At which point does it become more than just "DIY"? Today, as I was picking up 20L each of PG and VG, I think it might

Lol, I think you're bordering on possession with intent to supply!

I like it :)

Cheers :D I'm making juice 320ml at a time... crikey! VG is hard to pump out... need a tap :/

Dark, unlabeled containers? Bottles strewn on desk? Syringes laying haphazardly around?

Your DIY looks a lot like my buddy's heroin stash...

All jokes aside, though, any plans on opening a shop? Seems like you're pretty damn confident in your juice-making ability.

You're god-damn right I'm opening a shop ;) Not too many vendors in Australia selling juice, and I have too many good recipes NOT to sell them!

(ps my desk doesn't always look like this, I was overexcited today to get my big shipment of glycols)

Well damn, thought I'd have a new vendor to order from. :( Shipping to USA must cost an arm, a leg, and a kangaroo.

Shipping for my flavours alone from TFA cost $150+!

Haha, I know the feeling! I just got a batch of about 40 flavors in across 4 vendors. I still feel like I've barely scratched the surface of what I can do with these!

Why haven't I thought of this? How hot does the water get on the "keep warm" mode?

Well, I switch it on without the bottles on it, the water sorta boils, I chuck the bottles in and put it on "keep warm" mode... stays warm for a couple hours!

Got a suggestion for your bench, hunt down a restaurant fitter (or similar) and see if you can get a second hand stainless steel bench top, it will look slick and make keeping your mix area clean a real breeze

Definitely looking at a stainless steel workplace! This isn't the place I mix my commercial stuff, just got a little excited and mixed some stuff for myself

where did you get those pumps.... I don't know why I didn't think of that before....

The pumps are great for PG, not so much VG (too thick, need bigger muscles!) Got them at the same place I order my cobalt bottles from
