When the only juice you have goes bad :-(

[Tobes]

So a little over three weeks ago I bought 100ml of a well known brand of e-juice. At first it tasted great. I always syringe out what I need into 10ml bottles. Pulling out a syringe in a pub just doesn't look classy ;-) Anyway,this also means that I'm not exposing the juice to air too often. It's also always stored in a cool,dark place.

About 55ml through the bottle,it's transformed into the most unvapeable,bitter,acrid,flavourless crap on Earth. Vile beyond belief. This experience has led me to believe there are good juices and bad juices and brand is not necessarily an indication of quality. And if it's cheap,there's probably a reason eh?

It just cheeses me off that I'm pouring 45ml of juice down the bog,when I should be getting a satisfying vape off it to the bottom of the bottle. My vendor's closed today on account of the bank holiday,so it's a Nicorette gum day.

I'm now very reluctant to buy 100ml bottles again,if this is how it goes. It's not really cost effective to pay £14,only to have to ditch half of it.

Has anybody else out there had a similar experience,despite their best efforts to look after the juice?

Meh! Grrr! Sod it!

OK, rantish thing over :-)

I always put them in the fridge, that seems works

I'll give the fridge a go in future then ;-)

Virginia by any chance? I started off on this, from a different vendor I think. It seems to vary by batch. Now I've tried few other juices I've a feeling it's not the best quality juice. I'm a noob though. Also, lol at syringe in the pub. Fair play, I'm nervous enough about just vaping in public

The first juices I ever got we're rank for the first moment and almost put me off vaping. But in terms of an all day vape, I tend to buy no bigger than 30ml bottles to keep it fresher. I sell medicines for a living and everything has 2 shelf lifes. One for unopened and the other for when broached. Once oxygen gets in contact with anything it tends to start degrading quickly. The default shelf life once broached is 28 days (tho others can be 5 days to 3 months). Compare that with sometimes up to 3-4 years unopened!

Ha! Virginia it was!!! :-) It turned vile! I'm giving Hangsen another chance. Got some of their RY4,which I quite like so far. Interesting how the stuff changes from a healthy pee colour to golden brown after ten minutes in a clearo though!

Ah,we'll see :-)
