and, want to fill it with another flavor. What I do now, is use a syringe to get the left over and put it in a small empty bottle. I dont want to put it in my orig bottle as I dont want to contaminate it. I started having various small empty bottles and of course forgot what was in it, so I just started dumping all of the juice in one larger bottle. ( 30ml almost full) Since all of my juice is basically tobacco I figure it cant be too bad in case of an emergency.
I was just curious how others out there deal with that small bit that is left in tank and the holes in carto just cant soak it up?
BTW, should I try the mystery juice? What if it turns out to be the best ever?

so you all just dump it, I guess since I wasted so much juice thru clumsiness and getting the hang of filling and slotting, and punching cartos etc. that I feel I need to "save" the juice. I really thought there would be some fun and interesting ways others did with their left overs. Thought that once the juice was in a tank and expose to our mouth bacteria, the gunk in the coil etc, that it might contaminate the bottle of juice. I guess since I get 30 and 60 ml bottles. Thanks for your replies and it makes me wonder just how many gallons we dump a year? In a couple weeks Ive collected about 30mls already of a few tobacco and cherry tobaco mixes. HA HA HA HA HA, when the apocalypse hits and the juice runs dry then you will remember "anavidfan"

I also pour it back into the original. If there's very little, dump it. I have so much juice, I'm not too worried about a drop. Unless, you're feeling experimental, you could make your own unique flavor by collecting remnant [preferably complimentary] liquid into one bottle and see if it comes out with a flavor you can't describe..?

I do the same thing I do after emptying cartos with Reverse Taryn Spin: I add it go my "GOK" (God/Gaia Only Knows) bottle. :matrix:

GOK was a special comment type like "/* LINTED */ that was a private joke at a former employer. I'd call it Mystery Juice but "MJ" seems like a label that could get me busted.

I keep the GOK bottle handy at all times because I do not want to keep it very long. In general I mix in about 1/6 GOK with other bottles I'm creating that mix my favorite flavor with my WTA juice (which does not come in my favorite flavors)

So my "Happy Me" bottle always has 1/6-1/3 GOK, 1/2 WTA, and the rest is my favorite flavor.

It occurs to me that this means I need 2 GOK bottles that I can tell apart so that after awhile I really truly empty one, so I can wash it and start it again. But these are 10 ml bottles in my case.

Thats what im hoping for also, but a bit afraid of. What if it turns out the the dang BEST juice? Guess I might as well try it out, cause if there is any bad stuff like bacteria, with all this heat it might start gurgleing into some sort of toxic bio-hazard.

You may turn into a vape zombie.

so, when you do the spin, do you put your carto is some sort of baggie or bottle to catch all if the precious?
I have some pretty big pill bottles, in fact the biggest ones are too big. So when I want to reclaim the juice, I still put condoms on the cartos (open end down) and carefully empty them into the teeny bottle after a good spin. But after 2 spins I'm done reclaiming.

Then I soak them in hot water and just put them into the pill bottle without any condoms because I'm just going to dump the dirty water down the toilet. I do that spin twice also, then optionally soak with vodka and spin again. So far I seem to have a 50% death rate, but if I threw them away it would be a 100% death rate. And it's really the juice I'm after anyway.

Note the pill bottles are very easy to tie string to for spinning, and my pharmacy also uses easy-peel labels. I could fit about 8 cartos into one bottle, so I wait until I have a handful.

I've always saved a few pill bottles for putting gathered garden seeds into anyway, so I just went to my stash and grabbed one.

The pipe shop I used to go to had a jar of that. "Helli-fino".
Vape it, enjoy it (or don't) while it's there.

I decided to try the "my special blend" it was odd, I could taste the first juice I started with about month ago. It was Highbrows tobac de perique. I remember using it right off the bat, and thinking it was perfumey. Being the only one i had I kept at it. Because of my tank problems I ended up burning cartos one right after the other and I came to associate the burning taste with the juice, I hated it. I added other tobaccos that I ended up with, any way it was really good. I can now appreciate the tobac de perique and should I had let it steep for a couple weeks, it would have been wonderful. I will enjoy my special blend and continue to taste the subtle remnants of earl grey, cherry and other tobaccos in it.
