Starting a Juice Company
submitted over 10 years ago by FookinSarcasm

So ... after lurking here for a whole five minutes, I've decided to start a new juice company. Could someone send me some recipes that I can mix up and sell? Clones would be great but anything tasty and simple would be cool. Also, if you could build a shopping list for me, that would be super helpful. Also, I need some labels so anyone that knows how can make me something super kewl and awezome please do because I don't photoshop. I'm going to need some bottles too so someone send me links for that. And I'm going to need a website too so anyone that can build that for me that would be great. Any BM owners out there that want to carry my juice line just let me know and we can talk money. Oh and who has the best nicotine? Thanks everyone for your help. I'll be sure to spam this sub with my shopping list before I spend a dime as a big thank you to everyone !!

Oh then let me share some sage advice I've learned from this sub:

  • You don't use a scale to mix? Nobody uses syringes, that 5ml mark on yours is actually 2 liters and you'll be washing things for hours, you pathetic loser.
  • Anything with more than 10% flavoring is ridiculous and you haven't a clue what you're doing.
  • When asked for a recipe for something simple like Apple Pie. provide a recipe with more than 12 ingredients from 4 different flavor manufacturers. Don't use Apple Pie flavor, only losers do that.
  • Taste is not subjective. All juice tastes the same regardless of if your using a tank or dripper or regardless of ratio.
  • You do single flavors? Your juice is shit unless it has a minimum of 16 flavors, most at <1%. But that can break the 10% rule so you're basically a loser to begin with.

10/10 well done would read again!

Edit: Everyone should start a juice company! My favorite parts of running a juice company is when someone takes a /r/DIY_eJuice recipe and passes it off as their own, the self-proclaimed reviewers who demand free juice, and the fake B&Ms who want free samples.

> Commercial posts are discouraged- Vendors please post to /r/ecig_vendors

Uh, sorry mate, I know you are a big shot ejuice vendor, but you can't just come in here with your Level 1 (Commercial Concentrates) mixing, no-one is going to take you seriously until you reach the Level 5 (Only aroma molecules) Deeper DIY master-race.

I'm very triggered right now.

You forgot one.

The people that throw it in a bottle and put someone else's name on it.

But yea, the fake B&Ms. My favorite was that I got an email from a "store" who didn't realize that if you use gmail (which we do on the backend for our corporate email), it will link your G+ profile. I took a look and it was filled with posts from the guy talking about scamming manufacturers out of free juice by pretending to be a B&M. I didn't know if I should laugh at him, or the people that sent him product without checking.

I've got this great recipe you should try, I call it Bacon Butthole:

100mg nic

10% TFA Bacon

3.14% Actual bacon grease

2.2975% (Has to be exact) Tears from a mexican midget, preferably named Alberto

3 pubic hairs ( you don't vape these just let them rest in the bottle for some extra flavor a la the worm in a tequila bottle)

4 points

100mg? What if I want throat hit?

2 points
 
by AllDIYFlavorsover 10 years ago

Well you did forget the butt juice. I mean it is named Bacon Butthole right? People need to know the secret to this juice is jamming a baster so far up your ass you feel it just below your throat, squeeze the bubble thingy and let go so you can draw in all that ass juice, remove baster and deposit contents into the juice.

by returnityover 10 years agoMixologist

I dunno, 33% each seems a little low. I really want my flavor to pop, so I'm gonna boost it to 50%:50%:50% just to be on the safe side. I know Bombiez has a lot of flavor so I need more if my clone is gonna chuck tits.

How I read this. "Hey so I want to start a business and I not really keen on doing my own research and not digging the idea of actual work. So if you all could do all of the leg work for me thad be great."

it isn't raisin flavor, he puts real raisins in there to steep.

Careful now, some idiot is going to put their batch in a mason jar full of raisins to steep. And then he's going to vape it, or worse... Sell it to someone to vape.

by Aggressor-kunover 10 years ago

for best flavor you need only 100% pg lines and tell everyone it's max vg. Then if that does not work, you could sell it as sex lube. have you read a lube bottle 10/10

I'll be starting on your label design immediately. I'll be sure to submit it to you so you can demand a compete redesign with your horrible ideas after I've spent untold hours slaving on it for free.

Free? You're a cheapskate. I'm offering to pay him $50 to let me work on his fantastic idea.

You will never believe the flavor idea he invented: STRAWBERRY CREAM.

by robpbbover 10 years ago

So I think it's admirable that you are going to start a juice company. However asking for recipes and clones kinda makes it that you are making money off of other people's hard work. I recommend doing some searching, do some testing on your own and share some samples with friends. It's like asking people of this sub to buy the food, cook it and serve it to you but they aren't welcome to join you to eat. Just my 2 cents.

*Edit just saw the user name and realized this is a joke. Good for a laugh but it seems like some people are actually serious about this (reminds me of a thread I read where a guy was pissed at MBV for not sharing their recipe percentages with him. Go figure)

Your putting yourself out for venders, yet you have not made any juice yet? And your going to make money off of our clones and recipes? It can take MONTHS to get one perfect clone. Sorry but you kinda came off as a dick in this post. This sub is for DIYers that want to exchange tips and tricks, not for people who don't know DIY to cash in on other people's work.

by FookinSarcasmover 10 years ago

Interesting that 11 days ago you didn't know how to make your juice taste "premium" but you are now an expert at months of work on "OUR CLONES! Nice way to take ownership of the community's work there bud. Maybe if you took the time to read the thread you would understand the point of the post.

1 points
 
by Turnspots1about 10 years ago

I got it, it was a joke. I jumped the gun because I thought it was a serious post. Im sorry. In regards to my post you mentioned; in retrospect, the wording I used did not convey the question/topic I wanted to discuss. I was curious to know what premium ejuice companies did to enable the business to brand their product as "premium". ie. Do they use common flavor extracts that are common among the DIY community? (TPA, FA, LA, etc.) Do they make their own flavor extracts? Do they use other ingredients that are not common in the DIY community? If so, what do they use? Sorry for the lack explanation in that post. I will be the first one to tell you, I am no expert on DIY Ejuice, nor would I ever take ownership of this community's clones or original recipes. I respect everyone in the DIY community and their creations. This thread is about sharing tips and tricks to achieve 1 common goal... Staying off the cigs. I have been creating my own Ejuice for about 5 months now, and some of my favorite creations have taken 1-3 months to perfect to my preference. It's interesting you mentioned my post about premium Ejuice, as I posted it, knowing I would be having more free time coming up within the next 3 weeks. I just wanted more suggestions on how to improve my Ejuice as much as I can. I dont mean to speak for the DIY community, but I think that looking for ways to improve our Ejuice is something we can all respect. After all, thats why were on this sub right? I respect everyone in this community, and I think it's amazing what we are doing. Sorry for the long response, but I just wanted to let you know what my thought process was, and what im all about. I apologize for jumping the gun on your post. Frankly, once I understood the post, I thought it was pretty funny! Sorry again, have a good one!

You sound too eager to make money over quality juice, start making it for yourself and friends. Work your way up and have some solid flavors. I have seen alot of "companies" flop because of exactly what you're doing here. No one is going to do all the work for you.
