No I haven't got the wrong forum! It's not my idea but one I saw on a vid. Basically it's using an aquarium air pump to mix your diy juice before steeping. You run a pipe from the pump to your juice bottle, using a regulator so you don't blast the juice out of the bottle, and the circulating air does the mixing.
Just wondered if you guys think it's a good idea or not.
 
I'm going bad, purely because i've seen that vid too and the guy suggests using an airstone. Same vid i assume.

Shake it, shelf it, foget about it.
 
When it comes to mixing and steeping I believe go for whatever floats your boat.
I believe the whole area is mostly voodoo.
Not a lot of consensus to be had.
I am another one for keeping it simple, give it a shake and leave for a few days.
Others swear by milk frothers, dremels or whatever.
Go for it and to hell with what I or anyone else thinks.
 
I used to keep tropical fish, those damn airstones would clog up something rotten. Would I fancy cleaning one after using in a mix - not in a million years!
Why would you want the extra work and put up with the noise from the pump? Crazy idea. People have too much time on their hands sometimes.
 
I read somewhere that a bloke was strapping a fresh batch of juice to his car wheel, driving to work and then when he got there it was suitably steeped and ready for vaping. The lengths some people will go to is beyond me!

.... no officer, I really don't know why there's a bottle strapped to my wheel ... :18:

Can vouch for that. My co2 diffuser gets clogged something rotten.

Adding air into a mix is not the best for many of the concentrates or the nicotine due to oxidation, and there is seldom a filter on an airpump, so you could be adding all sorts of airborne nasties.

For mixing I you a hotplate stirrer, or for small batches a slap the 10-30ml bottle 3 pronged laboratory retort clamp inside a drill and pulse it for a few mins every couple of days.
