EXTRACTS OF HERBS

[Guest guest]

Dear Steve,

This is the information I have on Herbal Extracts. I have not made

many as I prefer either teas or Tinctures...........Love Penny

HERBAL EXTRACT

This is the strongest concentrate Formula: 16 oz of distilled water to 4

oz

of herbs. Soak herbs 4 hours or more, then simmer on very low heat in

covered saucepan or double boiler for 30 minutes. Strain decoction into

uncovered clean pan and simmer down to 1/4 of the original amount. The

end

result should be 4 oz of extract. Keep refrigerated or use natural

anti-oxidants like vegetable glycerine, or a few drops of alcohol, for

example.
