I've been reading quite a bit but one thing I've not seen is shelf life of juice.
How long does this schtuff last and how should it be stored?

Shelf Life?

Keep it in a cool, dry place, preferably dark. As far as shelf life...I know there's some guys on here who've had juice for 6months to a year.
Just keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. You can refrigerate if you want, but the juice won't get its flavor back until it warms up to room temperature again.
Keep it in the pantry or in a drawer, somewhere dark. It last a long time, up to 2 years, but I wouldn't use it later than that.
Thanks much folks.
Shouldn't be a problem with about 2 yr shelf life...I've kept wives a lot shorter period

Still have about 6 bottles of Dekang Flue Cured juice labeled "Exp. 06/24/2011" and have no problems using it - it has the same color, smell and the same strength as when I bought a crap load in June of 2009.
P.S. - stored it in the townhouse basement, no fridge.

The unflavored liquid I'm using now was purchased on 8/17/09; over two years old.
Stored in freezer.
It is still clear and produces firm TH when diluted to 12mg; seems good as new.
Guess the 2 year shelf life does not apply to my unflavored.

thats good news, i was wondering about if you could freeze them to make them last longer, thank you
On a shelf that receives minimal sunlight I saw marked changes in my flavors within a few months, store in a dark place for sure.
I am vaping on some juice now that is almost 2 years old and it is actually better than it was when I first bought it. I keep all my juice is a tackle-like box under the bed.
The 2 year thing I'm betting is a guess that someone threw out and has now taken on a life of it's own and become gospel.
My stuff is stored in the coolest room in my house, and I started vaping at the first of the year and bought tons of stuff to try from different suppliers. I just pulled out some older stuff in the last week just to use it and get rid of it (meaning stuff about 6-8 months old and that i've not touched in months), and about half of it has gone bad.
'Bad' meaning it tastes wrong, and the color has actually changed (usually gotten much darker, changing from yellow to orangish, etc). These were diff juices from diff vendors, some is fine, some isn't, so it's not a problem with a particular vendor, probably more to due with the different flavorings they used.

I only store unflavored long term; try to minimize number ingredients that could spoil the mix.
