The colour change is caused by the oxidation of the nic base. I've bought juice in the past 0mg and 6mg. The 0mg juice was almost colourless whilst the 6mg was a deep amber colour.
i believe this^^^^^
I mix my juices into coloured glass, and give them a good shake, no whisking air in, no large air spaces, no breathing no heat or bright light
Even after four or five months my mixes are clear. The only juices that darken are the ones I decant into plastic for taking out of the house if they sit about for a week or two they begin to darken.
I believe many people conflate two different processes the colour change and the flavour change that are not necesarily related as much as they think.
If we think darker juices taste better though, then they will taste better and we will think the lighter juices are not so good.
If folk want dark juice it can be achieved very quickly, whisk in lots of air, heat it up, leave the cap off and leave it in a sunny, south facing window, job done. There are videos on youtube with folk showing off how quickly they can "steep" their juices using colour change as the proof of the effectiveness of their methods. To me forced oxidation is nicotine abuse.
