of course homebrewing is cheaper and easier for me, but like chemo said, you are forgetting bottle, labeling cots, graphics cost etc.
Also there is the time I spend mixing this as well as all the combos I tried out first that didnt work, pouring it into bottles, etc. Doing powder is easy, I measure out 100- 1 grams pouches and there you go. When it is time to package an order, you drop however many pouches have been ordered in a bag and you mail it. quick and easy.
When oral solutions are ordered, you have to wrap them in bubble wrap, tape up the bottle, make the box, tape the box, package the bottle, tape the box shut. There is a huge difference in time between the two.
I thought the beta price was good and i also didnt want to raise the price to much after the tabs are done. there will be just more tabs in a bottle at the same price give or take. But I do both for those people who dont want to bother with homebrewing and for those who like it. I also sell them all in 1gram pouches so no one needs to buy a scale to homebrew. I try to make it as easy as possible for whatever you need.
