Apple Peach Bar Series 100ml at a Glance

Apple Peach 100ml Shortfill E-Liquid by Bar Series is a fruit-flavoured vape juice in the biggest bottle size most UK shops carry. It costs £12.95 a bottle, and a 2 for £20 multibuy brings that down to £10 per bottle when you buy a pair. It sits within our shortfill e-liquids, which means the 100ml of flavoured liquid is nicotine-free as supplied and the buyer decides whether to add any.

The flavour is exactly what the name promises. Apple and peach are the only two fruits in the title and the only two tags on the listing, so there is no ice, no cream and no sweet-shop candy layer to work out. For anyone who has grown weary of flavour names that read like a cocktail menu, that plainness is a large part of the appeal. It is a tank liquid built around two familiar orchard fruits and very little else.

Bar Series is a brand we stock in more than one format, with nicotine salt bottles at 10mg and 20mg sitting alongside the 0mg shortfills, and the whole line lives on the Bar Series brand page. The 100ml bottles are the value end of that range: a lot of liquid for the money, with the nicotine decision left to you rather than fixed in advance.

This page runs through everything a buyer is likely to want to know before ordering:

• how a shortfill bottle is meant to be used, and why the bottle is bigger than the liquid inside it;
• what apple and peach taste like together, and what to expect from the vape;
• the price per millilitre and how the multibuy changes the sums;
• how nicotine shots work and what strength you end up with;
• which devices suit the liquid, plus troubleshooting, storage and delivery.

Everything on this site is strictly for adults aged 18 or over. If you do not already use nicotine, there is no reason to start.

How a 100ml Shortfill Bottle Works

Pick up a shortfill and the first thing you notice is the empty space at the top of the bottle. That gap is deliberate. UK rules cap nicotine-containing e-liquid at 10ml per bottle, but a liquid with no nicotine in it is not held to that limit, so makers fill a large bottle with 100ml of flavoured base and leave headroom for nicotine shots. Bottles of this type are commonly supplied in a 120ml size, enough for two shots, though you should always check the label on the bottle that arrives.

The headroom explains the word itself: the bottle is filled short of its full capacity. If you want nicotine, you buy separate 10ml shots, tip them in, replace the nozzle and shake. If you do not, you simply vape the liquid as supplied at 0mg. Either way the flavour work has already been done in the base, which is why a shot of nicotine does not need to change what the liquid tastes like in any dramatic way.

Why does the format exist at all? Mostly for value and choice. One large bottle costs less per millilitre than a stack of small ones, you decide the strength, and you can adjust it from one batch to the next. Plenty of vapers who started on 10ml bottles move across to shortfills once they know which flavours they enjoy and how much liquid they get through in a week.

A word about the bottle itself. Shortfills are typically sold in soft plastic bottles with a narrow nozzle, a tamper-evident ring and a child-resistant cap. The nozzle is the same slim type used on 10ml bottles, so it fits the fill ports of most refillable tanks and pods. If your device has an especially small port, go slowly and keep a tissue to hand.

One thing this page cannot tell you is the VG to PG ratio of the bottle, because that is printed on the label rather than in our listing. Check it when the bottle arrives. The ratio affects how thick the liquid is and which devices it suits, and we come back to that in the section on matching liquid to hardware.

The Apple and Peach Flavour Profile

Start with the apple, because it usually leads. In a fruit liquid the apple note tends to arrive first on the inhale as something crisp and faintly tart, closer to the skin of the fruit than to the sweet flesh. It gives the vape its brightness and stops a fruit blend from feeling heavy or syrupy.

Peach does most of the sweetening. Where apple is sharp, peach is round, soft and a little perfumed, with the juicy, slightly fuzzy quality that anyone who has bitten into a ripe one will recognise. On the exhale it generally hangs around longer than the apple does, leaving a gentle sweetness on the tongue after each pull.

Put together, the pairing should read as a balanced orchard blend rather than a sharp one or a sugary one. Bar Series does not publish a sweetness rating for this flavour, so treat all of this as a description of the flavour family and not a precise recipe. Taste is personal, and what one person calls juicy another calls sweet.

What it is not matters too. Another Bar Series shortfill, Cola Ice, carries the word ice in its name and in its tags, whereas Apple Peach is tagged only with apple and peach. You should not expect a deliberate cooling effect or a menthol edge. If a chilled finish is what you are after, pick a flavour that names the ice outright.

