Vape mail! Just got a fresh 120ml bottle of Carolina Extraction nic :) easier to buy it like that as I need it and let the sleeping dogs lie in their dark cold chamber ;)
Good stuff !!!
I don't have any 100% nic stored, all mine is already mixed in 50/50 PG/VG (unflavored).
Thinking out loud: So my question is ... do ingredients settle out? When filling smaller containers from larger containers, is it a good idea to shake the larger container up if it hasn't been opened in a month or so?
I always do, but wondered if it was necessary. I get mine from Nicotine River and don't recall seeing a label warning to "shake before using" ... maybe I should email them.

Good question. I think you should, just in case. Won't hurt. I do it. Still like to hear what others say and the response to your email.

^^^ BWAH HA HA HA !!! :D

Just emailed Nicotine River:

I use your 50/50 with either 12mg or 18mg UNFLAVORED. My question is, if a larger container is unopened for a month or longer before filling a smaller container ... do I need to shake the larger container well? In other words, does the PG/VG and nic separate and settle in storage? Thank You for your response. Respectfully ... Hobbs

I'm anxious to hear their response, I don't think the nic does settle out personally, once it is mixed properly I believe it stays in solution. I have seen lots of shake well before using labels though, so there is that...

Just checked the label on a recent Nicotine River shipment ... no shake well note ... but again, mine is unflavored if that makes a difference.

WoW !!! Quickest response ever. Was outside a few minutes with the dogs, came back inside and found this ...

Hi Hobbs,

It’s not necessary that you shake it, but it is recommended to ensure the product is mixed thoroughly. Thank you so much!

100% nic?!!! I don't think so! We're not even allowed to talk about anything over 10% nic (100 mg/ml).

Do you add flavoring or vape it as is?

As is. Tried (virtually) EVERY off the shelf tobacco ejuice ... even virtually every flavoring from Bull City Vapor for DIY. None NONE came even close to what I'd smoked in any way shape or form. I tried some foofoo flavors too. Never enjoyed smoking fruit, bakery products, candy or desserts, and don't enjoy vaping them either. SOooo unflavored it is or not at all.
