Im a sinner (read : holo-chef) and i made one single batch of Vasarian with my old doc stuff i had (all oq/pe/fl over 890-950)
Stats are as follow :
Bonus : 415 mind/will/focus
Duration : 36 minutes
Charges : 21
How would you sell a crate of 25 for ?
As a reference, im from the Kauri server. Thanks.
(PS : This will be my only post in here before i head to Architect grind 
)
)(PPS : Chef is really cool profession, lots of different stuff to make, even if i quite "grinded" trought it )

Due to more competition and mainly 'not wanting to rip off customers' I sell Crates of 21 use, +372 53m30s and +403 47m30 duration BE Brandy for $190K. There are many factors involved though, how much do you pay for additives, your other resources and how much do you value your own time. It's all a matter of working out the actual cost per crate/time to make and then find a profit you and your customers are happy with.
Not selling much? Lower prices or try to make stats better suited for your customers needs/wants. Selling like hot cakes, might be time to put prices higher if you don't want to p*ss people off.

You should change your duration though, 36 minutes is just too low back the buff off a bit.

I calculated my cost of materials assuming you are using casks, since barrels are broken, and you are using addatives to get your stats up. My cost per cask is around 2500 credits. You process a crate of 25 and you can consider your cost per crate to be about 62,500. That's not counting time, fees for your house, place of business or vendor. Just raw materials needed to craft.
Break your crates up into crates of 5.
Cost per crate of 5 is 12,500
Multiply that by three and you have a pretty fair and competitive price of 37,500.
Ok, put that price into perspective.
An average doctor buff costs 6000 credits for a 6 pack. Thats 1000 credits per stat (Health, constitution, etc.)
At the brandy price of 37,500 per crate of 5, the average cost of a 1.5 hour mind buff is 1440. That's 480 credits per stat. That means your paying 1/2 the price for a mind buff. The logic for that number is explained below.
---- How I got 480 credits per mind stat buff ----
Lets say you pay 37500 for a crate of 5 brandys with 21 uses each. That's 105 units. Cost per unit then is a around 357 credits. Lets just say 360 to keep the numbers even. Usually you will consume 2 at a time, at least I do when I'm fighting. You'll probably do that twice during the time your other stats are buffed. So assume that the cost for a mind buff that lasts as long as your other enhancements is 4*360 or 1440 credits.
That 1440 credits buffs 3 stats at once. Divide that by three and you get 480 credits per stat.
