principles.

If the liquid is organic most vendors say 5-8 months. If it uses artificial flavorings then double that.

I store mine in A vacated humidor along with all my supplies.