Your device will shape the result as much as the recipe does. A hotter setting tends to push the sweetness forward and can flatten the finer fruit notes, while a cooler, lower-power vape keeps the apple's crispness intact and lets the peach arrive more gently. If the first tank or two tastes a touch muted, give the coil time to settle in before you judge the flavour, a point we return to in the troubleshooting section.

Who This Shortfill Suits and Who It Does Not

A shortfill suits some vapers and frustrates others, so it helps to be honest about which camp you fall into.

It tends to suit adults who already vape with a refillable tank or a refillable pod and who get through enough liquid that buying 10ml bottles feels wasteful. Someone using around three millilitres a day will work through a 100ml bottle in a little over a month. It also suits people who enjoy straightforward fruit flavours, who want to choose their own nicotine strength or skip nicotine altogether, and who like to buy in bulk and keep a spare bottle in the cupboard.

If you are new to refilling, the usual route is a starter device plus a bottle like this one. Our vape kits cover everything from compact pod systems to larger tank setups, and the refillable ones can be filled straight from a shortfill nozzle.

It is a poor fit in a few situations. A shortfill is useless without a refillable device, so if you own a closed-pod system that only takes sealed cartridges, you need the matching cartridges instead, such as prefilled vape pods. If you want zero upkeep, with no filling, no spills and no coil changes, a sealed pod is simpler. And if you want a firm nicotine hit from a very small pod device, a nicotine salt liquid is generally the better match, because shortfill shots use freebase nicotine that is normally vaped at lower strengths in larger tanks.

Finally, taste. If your preference runs to tobacco, menthol or dessert flavours, this is not your bottle in any format. Apple Peach is a light, fruity, uncomplicated profile, and it earns its place only for people who actually enjoy that.

Price per Millilitre and the Multibuy Maths

The arithmetic is simple, so here it is. At £12.95 for 100ml, Apple Peach comes to 12.95p per millilitre. Under the 2 for £20 multibuy each bottle effectively costs £10, which is 10p per millilitre, and a pair saves £5.90 compared with buying the two at full price. That is 200ml of liquid for £20.

To put that in context, our 5 for £10 e-liquids work out at £2 for each 10ml bottle, or 20p per millilitre. Those small bottles contain nicotine and are ready to vape the moment you open them, so you are paying for convenience, but the gap is still a clear one: the shortfill deal costs half as much per millilitre.

The honest caveat is that nicotine shots are an extra. If you want a 3mg liquid you will buy two 10ml shots on top, and those carry their own price. Even so, the total cost per millilitre usually stays well below the small-bottle route, and you control the strength to the milligram instead of choosing from a handful of fixed options.

How long a bottle lasts depends entirely on how you vape. As a rough guide, at two millilitres a day 100ml covers about fifty days, at three millilitres about thirty-three, and at five millilitres about twenty. Larger sub-ohm tanks use liquid considerably faster than small mouth-to-lung pods, so the same bottle can last a month for one person and a fortnight for another.

Other shortfills in the shop carry their own multibuys, and the current offers across the whole store are collected on the vape deals page. It is worth a glance before you check out, particularly if you are also adding coils or a second flavour to the basket.

Adding Nicotine Shots: Strength and Sums

Apple Peach arrives at 0mg, and adding nicotine is entirely optional. If you do want it, the sums are easy once you know the volumes. Please remember that nicotine is addictive, which is why it should only ever be added by an adult who already uses it.

Nicotine shots are normally sold in 10ml bottles at up to 20mg/ml, the UK ceiling, and 18mg is a common choice. Pour two 18mg shots into a 100ml shortfill and you have 120ml at 3mg/ml, because 360mg of nicotine is spread through 120ml. A single 18mg shot gives 180mg across 110ml, which is about 1.6mg/ml. Two 20mg shots come to roughly 3.3mg/ml. The bottle needs the spare capacity for all of this, so read the label for its total volume before you buy any shots.

Which strength should you pick? There is no single answer, but a few starting points are widely used. Flavour-only vapers stay at 0mg. Tank users who like a gentle throat feel often settle around 3mg. Anything stronger than that usually means decanting some liquid first to make space, or switching to a ready-made option. For small pod devices that suit a firmer nicotine hit, nicotine salt e-liquids are built for the job and come in 10mg and 20mg strengths with no mixing required.

