Drip or Drop? There is a Difference!
November 11, 2013
EO Basics!
A quick FYI post to show you that there is indeed a difference between dripping and dropping when making blends. Either method is fine, just be consistent with one or the other. However, one of these methods is preferred over the other, I'll show you why...
Have you ever made blends and ended up scratching your head because the level of oil in your bottle is different every time? The drip/drop choice might be why. When blending, use a glass dropper with every oil for consistency. As you can see in the photo, there's generally a 50% difference between dripping and dropping.
Dripping
straight from the bottle's drip orifice will give you a larger, less consistent recipe.
{We've all had the frustration of watching EOs drip too fast or too slow from the bottle...argh!}
Dropping
using a glass dropper will give you a truer recipe (CW recipes).
by the way...
It's not necessary to put a dropper on every bottle of EO you own, wash droppers and bottles in hot, soapy water between use!
