The short answer

Nixer longfill vape juice is a UK-made concentrated flavour formula sold in a 60ml bottle containing 10ml of high-strength flavour concentrate plus 50ml of empty mixing space. Customers add their own 18mg nicotine shots plus VG base liquid to the empty space to create finished e-liquid at their preferred nicotine strength. Five-step mixing process takes about 5 minutes: check bottle, add nic shots based on target strength (1 shot for 3mg, 2 for 6mg, 3 for 9mg), fill remaining space with VG base leaving 2-3ml air gap, shake vigorously 2-3 minutes, test plus label. Always yields 60ml of finished e-liquid regardless of strength chosen. Most fruit Nixer flavours shake-and-vape ready immediately. Dessert profiles like Salted Caramel Macchiato benefit from 1-2 weeks steeping in dark cupboard. Nixer concentrates use the same flavour quality as premium pre-mixed e-liquids but at significantly lower per-ml cost (GBP 0.17-0.20 versus GBP 0.42 for premium shortfills – 50-60% saving). UK TPD 2016 compliant. Manufactured in UK by Dispergo Vaping. Available across fruit, dessert, menthol plus tobacco profiles.

The five core concepts

Five concepts cover everything you need to understand about Nixer longfill format. Once these are clear the rest follows naturally.

L

Longfill

Concentrated flavour in larger bottle with empty space for customer-added components. 10ml flavour plus 50ml mixing space.

C

Concentrate

High-strength flavour formulation. The 10ml concentrate flavours the full 60ml once diluted with nic shots plus base.

N

Nic shot

10ml bottle of 18mg nicotine in VG/PG base. UK TPD standard. Number added determines final strength.

V

VG base

Pharmaceutical-grade vegetable glycerine that fills remaining space. Provides vapour clouds plus smooth throat hit.

S

Steeping

Letting mixed e-liquid develop over time. Most fruits ready immediately. Desserts benefit from 1-2 weeks.

How the concepts fit together.

  • Longfill describes the bottle format – concentrate plus mixing space in same bottle.
  • Concentrate is the high-strength flavour formula that gets diluted to make finished e-liquid.
  • Nic shot is the standardised UK TPD nicotine bottle that customers add for strength.
  • VG base is the diluent that fills remaining space plus provides vapour characteristics.
  • Steeping is the optional development time some flavours need for full character.

What is in a Nixer longfill bottle

60ml
total bottle
Bottle capacity

Standard UK longfill bottle size accommodating concentrate plus mixing space. 120ml bottles also available with proportional 20ml concentrate.

10ml
concentrate
Pre-filled flavour concentrate

High-strength flavour formulation at the bottom of the bottle. Sufficient to flavour the full 60ml once diluted with nic shots plus base.

50ml
mixing space
Empty space for components

Empty space above concentrate for customer-added nic shots plus VG base liquid. Combination of nic shots plus VG always totals 50ml.

60ml
finished
Final mixed e-liquid

After mixing the bottle contains 60ml of ready-to-vape e-liquid at chosen nicotine strength (0mg, 3mg, 6mg, 9mg or up to 18mg with all 5 nic shots).

Why the 60ml/10ml split.

  • UK TPD 2016 caps pre-mixed nicotine bottles at 10ml and 20mg/ml.
  • Longfill format separates flavour concentrate (no nicotine) from nicotine shots.
  • 10ml concentrate sufficient to flavour 60ml once diluted appropriately.
  • 50ml mixing space accommodates up to 5 nic shots (50ml total).
  • Maximum legal finished strength: 18mg/ml using all 5 shots plus zero VG.
  • Most users mix at 3-6mg using 1-2 shots plus VG to fill remainder.

How Nixer longfills work: the mixing process

Five-step process from opening the bottle to first vape. Total active time around 5 minutes for most users.

1

Check the bottle

Open the 60ml Nixer bottle plus confirm 10ml concentrate is at the bottom plus 50ml of empty space remains. Note flavour name plus mix-date for labelling later.

