In the previous issue, we explored the rise of the bottled e-liquid trend, where ZINWI Biotech broke boundaries with its "E-liquid & Device Symbiosis" philosophy, precisely matching e-liquids with devices to unlock the ultimate flavor experience.
This time, we turn our focus to the commercial transformation of DIY bottled e-liquids.
Player Economy: How DIY Culture Spurs a New Consumer Market?
DIY e-liquids have completed a four-stage leap—"open-source → rise → breakout → commercialization"—over a decade, making personalized taste accessible to all.
A.2010: Open-Source Era
Early vaping communities (e.g., ECF Forum) formed the first "open-source e-liquid" ecosystem.
-Enthusiasts used cake flavorings and pharmaceutical-grade PG/VG for homemade "DIY alchemy" in their kitchens.
-Some even repurposed yogurt makers for temperature-controlled mixing.
B.2014: The Rise
Specialized platforms like Wizard Labs and Bull City Flavors emerged.
-Launched "Beginner Kits" with lab-grade PG/VG, nicotine solutions, and hundreds of flavor concentrates.
-Developed mixing calculator tools to simplify DIY blending.
C.2015-2019: Breaking into Pop Culture
DIY e-liquids became part of trend culture.
-Global mixing competitions (e.g., Mix Off) showcased creativity.
-Music festivals featured "custom e-liquid" booths.
-TV shows and games (Mr. Robot, Blade Runner) incorporated DIY vaping themes.
-Influencer reviews fueled the "mixology" craze.
D.2019-Present: Commercialization
DIY e-liquids went mainstream, diversifying commercial experiences.
-Brands launched pre-mixed DIY bottled e-liquid kits (pre-blended base + flavor shots).
-Smart mixers with Bluetooth-connected apps automated the process.
-DIY workshops & experience stores allowed on-site flavor customization.
