Thought would be a good idea to open a thread about equipment used during DIY mixing for all the peoples little nifty tricks and techniques to their mixing to talk about..
 
I'll get us started with a bit of an inquiry to the masses..

Now I'm relatively new to vaping but I love the DIY mixing side of it, aside from the financial benefits of it, I find it quite fun getting the old breaking bad lab out on the dining room table.

Now one problem I've encountered is the whole shaking the bottles side of things, as I'm only mixing for myself I tend to make a lot of small batches of either 10ml or 30ml bottles of all different flavours as I like to change it up quite often through the week. The problem I've encountered is that when I've done a batch of around say 20 bottles, by the time I've come to the end of shaking them all up, and then shaking them throughout the steeping process, my shoulder is killing me!

Now in the real world I'm an engineer and I have recently made myself a small device to shake the bottles in a linear motion, and it has been quite successful, the aeration I get from the device far surpasses what I could do myself.

I've seen a lot of DIY devices on the net, but no proper devices you could buy to shake bottles vigorously enough to achieve good aeration.

My question is, as there is this gap in the market for a device like this for the DIY mixers out there, would any one be interested in purchasing a device like this if it was available? and if so, how much would you be willing to pay for it?

I have it within my means to make up my device properly, and I'm curious as to whether it would be worth marketing as a little side project. It has only arisen as a friend of mine made the comment: 'that is f*****g brilliant, you should make a proper one and sell it, loads of people would buy that!'
 
If it costs much more than £2.99 the price of a coffee frother I don't think people will buy it as you can shake it and let it steep for free
 
Don't shake em use a milk frother. I have cut the whisk bit off the end and put some small bends in and you stir and aerate at hi-speed
 
yeah I did think of that, but I wanted something that I could put like 10 to 20 bottles in at once to save a bit of time and hassle each time you want to shake up a batch, if I used a coffee frother then you know like you have to take each lid and nozzle off, and then you have to rinse it in between each bottle so not to mix up the flavours and so on
 
I'm sure when I with a vendor he had some shaking equipment can't be sure tho it was a few years ago.

All the best with it tho if you'd go ahead..
