Nicotine Storage

[badnaamsingh]

I notice folks dilute 100mg Nic and store it in glass bottles.

#1 What's the formula to dilute Nic?

A - Assuming Base Nic is in 50/50 PG/VG
B - Assuming Base Nic is in 100% PG or VG

#2 What's the best kind of glass bottle for storage?

Thanks

Pyrex, I would assume.

I suggest that type because it's less likely to break. Though I haven't frozen any of my e-jiuces.

A tinted glass is best - light destroys Nic. I use amber bottles and keep it in the freezer to preserve it and keep it in the dark. PG doesn't freeze - it's also used as an antifreeze.

Other way around. You usually store it at strength, and dilute when mixing. Saves on storage space and glass bottles.

The preferred bottles are either cobalt (blue), or amber which is so dark as to look almost brown. Use glass because it's impermeable to oxygen, and the dark colors to block the light - not that there is much light in a refrigerator or freezer. My assumption is that the light really does go off when you close the door.

Depends how much freezer space you have and what you want your end mg to be.

2) cobalt or amber bottles

Thanks all!

Does anyone have thoughts on this?

Depends on what % is your nic, and what do you want the final % to be.
