IMO I think it will be fine. I have to take mine out to let it get to room temp. I only have 3 100ml bottles that I store nic in for use. The rest is in liter bottles so I have to let it get to room temp since my nic is in a 50/50 solution then I can shake it up real good and fill my 300mls and seal it back up and put it back in the freezer. But I have kept a bottle 100ml at room temp for a month and it is just fine. I try to keep it refrigerated the one I am using from but a lot of times I forget (no not me). Too many other things to worry about. Just keep it in a dark place and sealed should be good for a couple of months. Hopefully your power will be on before that,
I keep a couple of 120ml bottles in my cupboard here at home. The rest is in the freezer at my sisters. It sits in the cupboard for months without change.

Well I tried another Liquid Barn flavor called Blue Raspberry and some of you might like it, it's not really for me because I don't care for candy flavors and that is what it tastes like to me hard raspberry candy. I did find out the recommended amount of 6% was way too much 3% is better but like I say I don't care for candy flavors. It has a really strong raspberry taste but like I say like candy. Will give another a try soon.
I can't do raspberry. I can candies but not real ones or for vaping.

There they go. Blamin' me again. :(
Huh? Usually it's me. Just not so blatant :D

That one caught my eye. Dinna fash is something we would say where I grew up in the north of England by the Scottish border. Was your Nana from over there?
My Nana's nana was from Scotland. When Nana was a child, her nana lived with the family. Nana's mother (my great grandmother) also lived with Nana until her death. Scots English and Scots Gaelic was commonplace. Oops! None of them vaped, though! :lol:

Thanks for the responses! My mixes are 65-70% VG. Can't go higher; even at 70, my lungs can get heavy. I'm using mostly FA flavorings, mixed at no more than 10% total flavor. This one was 7%.

So, I poured out 20 mls of the dry juice to another bottle and added .5mls marshmallow. Then I poured out another 20 mls and added .5mls of EM. Both newly formulated bottles are "wetter," but the one with EM has a different flavor profile than the one with marshmallow (whose flavor was virtually unchanged). Marshmallow for the win!

Googlefu also turned up a tip for better (i.e., wetter and more complex) mouthfeel for fruit vapes: Inw Cactus. Several highly regarded mixologists on the-forum-whose-name-shall-not-be-mentioned suggested adding a few drops of Cactus (maybe 2/10 mls). Ima try it.

Since I started to DIY, I have been using the candy/fruit flavors with pastries. This evening is Juicy Peach Pie. I don't know about taking the sugar directly though. I guess with dough, cream, or custard it works okay.

There is room in the world for candy, I just have to dress it up.

Nice to kick back with a juicy peach pie.

When I first started DIY I did a blueberry cream & used blueberry candy along with blueberry extra & bilberry. The candy made it sweeter & juicier.

Yeah I'm still vaping it trying to figure out what it tastes like and I think it's a Kool Aid flavor but not sure which one. It's not Raspberry Ginny thinks it tastes like Raspberry Jello. It's not bad if you like that flavor.
My next one I'm going to try is one of the Russians called Mango Mix. I tried it once at 3% and I remember it was strong and kinda sour so I'm going to try it at 1% and go from there. It's supposed to be Mango with Tropical Fruit. One thing I've notice about the Russians fruit flavors either they are strong or weak but they are like the actual fruits not like candy. Gotta give it another try one of the ones that made it through on the order from Russia so I have 100ml of it. It's real popular in Germany but from what I can tell they like their flavors really strong. I have another to try that I also have 100ml it's caramelized nuts. Going to start with 1% with that also.

Another thing I have found out about the Bakers Flavor from Russia is they taste even better at lower %. The caramel tastes really good at 1.25% with .5% of Creme Charlotte. Another guy tried to tell me that their flavors taste even better at lower % but I wouldn't listen. Now a year and a half later I'm believing it.

Carching up from a very busy day. Dinner with my step sister - see back porch.

I was going to tell you I have read where marshmallow can add moisture. But guess you found that. Read the other day about INW Cactus, gotta get some to try. On the road I can't mix, but a have a few recipes to play with when I can.

When I read about the cactus, I was skeptical. Then I tried the marshmallow. Now, I'm a believer :)

I also read that FA Sweet Woodruff brings out the vanilla in vanilla. At this rate, I'll have about 300 flavors, each of which is used in 2 drop increments!

VapeNW is having a Columbus Day sale- 10% off all mods and attys from now through 10-10.

Discount code is 10%offColumbusday <<<all 1 word

I just ordered one of the new Eleaf Pico squeeze (bottom feeder) mods with an included topper for $25 and change. I'll probably have it Wednesday, they have been pretty fast with previous orders.

Yep I saw that too still doesn't bring the one I want down enough. I have one more DNA I want to get but been waiting for the prices to come down. It's the Lost Vape Therion DNA 133 in Red Ostrich. They want $149-10%+9.8% Sales Tax for me. FT has them for $117 but IDK about ordering a mod from them although Evolve would take care of the board if it was to have a problem. Just not sure about getting it from them. I've had really good luck with what I have ordered though.

I'm trying to save for my trip to Boston. But, Vapage has a sale on Hybrid Atomizers, the ones I love so much. I was getting ready to at least get the minimum amount to get free shipping. Then I noticed that there was no choice for resistance. It's only for 2.5 ohm.

I had been so excited. The 2 ohm Hybrids are my favorite 510 atty and perfect for little stealth (non-VV) batteries. If I'm using a big honking mod (in order to get VV/VW), no need to be stealthy. An RBA will be fine for that.

Oh, well. I can't afford it anyway.

Who knows? Once I get back from Boston, maybe they'll have a sale on the ones I really want. I love those little things.
