I put it all in the freezer because I didn't have glass bottles to decant it in. It does make more sense though to divide into smaller bottles and just pull one of those out instead of the jug.

Yes, smaller bottles almost filled to top. You want to minimize air exposure over time.
I divide into 120ml. for storage once open, with 16 50ml jars for ready grab and go.
Each jar handles monthly mixes or more......depending on family needs.:rolleyes:

Maybe so but I would still like to know what you think, Louie! Surprise :shock: I guess it was a dumb question, huh. Just nervous about such high concentrations of nic. It's so toxic. :)
honestly, i think you will find dealing with the higher concentration nic (100mg) is not that bad - ventilated area, glove up, long sleeves - when you open big bottle, immediately separate into smaller bottles for storage, that way when you ARE using it, you only get a little out at a time... when i mix, i glove up and measure out my nic first, then put it away, rinse syringe and then proceed to mixing...
Or go with 60mg instead of 100. ;) Not as toxic as you think (it is to pets though, so watch any spills). Make a bunch of prediluted base at a time and you'd only have to be careful that one time. But if you're more comfortable with 6mg base, that's fine too. Your money would just go a little further is all, if you diluted it yourself with your own PG/VG.

Not a dumb question at all. :) I think even 6mg would benefit from freezing if you're storing it for say, more than a month or two. The trick with storing any kind of nic is to minimize headroom in the bottle, store in glass (dark preferred), and try not to keep opening and closing it. Nic doesn't like air, light and heat.

I only dabbled in DIY for a short time, longs ago. But I did as others here suggest. Kept my big bottle of 100mg in the freeze, and would refill a 60ml as needed, that I just kept in my cold room. And that was when I was doing 24 and 18mg. Now at 3mg, a 30ml would get me pretty far before I'd have to go back to it. I need to reinstall Ejuicemeup. GREAT tool, but off the top of my haid, I think that 30ml of 100mg would make several months worth of juice.

Gloves and safety glasses ARE a good idea when handling that though. I wouldn't bother with much more, I'd just be ready to head to the shower if anything STOOPID happened. :)

So if I got 100ml of 100mg nic, I would separate that into 30ml bottles for the freezer, right? I vape 6mg nic juice. I would want to make that I know I can reduce that to 3 if I need to.

Well STOOPID things happen around here all the time. I can already envision dropping a glass bottle onto my granite countertops and having it go from there to my travertine floor. The cats would be on the counter and the dog on the floor. I am all thumbs sometimes it seems and for medical reasons my balance is not that good LOL If I do this I will lock up all the pets while I am doing it. :eek::thumb::lol:

I think this is the reason I left it in the jug because it's labeled. I put it in the freezer that's on the fridge in my pantry. Hardly anyone here goes in that freezer except me. I store bags of nuts, spices when I catch them on sale and chips for cookies and cakes in that freezer.

I label all Nicotine Bottles with strength and Poison warnings.:thumbs:

Minus all the back supplies/bottles/etc. :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

Wow, that is great. Very cool stand. Is that flavorings? I am going to download the calculator and take a look. It sounds like it would make this whole process much easier. Thank you so much!

We have a freezer like that and it sounds like a perfect place to store it. :) hmmm did you say cakes??? Someone needs to go into that freezer more often LOL:D

So I shouldn't have put my entire bottle of 120ml, 100mg Nic liquid in the freezer? I pull it out, shake it, use it, then put it back??

Good afternoon everyone!!!! It's been a day and it ain't over yet! Lol
How often do you pull it out, shake it and use it though? Every time you open the cap, you're letting air in - you want as much of your nic as possible to stay undisturbed. Eventually, you'll end up with headroom in the bottle too, which would trap air with your nic. Remember, nic doesn't like air, light and heat. ;)
