Instant Alchemy (Ex): At 18th level, an alchemist can create alchemical items with almost supernatural speed. He can create any alchemical item as a full-round action if he succeeds at the Craft (alchemy) check and has the appropriate resources at hand to fund the creation. He can apply poison to a weapon as an immediate action.
What, one item a round isn't enough for you?
Anyway, by 18th level this alchemist is nearly a god anyway, so he's doubtless got better things to do than make 2880 alchemical items per 8 hour work day (at 1/3 cost). It's far more rational as a mid-adventure gimmick to make just the right item he needs at the time rather than lug around a few of everything.

1/6 seconds = 10/minute = 600/hour = 4800 in 8 hours. Providing he has the bags of stuff right there to make it all. At 1/3 cost, 100 gp each item, that is 480,000 gp worth of items in a day (cost: 160,000). Which is... enough to sell in 4-5 MAJOR CITIES for an entire year (give or take). Or are you planning on throwing 4800 alchemical fires/whatever at the castle? 8 hours of throwing later you are TIRED. lol.