It helps to remember that shots change the liquid slightly. Two shots add 20ml to the bottle, which dilutes the flavour by about a sixth, and because shots can be a 50/50 blend or pure VG they may nudge the thickness up or down a little. Neither effect is dramatic, but if the flavour tastes a shade quieter after mixing, that is the reason.

Mixing itself is straightforward. Unscrew the nozzle, squeeze each shot in, refit the nozzle and shake firmly for around thirty seconds. Let the bottle rest for a few hours if you can, and give it another shake before the first fill. Label any bottle once nicotine is in it, and never leave it where someone else might mistake it for a nicotine-free one.

Filling the Tank and First Use Step by Step

A few minutes of preparation saves a great deal of mess later. Here is the routine most experienced vapers follow with a fresh bottle.

• Shake the bottle. The ingredients can settle in storage, so a quick shake evens things out before you open it.
• Add shots if you want them. Remove the nozzle, squeeze in the nicotine, refit it and shake again.
• Open your tank or pod. Most devices have a top-fill port or a base that slides open. Locate the fill port and keep clear of the central airflow tube.
• Fill slowly. Rest the nozzle against the side of the port so the liquid runs down the wall rather than flooding the centre. Stop at the maximum line and never fill to the brim.
• Let the coil soak. A new or freshly changed coil needs several minutes to absorb liquid fully. Skipping this step is the most common cause of a burnt first pull.
• Start gently. Use the lower end of the wattage range printed on your coil for the first few pulls, then increase it if you would like a warmer vape.

UK rules cap tank and pod capacity at 2ml, which is why refilling becomes part of the daily routine for tank users. A shortfill nozzle keeps this tidy, and a quick wipe of the tip with a tissue between uses stops residue building up.

When your flavour starts to taste flat or scorched even with a full tank, the coil is the most likely culprit. Our range of replacement coils covers many popular tanks, and the simplest way to buy the right one is to match the code printed on the old coil. Keep a spare in the drawer, because coils tend to give up when the shops are shut.

Always keep the cap tight between fills, and never leave an open bottle within reach of children or pets.

Choosing a Device That Suits This Liquid

Device choice matters at least as much as flavour choice. Shortfills come in a range of VG to PG ratios, and the ratio is printed on the label of the bottle you receive, not on this page. Read it before you pair the liquid with a coil.

The general rule is straightforward. Thicker, higher-VG liquids are made for open sub-ohm tanks with wide airflow and larger coils, where they give a smooth, warm vape and plenty of vapour. Thinner liquids with more PG in the blend soak into smaller coils faster, which makes them a better match for mouth-to-lung tanks and refillable pods. Many coils have a recommended VG range stamped on the side. Stay inside it and you avoid most problems before they start.

Refillable pods deserve a specific mention. Systems designed around refillable cartridges can take a shortfill very well, and our refillable vape pods are the place to look for compatible cartridges. Check the maker's guidance on liquid thickness first, because some small pod coils struggle with very thick juice.

Closed systems are different. A device that takes sealed, prefilled cartridges is not intended to be refilled from a bottle, and trying to do so can damage the pod and go against the instructions that came with it. Do not open or modify sealed pods to make them fit this liquid.

Think about airflow and wattage as well. Open the airflow wider on a sub-ohm tank and the vape becomes cooler, airier and a little less sweet, which suits the crisp side of the apple. Close it down and the same liquid turns warmer and more concentrated, bringing the peach forward. It is worth experimenting for a few tanks before you settle on a favourite setup.

Troubleshooting Weak Flavour, Leaks and Gurgling

Most complaints about a new bottle turn out to be complaints about the coil. The good news is that nearly every common fault has a quick fix.

• Burnt or acrid taste. Usually a dry coil or one that has reached the end of its life. Check there is liquid in the tank, let a fresh coil soak properly, and lower the wattage. If the taste persists, change the coil.
• Weak or muted flavour. Often down to vaper's tongue, a temporary dulling of taste after a long run on one flavour. Switching flavours for a day or sipping water can reset it. A worn coil produces the same symptom.
• Gurgling. Caused by condensation or an over-filled tank. Blow gently back through the mouthpiece, wipe the drip tip, and fill to a lower line next time.
• Leaking from the tank. Check every seal is seated and the tank is not over-filled. Temperature and pressure changes can push liquid out, so avoid carrying a full tank on a flight or leaving it in a hot car.
• Sticky bottle. Wipe the nozzle after each fill. Liquid dries into a film that attracts dust and makes the cap hard to grip.

