SHORTFILL FAQs
Shortfills are bottles of nicotine-free e-liquid that are not filled to capacity, leaving space for vapers to add a nicotine shot if desired. Typically, shortfills come in larger bottles (usually 50ml or 100ml of e-liquid in a 60ml or 120ml bottle, for example) to allow space for nicotine to be added.
Determine the desired nicotine strength for your final e-liquid mix.
Purchase an appropriate nicotine shot based on your desired strength.
Open the shortfill bottle and the nicotine shot.
Pour the nicotine shot into the shortfill bottle.
Close the shortfill bottle and shake vigorously for about a minute to ensure thorough mixing.
Your e-liquid is now ready to use.
Shortfills were created to comply with regulations such as the TPD in the EU, which limits the size of nicotine-containing e-liquid bottles to 10ml. By offering nicotine-free e-liquid in larger quantities and separate nicotine shots, manufacturers provide a cost-effective and flexible solution for consumers.
Absolutely! Shortfills are designed to be versatile. They can be enjoyed as nicotine-free options, giving vapers the choice of whether to add nicotine or not based on personal preference.
The strength of the nicotine shot needed depends on your desired final nicotine concentration. Most nicotine shots are sold in 18mg or 20mg strengths. Adding one 18mg shot to a 50ml shortfill will generally yield a 3mg nicotine strength in the final 60ml mixture. Adjust according to your needs and the size of the shortfill.
Shortfills are designed to maintain the original flavor profile of the e-liquid. When mixed correctly with a nicotine shot, there should be minimal to no impact on the flavor. Ensure to shake the mixture well to achieve a consistent flavor.
Yes, shortfills can be more cost-effective than buying multiple bottles of smaller-sized, nicotine-inclusive e-liquid. They provide a larger quantity of e-liquid at a lower price point, especially when purchasing higher strength nicotine shots to dilute into the larger volume.
While you can mix different e-liquid flavors in shortfills, it is essential to consider how the flavors might combine. Some vapers enjoy experimenting with flavors, creating custom blends. However, ensure that the total volume does not exceed the bottle’s capacity once the nicotine shot is added.
After adding a nicotine shot and shaking the mixture well, it’s advisable to let it steep for a short period, anywhere from a few hours to a day, to ensure the flavors and nicotine fully meld. However, you can vape it immediately if you prefer.
The VG/PG ratio of the e-liquid in a shortfill bottle is predetermined. However, you can slightly alter this ratio by choosing a nicotine shot with a different VG/PG ratio than the e-liquid. Be mindful that this could also affect the e-liquid’s thickness and flavor.
Yes, adding too much nicotine can exceed your desired strength and potentially ruin the flavor or cause harshness when vaping. Always calculate the correct amount of nicotine to add based on the size of the shortfill and your desired final nicotine concentration.
Shortfills and nicotine shots should be stored in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat, which can degrade the e-liquid. Make sure the caps are tightly sealed to prevent leaks and evaporation.
Yes, shortfills can be used in most vaping devices. However, the viscosity of your e-liquid (which depends on its VG/PG ratio) might make it more suitable for certain types of devices. High VG e-liquids are thicker and better suited for sub-ohm devices, while higher PG e-liquids are thinner and work well in pod systems or mouth-to-lung (MTL) devices.
Yes, some brands offer flavored nicotine shots designed to add not only nicotine but also a flavor boost to your shortfill e-liquid. This can be a great way to customize or enhance the flavor profile of your vape juice.
Shortfill bottles commonly come in 60ml or larger sizes with the actual e-liquid volume being less than the bottle size (e.g., 50ml of e-liquid in a 60ml bottle) to leave space for a nicotine shot.
