Does Vape Juice Go Bad?
Like any perishable product, vape liquid can go bad. Every bottle you buy should have an expiration date. Don’t buy a bottle that’s close to expiring unless you’re sure you’re going to use it up by the expiration date.
If you store your e-juice properly, it can last up to two years. Improper storage and handling can make it go bad before that. The best place to store e-liquid is the refrigerator. If you can’t or don’t want to store it there, keep it any place that’s shielded from heat and light. Keep it tightly sealed.
Why Does My E-Juice Turn Brown?
E-liquid that’s left in your tank or a bottle can sometimes turn brown. Why does this happen?
It’s a natural process called oxidation. This is the same process that turns a slice of apple or banana brown when it sits on your counter.
It isn’t harmful, and it won’t alter the flavor or your vaping experience. If you want to avoid it, follow these steps:
What Should You Know About VG and PG in Juice?
The levels of VG and PG in your juice can make a difference. When you shop for juices, check the levels of these key ingredients to get the experience you want.
VG:
If you’re looking for vape juice for your tank setup, any juice will work. Choose a high-VG one if cloud production matters to you. If you’re looking for a juice to fill your pod mod or you care more about flavor than clouds, look for one that’s at least 50% PG.

Are the Ingredients In E-Liquid Safe?
Vegetable glycerin and propylene glycol: There are no known problems with either VG or PG, both of which are common ingredients found in a number of foods, cosmetics, and personal care products.
Nicotine: Nicotine is addictive, but it’s not what causes smoking-related illnesses. If you’re addicted to nicotine, vaping is a much safer way to get your fix than smoking. It also smells better and is more socially acceptable.
Flavorings: Most e-liquids use a combination of artificial and natural flavorings. Most have added sweeteners. If you’re concerned about these ingredients, look for a specialty manufacturer that makes organic, naturally flavored e-liquids.
What Does Steeping Mean?
Steeping refers to letting an e-liquid sit for a while to let its flavors fully develop. Some e-juices taste better after they steep. If you’d like to try it, here are the basic steps:
Here's a more comprehensive description of how to steep e-juice.
How Much Nicotine Is In a Vape Compared to a Cigarette?
That depends on how much nicotine is in your e-liquid, what type of cigarettes you used to smoke, and how heavily you smoked.
Here’s a basic guideline to let you know how much nicotine you should start with. Most e-liquids come in levels from 0mg to 18mg nicotine.

How Much Nicotine Is In a Vape Compared to a Cigarette?
That depends on how much nicotine is in your e-liquid, what type of cigarettes you used to smoke, and how heavily you smoked.
Here’s a basic guideline to let you know how much nicotine you should start with. Most e-liquids come in levels from 0mg to 18mg nicotine.
- If you were a light smoker of low-nicotine cigarettes, start with 3mg.
- If you smoked more frequently, start with 6 mg.
- If you were a regular smoker of medium or full-flavor cigarettes, start with 12 mg.
- Heavy smokers of full-flavor cigarettes should start with 16mg or 18mg.
