Bottles

What are bottles used for?

Bottles are essential tools for storing, mixing and handling liquids in a wide range of applications. They are commonly used in DIY mixing environments, but also in food-related projects, aroma work and other situations where controlled storage and precise handling of liquids are required.

Choosing the right bottle helps ensure accuracy, cleanliness and long-term stability of the contents. Bottle size, material and closure type all play an important role depending on how the liquid is used.

Bottles for mixing and storage

In DIY mixing, bottles are used both for preparing mixtures and for storing finished liquids. During mixing, bottles allow ingredients to be combined and shaken evenly. For storage, they help protect the contents from contamination, oxidation and leakage.

Bottles used together with concentrates or one shot aromas should be clean, properly sealed and suitable for repeated handling.

Different bottle sizes

Bottles are available in multiple sizes, ranging from small volumes intended for test batches to larger bottles suitable for storing finished mixtures. Smaller bottles are often used when experimenting or working with precise measurements, while larger bottles are practical for storing larger quantities.

Selecting the correct size helps reduce waste and improves consistency when repeating a mix.

Bottle materials and design

Most bottles used for liquid handling are made from plastic materials designed to be lightweight, durable and resistant to leakage. Features such as narrow tips, wide openings or graduated markings can make filling and measuring easier depending on the task.

Some bottles are designed specifically for dispensing small amounts accurately, while others are better suited for storage and transport.

Use beyond DIY mixing

Although bottles are frequently used in DIY e-liquid mixing, they are also widely used in other contexts. These include storing flavor concentrates, preparing beverage mixes, handling aroma solutions and organizing liquids for hobbyist or technical projects.

Suitability depends on the specific bottle design and the intended use.

Handling and storage

Bottles should always be cleaned before first use and sealed properly after filling. When stored correctly, bottles help preserve the quality of the contents and reduce the risk of spills or contamination.

For accurate filling and dosing, bottles are often used together with tools from the measuring tools category.
