There’s no doubt that using this scale is a pleasure. As I’ve hinted to, I dislike small pocket sized scales as there’s little substance, and I find this larger type to be far more flexible. They happen to make excellent kitchen scales too.
The positives far out way any negatives, but having said that, it should be noted that scales are best when mixing in larger batches. If one is primarily mixing 2 or 3 of 10 ml or even 30 ml bottles per week, a set of scales may not be necessary. However, there’s no denying that using a scale offers accuracy, consistency and of equal importance, confidence in your recipes.
Switching from mixing by volume to weight is simple, once you’ve determined and or set a weight for your PG, VG, Flavours and Nicotine. Shortly, I’ll be posting a ‘how to’ guide for mixing by weight, and will update this post with a link.
In closing, I wish to again thank Tom at Juice Factory for sending me this product to review. The scales will be available to purchase as of October 13.
Juice Factory carry a huge range of flavour concentrates, as well as all the necessary DIY supplies.
For those debating the purchase of scales, have a snoop around on some of the more respected DIY forums, such as e-Liquid- recipes.com. I think you’ll feel confident in choosing this particular model. They’re great scales..
