You folks are putting your unflavored concentrated Nic liquid in the freezer ... is this really necessary?
I just bought (2ea) 500 ml bottles of 60mg PG Nic from RTS Vapes. This PG Nic is in those white plastic bottles you can't see through.
All I did is put them in a closed (dark) cabinet in the den.
It's going to take me a long time to go through 1000 ml of this unflavored 60mg PG since I mix my juice at 18mg.
Am I making a big mistake by not putting it in the freezer?
I am thinking this stuff will last a very long time if unopened and stored in a closed cabinet in the house ... am I wrong?
I split the difference and use the fridge.
Amber glass bottles....
Why are you guys stock piling Nic? Just curious...
You haven't tripped over any of this yet? => FDA Regulations

If the actual NIC% goes down a little bit, oh well. It is 100MG anyways, so no real loss.
I have some nic from Box Elderin my freezer dated back to November 2010. It has not changed since I put it in the freezer. I have some RTS nic that I purchased in May 2013 in my freezer that I am using now. Still as clear and odor free as the day that I bought it. Maybe the OPs nic was not great to start with.

There was a problem with Alchem-sourced nic about a year ago; some people reported getting sweat sock or fishy smell/taste from it. They were using some new extraction process. I believe MFS sourced their nic for a while then dumped it because of complaints about batch inconsistency.
I bought MFS during the summer sale and specifically asked if it was the Alchem lot in email and was told no.
If you check some of the threads on this forum for storing nic, the consensus seems to be that properly storing it in glass bottles with little air and in the freezer will keep it in good condition for a number of years with little degrading of the nic. All of mine that is not going to be used in the next few months is in the freezer.
What kind of caps did you get for the bottles? Inverted polyseal inserts? Or just flat "foam" inserts in the caps?
