Weighing essentials oils

[Cattleyabubbles]

I want to begin marketing specific carriers oils to help a women's group. How do you weigh out carrier oils or essential oils? Is there a particular digital scale I can utilize that will weigh the oil as I pour it into various size containers I'm going to be offering? I don't know how to weigh out the oils since this information needs to be properly displayed on the product's labels. Thanks for your help.

You can get a scale pretty inexpensively at a local store, or online, or I imagine you could even use a pyrex measuring cup used mostly for cooking. Measure out the oz on there, although it would be by volume, not by weight...

Depending on the weight that you need for each oil, get a scale that measures to 1/10 of an oz. If you need smaller weight, get a jeweler's scale. Either way, you tare your container first, then pour, so you get an accurate measurement. I always go by weight.

I have had this scale for years.... it's cheap and I LOVE it.
