Guest guest Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 I can only suggest to do a search for one... I don't have one... but I doubt if a press will filter out the powder....when I strain tinctures made with powders much comes thru but some doesn't... I figure it's a better tinc with the powder in it... I just shake and take... Suzi Rob Combis <rcombis wrote: Where can I get a press for making tinctures? Also if I have a powdered form of an herb can I make a tincture out of it? Will the press filter the powder out?

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 Forgot to mention that I use a blender to mix all my herbs together first.. then let them "ferment" and then strain, etc..

Marilyn is picking up some echinacea today. We ran out yesterday. I was thinking of some lemon balm, maybe some yarrow. For the diarrhea, we are just taking a strong infusion of my special "tummy tea", with a little stevia for Travis. MAN that stuff is sweet!!! Just a little pinch will do ya!. Anyway, I agree about the TT and cayanne!! And the salsa, of course (which I am laying off of till this is over). Maybe that is why Marilyn isn't catching it.
