Flavoring/juice storage solutions?

[CurlyxCracker]

I've been recycling plastic baby formula containers to store my flavoring, not ideal. I'm now on my third one. It's not a very good way to stay organized and I'd like to keep it all in one place. Currently when I mix I have to get all three containers out along with my vape box (tackle box, has all my rebuilding stuff, a bunch of mixed juice, random vape gear, syringes, nic/pg/vg) Looking for suggestions/what others are doing for their flavoring so it's easily accessible and a bit more organized. Pictures would be a plus!

I had to look up what a baby formula container was. I was thinking I'd get a picture of a mom's upper half.

Haha, not nearly as exciting as what the actually are....

Cleaned and without label.

Do you want something that can moved around easily? This is similar to what I use, and when it's not in use, I roll it into a closet.

I'll load pictures soon.

The cart is on wheels, so I can move it around anywhere. The flavors to the left are in some type of jewelry organizer. It's on a hanger, and I store both in a closet when not in use. The cart is great. It has a place for everything. It's a big disheveled currently. I like the set up since it's easy to move and I can reach everything very easily.

Your cart and hanger would be perfect, if only I had a closet to use. My mom is really sensitive to the aromas of my flavorings, she can't even open the cabinet I use. Some day .....

I'm lucky. The other half notices nothing. I do have to put the fuzzy children away though when mixing.

I like your set up! It doesn't have to move regularly. Although I like both ideas! I'm currently working on converting my an area in my basement for mixing and building, but I definitely would be mixing upstairs as well so the hanger thing might be a good option for me. Thanks for sharing @RocketPuppy!

Wow PJpup. You have , what is it they call that. ...um. organizational ability. Nice setup.

It's the only thing in my house that is organized. No joke.

The perfect storage place for your beloved E-Liquid?

A small dorm room sized fridge.

And they also do wonders for storing beer

And no, I am not so well of that I went out to buy one for this purpose.

I put two kids through college and I get dibs on the leftovers

It might be a pain to move fridge around, even a small one. I'd stay away from putting flavor concentrates in the fridge. For other endeavors...they're great.

Not to argue, just to learn.

Why would you not put concentrates in a fridge?

If a refrigerated environment is good enough for storing food and BEER! why is it not good enough for E-Liquid and all of the components?

What the heck is wrong with you?

Are you a freaking communist or even worse an ECF mod?




Sorry Dude!

Just having a bit of fun with you

But seriously, why don't you think it is a good idea?

I really want to know!

Will refrigerating cause problems,just got my orders of flavors in today and none of the bottles say how to store them?

Thanks folks.........

Definitely not an ecf mod...on their naughty list.

Refrigerating flavor concentrates

• speeds up the natural separation of the flavor from the liquid base
• allows unwanted condensation to form
• temperature fluctuations lessen the shelf life (unless you're going to mix in the fridge)

To extend the shelf life

• make sure lids are on securely
• keep in a cool, dark place away from heat, moisture (like a fridge), and sunlight

If you're keeping them in the kitchen, avoid cupboards near the stove, dishwasher, fridge, or even shelves by windows...which means the kitchen isn't the best place to store them. You want to minimize temperature variations.

If you keep them in an ideal location, they should last 2 years to indefinitely. After awhile, they will lose flavor, but they don't go bad.

Oils are the exception. These can and should be refrigerated. Bacteria seems to grow on oils in room-temperature air. However, they should not be stored in a freezer.

RP beat me to it! And a bit more in depth

See, that's why I hang around you folks. I gets edjumakated betters.

Lol, you hit all the points down to bacteria on the oils! All I can add is "What RP said!".
