Solid list of essentials. But unless you're Michael J Fox I think the gloves are unnecessary.

I like to mix into 50, 100 or 200 ml griffin beakers. It is a PITA trying to drop the bases and concentrates directly into bottles with small openings. The beakers have pour spouts that make it easy to fill bottles.

I also use a frother for a few seconds before pouring the mix into the bottles.

I don't bother with pipettes. A good number of the flavors I purchased already came in 30 mL plastic dropper bottles (the same kind we use to mix juice in), but for the ones which came in glass containers without a dropper cap, I bought a bunch of 30 mL "unicorn" bottles (the smaller diameter means less space used on my mixing desk). For the ingredients I use enough to warrant purchasing 120 mL bottles of, they came in bottles with just a screw cap, so I just fill up a 30 mL bottle to mix with, and refill as needed. Since everything is either in a plastic dropper bottle or a glass bottle with dropper cap, I don't need to use pipettes.

My nicotine is stored in the freezer, and I take out 10 mL at a time, which goes into a 10 mL plastic dropper bottle. 10 mL of 100 mg/mL nicotine is enough for about month of mixing at 2 mg/mL (I go through anywhere from 5–30 mL a day, averaging around 15 mL).

My scale is the standard AWS LB-501. I don't bother with the white bowl and use it on battery power. This means that it does shut itself off after (I think) two minutes, but this has never bit me in the ass. A few times it would turn off while I was searching for the next ingredient to add, but since the auto shut-off is only triggered if the measured weight does not change, it won't turn off while you are in the middle of measuring out a single ingredient.

I buy VG by the gallon, and for mixing I pour it into 120 mL plastic squeeze bottles. I picked up a dozen off of Amazon, and use the extras to make 120 mL batches of juices which I go through quickly. But the vast majority of the time I mix 30 mL batches in plastic dropper bottles.

I do also have a good supply of smaller bottles as well. For testing single flavors, I use 5 mL bottles. For new recipes that I develop, I use either 10 mL or 15 mL bottles. If the recipe uses all of its flavors at 1% or higher concentrations, they get mixed in 10 mL bottles. If there are flavors at less than 1%, they get mixed in 15 mL bottles, since my scale doesn't give consistent results for very small amounts (less than 0.1 g).

Gloves are recommended but I don't use them, even though I mix with 100 mg/mL nicotine. I am very careful when mixing, but the few times where I have spilled a bit of concentrated nicotine, I just clean it up then immediately wash my hands. Nicotine does get absorbed through the skin, but it doesn't happen instantaneously -- having a drop or two spill on you won't do anything if you wash it off quickly.

Didn't they kick some one for saying that retarded sh** A couple weeks ago? Don't whatever you do or whoever you think you are (superman, batman, spiderman, wolverine,) ever use more than 100mg/ml nicotine. It's stupid and it's stupid for people to even mention it. Common sense goes a long way.
