Electronic cigarettes are an incredible innovation enjoyed by various individuals every day. E-liquid, also referred to as e-juice remains an essential aspect of the ultimate experience! In this post, we will be giving you lots of tips that will help maximize your E-liquid experience, making your electronic cigarette experience as pleasurable as you can always imagine.

What is E-Liquid?

Before you start enjoying your e-cig, let us first understand what e-liquid is as well as its importance. E-liquid is the fluid used in fueling the electronic cigarette.  Without the e-liquid, all you are left with is a flavorless e-cig experience!  The exhaled vapor is created by the e-juice.

How well you enjoy your e-cig largely depends on the flavor of your e-liquid. You can select from pre-mixed blends or blend your own custom flavor depending on how you like it. It’s all a matter of choice. The flavor can always be changed to suit your taste.

Refill with care

Try as much as possible to be careful when refilling your e-liquid. Take your time, and ensure that it doesn’t get messy. You can make available lots of napkins to wipe away the spills.

Store in a safe place

Ensure that your e-liquid is stored in a safe place at every point in time. Store the e-juice away from the reach of children and pets. It should also be stored in a cool, dark place, for example, a refrigerator or a cupboard.

Also, it will be very wrong to leave the e-liquid out in hot daylight, or in a hot car. Same thing goes for long term storage of e-liquid in plastic bottles. This isn’t advisable. Even when you buy in bulk, transfer it into a glass tinted bottle. The glass tinted bottle helps in protecting the e-juice flavor.

Buy from a reputable company

Avoid getting your e-liquid from places you are not sure of. You have no knowledge of the constituents. This is why you are often advised to purchase your e-liquid from a reputable e-juice maker.

Do not steep

Do not enhance the flavor by soaking liquid nicotine in hot water. There is a disagreement whether this works or not. However, due to safety reasons, steeping is not recommended.

Following all the above suggestions will ensure that your e-liquid is kept fresh and ready to enjoy.