If you have just mixed in nicotine and the liquid seems uneven, shake it harder and leave it to rest for a day. Some vapers like to let a freshly mixed bottle sit for twenty-four hours so the flavours settle and the shots blend completely, although it is a preference and not a requirement.

If something looks wrong with the bottle itself, such as a damaged seal, a cracked cap or a label that does not match your order, keep the packaging and get in touch through our contact page with your order number and a photo. That gives the team what it needs to sort the problem quickly.

Storing the Bottle and Keeping It Fresh

Looking after e-liquid is simple, but a few habits make a real difference to how it tastes a few months on.

Light, heat and air are the three enemies. Keep the bottle somewhere cool and dark, such as a cupboard or drawer, rather than on a windowsill, a radiator or a car dashboard. Direct sunlight and high temperatures can darken the liquid over time and dull the fruit notes. Keep the cap on firmly and store the bottle upright so the nozzle does not sit in a pool of liquid.

Check the label for a best-before date and an ingredients list. A small shift to a deeper colour is normal for some fruit mixes, particularly after nicotine has been added, but a sharp change in smell or taste is the signal to stop using a bottle and replace it. If you are unsure, do not use it.

Safety matters here. Even at 0mg, e-liquid should be kept out of sight and reach of children and pets. Once you have added nicotine, that rule becomes absolutely firm, because nicotine is dangerous if swallowed or spilled on the skin. Keep the liquid in its original bottle, never decant it into drinks containers or anything unlabelled, and wipe spills away straight away.

Travelling needs a little thought too. Pressure changes can push liquid out of a bottle with a large air gap, so carry it upright inside a sealed bag, ideally in a case that can take the odd knock. If you plan to mix in nicotine, do it at home rather than on the move, and carry the shots in their own bottles until you are ready.

Pros, Cons and Other Bar Series Flavours

No e-liquid suits everyone, so here is a plain account of what this bottle does well and where it falls short. Weigh the two lists against how you actually vape, because a point that is a drawback for one buyer is a non-issue for the next.

In its favour

• A generous 100ml of liquid at 12.95p per millilitre, or 10p with the multibuy.
• Nicotine-free as supplied, with a free choice of strength afterwards.
• A simple two-fruit flavour with no ice or dessert layer in the way.
• A standard nozzle that suits most tank and pod fill ports.

Against it

• It needs a refillable device, so it is no use in sealed-pod systems.
• Nicotine shots are an extra purchase and an extra step.
• A 100ml bottle is a commitment if you are not sure you will like the flavour.
• There is no cooling option, which matters to anyone who prefers ice.
• The VG to PG ratio is only given on the label, so you have to check it against your coil.

If you like the sound of the format but fancy a different taste, the same 100ml shortfill line includes Cola Ice, Sweet Strawberry and Strawberry Raspberry Cherry, each at £12.95 with the same 2 for £20 offer. Pairing two different flavours to take advantage of the multibuy is a sensible way to add variety without paying full price for either.

Whichever way you go, remember that flavour is the whole point of this category. A bottle you enjoy vaping is better value than a cheaper one that sits half used in a drawer, so choose the taste first and the price second.

Delivery, Age Checks and Customer Help

Ordering from us is quick, but age verification comes first. Every order is for adults aged 18 or over, and the process is explained on our age verification page. You may be asked to confirm your age at checkout, and a courier can ask for proof on delivery, so keep photo ID to hand.

UK delivery is free on orders over £20. A single bottle at £12.95 falls short of that, while a pair under the 2 for £20 deal sits right at the threshold, so look at your basket total before you pay and add a small item such as a spare coil if it asks for a little more. Orders placed before 4pm are dispatched on the same working day, and the couriers, timings and service levels are set out in full on our shipping information page.

Every product we sell is 100% genuine stock, and a Bar Series bottle should arrive sealed. When the parcel lands, check the seal and the label, and hold on to the outer packaging until you have confirmed that everything is as expected. If something is damaged, missing or not as described, tell us promptly and include your order number, so the team can look into it.

The conditions for returns and faulty goods are set out in our policies. Because e-liquid is a consumable product, the practical advice is to check each bottle on arrival and raise any concern straight away rather than after opening and using it.

One last practical tip. If you are buying a bottle for the first time and have no refillable device yet, order the device and the liquid together so that you are not left waiting for either. A compatible kit, a spare coil and a bottle of Apple Peach will see you through your first few weeks of refilling comfortably.
