Since we're all sharing our organization skills, here's mine :D

30 flavors, one more and I'll call it Vapin' Robbins. Lol

Edit: This is not where I actually mix, just where I store them.

Stealing your rubber band idea. Thanks.

Not a problem, I stole it from another DIYer here, so have at it!

Edit: the 15ml are for each flavor in 6mg Nic at an 85VG/15PG ratio, just to sample individual flavors now and again. But I have since bought 30 more 15ml to keep straight flavor in, in order to do the 100 drop test batches.

Is it necessary to have a syringe for each flavor? I just rinse alcohol through mine once or twice then distilled water a bunch of times before switching to my next flavor

I rinse after each flavor with distilled water, then between recipes with DW & vodka. YMMV.

I don't know if it's necessary, but it's what I've been doing. 1ml syringes are so cheap that it's affordable.

Looks pretty cool to me....and here's an up vote. Thanks for sharing

Like those racks...did you get them from Target or a store similar? I saw some like it on the Target website and was thinking about picking some up.

Walmart, and they were about $6 each.

Looks like the bamboo (spice?) racks from walmart, but those are three tiers and OP appears to have 5 tiers.

Edit: Found one here. I've seen one much cheaper that isn't expandable that I can't find on the website, but this gives an idea.

It's actually the 3 tiers, you're correct on them being the bamboo from Walmart. They sit in front of a mirror, so it's a trick of the camera angle.

Edit: notice the T6 mirrored in the pic.

LOL Now that you point it out, I see the "4th" tier doesn't have labels facing out. I never even noticed the T6, was too busy looking at the rack. :)

Just got my first set of flavorings. I am so excited to be making basically un-vapable garbage over the next few weeks as I figure this stuff out.

Nice setup you got there!

Is that an RDA on an itaste? Hmm, didn't know I could do that. My tobh didn't fit when I tried

I think your 10ml bottles next to each flavor is interesting. What's that for? I'm guessing you dispense the flavor into that bottle using a syringe, then use that bottle as a dropper for mixing. Sounds more convenient than my shitty pipettes

I dream of having this. I have no job though, as I am a student and currently don't have time (summer it will happen, though)

I've gone through 4-5 10ml vials of flavor from TFA. Every good recipe I see has 2-3 flavors from different places. I'm flat broke and shipping is expensive! :') I'm considering saving up ~$50 and getting a few 4oz bottles from TFA, just because buying in bulk will at least last a while.

Very nice organization. My current organization is a drawer! Don't even have syringes for each flavor haha.

Nice, thanks for sharing! My flavors are so disorganized so you've given me the inspiration to change that.

I already have one. Lol.

But I see that someone wasn't too impressed, as this has been downvoted.

Thanks for the support random asshat!

(Not you, the guy that downvoted. Unless that was you, in which case... Ah never mind)

80% of redditors should join the lawyers at the bottom of the sea. But the 20% who are stand-up folks are worth their weight in gold and custard flavors, lol.

I don't even pay attention to the voting anymore. It's why I don't vote for politicians: all meaningless muscle flexing.

Also -- aren't you concerned with light degrading flavor?

I actually cover the whole setup, but really don't need to. The area it's in is not actually used that much, and not really lit a lot

Edit: I was just being silly about the downvote. Doesn't really bother me.

Try not to take down votes personally. People have no grasp of the true purpose of the system.

Glad you're getting organized, it's a good feeling! I went through and alphabetized my library of flavors last week. Makes life much easier. I also snagged three boxes of 500 pipettes for $11 each, so I don't have to mess with syringes anymore. It's a bit wasteful, but I found myself loathing cleaning twenty syringes after a good mix session!
