anyone mix their own supplements?

[Derekcerva]

Im mixing something up to put it in capsules, are most powders generally similar in weights? Im asking in terms of mixing different supplements. Will whisking and/or shaking them together suffice or is there some much more difficult method? (Mixing caffeine, yohimbine, ecgc, and a few other things)Thanks in advance

I will go out on a limb here and say no they really don't. I could be wrong. Only reason I am saying no is because of the dose you're planning on using for each powder. Could be very potent and worth caution.

when i made my own mixes i'd either cap each ingredient(even with the cap-n-quick this got tedious and I no longer do it) on its own or if they aren't hard to mask the taste like caffeine i just keep the powder in its package and scoop out what I need and add it to a preworkout or just use those squeeze water flavor things to mask the taste. Citrus sweeteners work well for masking even some of the worst tasting powders.

non stim stuff would be safer i assume ecgc/carnitine blah blah non stim stuff

i used to buy a lot of bulk supplements and cap them but after how much of a hassle it is and how time consuming it turned out i don't do it anymore.. i'd just get tiny scoopers that are measured out and each time you make the mix scoop the powder into a drink and just drink it up.. works fine and is a LOT less of a pain in the ass

thanks, I'm mainly asking because I'm trying to put a product together that I can market to friends and aquaitances, doing a trial to see if it works for them, and most people prefer the capsule thing

i see.. well to get an accurate mix you'd need a powder mixer which is a very expensive machine.. capping each one individually by hand would be a nightmare if you are doing it alone.. you could use tiny ziplocks for a single serving and put each ingredient in there and tell them to mix it with juice or something with a strong flavor to mask the powders taste...
