Perpetua style. Not recommended for new mixers! Splosh of this, dash of that, fill to here with a pour or two. Top up with another thing. Job done! Easy as that and no ill affects. Pretty quick too. Been mixing at100mls for years so know how I like it

If mixing for myself, I measure approximate nic & flavour with a syringe (that currently has no markings!) into a bottle of 'suspected' known volume. Then top the bottle up with VG and PG by eye... job done.  [ETA] If mixing for someone else, it's a new syringe (with markings!) and all components measured.

I just go by weight pour everything straight from the bottles mix up 250ml at a time. I don't play about trying new flavours and stuff these days been vaping the same thing for nearly 3 years straight.

My 1st dabble was with measures some 7years ago then after a few trials and errors i went down the weight method..so much easier...especially with eliquid site and saving recipes etc

I use scales as I mix in grams, then I pour the ingredients directly into a dedicated blender jug as I use a blender to mix my liquids. I tend to mix 2 litres at time for me and my partner

Use small measuring cylinders for the nic and flavours; put them in a big (200m) measuring cylinder and top up with the VG/PG as required. Make 190m batches at a time. Not bothered if the VG/PG is a bit out.

2 x 500 ml measuring cylinders into a 5 ltr plastic jerry can for flavoured 0 nic + 330 ml brown glass bottles of flavoured 50 mg/ml nic, then easy to mix these to any strength which I normally do that about 5 times a year. Absolute max washing up my 2 measuring cylinders 6 times a year, can't be doing with extra washing up.

Absolute max washing up my 2 measuring cylinders 6 times a year, can't be doing with extra washing up. I totally get that  I use 1x pyrex 500ml jug and 1x small plastic medicine measuring cup marked in 2.5ml increments - that's the washing up tally for each 300ml juice mixed, and I usually do 1500ml at a time (300ml x 3 flavours for Mrs.G-J and 600ml of mine) in a session. Method - measure nic base, flavouring with measuring cup, put in jug and add the PG & VG by eye using markings on jug, mix with electric frothy coffee mixer, pour into 300ml bottle and shake for a few minutes
