Poppers in the fridge

The myth “poppers in the fridge”

We’re constantly asked how to properly store Poppers at home and whether the refrigerator is the best place to keep them. To get this out of the way right away: No, the refrigerator is not the right place to store Poppers.

Storing Poppers in the fridge isn’t healthy for you or for other people, and it’s also very impractical. Poppers are chemicals. I’ve never seen anyone keep their nitro thinner, methyl alcohol, or paintbrush cleaner in the fridge next to the lettuce, vegetables, and milk. Plus, other people might mistake the poppers bottle—say, Rave Ultra Strong—for a shot of liquor like “Gaudi Max” or “Kleiner Feigling.” This could be fatal, for example, at a party. The fridge also isn’t really discreet, since your girlfriend, mom, or roommates use it too.

What is the best way to store poppers?

We are always asked how to store Poppers properly at home and whether the fridge is the best place to store Poppers. To anticipate it right away. No, the fridge is not the right place to store Poppers.

What’s the best way to store my Poppers? Poppers need to be kept in a cool, dark place. That’s why we often see them in the refrigerator. We make a distinction between new/unopened bottles and bottles that have already been opened.

You can easily store new, unopened bottles at room temperature in your closet or drawer—for example, along with your sex toys. When unopened, Poppers will last for several months at room temperature in a dark place. After production, during transport, and at both wholesale and retail levels, Poppers are also stored at room or basement temperature.

How do I store poppers bottles that have already been opened?

The situation is different for bottles that have been opened, since the Poppers substance begins to slowly degrade when exposed to the air in the room. Once opened, Poppers stored at room temperature can be used for about a month without any problems. It goes without saying that once-opened Poppers should not be stored next to a radiator or in direct sunlight. We recommend storing opened bottles in a ZIP-lock bag or a Tupperware container in a dark place, such as a closet or drawer. The best place, however, is the basement. It’s dark and cool there, but not too cool (about 12 to 15 degrees). In a ZIP bag or Tupperware container, your opened Poppers will stay fresh for about a month in the basement or at room temperature.

If you store your Poppers in a place that’s too cold (e.g., in the refrigerator or freezer), you’ll need to plan their use carefully. Poppers only work really well at room temperature. This is a clear argument against storing them in the refrigerator.
