Thinking about making my own Juice???

[rednutt]

Yeah teethcv I'm nervous about it and that why I've only bought 100ml of nic just now to see if I get the hang of it.
I've got lots of joosejuice steeping just now and some from alchemist so I will be relying on my vendor juice for the time being while I practice and my aim is to make vapable juice and stockpile stuff for future so that nasty government can't stop me

The black e-juice is probably off if it's black and 2 years old depends a lot on the flavouring. Off e-juice has a distinct taste peppery sort of.

Hi,

Firstly, Black or dark e-juice, does not indicate that it has gone off, just the opposite... it has most likely matured very well.... I have bottles at 2 years old in my personal collection, and they are some of the best you can taste.

Don't throw away what could be a very nice juice.

Secondly, fresh nic can and often does have a peppery smell / taste. It needs time to mature and blend once mixed with other components. The peppery note will decapitate with proper steeping.

Some  suppliers of Nicotine (usually from USA, China, India, etc) send older stock where the nicotine has already aged, most Nic from the USA is Indian manufactured and imported to the USA and then sold to customers in the UK. So can be a few months old before purchased.

Whoopsy. I just ditched it all.  Never mind I'm currently vaping on your mint choc ice cream . Yum .  Also got your mint chocolate which has the lid off as it has a slightly biscuit smell to it but it was only made on 31/3. So will come back to that one later

Indeed it is rednutt. . . providing they've not been close to a heat source or in direct sunlight, there's no reason for a well matured 2 year old eliquid to not be vapeable.

Perpetua this is what they've been in the whole time and where I store my recently bought juices. Not near the radiator either.

[Perpetua]

That looks an ideal storage solution rednutt.

[rednutt]

It was actually a cocktail box and I vaguely remember the night I used it haha!

[Pepperty]

Goforsmoke seem to be offering a good deal on Nic Base currently rednutt:

www.goforsmoke.com/500ml-unflavoured-e-liquid---pgvg-based-72mg-nicotine-9823-p.asp

And if you want to add a ' cooling ' effect to your Mint Choc Chip, try adding some Koolada, it has no flavour but gives the sensation you get eating an ice-cream.

Though the couple of places I've looked are currently out of stock, but they're bound to re-stock soon . . . .

www.chefsvapour.co.uk/Koolada_10/p1901058_11133838.aspx

Can I just ask does PG/VG nic bases have a shelf life - I also want to try making my own, but thinking that 500 ml would last me years

It does. A couple of years . . . far longer if you store it in the freezer.

In 3 years of mixing I've used 1.5 litres of 75mg mixing mainly for myself and a few friends.
