I use the mixer mainly to save time, and my arm. I mix 30 mls in a 50ml glass beaker. I use the metal mixer shown on the right in the previous pic. I'll mix for approximately 15-20 seconds, pour into the bottle, then let any tiny air bubbles settle out before capping tightly and putting away. I have probably 6 different liquids I mix for myself, and 4 for the wife, and 2 for the DIL, so this saves a lot of wear and tear on my arm from all that shaking I used to do.
Also, all our liquids have a 30ml bottle waiting, and ready to go when the bottle we are working on is finished. Hope all this makes sense.![]()
Makes sense to me. I wish I had a stirring stick like that when I was mixing 1L of VG and 1L of 100mg VG in a 2L erlenmeyer flask. I hoped the stir plate would do it but it was too thick.
But for the 30ml I don't mind a quick shake and an hour in the ultrasonic, then a quick shake every time I think of it until it has steeped enough.
After 3 weeks my TFA Tiramisu 2%, TFA Sweet Cream 1% is pretty good with my morning coffee. The Caramel Cappuccino 1%, Sweet Cream 2% was still very bad at 2 weeks so I added some Irish Cream, it's OK at 3 weeks but next time it will get 1% Sweet Cream or no Sweet Cream. That stuff took the burnt of the CaraCapp and made it like burning rubber.
