Another dumb question from a newbe. I placed my 1st order to make my own
juice from WL Mar 9th. I take it the Nic will be in a plastic bottle.
Why does the bottle have to be glass to go into the freezer, why can't you put plastic bottles in the freezer? I know glass is stronger than plastic but why would that have anything to do with putting in the freezer? Does the NIC consentrate freeze"
Long and short, nic in glass has much less potential to pick up any chemicals from the container. Some have mentioned #1 plastic is also non-leaching, but most plastic containers will. It is a decision you need to make for yourself.
The most prevalent opinion I've picked up listening to the nic gurus on the DIY pages is that most of the folks here purchase nic in larger quantities and that necessitates migrating the base to smaller bottles for long term storage (to prevent unnecessary oxygen exposure every time you open a cap). Since you're moving the nic anyway, might as well spend a few extra pennies and get containers that pose the least hazard to their precious cargo! ;-)
I say this at the same time my 120ml container of 60mg that arrived yesterday was moved to 4 30ml plastic containers. This batch is not intended for storage, but I've used 60ml amber bottles for freezing in the past.
Liquid nic, either in a PG or VG base will not freeze solid in a standard freezer, just becomes more viscous (think cold maple syrup).
March 9th I was making my 1st order.
120ml of 60mg was in stock so I placed that in my cart. Went about shopping for other items, when I was finished the 120ml of 60mg was marked "Out Of Stock". So I looked at the 60ml of 60mg and it was in stock, so I deleted the 120ml off the cart and added the 60ml.
So while I was adding items to my cart, the 120 60mgNic became out of stock. I am hopeing I get my first order soon so I can make my first DIY batch. Tired of paying the high prices $8/10ml at the bacco store.
The 120ml/60mg batch I just received (vaping some now) is pleasing me greatly. No off flavors, nice and clean with my apple.
