Does anyone buy bulk, make "stock solutions" and then dilute to proper amounts?

Sorry if this is silly. I'm really new to this, and I'm looking to buy bulk to save costs. Are there certain beginner nootropics that'll be stable in solution for a long time (i.e. caffeine, L-theanine, piracetams, etc.)?
Technically, as long as you can do some chemistry (i.e. M1V1 = M2V2), this should work if the compounds don't degrade right?
I was thinking I could just pour aliquots of L-Theanine into my cup of coffee in the morning lol.

It depends on the compounds, the solvents, the temperatures, the pH, etc. Our L-theanine solution is stable just as long as the powder would be. Plus, our large bottles are pumpkin flavored, and mix well with coffee. I just had some a few minutes ago. Mmmm pumpkin!
