hi, thank you for your video and explanation. I have a question. You used a ratio of 1 to 5, but if you pour, let's say, 500 ml of solvent, you end up with 350 ml of the final product. so with that amount the ratio is still considered 1 to 5? or can we add 150 ml of destiled water to make up for that gap? I've done this by adding the 150ml of destiled water to the plant material to help the rest of the solvent to go trhough is this ok or what would you recomend?
@JoanMoraisCosmeticsSchool
Жыл бұрын
Hello, the ratio is for the starting material. Plus it's using a lower proof alcohol, 100 proof. If you want to add distilled water then you would need to use a higher proof alcohol, 190 proof.

I believe I have the same question as @ricardogarcia7683 - I think its more of a question of what the POTENCY is of the finished product. If you don't end up yielding 100% of the menstrum volume (the 5 parts used). This has ben the case with me. I will use lets say 240ml of solvant but may only get 100ml of final ticture. So what would the strength be calculated based off of? The original ratio or the herb weight to final tincture volume ratio?

As far as I understand, it would make sense that if you had 100G of herb and you used 500ml solvent you have a 1:5 ratio, then I’d reduce it down to 100ml extract. Then say a dose is of the dry herb is 5G, you could take 5ml as a dose and it should translate across. If you reduce it to 50ml and you started with 100G herb, then you have a double strength 2:1 ratio extract and would need only half a dose.

Hi, thank you for the great video, after the ethanol is filtered and the final liquid remains, what percentage of the final liquid is alcohol vs the extract/herb? I want to try and make my own Jagermeister of sorts :-) so I want to try and make an alcohol drink using the method ie a liqueur... what would I do, just drink your final filtered liquid as is? or then add more ethanal to the final filtered liquid? thanks so much for your insight, I'm a complete novice...

You can do the Mason jar method too. It's just another way. The alchohol acts as a solvent to wash the oils off the plant. You probably already know this by now. Pay attention to ratios as well. Good luck!😃

I truly admire you. However, I have a question: I like essential oil's e.g., lavender. Citrus like orange, tea tree , oregano, & other flowers. Their flash point temperatures for herb & flower are very low like 90°F - to - 130°F. For example if I were soak these citrus skins or lavender plant(s) first separately inside a plant milk bag immersed in drinking liquor is this feasible? For Example -- a drinking liquor of about 40 or 60 proof. Raw material -- Not exposed soaking already filtered in a plant milk bag sitting in the liquor in the plant milk bag? Is that feasible?? Could I then transfer it to a temperature controlled water distiller boiling temperature very low. Would this work? Also, it is awesome using a mug warmer, To finish alcohol evaporation - oil processing very nice. I just want to avoid self-injury. I prefer distilling food grade Drinking alcohols because after distilling I could still drink it. Will my idea work?

This makes an alcohol extract, a tincture. Essential oils are different than alcohol extracts. They perform differently. I would think the remaining botanical would be spent from the distillation of the essential oil and no good to use to make a tincture.

It all depends on the size of the funnel. 100 grams of herb is used when using a 1.5 liter wine bottle or other funnel (percolator). This funnel (percolator) is only 250 ml. Herbalists use a smaller funnel to make smaller amounts when they don’t want a large batch of tincture.