2

Add nic shots

Add 18mg nicotine shots based on target strength: 1 shot for 3mg, 2 for 6mg, 3 for 9mg. Pour slowly to avoid spillage plus air bubbles. Wear disposable gloves.

3

Fill with VG base

Top up the remaining space with pharmaceutical-grade VG base liquid. Leave 2-3ml air gap at the top for proper shaking. VG provides vapour clouds plus smooth throat hit.

4

Shake thoroughly

Secure cap tightly plus shake vigorously for 2-3 minutes using up-and-down motions. Continue until liquid is completely uniform with no streaks or visible separation.

5

Test plus label

Sample a small amount immediately. Most fruit flavours ready straight away. Label bottle with mix date, flavour plus strength. Steep desserts 1-2 weeks for full flavour.

Mixing technique tips.

  • Check the bottle: all Nixer longfills follow the same 60ml/10ml format so technique is consistent.
  • Nicotine shots: count aloud before adding to avoid mistakes. UK TPD shots are 18mg/10ml standard.
  • VG base: use only pharmaceutical-grade VG. Pour slowly as VG is thick. Leave 2-3ml air gap.
  • Shaking: set timer for full 2-3 minutes. Up-down motions not side-to-side. Continue until uniform.
  • Testing: wait 30 minutes after mixing for initial settling before judging flavour.

Format comparison

How Nixer longfills compare to other major UK vape e-liquid formats. Each serves different priorities.

Longfill (Nixer)

Concentrate plus mixing

Concentrated 10ml flavour in larger 60ml bottle. Customer adds nic shots plus VG base. Most customisable plus cost-effective format. 5-minute mixing per bottle.

Mixing 5 minutes
Per ml GBP 0.17-0.20
Customisation High
Shortfill

Pre-mixed plus nic shot

Pre-mixed 50ml nicotine-free e-liquid in 60ml bottle. Customer adds 1 nic shot to make 60ml at single strength. Faster to mix but more expensive plus less customisable.

Mixing 1-2 minutes
Per ml GBP 0.28-0.42
Customisation Low
Nic salts

Pre-mixed 10ml bottles

Pre-mixed nicotine salt e-liquid in 10ml bottles at fixed strengths (typically 10mg or 20mg). No mixing required. Best for pod systems plus MTL devices. Highest per-ml cost.

Mixing None
Per ml GBP 0.30-0.50
Customisation None
Disposables (banned June 2025)

Single-use complete units

Pre-charged single-use vape device with built-in e-liquid plus battery. Banned in UK from June 2025 due to environmental concerns. Refillable lookalikes plus rechargeable disposables remain available.

Smart Nixer mixing vs common errors

What works for Nixer mixing
vs what causes problems

Specific approaches give consistent perfect mixes. Others cause the predictable beginner mistakes. Here is the side by side.

Works

Reliable mixing

  • Use pharmaceutical-grade VG base only matches Nixer concentrate quality plus ensures safe mixing.
  • Shake for full 2-3 minutes with timer proper integration is non-negotiable for flavour quality.
  • Wait 30 minutes after mixing before judging initial settling improves taste assessment significantly.
  • Label every bottle with date plus strength tracks freshness plus avoids confusion across multiple bottles.
  • Match nic shot count exactly to target strength 1 for 3mg, 2 for 6mg, 3 for 9mg. Count aloud.
  • Steep dessert flavours 1-2 weeks before judgment Salted Caramel Macchiato plus similar profiles need development time.
Causes issues

Common mistakes

  • Using PG-only base or water instead of VG wrong base ruins flavour, vapour production plus throat feel.
  • Skipping the 2-3 minute shake duration inadequate mixing causes most beginner flavour problems.
  • Adding too many nic shots without checking maths exceeds UK TPD 20mg/ml limit plus creates harsh throat hit.
  • Tasting dessert flavours immediately plus judging profiles like Salted Caramel Macchiato need 1-2 weeks to develop.
  • Filling completely to brim with no air gap prevents proper mixing during shake step.
  • Mixing more than you will use within shelf life 6-12 month finished e-liquid window means no over-mixing.

