Hey everybody. Forgive me for skipping an introduction thread, I feel as though you get to know people better through interaction rather than listening to what they have to say about themselves.
Anyways, on to the topic of discussion. If you are getting into the retail end of vaping what do you think is the most efficient way to mix your juice?
The first option that comes to mind is pre-mixing the nicotine with the PG/VG. Thus, you'd have a large bottle of 0mg mix, 6mg, 12mg, etc. Then, when you have an order you would measure and add the flavor to the bottle followed by the mix. The three problems with this are that 1) your nicotine gets diluted so you would have to mix each bottle of PG/VG/nicotine at a higher level to account for the flavor, 2) it would give your juices no time to steep, and 3) it's a lot of foot work.
The second option is having large pre-mixed bottles of each flavor and nicotine level. For example, you'd have a large bottle of Flavor One with 0mg nicotine, another bottle with Flavor One and 6mg, etc. Upon receiving an order you would fill the bottle and deliver. This seems like a good idea because it gives your juice time to steep and ultimately eliminates a little bit of time that the first method would take.
The third option would be to have all your flavors mixed at 0mg and one large container of nicotine. Upon receiving an order you would add the flavor/PG/VG mix in with the appropriate amount of nicotine to be diluted to the specific level. This seems like the easiest route, but I'm still thinking it over and may not actually work, as having different levels of nicotine would need different amounts of fluid, some diluting the flavor mix more than others and creating huge inconsistencies in your juices.
If you're currently mixing your own and selling it, how do you go about it? If you're not doing so, maybe you still have some insight on the best way to do it and would like to share. Lastly, is there a solution to the dilemma that is option three?
