We present a highly efficient method for the numerical solution of coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations describing the evolution dynamics of a multispecies mixture of Bose-Einstein condensates in time-dependent potentials. This method, based on a grid-scaling technique, compares favorably to a more standard but much more computationally expensive solution based on a frozen-resolution grid. It allows an accurate description of the long-time behavior of interacting, multi-species quantum mixtures including the challenging problem of long free expansions relevant for microgravity and space experiments. We demonstrate a successful comparison to experimental measurements of a binary Rb-K mixture recently performed with the payload of a sounding rocket experiment.