Frequently asked

Nixer longfill questions

What is Nixer longfill vape juice?
Nixer longfill vape juice is a UK-made concentrated flavour formula sold in a 60ml bottle containing 10ml of high-strength flavour concentrate plus 50ml of empty mixing space. Customers add their own 18mg nicotine shots plus VG base liquid to the empty space to create finished e-liquid at their preferred nicotine strength. Nixer concentrates use the same flavour quality as premium pre-mixed e-liquids but at significantly lower per-ml cost. UK TPD 2016 compliant. Manufactured by Dispergo Vaping. Available across fruit, dessert, menthol plus tobacco profiles.
How does a Nixer longfill work?
Five-step mixing process. Step 1: open the 60ml bottle plus confirm 10ml concentrate is at the bottom plus 50ml mixing space remains. Step 2: add 18mg nicotine shots based on target strength (1 shot for 3mg, 2 for 6mg, 3 for 9mg). Step 3: top up the remaining space with VG base liquid leaving 2-3ml air gap for shaking. Step 4: shake vigorously for 2-3 minutes until liquid is uniform with no streaks or separation. Step 5: test small amount immediately. Most fruit flavours shake-and-vape ready. Some desserts benefit from 1-2 weeks steeping in dark cupboard.
Why is the longfill format used for Nixer?
Three core reasons. UK TPD 2016 caps pre-mixed nicotine bottles at 10ml and 20mg/ml so longfills separate flavour concentrate (no nicotine) from nicotine shots (small bottles). This keeps Nixer compliant while allowing 60ml finished e-liquid volumes. Cost efficiency: longfill format saves manufacturing labour, packaging plus distribution costs, savings passed to customers as 50-60% lower per-ml pricing than premium shortfills. Customisation: customers choose nicotine strength at mixing time rather than buying specific strength bottles, eliminating wasted spend on wrong strengths.
Is Nixer longfill the same as a shortfill?
No. Shortfills are pre-mixed nicotine-free e-liquid in larger bottles (typically 50ml in 60ml bottle) where customers add small nic shot to make finished e-liquid. Longfills (like Nixer) are concentrated flavour in 10ml stored in larger bottle (60ml) where customers add nic shots PLUS additional VG/PG base. Differences: longfills cheaper per-ml since less liquid sold, longfills more customisable (you choose VG/PG ratio plus strength), shortfills faster to mix (just add nic shot). Both formats popular but serve different priorities.
How much e-liquid does a Nixer longfill make?
Always 60ml of finished e-liquid regardless of nicotine strength. The 60ml bottle accommodates 10ml concentrate plus 50ml of mixing components (nic shots plus VG base). Strength options: 0mg uses no nic shots (50ml VG), 3mg uses 1x18mg shot (40ml VG), 6mg uses 2x18mg shots (30ml VG), 9mg uses 3x18mg shots (20ml VG). Higher strengths replace VG with more nic shots. Finished volume always 60ml. Cost works out around GBP 0.20 per ml at standard pricing or GBP 0.17 per ml with multi-buy deals.
Do I need special equipment for Nixer longfills?
Not initially. Basic supplies cover most users: the Nixer longfill itself, 18mg nicotine shots plus pharmaceutical VG base. Optional extras: 10ml syringes for precision (GBP 5-10 set), labels plus marker for tracking, paper towels for cleanup, disposable gloves for nic shot handling. Total starter kit including supplies runs GBP 30-35. Advanced equipment like digital scales (GBP 15-25) plus magnetic stirrers (GBP 25-40) become useful for regular mixers but unnecessary for casual use. Most beginners successfully mix using just the bottle plus careful pouring.
