DIY Juice Work Spaces
submitted almost 11 years ago by Clinic_2

I haven't seen much of this around the sub, and if it is against the rules, mods go ahead and kill the thread.

How about some pictures of your juice creation stations?

I understand most people probably have a box that everything comes out of and goes back in, so their workplace is probably rarely the same each time. That being said, I would love to see some pictures of what everyone's work area looks like while they are in the process of making juice.

Having written this, I also have no idea what the correct terminology is for the name of your juice work space. You probably noticed I called it by about five different names in the post, haha.

I setup a mix station in my closet. Temp, humidity controlled as well as air filters.

Nana Cream spotted 3 o' clock. What is the black thing holding screwdrivers and the atty with the mag strip holding your wirecutters? That thing looks like it would be awesome on my work desk and my vape desk.

Alright alright, I guess whore out my station another time. here she currently is . I just actually got hooked up with an 1125 sq/ft office space to get my business set up in! It's got 5 semi small rooms, a reception desk and a kitchen! My LLC was just cleared with my state and shipped out to me today! I can't wait for it to come in! All of this is happening so fast! Going from hobby to passion to a legit business, I seriously can't thank the reddit community enough for helping me out with initial sales so much! Without you guys I wouldn't be where I'm at now! My website is still in the works but getting closer to completion and my stocks of my base recipe flavorings is growing more and more every week! I seriously did not think I would be at this point if you asked me a month ago. Also, I finally found an awesome high risk payment processor and things are sure looking up! Thanks once again guys and after I get my office cleaned up (needs a decent but of elbow grease), I'll post pics! Also, I have the hookup of a few nice stainless steel tables. Things are really looking up and I can't wait until I get to the point of he here I am wholesaling to b&m's across the country! :D

Just curious, how were you able to afford 1125 sq/ft of office space if you still haven't got your payment processor set up? That kind of rent is at least $1200+/mo in my area. Just seems like that would be a HUGE amount of overhead for a business just getting started, so I'm trying to figure out how you are able to make that work!

Oh, and nice station! Very organized, that desk is fresh.

I am extremely lucky and have family with some very nice vacant office space. The first couple months rent will be free and my rent after that is a ridiculously good deal. I seriously lucked out on this! If you think that vape station is nice, just wait until I get my office and official lab setup. It is going to be super sexy :P

seriously, if you have the passion and the thrive to be good and successful in this industry, you should have no problem! It's been a rocky road so far, but things are finally starting to smooth out a little. I still have a long ways to go, but the light at the end of the tunnel is getting closer every day!

Awesome. Well, I'm really into flavors and cooking and creating things. Really into mixing drinks too, and thought this would be an awesome extension. I'm first just wanting to experiment with flavors so I'm still just picking what to order and stuff haven't even gotten started yet.

But if I can come up with some worthwhile flavors I definitely want to pursue it.

Do you mind if I keep in touch with you once I get a bit further down the road and send you a message?

Do you already have any of your juices for sale? I'd love to try some!

I really like the kanthal spool posts in the side of your cabinet.

I've got no real interest in trying to sell any of the muck I end up making, but how much PG and VG do you anticipate going through? Obviously buying quarts of VG/PG won't cut it at a sales level, but are you anticipate having to buy the stuff in drums?

2 points
 
by BleuXShadoWalmost 11 years ago

I still have my original gallon of pg I started out with. It's only got maybe 750ml left, but I have gone thru, idk, around 11L of VG so far. So the vg definitely goes out much quicker than the pg :P

And yes I will be buying a drum of vg at least in the near future! :D

I have a rubbermaid bin and dining room table atm. Really need a dedicated space but makes it easy to keep away from the little ones.

I'm about to cover our spare bedroom to an office/juice factory/man cave. I'll post pics once it's done! I'd love to see some pics of yalls for inspiration though!

That's almost the exact setup I had for a while. TV Stand near the garage side door. Gave up on that and moved over to a big octagon table in the middle of the garage. Still not happy with it, but it's better. Next up is shelves... Well, table saw, chop saw, router and then shelves. Have to get the SO to agree to the tools first.

What more do you need just as long as you can mix your next bottle of killa!!

Nice. What size drill did you use for the squeeze bottles, if you remember?

Mines all packed in one of my 4 shipments I got, the rest that won't fit is sprawled all over my desk.

Same! And I have close to 200 flavours now. Makes mixing days a bit of a game. I definitely need to get a rack sorted and I'm using this thread for ideas.

In a box really? Now I'm curious to see how compact the whole setup can really be as well.

I've got my stuff coming in the mail, but I figure I can hopefully fit it in a box.

A big box...

I have my gear coming in the mail and am looking forward to tinkering.

I anticipate I will be a "Kitchen Table Scientist" similar to most of this subreddit, but I would also be interested to see some of your more permanent solutions. Would also be interested in seeing some of the "Big Guys'" mixing rooms/etc.

I keep everything in a couple plastic tubs on top of the gun safe where the kids can't reach it and mix at the kitchen table after they go to bed.

Here's my office/juice factory. That drawer cart was exactly what I needed. It all fits perfectly. http://imgur.com/a/Z5ib1
